4286 VIP Module Installation and Setup Guide
1-2
When connected, the 4286 VIP Module will enable the user to do the follow-
ing via any Touch-tone telephone:
1.
Receive synthesized voice messages over the phone regarding the
status of the security system.
2.
Arm and disarm the security system and perform most other com-
mands using the telephone keypad, with voice annunciation being
provided as confirmation after any command is entered.
3.
Turn certain lights/appliances on and off via the telephone using the
Relay Command Mode. This capability is possible only with the 4286
VIP Module and with controls supporting the Relay Command Mode.
If the system has relays, but does not support the Relay Command Mode, they
still can be controlled via the phone (in same way as from a wired keypad), but
no voice feedback will occur.
The on-premises phone system need not have Touch-tone service, but the
phone used for security system access must have Touch-tone capability.
Switchable phones should be set for Touch-tone temporarily before attempt-
ing phone access. However, an off-premises phone that does not have Touch-
tone service and uses pulses for dialing may not permit switching to Touch-
tone after dialing; in such a case, phone access from that phone will not be
possible.

Differences between the 4285 and 4286 VIP Module
The 4286 VIP Module offers increased capabilities when used with a control
that supports the 4285. These include:
•
Thermostat control (using 4500 thermostats). Temperature settings
can be adjusted and room temperature can be monitored from a touch
tone phone on or off the premises.
