Communicator – Dialing
If the
Communicator Disable
option is selected, the panel
will not attempt to call the central station. If communication is
enabled, the panel will attempt to call the central station when
an event with a valid reporting code occurs. (see 5.8
“Commu-
nicator – Reporting Codes”
)
The
Communicator Call Direction
options are used to select
which telephone number the panel will dial when an event
occurs.
If the
DTMF Dialing
option is enabled, the panel will dial using
DTMF. If the
Switch to Pulse Dial
option is enabled, the panel
will switch to pulse dialing on the fifth attempt to call the cen-
tral station. When this option is disabled, the panel will always
dial using DTMF. If DTMF Dialing is disabled, the panel will
always pulse dial.
If the
Busy Tone Detection
option is enabled, the panel will
hang up after detecting busy tone for 5 seconds and will
redial after the amount of time programmed in the Delay
Between Dialing Attempts section.
Maximum Dialing Attempts
determines the maximum num-
ber of attempts the panel will make to send a signal to the
central station before indicating a Failure to Communicate
(FTC) trouble condition. The 3rd Telephone Number can be
used to back up the 1st in this situation. (see 5.7
“Communica-
tor – Telephone Numbers”
) If a later communication attempt is
successful, the FTC reporting code(s) programmed in section
[351] will be transmitted along with the unreported events
from an earlier unsuccessful communication.
NOTE:
For UL Listed products, dialing attempts must be no
less than 5, no more than 10 attempts.
Post Dial Wait for Handshake
determines the amount of time
the panel will wait for a valid handshake from the receiver. If
the panel does not hear the handshake it will consider the call
a failed attempt, hang up and try again.
NOTE:
Contact your local telephone company to confirm which
settings should be used.

Communicator – Account Numbers
The account number is used by the central station to distin-
guish between panels. There are two account numbers pro-
grammable for the PC1555MX.

Communicator – Telephone Numbers
The panel can use three different telephone numbers for com-
municating with the central station. The
First Telephone
Number
is the primary number, the
Second Telephone Num-
ber
is the secondary number and the
Third Telephone Num-
ber
will back up the
First Telephone Number
if enabled.
NOTE:
Third Telephone Number
will NOT back up the
Sec-
ond Telephone Number
.
NOTE:
If you enter a telephone number section (sections
[301] - [303]) at an LED/Fixed Message LCD keypad, pressing
[#] will delete the programmed telephone number and change
all the digits to [F].
If the
Alternate Dial
option is enabled, the panel will alternate
between the first and third telephone numbers when attempt-
ing to call the central station. If the option is disabled, the
panel will only attempt to call the third telephone number after
failing to communicate with the first telephone number.
NOTE:
To use the
Third Telephone Number
, you must enable
it in section [380], option [5], and program it in section [303].
NOTE:
Telephone numbers can be up to 32 digits. This allows
you to add special digits if required. To program the telephone
number, enter the numbers 0 through 9 as required. The fol-
lowing is a list of programmable HEX digits and the functions
they perform:
HEX (B) - simulates the [*] key on a tone telephone
HEX (C) - simulates the [#] key on a tone telephone
HEX (D) - forces the panel to search for dial tone
HEX (E) - forces the panel to pause for 2 seconds
HEX (F) - marks the end of the telephone number
NOTE:
The first digit of all telephone numbers must be the
HEX digit ‘D’ for dial tone search, or HEX digit ‘E’ for a two-sec-
ond pause.
Two-way Voice Monitoring
The PC5928/PC5936 modules have built-in two-way voice for
central station monitoring. The central station can select the
audio station, listen/talk, extend online time and hang up. The
listen-in feature can be enabled separately for telephone num-
bers 1/3 and 2.

Communicator – Reporting Codes
The panel can be programmed to report events to the central
station by sending the
Reporting Code
programmed for a
particular event.
Reporting codes can be one or two digits and can use HEX
digits (A through F). For a complete description of reporting
codes which can be programmed and lists of automatic Con-
