Pager Programming

The system can send various reports to several pagers (VISTA-20P = up to 4; VISTA-15P = up to 2).
To program pager reporting, do the following:
1. Enter the appropriate information in the following data fields:
*160, *163, *166, *169 Pager Phone Numbers (for pagers 1-4
*161, *164, *167, *170 Pager Prefix Characters (for pagers 1-4
*162, *165, *168, *171 Pager Reporting Options by Partition
2. Enable Pager Delay, if desired, in field *172 (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 partition 1 will, if
enabled, attempt to report to all pagers enabled for open/close reporting in partition 1. Users that
perform actions in partition 2 will, if enabled, attempt to report to all pagers enabled for
open/close reporting in partition 2.
4. If using latchkey pager report, define the latchkey 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 on next page.
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 9-12
