Enable/Disable alarm.
First, enter the alarm type, then enter 1 to enable the alarm reporting or 0 to disable the alarm
reporting. Example: 74, Sicon beeps, 0, Sicon beeps twice. Alarm reporting is disabled and
setup is now ended. You must enter 74 again if you change you mind. To turn off all alarm
reporting for a specific channel, consider removing it from the autoscan function using the 70
command.

– Quick Setup Alarm dial numbers.
-
To setup the phone numbers for a critical alarm, first enter the command (75) followed by the
one-digit alarm type. The alarm type must correspond to a critical alarm. That is, it must be
either 3 (low critical), 4 (high critical), or 6 (status critical). Then enter a series of up to five two-
digit numbers corresponding to the phone number memory location (01-20). To terminate the
list before using all five phone numbers, enter the number sign (#).
77- Read Meter
This command causes the Sicon-8 to read back the meter associated with the current channel.
78- Set relay mode (for channels 7, 8, 15 or 16 only)
This mode lets you set the relays on these channels to momentary or latching mode.
Momentary mode works just like all other relays on the Sicon-8, except that the relays on these
channels are the DPDT type with two sets of normally open and normally closed contacts per
relay. Latching mode causes a relay to be energized until their off code is received. If a power
failure occurs, latching relays will return to their previous state when power is restored. (Default:
All relays momentary)
79 - Enable/disable tied relays
This mode lets you tie the raise & lower relays together allowing
both to operate from a common command. When the relays are tied together, the “lower” relay
follows the programming & activation command of the “raise” relay. This command works for
latching relays as well as the momentary ones. This mode is handy for switching stereo audio.
If tied together, the raise relay mode determines the operation of both relays.
(Default: All channels disabled)
To set the relay mode:
1. Enter 78 while channel 7, 8, 15, or 16 is selected.
2. Enter the relay mode for the raise relay (0 = momentary, 1 = latching).
3. Enter the relay mode for the lower relay. Note: when relays are latched, two digits
are required to operate them. See “
Relay Commands
” at the end of this section
for details.
To enable/disable tied relays:
1. Enter 79 (this can be done on any channel).
2. Enter 0 to operate each relay independently or 1 to tie the relays together.
