POWER-OFF TIME ACCUMULATOR
Each time the AC power fails, the Sensaphone accumulates the time in its memory. It then
will state the total amount of time that the power has failed in its status report. The off-time
accumulator will calculate the length of power failure for 255 minutes and 59 seconds. After
that, the unit will reset to 0. If the AC power and the battery back-up fail, the accumulator
will reset to 0. To manually reset the power-off time, press OFF, and then ON.
HIGH SOUND ALARM ENABLE / DISABLE
The Model 4100 monitors sound through the built-in microphone. When the current sound
level suddenly exceeds the normal sound level, the high sound alarm causes the Model 4100
to dial out. The increased sound level must exist for at least eight seconds. The default for
the high sound alarm is enabled (on). The microphone is also used to listen in to on-site
sounds. See Chapter 3, “Listen-In Time,” for settings.
NOTE: Disabling the sound alarm does not affect listen-in capability.
To enable/disable the high sound alarm:
1. Press the SENSOR ON/OFF key
2. Press the SOUND key
The 4100 will say “Off ” to indicate disabled. The 4100 will say “On” to indicate
enabled.
3. Repeat key sequence to change.
To interrogate:
1. Press the WHAT IS key
2. Press the SOUND key
If the high sound alarm is enabled, the 4100 will recite the listen-in time programmed. If
the high sound alarm is disabled, the 4100 will say “Off ” and then will recite the listen-in
time programmed.
SOUND ALARM MONITORING SENSITIVITY
This command allows you to change the sensitivity of the sound monitoring feature. This is
useful to desensitize the Model 4100 if it is installed in an area with a relatively high sound
level, or where loud noises occur but are not associated with an alarm. Also, this feature
allows you to increase sensitivity in situations where you want to monitor lower sound
