Application Note
K-2000-DVA Compatibility with
The K-2000-DVA Digital Announcer is
designed to be fully compatible with the
Viking models RC-2A and RC-3 remote
DTMF controllers. No conflicts between the
devices will occur, provided that both units
RC-3
are accessed using the operation and
programming guidelines described below.
Important Potential Conflicts - The RC-3 may be programmed while on-line with
the K-2000-DVA. However, due to potential Touch Tone conflicts, programming
of the K-2000-DVA should NOT be attempted while on-line with RC-2A or RC-3.
Programming of the K-2000-DVA via the RS-232 port is unaffected by this conflict
RC-2A
and is the preferred method of programming.
