  • Page 12: Functional Description

    “DTMF” or “2-Tone” must be selected via the CARD Suite programming software. While in the “off” state, the speaker assembly detects the presence of a page closure (Model 13352) or carrier-detect (Models 13362/13372) and becomes activated. The speaker assembly waits for the preprogrammed code to enable the speaker amplifier.
