Viking E-1600 Application Note

Application Note
Using the 1600 Series
Phones with Central
K-1600-EHF
The standard 1600 emergency phone is factory programmed to communicate using the Ademco "Contact I.D.", "Ademco
High Speed", "DTMF 4+1 Express", or the "DTMF 4+2 Express" formats. All formats use the programming memory
location #20 to store the account code and alarm details.
A. Programming Features
1. Accessing the programming mode
Before programming, you must access the programming mode (see 1600 Series Technical Practice, section
A).
2. Enabling/Disabling Central Station Mode
The 1600 series emergency phone can be placed in the "central station mode" by entering a
programming. To cancel the "central station mode," enter 0 (see 1600 Series Technical Practice, section F).
3. Ring Delay
When the 1600 series emergency phone is in the central station mode, it is best to have the ring delay set to a
minimum of three. Some receivers send a long tone after answering the line that sounds like a ring back, and if
the 1600 is set to a ring delay of two, the phone will disconnect (see 1600 Series Technical Practice, section G,
setting D).
4. Primary and Secondary Speed Dial Numbers
The 1600 series phone can be programmed to dial a central station receiver
only, or dial a voice number first, and if no answer, then dial the central station
receiver. When calling the first number (memory position 00), the phone stays
in "two-way talk mode" allowing two-way conversation. When calling the second
number (memory position 01), the phone is in a "listen only mode" in order to
interpret the hand shake signal of the receiver (see 1600 Series Technical
Practice, sections C and D).
Note: If only a central station is to be dialed, the central station phone number must be preprogrammed in
memory location 01 and memory location 00 must be cleared.

combination with the 1600 Series Technical
Practice (Fax Back Document 215).
The 1600 series of emergency telephones
have the capability to communicate directly
with central station receivers. In this mode,
the emergency phone will automatically relay
vital information to compatible equipment at
central alarm monitoring stations.
Once the receiver has issued the proper
acknowledgement
CONNECTED" indicator on the front of the
emergency phone will light, and the 1 6 0 0
phone will then switch to two-way voice.
