Test your system on a regular basis, at least once a week.
VIII) Operating Your System
You are now ready to begin operating your system, relying on the AD200-4 to work
in conjunction with your alarm system to provide 24-hour security reassurance and
peace of mind.
When in the operating mode, the system will monitor all the enabled channels,
initiating dialing when a valid alarm condition occurs. Upon activation the dialer
will begin calling each phone/pager number selected, in sequence, for the pre-
selected number of attempts. During each successful attempt, the voice message will
be delivered 1, 2, or 3 times, in accordance with the option selected (nume ric
messages will only be delivered one time). In unsuccessful attempts, the dialer will
move on to the next phone/pager number after receiving 8 busy or 8 rings without
an answer. The dialer will not allow voice messages to be delivered to programmed
numeric pager locations.
If you send a message to a phone attached to an answering machine, it will consider
this a successful attempt. Make sure you designate the maximum number of
message repeats to be sure that a complete message will be left on the answering
machine, because part or all of your emergency message may be “lost” while the
answering machine delivers its greeting message.
Placing your system in OPERATE can also be used as a final test of the full
functionality of each channel’s exit/entry delay, activation, momentary/continuous
trigger, phone numbers and OGM. Although serving as a test, this mode reflects
actual operation; therefore the OGM(s) will not be heard through your dialer’s
speaker but only by each party called.
To begin operating your system, simply press the “M” Mode key until the word
OPERATE appears on the LCD. To disarm the dialer, switch the mode to OFF by
pressing the same key. All programming information will be retained
a) System Notations
Here are a few explanations to help you better understand how your AD200-4
dialer operates. For specific information on the AD200-4 unit alone, call Global

b) Channel Activation
Each of the dialer’s four channels can be activated by any of the following: a
normally open dry contact, normally closed dry contact or positive 5-28VDC
voltage activation.
