EXTENDED PROGRAMMING OPTIONS
Extended programming options are designed to configure the unit for use in special circumstances where the default settings
are not adequate for proper operation. Use these options only if you are having problems with the basic operation of the
device. They are not intended as additional features. Use
99**
to clear any extended options. Remember, that
99**
will also
clear all standard options that have been set.
If you receive a pager notification on all but "
Out-of-Area
" calls, you probably have voice mail or paging service options that
are accessed by dialing "
0
" once the paging company answers. If this is true, then the unit can be set to deliver "
2222
"
instead of "
0000
" for "
Out-of-Area
" calls to eliminate this problem.
1122**
This will instruct the unit to deliver "
2222
" instead of "
0000
" to the pager company for "
Out-of-Area
" calls. Use
this option if a zero is used to access paging company options.
55 Series Options
Use one of the following three "
55
" series options only if: (a) the unit goes off hook properly, and (b) dials the pager
company correctly, and then (c) does not deliver the call information to the pager. Use the "Listen-in Procedure" discussed on
page 9 to determine whether all three of the above are true.
Only one "
55
" series option can be set at a time. If one "
55"
option is set, and another "
55
" option is dialed, the last option
will erase the first.
One common problem involved with delivering information to a paging service is noisy telephone lines. If the unit is dials the
paging company, but does not deliver any information once the paging company answers, then try using option
5522**
.
5522**
Allows unit to deliver information to paging company when telephone lines are noisy.
If the unit still does not deliver the call information, try using the one of the two other
55**
options.
The unit uses a mathematical algorithm to help it determine the state of the phone call. This is known as "Call Progression."
In normal situations, the unit knows whether the line is busy, ringing, answered, etc. But, if there is something unusual about
the signals on the line, the paging company, or the connection, the unit may not be able to accurately call progress and
determine the state of the phone call. When this occurs, the unit will not deliver the call information reliably.
Option
558x**
eliminates a lot of the call progression that may otherwise confuse the unit when the telephone environment is
substandard. If option
5522**
does not cause the unit to properly deliver the call information, try option
558x**
.
558x**
This options eliminates most of the call progression. It instructs the unit to wait "
x
" times 2 seconds to deliver call
information after detecting answer by paging company.
Example:
5583**
instructs the unit to wait 6 (2 times x, where x=3) seconds after the paging company answers and then
deliver the call information.
If
(1) the unit goes off hook, and
(2) dials the pager company correctly, but
(3) still will not deliver the call data, and
(4) the other two "
55
" options fail, then try:
559x**
This option eliminates all the call progression. It instructs the unit to deliver call data "
x
" times 2 seconds after pager
number is dialed.
Example:
5594**
instructs the unit to send the call information 8 (2 times x, where x=4) seconds after the pager number
is dialed.
In different applications, this option can be used to eliminate call progression so that the unit is able to deliver the call
information to a collection device rather than to a paging service.
71**
This option disables remote programming if conflicts arise with remote retrieval of messages from an answering
