RUN TIME METER A feature which, when turned on, accumulates the
total number of hours that an input channel is in the Closed Circuit condition.
Typically used to monitor equipment operation time, particularly alternating
pump systems. See Section 3.3, “Programming Input Channels,” and Section 6,
“Advanced Programming.”
SCALE FACTOR
A translation factor which may optionally be entered in
conjunction with the Pulse Totalizer function. The spoken Totalizer reading will
be the actual number of pulses accumulated, divided the programmed scale
factor. See Section 6, “Advanced Programming.”
SECURITY ACCESS CODE
A code optionally programmed by the user at
the front panel. Once programmed, this code is required in order to perform any
program operations over the phone. See Section 5.7, “Programming by Phone,”
and Section 6, “Advanced Programming.”
SPEECH MEMORY RATE
See Recording Rate.
STATION ID MESSAGE
A message which is always included in all phone
calls to or from the unit, intended to identify the unit. The default Station ID
Message is “ID number is 1”. See Section 4.1, “Planning Messages” and 4.3,
“Record Your Messages.”
TIME BETWEEN ALARM CALLS
With the unit in Unacknowledged
Alarm status, the waiting time from the time the unit terminates a given alarm
call, until the time when the unit again accesses the phone line to place the next
call. During this interval (default 2 minutes), personnel may call the unit back,
which will acknowledge the alarm and suspend further calling. See Section 5.4,
“Continued Dialing in the Absence of Acknowledgment,” and Section 6,
“Advanced Programming.”
VIOLATION For contact closure inputs, a violation (also called Alarm
Condition) is the Open or Closed Circuit condition which is opposite the
condition which has been programmed as Normal for that channel. For
example, if a given input channel is programmed for Normally Open operation,
then a Closed Circuit is a violation for that input. If the violation persists for the
Alarm Trip Delay time, the unit will go into Unacknowledged Alarm state and
begin placing alarm calls. See Section 3.3, “Programming Input Channels, ” 5.3,
“Receiving Alarm Calls,” and 5.6, “Alarm Rest Timeout After
Acknowledgment.”
