General Operation
until alarm bell timeout occurs. If your system is connected to a central monitoring station, an alarm
message will be sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply disarm the system. The zone(s) causing the
alarm remain displayed indicating memory of alarm. Refer to the DISARMING THE SYSTEM section
for information about clearing the memory of alarm display
Two-Way Voice Feature
The LYNXRIEN-EA supports voice dialog between an operator at the central station and an individual
at the premises. This feature allows the central station to listen, talk to or conduct a two-way
conversation with an individual(s) at the premises and allows the operator to gather information about
the nature and location of the alarm that may be helpful in responding to fire, police or rescue
departments. If the Two-way Voice Feature has been programmed and an alarm condition is detected
the system sends an alarm message to the central station. After acknowledgement is received, a "listen
in to follow" message is sent to the central station. By responding to this message the central station
operator can enter commands that allow him to initiate a 5-minute voice session. The options allow the
operator to enter the following modes:
• Talk: Allows the operator to speak to individuals at the premises through the system speaker.
• VOX (2-way voice): Allows the operator to hold a two-way (speak and listen) conversation with
individuals at the premises.
• Listen: Allows the operator to listen to any activity at the premises through the system microphone.
If a subsequent zone is violated during a voice session, the system will terminate the session and
process the alarm. During the voice session, the ARMED (red) and READY (green) LEDs will
alternately blink in the Talk and VOX Modes but not during Listen Mode.
