digits long, program all 6 segments. If this location is left unprogrammed, account code 1 will be
used when the second phone number is dialled.
LOCATION 8 - COMMUNICATOR FORMAT FOR PHONE N° 2 (1 segment, numerical data)
Location 8 contains the communicator format used to transmit to the receiver that is connected to
phone N°2. Consult the instruction manual for your central station receiver in order to determine
which format is compatible. See Appendix 3 for all available format selections. If you require a
format other than those listed, review the override options described in Location 18 to create the
appropriate format. In order to create a special format, a "15" must be programmed in location 8, in
addition to the entries in location 18. If this location contains a "0", format 1 will be used when
phone N°2 is dialled.
LOCATION 9 - DIAL ATTEMPTS/BACKUP CONTROL FOR PHONE N° 2 (2 segments, numerical
data)
Segment 1, dial attempts: Segment 1 of location 9 is used to enter the number of dial attempts (1 to
15 attempts) that the communicator will make to phone N°2 before it ends the notification process.
Factory default is "0", and the communicator will make the same number of attempts as those
programmed in location 3.
Note: There will be a waiting time of 12 seconds between the first two dial attempts, and a waiting time of 60 seconds
between each subsequent dial attempt (regardless of the number dialled).
Segment 2, phone N° 2 backup control: Programming a "0" in segment 2 of this location will cause
the NetworX V3 to make the designated number of attempts to phone N°1 before setting the "fail to
communicate" condition and stop reporting. Programming a "1" in this segment will cause the
NetworX V3 to stop trying to communicate after the designated number of attempts have been made
to phone N°2. If a "2" is programmed in this segment, it will cause the NetworX V3 to make the dial
attempts in increments of two. The first two attempts will be made to phone N°2, the next two
attempts to phone N°1, then repeating until the total number of attempts designated in segment 1 is
completed.

Reporting events to phone number 2

Phone N°2 can be used to back up phone N°1, or as a second receiver to multi-report or split-report
events. Phone N°2 has two programming locations that are used to select the events that are reported
to this phone number. Location 10 is used to select the events which are reported to phone N°2, and
location 11 is used to select which partitions are reported to phone N°2. If you do not want dual or
split reporting, location 10 and location 11 should be left at the factory default of "0". If you want
multi-reporting or split reporting, and the split is based on the event type (such as alarm, open close
etc.), location 10 should be used to select only those events that should be reported to phone N°2, and
location 11 should be left at the factory default of "0". If you want dual or split reporting, and the
split is based on partition, then location 10 should be programmed as "0", and location 11 should be
used to select those partitions that are to be reported to phone N°2. If no events are to be reported to
phone N°2, both locations should be at "0".
