General Information
The VISTA-128B supports sending messages to a pager using the 4100APG Pager Interface.
The 4100APG transmit to the pager any message programmed to be sent to the event log
printer, even if the printer is not being used.
The types of messages are divided into 6 categories: Alarms; Troubles; Bypasses;
Openings/Closings; System and Test. Each type has its own programming field for the pager
phone number and pager ID. This allows each message either to be sent to a different paging
service or to the same service.
The 4100APG will hang up between each message. Multiple messages will be sent in the
order received. If the 4100APG cannot make contact with the paging service, it will retry up
to 10 times. If the interface loses contact with the VISTA-128B, it will send a message to the
paging service to notify the user.
The pager interface must be wired to a different phone line than the VISTA-128B itself. Otherwise,
the communication of both will not function properly.

The 4100APG may be mounted either inside or outside the control cabinet.
Do not mount the 4100APG on the cabinet door or attempt to attach it to the PC board.
