MESSAGES [4]
Recording your own messages provides a valuable,
expeditious communication link between the Express
II and service personnel.
Voice messages—Express II allows you to program
your own voice for the ID (identification) and dial-out
alarm messages. This means that when Express II
calls you or someone on your staff during an alarm,
your personalized voice message will indicate exactly
which alarm condition exists. Depending on what the
input is monitoring, you might program a warning
message, or provide brief vital monitoring data.
The voice message choices are:
1 - Record ID Message (default length: 10 seconds)
2 - Record Input Message (default length: 5 seconds)
3 - Record Output Message (default length: 5 seconds)
4 - Message length
The ID Message allows you to identify the Express II
and/or the system it’s monitoring as the caller.
The Input Message is the alarm message
corresponding to each specific input that the Express
II is monitoring. You must program this by entering
the number of the Input (1–8 on the first card, etc.)to
identify it, and then recording the relevant alarm
message for it.
The Output Message feature can only be used if
you’ve purchased and installed an Output Card in the
Express II.
Message length—This parameter determines how
many seconds long each message can be. A message
can be 5, 7, or 11 seconds long. However, you can
cut any message short if you finish recording it, by
pressing [Enter].
(Note that the shorter the message length, the better
the quality of the recording. We recommend that you
program this parameter to 5 seconds for optimum
clarity.)
NOTE: Do not change the message length param-
eter after you have recorded voice messages. If
you do so, you will automatically erase all pro-
grammed voice messages and reset them to the
default.
