The following two options define how the control panel answers an incoming call from a computer using the WinLoad Software for
Windows®.
12.1.1 A
NSWERING
S e c t i o n [ 0 7 7 ]
000 = Disabled, 010 to 255 seconds, Default = disabled
When using the WinLoad software to communicate remotely with an installation site that uses an answering machine
or service, the answering machine override must be programmed. Using the WinLoad software you will call the control
panel, hang up, then call back. If the installation site is called back within the programmed delay period, the control
panel will override the answering machine or service by picking-up the line after the first ring on the second call. You
must wait at least 10 seconds before attempting the second call, otherwise, the control panel will think it is the same
call. For details on how to use the WinLoad software, refer to the WinLoad Help Manual.
Example: A security installation is using an answering machine set to answer after three rings. If section
[077] has been programmed with 040 (40 seconds) and the second call is made within 40 seconds, the
control panel will pick up the line on the first ring. If it takes more than 40 seconds, the control panel will not
answer on the first ring and the answering machine will answer after three rings.
12.1.2 N
UMBER OF
S e c t i o n [ 0 7 8 ]
000 = disabled, 001 to 015 rings, Default = 8 rings
This value represents the number of rings the control panel will wait before picking-up the line. If the line is not
answered after the number of programmed rings, the control panel will answer the call. You must wait at least 10
seconds before attempting the second call or the control panel will think it is the same call.

S e c t i o n [ 1 4 1 ]
0000 to FFFF
This 4-digit code identifies the control panel to the WinLoad software before initiating communication. The control panel will verify
that the Panel Identifier in the WinLoad software is the same. If the codes do not match, the control panel will not establish
communication. Therefore, be sure to program the same panel identifier into both the Spectra control panel and the WinLoad
software.

S e c t i o n [ 1 4 2 ]
0000 to FFFF
This 4-digit password identifies the PC to the panel before establishing communication. Program the same PC Password into
both the Spectra control panel and the WinLoad software. If the passwords do not match, the WinLoad software will not establish
communication.
