Pager Programming

The system can send various reports to up to 2 pagers.
To program pager reporting, do the following:
1. Enter the appropriate information in the following data fields:
*160, *163 Pager Phone Numbers (for pagers 1and 2 respectively)
*161, *164, Pager Prefix Characters (for pagers 1 and 2 respectively)
*162, *165, Pager Reporting Options by Partition † (for pagers 1 and 2 respectively)
2. Enable Pager Delay, if desired, in field *166 (delays alarm reporting for ALL pagers).
3. Enable appropriate user open/close pager reports using the user attribute command
(master code + [8] + user no. + [#] [5] + [1]). Users that perform actions in their assigned
partition will, if enabled, attempt to report to all pagers enabled for open/close reporting in
that partition.
4. If using child-not-home pager report, define the report schedule using Scheduling mode
(master code + [#] [6] [4] then select event type "03").
5. If using a function key to manually send a message to a pager, see Function Keys paragraph
below.
6. If reporting zone alarms and troubles to a pager, use *81 Zone List menu mode to assign the
zones associated with each pager (zone lists 9-11).

Function Keys

To assign functions to the function keys, use *57 Function Key menu mode.
To assign emergency key functions (function key option "00"), first program the respective emergency
zone number (95 for "A" key, 96 for "C" key, 99 for "B" key) with the desired zone type using *56 Zone
Programming mode, then use *57 Function Key menu mode to assign the desired key.
If using a function key to activate a relay action (*57 Menu mode key function 07), use *79 Menu mode
to map the output, and use *80 Menu mode to define the output's action; select system operation type
"66."
If using a function key for a user macro, use *57 menu mode to activate the desired key, then define the
actual macro functions using the user code + [#] + [6] [6] command.

Output Devices

To program a device for manual activation (user code + [#] [7] / [#] [8] + 2-digit device number) or for
scheduled automatic activation, simply map the device using *79 Menu mode.
To program a device to automatically activate upon a system event (or function key), use *79 Menu
mode to map the device, then use *80 Menu mode to define the automated device action.
If the device action is based on more than one zone, use *81 Zone List menu mode to assign the zones.
