The typical telephone number punctuation characters "( )" (left and right parentheses), " " (space), and "-"
(dash) are accepted for readability, but ignored during dialing. They count as one telephone digit each. No
other, non-numeric characters are allowed.
For example, a telephone number of ‘9,,(781) 899-9652’ will dial 9, pause 4 seconds, then finish dialing
7818999652. Note that the example given uses 18 of the 20 available characters.
Set Account Numbers
These boxes are used to set the primary and secondary account numbers that Keltron S/FDACT includes
in reports. The primary account number is always used when reporting to the primary telephone number,
and the secondary account number is always used when reporting to the secondary telephone number. The
same account number may be used for both if desired. The factory defaults are 9999 for the primary and
9998 for the secondary.
Set Options
Telephone Lines Used
The default setting is for S/FDACT to use and supervise both of its telephone line connections. If a
second telephone line is not available, checking the “line 1 only” option will prevent S/FDACT from
reporting a line fault condition on line 2.
Send Troubles to Second Account
Normally, the Keltron S/FDACT will send all reports to the primary account, i.e. the primary telephone
number. S/FDACT will only use the secondary account and telephone number if it is unable to report to
the primary. Checking this option box will cause S/FDACT to send troubles, supervisories, and their
restores only to the secondary account. This function applies to the hard wired zones only and not the
serial port-derived events.
Set Daily Test Interval
The factory default is for the Keltron S/FDACT to send daily test reports once every 24 hours. Per UL
864, if either programmed telephone number is not a direct line to the receiving station (DACR), but is
call-forwarded to the line of the DACR, then the test interval must be reduced to once every 4 hours.
