Before customizing a dial-up connection, check your alarm station definition, as explained
in Dial-Up Connection to an Alarm Station
You do not need to customize a long distance code when a unit uses regular long distance.
One or many such sites can call-in alarms to the same alarm station without concern.
By default, Multi makes local calls when long distance codes match. You can add a long
distance or toll-free code, site-by-site, as needed, in the Update Station to Call in Case of
Alarms dialog box. See Figure
Alarm Station on page 59.
Irregular Area Code Use
Why customize? When a unit is not in the same area code as its alarm station. Sometimes
a local call can be used when the alarm station is close by.
You can customize an alarm station's:
• Long distance codes, for irregular and toll-free uses.
• Dialing speed, by using a delay code.
- and/or -
• Telephone exchange, at the Rapid Eye site or at the alarm station.
A copy of the telephone number in the alarm station definition is available for customization
at each site definition, in the Report Alarms to these Alarm Stations pane. For example,
11-8, long distance and Chicago area codes 1 773 were added to the local
in Figure
number, for a site that requires an irregular long distance call within one area code. A
customized number is not shared with other sites. The customization is shown by an
asterisk.
