Section 6: Programming
This continues until communication is successful or the sequence has been repeated 5 times (depending on the number of maximum
dialing attempts). If all 5 attempts fail, an FTC trouble for the primary phone number is logged. All backup receivers automatically use
the same call directions and format as the primary receiver.
OFF: After 5 failed attempts to communicate with the primary receiver, the communicator switches to the next backup receiver in the
sequence and makes up to 5 more attempts. This continues until communication is successful or until all backup receivers fail, at
which point an FTC trouble for the primary number is logged.
7 – Reduced Dialing Attempts
ON: If a TLM trouble is present, The alarm system immediately attempts to call the backup receiver. This option only applies to PSTN.
Backup communications must be enabled. See option 5, Parallel Communications.
A minimum of two receivers should be enabled for this feature to operate as intended. This feature should not be enabled unless the
panel is programmed to use backup communication paths.
OFF: If a TLM trouble is present, the number of dialing attempts programmed shall be attempted before moving on to the backup
receiver.
8 – Activity Delinquency
ON: Inactivity on a partition for a programmed duration (section [377] option 002, Delinquency Transmission Delay) transmits a
Delinquency code to the central station. This option is designed to help monitor the elderly or disabled. The counter is reset if zone
activity is detected or if the system is armed. The Delinquency Transmission Delay is in hours.
Note:
Delinquency code is not transmitted while Away armed. Activity on bypassed zones does not affect this timer.
OFF: The Delinquency reporting code is sent when the programmed number of days for delinquency (section [377]) expires without
the partition being Armed. Once the code is sent, the timer is not started again until the partition has been armed. Each day
programmed in the counter represents one day plus the time it takes for the partition to reach midnight. To disable this feature,
program 000 in section [377]>[002] option 5.
