Paging Feature
About Automatic Paging
Your system may be set up to automatically send messages to several pagers (4 pagers for VISTA-20P
Series, 2 pagers for VISTA-15P Series) as certain conditions occur in your system.
•
The following events can be programmed by your installer to be sent to the pagers: arming and
disarming
†
, alarms, and trouble conditions. (
†
reports when arming/disarming from a keypad using a
security code; auto-arming/disarming, arming with assigned button, and keyswitch arming do not send
pager messages.)
•
You can also program the system to send an automatic pager message to alert you that someone has
not arrived home (disarmed the system) within a defined period of time (see the
Scheduling
section for
details on programming a “latch key report”).
•
Your installer programs the pager phone numbers and reporting events.
•
The pager message consists of a 7-digit system status code that indicates the type of condition that has
occurred.
•
An optional, predefined 16-digit character string can precede the 7-digit system status code; these
characters can consist of a PIN no., subscriber account no., or any additional data that you may wish to
have sent to the pager.
•
The pager display format is as follows:
