3.14 Alarm Follower
The audio stations will sound alarm conditions along with the bell output of
the control panel. All stations will sound an alarm using Burglary and Fire
type tones. All Burglary alarms will sound a steady alarm output. All Fire
alarms will sound a pulsed alarm output.
3.15 Verbal Alarm Announcements
If you have installed an Escort4580 v1.3 on the system, when zones go into
alarm the Escort will announce the labels for those zones over the intercom
system. The alarm announcement will be as follows:
• an alarm tone
• verbal announcement of the first zone in alarm
• verbal announcement of the latest zone in alarm
• series repeats until alarms are silenced.
See section 4.6 “Verbal Alarm Options” on page 12 for more information.
3.16 Central Station Talk/Listen-in
When a Talk/Listen-in event occurs the PC4936 will seize the telephone line,
call the central station and initiate a talk/listen-in session. The PC4936 will
start a session of low-gain listen-in on the station closest to the zone in
alarm, or on all stations if the
CS Listen All
option is on (see 4.9 “Central
Station Talk/Listen-In” on page 13). When the central station operator
presses any key on the telephone a new session will begin.
If a Holdup, Panic or Duress alarm occurs, the operator will only be able to
listen-in, as the speakers will not be turned on. See 4.9 “Central Station
Talk/Listen-In” on page 13 for information on programming which events
will trigger a Talk/Listen-in session.
Central station operators can control the Talk/Listen-in session using the
keys on their Touch-Tone* telephone. You can program the functions of
these keys by following the instructions in 4.10 “Central Station Talk/Lis-
ten-In Commands” on page 14.
NOTE:
Doorbells and monitoring will not work when Talk/Listen-in
mode is on.
NOTE:
If Talk/Listen-in is active and another event occurs, the PC4936
will end the Talk/Listen-in session and transmit the event to the central
station. For UL Listed applications, the maximum on-line time must be
limited to 30 seconds.
