REMEMBER!
To leave the Programming
Mode at any time, press
the
Esc
key. Doing so will
return the CP-220A to its
normal operating mode.
Programming changes will
be stored automatically.
Another Reporting Format, known as
4x1
(four by one)
without parity,
also
contains five characters:
• a four-digit
Account Number
• a one-digit
Alarm Code
This
4x1
format uses no parity checking. As a result, the CP-220A cannot
distinguish between messages received in the
3x1 (with parity)
and the
4x1
(without parity)
formats because both produce the same number of digits.
Therefore,
PARAMETER 44
is used to inform the CP-220A which of these
two formats it's meant to receive. Note that this selection can be made on a
slot-by-slot basis. See
Appendix B
for additional information.
Programming Procedures:
[SLOT 1 FORMAT 3x1 W/P] will be displayed after entering
PARAMETER
44.
The number [1] after [SLOT] will be flashing.
If it is necessary to change between these formats as currently specified for
Slot 1, take the following steps:
1. Depress
the key once. The [3x1 W/P] after [FORMAT] will begin to
flash.
2. Press
the
NEXT
key or the
MANUAL/PREVIOUS
key to display [4x1
WO/P]
(4x1 without parity),
which is the alternate selection. Make the
desired choice for
Slot 1
.
3. Press
the key so that the [1] after [SLOT] flashes again.
4. To choose between the
3x1 with parity
and the
4x1 without parity
formats, press the number key of the slot desired (e.g.,
2
); the chosen
Slot Number
and its currently assigned
PARAMETER 44
format
selection will be displayed.
5.
Repeat the above steps for each
Slot Number
whose format capability
must be changed, in the manner described
Default:
When it receives a 5-character message, each slot will initially assume its
contents will be in the
3x1 with parity
format (the default)
.
Advancing to Next Parameter:
The next parameter in
Category A
is
PARAMETER 47.
Because it is not
sequential, it cannot be reached with a single press of the
key. To advance
to
PARAMETER 47,
press the
N
key.
