ProTalk Cv2

1.  Getting Started

The Cv2 is a very flexible device capable of monitoring discrete or analog inputs and reporting
alarm conditions at these inputs.  It is also capable of controlling multiple outputs.  Before the
Cv2 is placed into service it must be programmed for the type of operation you require.

The Cv2 contains an embedded CDMA transceiver.  To activate the internal CDMA module,
you must do the following:

#

If you do not already have a network service account you will need to contact a desired
network service representative and setup an account.

#

For activation you will need to provide the ESN of the unit, the ‘home’ location where it
will be installed as well as a billing address and contact name.

#

Your network service representative will provide a 10 digit telephone number that you will
program into the unit.  

This can be done using the PC configuration software or a telephone set connected to the Cv2. 
To use the programming application install the software according to the instructions in section
4-1, connect the powered Cv2 to the computer with the cable provided then activate the
transceiver programming function by selecting Program/Cellphone from the menu.  Enter the 10
digit telephone number where shown and press the Store button to transfer the number into the
unit.

To program the mobile number with a telephone set, plug the set into the programming port of
the powered Cv2 and take the set off-hook.  The Cv2 will respond with “Enter Program Code”
when you take the set off-hook.  Follow this sequence:

You:

enter the digit 9

Cv2:

“ESN is 067 point 12345678"  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (unit speaks ESN)

You:

enter the digits **  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (advance to MIN)

Cv2:

“Mobile Number is 800 555 1212  . . . . . . . . . . . . . (unit speaks MIN)

You:

enter the digits 800 268 2646 **  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (change the MIN)

Cv2:

“Mobile Number is 800 268 2646"  . . . . . . . . . . . . (unit speaks new MIN)

You:

enter the digits **  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (accept the new MIN)
or re-enter the MIN and repeat the process

Cv2

“Enter Program Code” (unit returns to the main program menu)

You:

hangup - the number programming is completed

Read this manual carefully before proceeding with the installation and programming of the Cv2. 
There are two modes of operation available: Advanced and Basic.  In Basic mode multiple
Advanced functions are combined into a single Basic function for ease of programming.  When
the unit is configured for Basic operation, all of the variables that can be set by the PC during a
programming session can also be modified remotely by calling the unit with a TouchTone
telephone.  Advanced mode operation allows full use of all functions in the Cv2 but limits the
items that can be remotely modified. 

Basic mode eliminates the need to configure the Hardware Inputs, Groups and Points by
combining them into a single function called Alarms.  Similarly, the outputs are reduced to a
