6. Call Cancel—This feature determines whether or
not Express II will continue dialing out for an alarm
after the alarm has physically cleared.
When Call Cancel is enabled, Express II will stop
dialing out when the alarm clears, even if the alarm
has not yet been acknowledged. When Call Cancel is
disabled, Express II will continue dialing out for the
alarm until it receives acknowledgment, even if the
alarm clears in the meantime.

7. Auto Test—This feature allows you to simulate an
alarm on an input to test the dial out procedure. When
you call Auto Test, it will ask you to specify an input
number to test.

NOTE: Auto Test will make actual phone calls to the
Phone Contacts using the specifications you pro-
grammed. You must acknowledge the alarm as if it
were real.

Also, the Auto Test feature will not work if “Call
Cancel” is enabled (see #6 above).

8. Unit reset—Generally for factory use, the Unit
Reset feature will reset the various unit parameters
you’ve programmed in. Should you want to reset the
unit, enter a reset code of “159,” and press Enter.
Choose from Full Reset, Programming Reset, or Voice
Reset.

Note: only “Voice reset” offers options. Selecting the
other two will clear system parameters.

9. Unit configuration—The Unit Configuration menu
offers you three choices:

1 - RS232 Rate (default: 9600 baud): This is the baud
rate for the RS232 port to which you would connect a
printer. Its default setting is 9600 baud. You can reset it
in a range from 1200 to 38,400.
2 - Callback Rings (default: 10): As mentioned under
the “Callback Acknowledgment” section above, the
Express II will not answer your call to acknowledge an
alarm until the phone has rung ten times. This is the
default setting. If you wish, you can change that number
here.
3 - Ack over voice (default: disabled): This feature,
when activated, allows you to punch in a code number
of “555” while the unit is speaking to cut off the mes-
sage. This is a factory testing feature and in practice
is not a dependable override. Generally it should be
left disabled. (See Chapter 5: System, Acknowledgement
Code for more information on setting the code number.)
