Operation By Telephone - PSA Supa8 User Manual

Operation by Telephone

Your SUPA8 alarm panel may have been set up to allow you to telephone the
system to determine if it is ON or OFF. You can also turn the system ON or
OFF remotely by telephone. The call can be made from any telephone capable
of tone dialling, including DTMF-capable mobile telephones. To operate your
system by a telephone call, follow the steps below:
1. Ring the number that your SUPA8 is connected to. In most cases that will
be your home telephone number.
2. After 15 rings, or the programmed number of rings, the SUPA8 will answer
the phone. If the SUPA8 is OFF only one beep will be heard.
If the call is cut off before 15 rings (either because the telephone network
will not allow 15 rings or an answering machine is connected and keeps
intercepting the call), immediately hang up and call the system back. It
remembers the number of rings for 45 seconds after a call attempt has
been terminated. It will continue to count rings through repeated attempts
until either 15 rings have occurred or more than 45 seconds has elapsed
without a ring. (If you only want to check the ON/OFF status of the SUPA8,
without making any change, simply hang up after you hear the beep or
beeps.)
3. If you want to turn the SUPA8 ON, enter your 4 digit user code followed by
9
the key on your telephone keypad. If you make a mistake then press

the key and try again.
4. If you want to turn the SUPA8 OFF, enter your 4 digit user code followed
0
by the key on your telephone keypad. If you make a mistake then

5. The key may now be used to hang-up the SUPA8.
NOTE: If the SUPA8 needs to ring the monitoring station as a result of turning
ON or OFF the panel then you should hang-up immediately to allow the call to
proceed.
