sure to call back within the programmed setting for Intercall Time—refer
to Chapter 4, Section 4.12.)
When the Model 400 answers your return call, it announces the alarm.
Then it says: “Alarm Acknowledged.” This indicates that the alarm has been
acknowledged.
NOTE: If you have the TAD feature ( telephone answering device)
enabled, call the unit and let the phone ring once, then hang up. Wait a
few seconds then call the unit back a second time. The model 400 will
now answer on the first ring. If TAD is disabled, the telephone must be
allowed to ring 10 times. This serves as a precaution against a random
alarm acknowledgment. Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.7, for complete
information on using the TAD feature.
6 .2 StatuS report
The Status Report allows access to complete information on all monitored
conditions either locally, from the keypad, or by telephone, from any loca-
tion. The Model 400 will answer an incoming telephone call following the
programmed Rings Until Answer (refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.6). Included
with the Status Report are messages related to alarm conditions, AC power,
battery backup and sound level. It also provides an opportunity for listen-
ing to on-site sounds (refer to Listen-in Time, Chapter 4, Section 4.8).
To initiate the Status Report:
1. Press WHAT IS.
WHAT
IS
2. Press STATUS.
STATUS
Sections 6.2.1, 6.2.2, and 6.2.3 demonstrate two different Status Report reci-
tations. The Status Report starts with:
“Hello. This is 555-1234 (or the programmed ID), (Custom ID Message).”
“It is now 12:15pm (or the current time).”
The Model 400 proceeds with a separate report for each zone. Each zone
identifies itself by reciting the zone number and it’s associated voice mes-
sage.
