INTERCALL TIME
The Intercall Time is the programmable period of time the 1800
waits between making alarm phone calls. Intercall Time is activated
only after alarm dial-out to the first telephone number fails to be
acknowledged. This period can be programmed from 10 seconds to
60 minutes. The default Intercall Time is 30 seconds.
TIP: When the 1800 is programmed to make calls
to pagers, make sure the intercall delay time is long
enough to give the person carrying the pager some
time to get to a phone to call the unit back.
If an incoming telephone call is received by 1800 during the
Intercall Time (in between dialing of subsequent telephone
numbers to report an alarm), it will answer the incoming call and
immediately report any existing alarms. The manner in which the
incoming call is answered depends upon whether or not TAD is
enabled or disabled:
If TAD is disabled (default), Rings Until Answer will be the
programmed number of rings.
If TAD (Telephone Answering Device) is enabled, Rings Until
Answer will be 1.
To program intercall time:
1. Press the SET key.
2. Press the INTERCALL TIME key.
The 1800 will say “Enter minutes.”
