System Configuration and Operation
The Potter Digital Communicator is configured by connecting the
CFG-5000 Configuration Tool
to P4 of the UDACT-9000 Main
Board. Once connected, if no text appears immediately on the LCD screen, hit any key on the numeric keypad.
The UDACT product supports two levels of restricted access to the
Configuration Mode
which allows for parameter configuration
and control of operation. Each level is associated with a separate
Passcode
(up to 8-digit numeric code) and may be individually
modified. Once a user gains access to the Configuration Mode, they are presented with a menu of selections according to the level of
access granted. The
factory default
Passcodes are:
Level I
- OPERATOR
“11111111”
Level II
- INSTALLER
“22222222”
A
Restore-to-Factory-Defaults
can be initiated from the CFG-5000
without having to first access program mode,
by using the
special Passcode ...
Restore-to-Factory-Defaults “12345678”
(Do Not use this passcode as a Level I or Level II passcode)
NOTE: When reviewing the configuration (account numbers, etc.) DO NOT hit the # key, use the * key to exit. Hitting the #
key when reviewing the configuration will delete the existing data.
This “deleting” feature is required when entries need to
be removed; example 1-800 number changed to a local number.

events) and
Force event queue (FIFO) to empty state (i.e. erase any queued event
history).

Abort-Reporting
Terminate any in-progress event reporting.
Remove “report pending” trigger (i.e. cancel attempts to report queued
events).
NOTE: Unreported events are still resident within FIFO. Any future
events logged will restart attempts at reporting ALL queued
(unreported) event items. This action will also add a “Line (x) Trouble”
event to the event queue.

Event Logging
AC-Power Loss (delay)
Default is 6 Hours
Specify an (optional) delay time (in hours), from 00 (no delay) to 20
(maximum delay). A report of the “AC-Power Loss” event will be
delayed by this value, and then only sent after the period has expired
with the signal still present. A “restoral” event of this signal will be
reported immediately, but only if a prior “off-normal” event was
successfully reported earlier.
