Remote Arming Via The Telephone
This feature allows you to arm your system from any remote location via the telephone line.
For obvious security reasons, the system cannot be disarmed using this method. To make use
of this feature, you will require a touch-tone telephone or the Phone Controller (CC911).
How To Remotely Arm Your System Via The Telephone
1. Call the telephone number that your control panel has been connected to.
2.
When the control panel answers the incoming call, a short jingle will be heard. Hold
the phone controller to the mouthpiece of the telephone and press the button on the side
of the unit for 3 seconds. You can alternatively press the
*
button on the touch-tone
telephone for 3 seconds to arm the system.
If you hear a number of strange sounding tones when the control panel answers the
incoming call, this means that the system has been programmed for remote
programming functions. Simply wait for a pause in the tones and follow step 2 to
remotely arm the system.
3. After releasing the button on the phone controller or the
*
button on the touch-tone
telephone, two beeps will be heard to indicate that the system has armed in AWAY
Mode.
4. Hang up the telephone and the system will remain armed.
If the control panel does not answer the call, this means that the system may already be armed,
remote functions have not been enabled or the ring count has been set to zero. Refer to Option
2 in "LOCATION 177" on page 145 to enable remote arming via the telephone and
“LOCATION 175” on page 140 to set the number of rings before the control panel will
answer.
Where both remote arming and Upload/Download via the Installer’s remote computer
have been selected, the control panel will answer the call expecting the remote
computer. This is easily noticed, as the modem negotiating tones will be heard rather
than the remote arming jingle.
