1.8 Telephone Requirements and Warnings
1.8.1 Telephone Circuitry
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) = 0.3A
AC Impedance: 10.0 Mega Ohm
Complies with FCC Part 68
Mates with RJ31X Male Connector
Supervision Threshold: loss of phone line voltage for 2 minutes
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line
may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five
(5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone com-
pany to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.
Before connecting the control panel to the public switched telephone network, the installation of two RJ31X jacks is necessary. If trouble is
experienced with this equipment, for repair or warranty information, please contact:

Alarm dialing equipment must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if
other equipment (telephone, answering system, computer modem, etc.) already has the telephone line in use. To do so, alarm dialing equip-
ment must be connected to a properly installed RJ31X jack that is electrically in series with and ahead of all other equipment attached to the
same telephone line. If there are any questions concerning these instructions, consult the telephone company or a qualified installer about
installing the RJ31X jack and alarm dialing equipment. Refer to “CELL-MOD(C)/CELL-CAB-FL” on page 30 for an illustration of the
proper installation of this equipment.
Important!
The DACT must not be used to dial a phone number that is call-forwarded.
1.8.2 Telephone Company Rights and Warnings
The telephone company, under certain circumstances, may temporarily discontinue services and/or make changes in its facilities, services,
equipment or procedures which may affect the operation of this control panel. However, the telephone company is required to give advance
notice of such changes or interruptions.
If the control panel causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company reserves the right to temporarily discontinue service.
Advance notification will be provided except in cases when advance notice is not practical. In such cases, notification will be provided as
soon as possible. The opportunity will be given to correct any problems and to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS PRODUCT TO COIN TELEPHONE, GROUND START, OR PARTY LINE SERVICES.
When the control panel activates, premise phones will be disconnected.
Two separate phone lines are required. Do not connect both telephone interfaces to the same telephone line.
The control panel must be connected to the public switched telephone network upstream (as first device) of any private telephone system at
the protected premises.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68
rules and requirements adopted by ACTA. This equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a
