Enabling/Disabling DACT
1. Press <ENTER> at the DACT: [Options] prompt. The
following prompt appears, allowing you to enable or
disable the DACT.
<ENTER>=Accept
Opt: [Enable DACT]
2. Press <ENTER>. The following appears.
Enable DACT
[OFF]
3. Use the <NEXT> or <PREV> keys to change the set-
ting to ON.
By default, the DACT is enabled, but unconfigured. The
DACT will report a configuration trouble until the
phone numbers and account numbers are programmed,
or until it is disabled if it will not be used.
4. Press <ENTER>. A prompt appears, asking you to con-
firm the choice.
5. Press <ENTER> to confirm the selection. The prompt
shown in Step 1 reappears. Use the <NEXT> key to
move to the prompt for primary phone number.
Setting Primary Phone Number
The next prompt allows you to set the Primary Phone Num-
ber of the supervising station. This is the number that the
DACT dials first.
<ENTER>=Accept
Opt: [Pri Phone #]
1. Press <ENTER>. The following prompt appears.
Pri Phone #
[X] XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
2. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor from one digit to
another. Use the keypad numbers, or use the NEXT and
PREV keys to enter each number. Press <ENTER>
when the number is correctly entered. A prompt appears
asking you to confirm the number that you entered.
Note:
The following special characters are available for
use when setting the primary and secondary phone num-
bers.
• B -- Use if it is necessary to input a DTMF (touch-
tone) asterisk (*) into the phone number.
• C -- Use if it is necessary to input a DTMF pound
sign (#) into the phone number.
• D -- Inserting this character into the phone number
causes a 3 second delay at the point at which the D
appears.
- E -- This character causes the DACT to wait two
seconds for a secondary (outside line) dial tone. It
may be necessary to use this character if you must
dial a specific number (9, for example) to get an
outside line on the phone system. For example, 9E
would cause the DACT to request an outside line
and then wait 2 seconds for the secondary dial tone
before proceeding with the rest of the phone num-
ber. If you use the “E” special character,
make sure
to set the Dial Mode to Tone; do not use Tone
else Pulse.

pears.
