Quick Programming Guide
Programming your Talkaphone unit is, in most cases, quite simple. While it is recommended that you
read the complete instructions below before you begin, the following quick guide will serve many
applications. After entering each code you should hear one beep, confirming the acknowledgement of
the command:
1.
Call your emergency/information phone. It answers with a series of tones.
2.
Enter the default Guard Access Code: *4**.
3.
Enter the primary phone number your Talkaphone unit should dial upon activation: *13*[Phone
Number]*.
4.
Enter the secondary phone number your Talkaphone unit should dial if the primary number is
busy or does not answer (optional): *23*[Phone Number]*.
5.
If the Talkaphone unit will be an extension of a phone system (i.e. on a PBX), enter these three
codes into the Emergency/Information phone, each followed by the acknowledgement beep: *55*,
*18*5*, *14*3*.
6.
If you wish to use the Intelli-Voice feature, enter *58* to record a 10 second message. The
Talkaphone unit will beep once before the recording starts and beep the second time at the end
of the message recording. Enter *59* to play back the recorded message.
7.
Enter # to hang up the Talkaphone unit.
Detailed Programming Information: Before Programming
There are several questions you must answer in order to program your phone. You may have to
contact the communication manager of the facility to get the answers to some of these questions. You
should write down your answers on the back of this manual for future reference. Before you proceed,
make sure that the phone is on a dedicated line. (If it shares a line with other Call Stations, make sure
you are using an EC-2 or EC-8 Consolidator.) In other words, there must not be
any
other devices
using this communication line.
1. What is the phone number of the line this phone is connected to? You need to know this, as you
have to call the phone in order to program it.
2. What is the location of the phone? List all pertinent information, such as address, elevator car
number, hallway, etc.
3. Is the phone line a phone company line, or is it an analog PBX extension?
4. What is the primary number the phone should dial upon activation?
5. Is there a secondary number the phone should call in the event that the first number does not
answer or is busy? A secondary number is not required for the phone to function, but is
recommended.
6.
If the phone is on a PBX line, is the extension set for “
ringdown
?”
7. If the phone is on a PBX do you need to dial a prefix, such as 9, first?
8. Are there any devices connected to the auxiliary input or outputs?
9. If you are using either an EC-2 or an EC-8 Consolidator, which port is this phone connected to?
General Programming Instructions
Programming can be done from any standard touch-tone telephone. It is essential to program at least
one telephone number for the Talkaphone unit to operate. After entering any code into the Talkaphone
unit, you should hear a single beep. This indicates that the phone has understood and accepted your
command. Two beeps indicate that the phone did not properly receive a command. After entering the
access code, the order in which codes are entered is irrelevant.
