24.5.1 Parameter Description
The ring count sets the number of rings the panel waits before picking up and seizing the phone line for a remote programming
session, or for remote arming with a telephone (see Section 28.1 Arming Options 1 on page 55).
The panel will not seize the phone line for remote programming or remote arming with telephone when this parameter is set to
zero (0).
This ring count is used for any panel arming state, armed or disarmed.
The Answering Machine Bypass function can be restricted to only operate when the system is armed All On or Perimeter Only
(see Section 28.1 Arming Options 1 on page 55). When the Answering Machine Bypass function is restricted to only operate
when the system is armed Normal or Perimeter Only, the panel will not answer the phone for a remote arming session when it
is disarmed (Off). However, [#] + [4] + [3] can still initiate a remote programming session.
