Reporting Events To Phone Number 3 - GE NetworX NX-8-EUR Installation Manual

LOCATION 14 - COMMUNICATOR FORMAT FOR PHONE N° 3 (1 segment, numerical data)
Location 14 contains the communicator format used to transmit to the receiver that is
connected to phone N°3. Consult the instruction manual for your central station receiver in
order to determine which format is compatible, and select from the 15 formats listed on page
33. If you require a format other than those listed, review the override options described in
location 18 to create the appropriate format. In order to create a special format, a "15" must
be programmed in location 14, in addition to the entries in location 18. If this location contains
a "0", format 1 will be used when phone N°3 is dialled.
LOCATION 15 - DIAL ATTEMPTS/BACKUP CONTROL FOR PHONE N° 3 (2 segments, numerical data)
Segment 1, Dial Attempts: Segment 1 of location 15 is used to enter the number of dial
attempts (1 to 15) that the communicator will make to phone N°3 before it ends the
notification process. Factory default is "0", and the communicator will make the same number
of attempts as those programmed in location 3.
There will be a waiting time of 12 seconds between the first two dial attempts, and a
waiting time of 60 seconds between each subsequent dial attempt (regardless of the
number dialled).
Segment 2, Phone # 3 Backup Control: Programming a "0" in segment 2 of this location will
cause the NX-8 to make the designated number of attempts to phone N°2 before setting the
"Fail To Communicate" condition and stop reporting. Programming a "1" in this segment will
cause the NX-8 to stop trying to communicate after the designated number of attempts have
been made to phone N°3. If a "2" is programmed in this segment, it will cause the NX-8 to
make the dial attempts in increments of two. The first two attempts will be made to phone
N°3, the next two attempts to phone N°2, then repeating until the total number of attempts
designated in segment 1 is completed.

Reporting events to phone number 3

Phone N°3 can be used as a third receiver to multi-report or split report events. Phone N°3 has
two programming locations that are used to select the events that are reported to this phone
number. Location 16 is used to select which events are reported to phone N°3, and location 17
is used to select which partitions are reported to phone N°3. If you do not want dual or split
reporting, location 16 and location 17 should be left at the factory default of "0". If you want
multi-reporting or split reporting, and the split is based on the event type (such as alarm,
open/close, etc.), then location 16 should be used to select only those events that should be
reported to phone N°3, and location 17 should be left at the factory default of "0". If you want
dual or split reporting, and the split is based on partition, then location 16 should be
programmed to "0" and location 17 should be used to select those partitions that are to be
reported to phone N°3. If no events are to be reported to phone N°3, both locations should be
at "0".
