LOCATION 2 - COMMUNICATOR FORMAT FOR PHONE N° 1 (1 segment, numerical data)
Location 2 contains the communicator format used to transmit to the receiver that is connected to
phone N°1. Consult the instructions for your central station receiver to determine which format is
compatible. See Appendix 3 for all available format selections. If you require a format other than
those listed, review the override options described in location 18 in order to create the appropriate
format. In order to create a special format, a “15” must be programmed in location 2 in addition to
the entries in location 18. If this location contains a “0”, the built-in communicator will be disabled,
and the NetworX V3 will function as a ‘local only’ control.
LOCATION 3 - DIAL ATTEMPTS/BACKUP CONTROL FOR PHONE N° 1 (2 segm., numerical data)
Segment 1- Dial attempts: Location 3, segment 1 is used to enter the number of dial attempts (1 to
15) which the communicator will make to phone N°1 before it ends the notification process. Factory
default is “8” and the communicator will make 8 attempts to the first number.
Note: There will be a waiting time of 12 seconds between the first two dial attempts, and a waiting time of 60 seconds
between each subsequent dial attempt.
Segment 2 - Phone N° 1 backup control: Programming a “0” in segment 2 of this location will
cause the NetworX V3 to make the designated number of attempts to phone N°2 before setting the
“Fail To Communicate” condition and stop reporting. Programming a “1” in this segment will cause
the NetworX V3 to stop trying to communicate after the designated number of attempts have been
made to phone N°1. If a “2” is programmed in this segment, it will cause the NetworX V3 to make
the dial attempts in increments of two. The first two attempts will be made to phone N°1, the next
two attempts to phone N°2, then repeating until the total number of attempts designated in Segment 1
is completed.
Reporting events to phone number 1
Phone N°1 has two programming locations that are used to select the events which are reported to
this phone number.
Location 4 is used to select which events are reported to phone N°1. Location 5 is used to select
which partitions are reported to phone N°1. If you do not want dual or split reporting, use location 4
to select all events to phone N°1, and leave location 5 at the factory default of “0”. If you want dual
or split reporting, and the split is based on the event type (such as alarm, open/close, etc.), you should
use location 4 to select only those events that should be reported to phone N°1, and you should leave
location 5 at the factory default of “0”. If you want dual or split reporting, and the split is based on
partition, you should program location 4 as a “0” and use location 5 to select those partitions that are
to be reported to phone N°1. If no events are to be reported to phone N°1, both locations should be
programmed as “0”.
LOCATION 4 - EVENTS REPORTED TO PHONE N° 1 (2 segments, feature selection data)
Segment 1 1 = Alarms
2 = Opening and closings
