SOUND [6]
Express II allows you to listen to sound levels
through its built-in microphone when you call in for
a status report. Express II also monitors the sound
levels through its built-in microphone. When the
current sound level suddenly exceeds the normal
sound level, Express II can be programmed to dial
out with a high sound alarm.
1. Listen-in Time—The listen-in time is the amount
of time you can listen to sounds at the microphone
site when you call in for a status report. The
programming range is from 0 to 255 seconds. The
default time is
15 seconds.
2. Enable/disable Sound Monitoring—This
parameter determines whether Express II will initiate
the dial out sequence if it detects a high sound. If
the sound is enabled, Express II will dial out. If the
sound is disabled, Express II will not dial out for
high sound. 1 = enabled; 0 = disabled. The default is
enabled.
3. Sound Sensitivity—This parameter allows you
to change the sensitivity of the sound monitoring.
This may be useful to desensitize Express II if it is
installed in an area with relatively high sound level,
or where loud noises occur but are not associated
with an alarm. Also, this feature allows you to
increase sensitivity in situations where you want to
monitor lower sound levels. The sensitivity range
for sound alarm monitoring is 1 to 100. A value of 1
is the most sensitive; 100 is the least sensitive. The
default is
50.
4. Sound Recognition Time—The sound recognition
time is the length of time that a high sound condition
must exist continuously before Express II will
recognize the condition. If the high sound stops
before the recognition time is up, it is not recognized
as a valid alarm. Express II will not dial out. This
feature is useful to prevent dial outs for momentary
occurrences of high sound. You may program the
recognition time from 2 seconds to 1 minute. The
default is
8 seconds.
