COMMUNICATION FAULTS
Solution
If modem not present, ensure that "Disable Digi"
option is set to 'YES' and "DOWNLOAD MODE" is
set to 'NONE' or 'RS232'.

inserted correctly and complete initialisation by
pressing End Station 'RESET' button for 2
seconds.
Check ALL call details are programmed correctly.
Ensure signalling format is correctly set for ARC
receiver.
If only one call number programmed, ensure
"STOP ON SUCCESS" = 'YES' and "TRY SAME"
is selected – NOT "TRY NEXT".
to communicate Ensure Digi is enabled, and at least one SMS call
