Output
When the Repeater is used as an output one, the channels are used to backup each other. Only one protocol list
is used by all the channels. In this mode, if a fault account is defined in the PimaGuard, the event will be reported
with the repeater’s ‘keep alive’ account, if exists.
17. Double-click Repeater 1;
18. Filters: see page 25;
19. Double-click Format 1;
Channel
20. The PimaGuard uses the channels as a backup for outgoing Repeaters.
21. For each transmission there are three tries in each channel.
22. When selecting a Line, add the line number in the ‘Destination address’. It should contain nothing
but digits.
23. ‘Test time’: this event is sent when there no other events in the buffer.
24. ‘Account’: this is a test account. when the PimaGuard is faulty, a fault event is sent with this
account (and the first system of the current channel), and not the PimaGuard’s one (the one that is
set in ‘General’. See page 13).
25. Press OK.

ILTERS
A filter enables you to decide what information will be received by the PimaGuard and what will not. The filters
are: Account, Event, Date, Days, Time, Format and Channel. The Filters window appears the same in every
channel and module, but is set separately for each.
Account
Filter the events by the Account number. There are 2 filtering ranges and a limit list. In the next example, only
the events from accounts 1-500 OR 600-999 will be accepted. Numbers outside these ranges will be ignored.
Limit List
Limit list is a list of either event codes or account ranges that serves as a limit filter in addition to all other filters.
The number set in this field is the number of values out of the whole list. For example, if the list contains 1,000
account numbers, but the list limit is set to 400, only the first 400 numbers will be processed and all others will
When selecting a PSTN line as the outgoing repeater, chances for delays are high;
therefore, it is recommanded to use it as a backup channel only.
A. If more than one filter is used, the different filters are added to each other (AND
operator) and only events that are not filtered by any of the filters will be
handled. The same applies if the communication is re-routed;
B. In filters where there is more than one range, the events will only be handled if
they are included in one of the ranges;
C. A range includes both margins;
