Alarm reception
All tone dialing telephones (units with the keys * and #) can work as simple alarm receivers.
The telephone keypad is used to control alarm reception and to acknowledge the alarm un-
less the need for acknowledgment has been deactivated.
The most important key to learn is 4, used to acknowledge the alarm and set up the call.
7.1 Alarm call
When answering an incoming alarm call, the Fältcom ECII® Flex will play message 2 if that
has been programmed or play a 4-tone (”chirp”) for the receiver. The message or tone is
played every 5 seconds until the alarm is acknowledged. If the alarm receiver has not an-
swered within 60 seconds the Fältcom ECII® Flex will automatically disconnect and call the
next alarm number. The lift phone waits 10 seconds before dialing the next alarm number.
7.2 Acknowledging an alarm
Acknowledge the alarm with
4, ACKNOWLEDGE
. A duplex voice communication call is then
set up; as in a normal telephone call.
A call will be disconnected automatically three minutes after the last key pressing, i.e. three
minutes after the call is acknowledged. With thirty seconds to disconnection, a warning tone
will be heard. To prolong the call, press
4, ACKNOWLEDGE
.
If functions “Simplified acknowledge” (320) is used the alarm is acknowledged by pressing
any digit on the telephone keypad. If “Disconnected acknowledge” (321 or 323) are used the
alarm is acknowledged automatically upon connecting the call.
