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:

2. Enable Pager Delay, if desired, in field *172 (delays alarm reporting for ALL pagers).
3. Disable appropriate user open/close pager reports using the user attribute command
(master code + [8] + user no. + [#] [5] + [0]). 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 paragraph on
the 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
