2.3.3 Phone / Intercom Mode

The 1812 is normally connected in series with a residents incoming phone line, which supplies a
constant source of DC voltage. When the 1812 is connected in this manner, program the unit for
PHONE mode.
If the 1812 is to be connected to an open C.O. (Central Office) port on a key type telephone system,
or if the 1812 is connected directly to another telephone without a C.O. line, program the unit for
INTERCOM mode. When programmed in intercom mode, the 1812 will supply the constant DC
voltage necessary for operation and will disconnect the PHIN terminals from the circuit since these
are not used in intercom mode.
If the 1812 is programmed for the intercom mode, the call forwarding and preprogrammed dial-out
phone number features will not work.
1. Press * 0 6 and enter the four-digit MASTER CODE _ _ _ _ (beep).
2. Press 1 * (beep) for phone mode, or press 0 * (beep) for intercom mode.
3. Press 0# TOGETHER to end the programming step (beeeeeep).

2.3.4 Talk Time

This programming sequence sets the maximum time allowed for conversation when the entry system
places a call to the residents house, or if call forwarding is active, or if any of the three dial out
numbers are used. The talk can be set from 1 second up to 255 seconds (4 minutes, 15 seconds)
and is entered as a three-digit number. For example, to set a talk time of 30 seconds, enter 030 in
step 3.
1. Press * 0 8 and enter the four-digit MASTER CODE _ _ _ _ (beep).
2. Enter the three-digit talk time code _ _ _ then press * (beep).
3. Press 0# TOGETHER to end this programming step (beeeeeep).

2.3.5 Answer Incoming Call

The 1812 can be programmed to answer calls placed to the residence from an outside phone line.
When this feature is turned on, the 1812 will pick-up the call after the number of rings programmed in
section 2.3.6. This then allows remote programming or remote relay activation of the system. If this
feature is turned off, the 1812 will not answer any call regardless of the number of rings programmed
in 2.3.6.
1. Press * 1 5 and enter the four-digit MASTER CODE _ _ _ _ (beep).
2. Press 0 * (beep) to turn this feature off, or press 1 * (beep) to turn this feature on.
3. Press 0# TOGETHER to end this programming step (beeeeeep).
