ACCESS CODE See Security Access Code.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT The act of advising the Verbatim autodialer that
its alarm message has been heard. This is done either by pressing a touch tone 9
at the prompting beep, or by calling the unit back after the alarm call has ended.
Once acknowledged, further activity on that particular channel will not cause
further dialing until the expiration of the Alarm Reset Time. See Section 5.1,
“Placing Inquiry Calls to the Verbatim autodialer,” and Section 5.5,
“Acknowledging the Alarm Call."
ALARM CALL GROUPING Special programming established to cause
specific input channels to cause dialing of only selected phone numbers. Used
to provide separate alarm functions according to category of personnel, such as
maintenance, security, plumbing, etc. See Section 6.1, “Program Codes.”
ALARM CONDITION
For contact input channels, the Alarm Condition is
the Open or Closed circuit condition opposite to that which was established as
the Normal Condition for that channel. For example, for a channel programmed
as Normally Open, the Alarm Condition would be Closed Circuit. Also see
Violation. See Sections 3.3, “Programming Input Channels” and 5.3,
“Receiving Alarm Calls.”
ALARM CRITERIA The chosen determination of what will constitute an
alarm condition (violation) for a given channel. See Normally Closed.
ALARM READY SCHEDULING
A program setting which causes the
Verbatim autodialer automatically disarm for certain time periods. This
function prevents the product from sending alarm telephone calls during periods
when personnel are stationed at the site and are able to deal with the problem
directly.
ALARM RESET TIME The period of time, beginning at the moment an
alarm is acknowledged, during which alarm dialing on behalf of that specific
channel is suspended regardless of further activity of its input circuit. At the end
of this period, the Acknowledged Alarm status is cleared for that channel. See
Section 5.6, “Alarm Reset Timeout After Acknowledgment” and Section 6,
“Advanced Programming.”
ALARM TRIP DELAY The time required for an input violation to remain
in violation before the unit trips into the Unacknowledged Alarm state. See
Section 6, “Advanced Programming.”
