The lap counter is a programmable counter that determines how many times the
1600A
series phone will cycle
through its list of up to 5 emergency number (or up to 3 “Info” phone numbers), before it stops the dialing process
and hangs up. When all of the programmed phone numbers have been dialed, the lap counter is incremented and
the dialing process repeats. When the lap counter has been met, the dialing process stops and the
1600A
series
phone hangs up.

I. Assisted Programming
When attempting to program the
1600A Series
phone, if the phone number of the line it is connected to is not known,
the phone can be set to automatically call Viking technical support for assistance. With DIP switch 3 set to OFF (pro-
gramming mode), pushing the CALL button will cause the
1600A Series
phone to call Viking, whether it be connected
directly to a CO line, or behind a "dial 9" PBX.
The
1600A Series
phone will first dial 9, and then listen for second dial tone; if detected it will continue to dial Viking’s
assisted programming phone number. If a second dial tone is not detected, it then knows is not behind a PBX, so it
will momentarily hang up and then directly dial Viking’s assisted programming phone number. Since this is a long dis-
tance phone call, the line must be capable of placing long distance calls for the call to go through. When finished pro-
gramming, it is very important to set DIP switch 3 back to ON (normal operating mode), and place a test emergency
call to be sure all programming was done properly.
Warning:
Failure to set DIP switch 3 back to ON when finished programming will cause the
1600A Series
phone to
only call Viking Technical Support, instead of your programmed emergency number.
