LISTEN TIME 90 SEC MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS
Background:
Individual subscriber accounts may take advantage of the CP-220A's
Listen-In
feature, in which any audible activities and conversations
surrounding an alarm event can be heard, evaluated, and recorded. The
Listen-In
concept is particularly well suited to burglary, panic, and medical
emergencies, but can be used in conjunction with virtually all types of
alarms.
For a subscriber's account to be considered as a
Listen-In
account, there are
three factors that must be satisfied:
•
The installation must have a suitable
Listen-In
module correctly
interfaced with the system's control panel
or its stand-alone
communicator, along with at least one properly connected microphone.
NOTE: Several security equipment manufacturers currently produce
Listen-In modules that are compatible with a wide range of control
panels and receivers like the CP-220A.
•
The system's control panel must be programmed with an
account number beginning with a
hexadecimal letter
, rather than
a
number;
thus, hexadecimal characters "B" through "F" are applicable
(and can be selected in
PARAMETER 33);
as an example, B123 or F789
are account numbers that qualify as subscribers whose alarms will be
"listened to."
NOTE: For additional information on
hexadecimal
numbering, refer to
Appendix A.
