INSTRUCTION MANUAL
DIALLER OPERATION
If you have a 5000 SERIES Dialler fitted to your 8 ZONE Control Panel, you are provided
with many additional features as well as the capability to transmit alarms
to a Central Monitoring station. This manual is designed to provide instructions
on those Dialler features which may be under your control.
It should be read in conjunction with the main 5000 SERIES Instruction Manual.
REGULAR CALLS
To ensure the integrity of your security, the Dialler will be installed to make regular calls
to your Central Monitoring Station. For industrial and commercial premises, this will
normally happen twice a day; when the Control Panel is Disarmed and again
when Armed. Alternatively, regular TEST calls can be sent from once every half hour
to once a week. The latter is often used for domestic premises. Your security installer
will advise you on the appropriate timing of the TEST calls for your premises.
LINE/EXPAND INDICATOR
The LINE/EXPAND indicator is shared between the Dialler and the Zone Expander
since each only uses it for a short time. Normally the indicator will be off.
When the Dialler seizes the telephone line to make a call, the indicator will turn on.
At the end of a successful call, the indicator will turn off.
An unsuccessful call will leave the indicator flashing rapidly until the next call.
In certain high-security applications, the installer may inhibit the above operation
of the LINE/EXPAND indicator (but not the fault indications described below).
Every few seconds, the Dialler checks the telephone line for the existence of any
"faults" (eg. the cutting of the telephone cable). Whenever a fault is detected,
the LINE/EXPAND indicator will flash slowly until the problem is corrected.
Should the LINE/EXPAND indicator flash very rapidly then either the Dialler
or the Zone Expander is faulty and should be repaired as soon as possible.
OPTIONAL FEATURES
Your installer can provide one or more of the following simple
features, if required, to help you maintain maximum security.
Operate the siren and strobe on detection of a telephone line fault.
Operate the siren and strobe after an unsuccessful series of calls to
the Central Monitoring Station.
Indicate a successful call to a Central Monitoring Station by beeping
the siren 3 times (used when Arming).
Indicate a successful call to a Central Monitoring Station by
operating the strobe for 3 seconds (used when Arming).
Operate the Dialler's AUXILIARY output on detection of a line
fault, after a successful call or after an unsuccessful call.
