9. OPERATING MODE SELECTION
The Advent XT2 system can report calls in three different ways;
1.
ONSITE MODE
- to an onsite carer via the cordless handset
2.
MOBILE MODE
- to a mobile carer via a mobile telephone
3.
REMOTE OFFSITE MODE
- to 24 hour alarm receiving centre
The operating mode is selected by entering special codes on the handset or from the Manager’s Panel.
MODE S
ELECTION USING THE MANAGER’S PANEL
1. The current operating mode is shown by the position of the
BLACK
slider on the Manager’s Panel Home page
2. Touch the
GREEN
part of the operating mode slider to select a new operating mode
3. Enter the 4-digit password to change the mode
4. The
BLACK
slider will show the new operating mode
If the system is operating in onsite mode and an alarm call remains un-answered for a preset time (6
minutes) the call will automatically switch to mobile (local offsite) mode and report to the mobile
warden. If the call still goes un-answered, then offsite mode will be selected, and the call will go to
the 24 hour alarm receiving centre.
It is not possible to select mobile or offsite mode if a telephone line fault exists. If the system is
operating in either of these modes when a telephone line fault develops then the system will report
calls to the onsite manager. Calls will go back to the selected mode as soon as the fault clears.
A telephone line fault is reported on the cordless
handset, the Manager’s Panel and a BT line fault
beacon (if fitted).
Note: if the XT2 changes the operating mode
(e.g. an unanswered onsite call is diverted offsite)
then the position of the slider will automatically
change to the current state.
