Communications [56]
Use this option to program the panel communications.
Menu structure
The methodology behind communications programming is to define:
a set of messages (Report) that must be sent.
the list of destinations (receivers) for the messages.
Programming is split into two main sections – ARC alarm signalling (ARC notification),
which is fully monitored, and direct signalling to an end user (User notification).
The top level menu structure is shown below. Each sub-menu heading is exploded and
treated as a separate section later on in the manual.

ARC Notification
This section controls all messages that must be transmitted to an Alarm Receiving Centre
(ARC). The reporting structure can be visualised as follows
Defines the messages that need
to be transmitted
Defines the order of the receivers
and communication paths to try
Pool of receivers and
communication paths
Each report defines a list of messages that must be transmitted to a remote monitoring
station. Multiple reports can be defined if required. For each report several receivers
(Sequence) can be defined to provide back-up alternatives if the first receiver or path is not
available. Each receiver can have a different path (PSTN, GPRS, Ethernet etc.) and/or a
different destination (phone number or IP address).
