number for fi ve attempts before re-trying. Select TROUBLE REPORTS ONLY TO
SUPERVISORY to have trouble reports routed to the supervisory number only
(don’t select this option if the page alert feature is being used).
☞ NOTE: This does not effect emergency reports which are always routed to
the primary or secondary telephone numbers.
PHONE NUMBERS
Telephone numbers can be up to 20 digits long. DO NOT enter any dashes
or spaces into the telephone number fi elds. The “#” symbol inserts a 1-second
delay, the “~” symbol inserts a 5-second delay.
☞ NOTE: If no telephone numbers are entered, the Console will not report.
✦ PRIMARY: Enter the correct telephone number to connect the Central Station
receiver.
✦ SECONDARY: Enter the correct backup telephone number to connect the
Central Station receiver.
✦ SUPERVISORY: For trouble reports: Enter the correct telephone number
to connect the Central Station receiver for supervisory reports.
For Page Alert: Enter the pager telephone number and the numerical
message (up to 20 digits total) into the SUPERVISORY area.
TIP: Call the pager number and measure the time between placing the call and the
prompt to key-in the pager message. Use this time measurement to choose the special
characters (# or ~) to insert a delay between the pager telephone number and pager
message. NOTE: Many pager companies require a pound sign (#) to end the message
(a pound sign at the end of the page alert message is treated as the # key, not is a delay)
Example with a 7-second delay and pound sign end: 5551234~##07734#
