The B1290 will not work the way you want it to until all three of the re-
quired parameters have been entered correctly, so if you hang up in the
middle of this procedure, the B1290 will take you back to the beginning of
the sequence the next time you come off hook.
Throughout the programming sequence, the unit will speak stored param-
eters using a prompt, followed by the word “is”, then the stored data. For
example, to tell you the Acknowledge Code is set to 1234, the B1290 says
Acknowledge Code is 1234. Input from the telephone’s keypad is expected
following this message. Whenever voice messages are required, the unit
will beep twice, prompting the user to speak into the telephone handset.
Site ID and Voice Alarm Messages
Plug any standard tone telephone into the jack labeled “PGM”.
Lift the handset to your ear. You will hear the B1290 speak the words Pro-
gram voice; site is followed by silence since there is no voice message pro-
grammed.
B1290: Program voice.
Site is...
The B1290 is prompting you to enter the name of the site. The name you
program will be announced at the start of every message along with the list
of alarms.
To record the voice message, enter the record code (2).

After you hit the second star, the B1290 will prompt you with a beep-beep
tone.
B1290: beep-beep
As soon as you hear the tone, you can begin to record your message. The
VOICE LED on the front panel will light while the B1290 is recording.
Speak the name of the site, e.g. Ajax Compressor Station. The B1290 detects
when you stop speaking and automatically plays back the message. Pauses
between words may cause the recording to terminate. The VOICE LED will
light while it is playing back.
YOU:
Ajax Compressor Station
B1290: Site is Ajax Compressor Station.
Did the message played back sound acceptable? If you think it could be im-
