INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Introduction
The
Speech Module
provides four recordable 12 second audio messages, each message is
assigned to an alarm channel, which in turn can be triggered from one of the many output
functions of the control panel. The
Speech Module
is supported by the following Texecom control
panels:
•
Premier 816Plus
(Must be fitted with software version 9.3 or higher)
•
Premier 832
(Must be fitted with software version 2.3 or higher)
Channels 3 & 4 only operate on V14.03 and later

proceed as follows:
1)
Ensure that all power is removed from the control panel before connecting the
Speech
Module
.
2)
Plug the
Speech Module
(see Figure 2) onto the 8 way plug (SK1) of the control panel.

Testing the Speech Module
The procedure below shows how to perform a simple operational test for the
Speech Module
.
1)
Select the “Engineer’s programming” menu.
2)
Enter
to select the “Send Test Call” option.
3)
Press
/
to initiate a test call.
4)
If you have a telephone on the same line as the control panel you can pick it up and listen
to the message.
5)
During the test call you may press
,
,
or
to switch between playing
messages 1 2 3 & 4.
6)
The person listening to the message on their telephone can acknowledge the call by
pressing the
[#]
key. This will cause the panel to hang-up the call. If the call is
acknowledged using the
[*]
key the panel is put in remote control mode whereby it can be
controlled using a touch-tone telephone (see below).
7)
Once the messages have been tested using menu 92, it is advisable to test the channels
respond correctly. For example, if you have programmed the function of channel 2 as
Burglar Alarm, then you should arm the system and activate an alarm zone, then verify that
the message is reported as expected.
