z Reduced power operation DialStat

TM

’s already low power consumption can be

reduced 33% for installations providing minimal power, such as solar panels. To
enable reduced power mode enter the following command:

**054

Toggle normal/low power mode

Example- Command:

**054

Response:

Low power enabled.

Example- Command:

**054

Response:

Normal power enabled.

Each time the command is entered, the power mode toggles between normal / low power
modes. Visually, this is indicated by a reduced duty cycle of the four (4) ALARM
STATUS LEDs: in low-power mode, the LEDs flash very briefly once a second; in
normal mode the LEDs are mostly ON, but briefly flicker OFF once a second.

In addition to configuring the dialer to operate in low-power mode with this command,
power consumption can be reduced even more by de-energizing an unused local alarm
output.


Example- Command:

**061

Response:

The local output is open.

This will reduce current consumption of the dialer by an additional 10 milliamps. Use
this additional option if the local relay output is not being used as a summary alarm
output or to control external equipment.
