IV. The Alarm is Acknowledged
• Callback: The Express II waits 10 rings
before answering to guard against random
acknowledgment. If an answering device
is connected to the same line as the
Express II and TAD is enabled, the
Express II will answer on the first ring.
Once answered, the Express II will recite a
status report and say:
“Have a good day.”
When the Express II hangs up, the alarm
is acknowledged and dial-out stops
(unless Alert Conditions still exist—see
Reset Time, below).
• If calls remain unanswered, or if they are
received by an answering machine or FAX,
the Express II continues the dialout
sequence; it waits the Intercall Time and
proceeds to dial the next telephone
number. Telephone numbers are dialed
sequentially, and this cycle continues for
the number of Max Calls programmed. If
no acknowledgment occurs, then at the
completion of Max Calls, the alarm is
automatically acknowledged and the dial-
out process stops (unless Alert Conditions
still exist—see Reset Time, below).
• If an alarm is acknowledged by telephone
or at the local keypad, yet the alert
condition continues to exist, the Express II
will reactivate the dialout process,
following a programmable waiting period,
or Reset Time.
If Reset Time is set to zero, the dialout
process will not be repeated for that alarm.
