The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to
the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices
not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of
the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that
may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the
telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.

Before connecting the control panel to the public switched telephone network, the

Note: This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the

Alarm dialing equipment must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an
emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other equipment (telephone,
answering system, computer modem, etc.) already has the telephone line in use. To do
so, alarm dialing equipment must be connected to a properly installed RJ31X jack that
is electrically in series with and ahead of all other equipment attached to the same
telephone line. If there are any questions concerning these instructions, consult the
telephone company or a qualified installer about installing the RJ31X jack and alarm
dialing equipment. Refer to Figure 2.6 on page 17 for an illustration of the proper
installation of this equipment.
Important! The DACT-UD2 must not be used to dial a phone number that is call-
forwarded.
