E-TECH ET8 V4 CONTROL PANEL - USER MANUAL

OPERATING THE ET8 BY TELEPHONE
The ET8 will allow a user to call in to the
panel, using a standard DTMF telephone,
and remotely Arm or Disarm all areas and
also turn on or off Aux 1 and Aux 2.
To ensure security of operation a user can
only carry out remote operations after entering
a valid user code.
WHAT’S NEEDED:
• A telephone with DTMF tones.
• A Valid User code programmed in the
ET8.
• The ET8 to be connected (via Mode 3
socket) to a working telephone line at the
installed premises.
• You need to know the telephone number of
the line that the ET8 is connected to.
REMOTE OPERATION
NOTES
• If the ET8 does not receive commands for periods longer than 10 seconds it will
assume that the call is finished and it will hang up.
• If an alarm occurs which requires the ET8 to dial out while attempting remote
control, the ET8 will treat the alarm as a priority, give a constant tone as a warning
and then hang up.
• When all remote control commands are finished press
to force the ET8 to
hang up.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION.

listen for the required number of rings
(ring ring...ring ring) and then hang up.
