failure.
•
The customer's (subscriber) account number(s) to be reported to each monitoring station.
•
The telephone numbers, IP addresses and SMS numbers and reporting formats of the corresponding alarm
receivers at the two Monitoring Stations C.S.1 and C.S.2 and the number of reporting retry attempts in case
of failure to report.
•
The communication Auto Tests and communication Fail reports.

the lowest priority.
If the system is equipped also with Cellular communicators, you must define which of
the communicating channels (i.e. Cellular or PSTN) the system will use as the main
channel (i.e. 1
st
priority) for reporting event messages to Monitoring Stations, and if the
main channel fails, which channels will be used in the 2
nd
and 3
rd
reporting priorities.
Enter the "1
st
RPRT CHAN"; option and define which of the communication channels
the system will use as the main reporting channel. If you wish to define also backup
reporting channels, enter the "2nd RPRT CHAN" and "3rd RPRT CHAN" options and
define them as well.
