(3x1,4x2)
Define code to trigger Listen-In mode in 3x1 or 4x2 formats
Printer/Buzzer
Yes = Check printer on DECRYPTA port
No= Do not check for printer (default)
By default DECRYPTA
does
not
verify
printer
status
on
parallel
port but sends data to be printed as if a printer
was connected to this port.
(Yes) option tells the DECRYPTA receiver to verify and report on the status of the printer connected to the
DECRYPTA parallel port. The status verification applies to the DECRYPTA (lowest COM) in the computer if
more than one MCDI receiver is installed. A connector is needed to daisy chain multiple DECRYPTA receivers
to send all output to one printer only.
When Check printer option is enabled (Yes) and the computer is absent, each event being sent to printer triggers
a warning buzzer. This warning sound may be stopped by clicking twice the ON-LINE printer key. Buzzing
resumes if printer is left Off-line.
Do not set the "Yes" parameter if no printer is installed. Multiple error messages could be generated by taking
this action.
Wait after O/H
Delay to start Handshake after Off Hook. No = normal, Yes=5 seconds
2 Rings
Setting not in use. DECRYPTA set to 1 ring. Setting not Caller ID dependent
Caller ID PC

SA-TLR+
Yes = enable (SA/TLR+/DECRYPTA) No = disable (Default=DECRYPTA)
Surgard Mode

1400hz / VFSK
2
SIA / CFSK
3
DUAL 1400hz / 2300hz
4
2300hz
5
STRATEL
6
TELIM
7
ROBOFON
Default sequence is as above. Option is to change first element with the one selected.
Extreme care must be exercised when changing Handshake sequence. It is a well known fact that many dialers
do not respond well to all startup sequences.
