USER FUNCTIONS
Speaker Phone Feature
If this feature has been programmed the LYNXRIEN-EA is capable of operating as a speaker phone.
During speaker phone operation the system will provide the following functions:
•
All function/event processing will continue to operate, but there will be no announcements.
•
The ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs will alternately blink.
•
"PH" will be displayed.
NOTE: The system will enter the Speaker phone mode even if an alarm or trouble is stored in the system memory.
Although "PH" may not appear, the LEDs will alternately blink indicating you are currently in the
Speaker Phone mode.
Do not use the speaker phone as the only telephone in your home since in some special cases the
speaker phone is not functional.

•
The feature has not been programmed.
•
A report is being sent.
•
An audible alarm is present.
•
An announcement is being made or a recorded message is being played back.

Using the Speaker Phone Feature
When the LYNXRIEN-EA is operating in the speaker phone mode the system keypad functions as a
telephone keypad and the only security keypad functions that will remain enabled are the panic keys
and the speaker volume control. (refer to Volume Adjustment section) You may adjust the volume
before entering speaker phone mode or after dialing the desired number. In the speaker phone mode, if
a zone is violated and has triggered an entry/exit delay, the system will automatically change the
keypad from telephone to security mode. This allows the user to disarm the system or take other
appropriate actions in the security mode without interrupting the telephone session. To regain
telephone keypad control (i.e.: to enter an account number or menu selection) you will need to
reactivate the telephone keypad.
