Description
Determines the audio mode.

audio session.
2 (Callback) = Panel hangs up and waits for a callback from the
central station operator before starting an audio session.
Off = No audio verification.
Determines whether system fire sirens are silenced during a two-
way audio session (on), or not (off). Beeps sound every 10 seconds
while sirens are silenced.
Determines whether the central station operator can talk to the
user during a silent alarm (off), or just listen in on the premises (on).
Silent alarms occur when sensors learned into groups 02 or 03 are
tripped, when the duress code is entered, or when the panel Police
button is pressed and the silent panel police panic option is turned
on.
Determines the receiver gain level during two-way audio sessions.
If the VOX is switching the speaker on when the central station
operator is not talking, lower both this setting and the VOX mic gain
setting. If the VOX is not switching the speaker on when the central
station operator is talking, raise this setting and lower the VOX mic
gain setting. Changing this setting does not affect speaker volume.
Determines the mic gain (sensitivity) that triggers the voice-
activated switching (VOX). Room size, acoustics, and furnishings
where the panel is located will influence the setting. Gain range is
01 (lowest) to 64 (highest).
Determines the gain range for voice-activated switching (VOX).
Range is 01 (lowest) to 64 (highest). For best results, this option
should be set equal to or greater than VOX mic gain.
This option works in conjunction with VOX mic gain. It is important
to follow the setting recommendations as described to achieve
acceptable operation.
Determines the gain level (sensitivity) during two-way audio
sessions when audio mode is set to 0 or 1 (speak). Room size,
acoustics, and furnishings when the panel is located will influence
the setting. Gain range is 01 (lowest) to 64 (highest).
Turning this option on will enable an AVM session to be initiated
following a fire or CO alarm.
Turning this option off inhibits the initiation of an AVM session
following a fire or CO alarm.
