MICROTEL Series 1000 Dialer

INTRODUCTION
hank you for choosing the Microtel Series 1000 Dialer to implement your remote
alarm monitoring solution. You have chosen a product that is simple to set up and
easy to use. The Series 1000 has been designed and manufactured to operate with
minimal operator intervention.
T
The Microtel Series 1000 features a single level, interactive command structure--there are
no multi-level menu structures to navigate. Commands are sent to the Series 1000
through your telephone either locally or during a call to or from the dialer, by pressing a
sequence of touch-tones on your telephone. Each command entered is acknowledged
with a spoken response from the dialer, providing verification that the command was
entered correctly and understood by the dialer.
The Series 1000 features true modularity--I/O channels operate completely independently
of each other. Using the commands listed in this manual, each I/O module in your dialer
can be configured to operate uniquely to satisfy your application requirements. For each
I/O channel, you may record a voice message, choose the format of spoken status reports,
program an alarm integration delay, alarm call out operation, and telephone number
calling sequence. Analog inputs also have user-selectable low and high alarm setpoints.
About this Manual : This manual is organized with the most crucial information in
the front; more advanced topics are saved for last or included in the appendices.
Who Should Read this Manual: Anyone involved with use of the dialer should
read the General Description and Operation chapters of the manual. The Operation
chapter in particular should be read by any personnel who may be required to respond to
alarm calls from the dialer. The additional chapters can be read at a later time, or when
necessary by authorized personnel to maintain the dialer or troubleshoot any problems
you might encounter. System administrators should read the Advanced Topics chapter
for information on the use of the dialer’s remote software configuration capabilities.
In a Hurry to Setup?: Read the quick start section of the Installation chapter.
