DC-8 Plus Installation and Operation Manual
OPERATION
BUSY INPUT
The busy input allows a user to remotely disable the DC-8 Plus from answering a
call. By asserting this input low, no calls will be answered.
PAGER ALERT
The DC-8 Plus includes the ability to call up to THREE outside telephone (pager)
numbers in the event any or all status inputs go "LOW" for 2 seconds or longer. As
shown in the DC-8 Plus Command Grid, the Pager Alert function can be activated
or deactivated by entering 951 * (star), (turns on function), or 950 * (star) (turns off
function). The user may configure any or all of the eight status inputs to trigger a
pager alert, by inserting the desired status input numbers in program 954, i.e. 9541*
(star). (Status input one being asserted low will cause an alert.) In order to program
the first call out telephone number, enter 961, followed by the FIRST telephone
number to a digital pager or other service. Enter 962, followed by the SECOND
telephone number to a digital pager or other service. Enter 963, followed by the
THIRD telephone number to a digital pager or other service. Not all of the pager
need be entered. In the event you would like the call back number to be displayed
on a digital pager, enter 97, followed by the return (call back) number that will dis-
play on the pager. The DC-8 Plus will place as the FIRST digit, the FIRST STATUS
/ PAGER ALERT input that caused the ALERT. To provide added reliability, the
DC-8 Plus dials the pager number twice. If your Telephone Company provides
CALLER ID (ANI), this may be a simple way to replace the pager, when using the
pager alert.
NOTE:
Any programming (EXCEPT THE ACCESS CODES and DEFAULT
SETTINGS!!) can be performed either in LOCAL mode, (OPERATE/LOCAL
button depressed), or when connected via telephone. Please remember to
DISENGAGE the front panel OPERATE/LOCAL switch, when you are finished
programming the DC-8 Plus.
NOTE:
If the DC-8 Plus is left in LOCAL mode, the DC-8 Plus will not answer
incoming calls.
To hang up and return to the stand-by mode, either hang up or enter 99, followed by
the * (star) key.
DC-8 Plus COMMAND GRID
This manual has provided many programming and operational functions of the
Broadcast Tools DC-8 Plus Dial-Up Remote Control. By using the DC-8 Plus
Command Grid, additional programming and operation functions are available to
customize the DC-8 Plus to fit many needs. We hope that like many other users
of Broadcast Tools products, you too will encounter many years of reliable and
versatile use.
