Communicator Call Direction Options

This section determines which communications buffer is used when sending transmissions. Communications
Buffer 1 consists of the First and Second Telephone Numbers. The Second Telephone Number is only used when
alternate dialing is enabled. The dialer will alternate between the First and Second Telephone Numbers only.
Communication Buffer 2 consists of the Third Telephone Number only.
There are four dialer call direction options:
[0] No transmissions for this group
[1] Use Communications Buffer 1 only
[2] Use Communications Buffer 2 only
[3] Use both Communications Buffers
After entering the section number, enter [0], [1], [2] or [3] for each of the following reporting code groups in the order
given (total of six digits).
• Zone Group A Alarms, Tampers and Restorals
• Zone Group B Alarms, Tampers and Restorals
• Access Codes Group A Openings and Closings
• Access Codes Group B Openings and Closings
• Priority Alarms and Restorals
• Maintenance Alarms and Restorals
All six digits must be entered for the system to record the new call directions. If the [#] key is pressed before
all six digits are entered, any new entries will be ignored.
NOTE: When enabled, alternate dialing will only occur for groups using Communication Buffer 1. For example, if Group
A is programmed to use both buffers, the dialer will alternate between the First and Second Telephone Numbers
(Communication Buffer 1) before calling the Third Telephone Number (Communication Buffer 2).
Where all reporting codes are to be sent using one communication buffer, enter [1] for all of the above groups.

PO1, PO2 and AUX-IN Input Options

The Auxiliary Input Zone, PO1, and PO2 outputs have options which are programmed in this section. Program four
digits in this section. The first digit configures PO1, the second digit configures PO2, and the last 2 digits configure
the Auxiliary Input Zone.
• PO1 can control the PC16OUT Module or any Programmable output option described below.
• PO2 can control a Printer or any Programmable output option described below.
Programmable Options for PO1 and PO2
[0] Ground Start Pulse: This option provides a 2-second switch to ground before dialling begins to obtain the dial
tone on Ground Start telephone equipment.
[1] Utility Output, any Access Code: This output can be activated from the keypad by the user. When activated, the
PO output will switch to ground for 5 seconds and the keypad buzzer will sound.
To activate a utility output on PO1, enter [ ][7][1][any Access Code]
To activate a utility output on PO2, enter [ ][7][2][any Access Code]
[2] Strobe Output (Latched alarm output): The PO terminal switches to ground after an alarm and remains switched
ON until the system is disarmed.
[3] 20-minute Latched Alarm Output: The PO terminal latches ON for 20 minutes on a zone alarm. Entering any valid
Access Code will reset the output.
[4] System Status (Arm/Disarm) Output: The PO terminal switches to ground when the system is armed. The PO
terminal will be opened when the system is disarmed.
[5] Keypad Buzzer Follow Mode: The PO terminal switches to ground when the keypad sounder is ON. The PO
terminal will remain switched for as long as the keypad sounder is ON.
[6] Courtesy Pulse: The PO terminal switches to ground during the Entry and Exit Delay times. This function could
be used to operate a light or other device near the entry/exit door for the duration of the Entry and Exit times.
[7] Entry Delay Follower: The PO terminal switches to ground for the duration of the Entry Delay.
[8] Exit Delay Follower: The PO terminal switches to ground for the duration of the Exit Delay.
[9] PO Flashes during Exit Delay / PO ON if in Alarm: This option causes the PO terminal to pulse for the duration
of the Exit delay. Once fully armed the PO will deactivate. If an alarm occurs, the PO will activate steadily. The output
is deactivated on disarming. Note that only Burglary, Fire and [F] Key zones will activate the PO.
