7. Domestic Dialer reporting

Domestic Dialer reporting enables Area Open/Close and Alarm reports to be sent to a normal Telephone or
Mobile Phone. Consult your installer to ascertain whether your system has Domestic dialing enabled, and
whether a DTMF Card is fitted on your system.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If the system is programmed to report to a Central Monitoring Station, your Installer must enable the "Dual
Reporting" option if Domestic dialing is also required.
The way in which Domestic Dialing reports are acknowledged depends on whether or not a DTMF Card is
fitted to your system. (A DTMF Card is normally fitted to provide Telephone Remote Control - See page 26)
See "Acknowledging the report" below for details of the acknowledge methods.
OPERATION:
1) Receiving the report.
When the report is received by the remote Telephone, the Telephone user will hear:
- Beeps of the same tone to indicate an Area Opening or Closing event.
- Beeps of 2 different tones to indicate an Alarm Event.
2) Acknowledging the report.
a) No DTMF Card fitted.
The alarm is acknowledged by the receiving telephone answering the call.
The Telephone User does not have to perform any operation to acknowledge the alarm.
Once the alarm signal is heard, the User can simply hang-up the telephone.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
-Once the receiving telephone has answered the call, the alarm message is regarded as being acknowledged
and will not be sent again, regardless of whether a User has heard the alarm signal or not.
-This means that if an Answering Machine, Fax machine or similar device answers the call, the alarm will still
be regarded as being acknowledged.
-If this feature is used, care must be excercised in selecting appropriate telephone numbers to ensure that
the alarm signal will be heard by an appropriate User.
b) DTMF Card fitted.
The alarm is acknowledged by the Telephone User pressing the "#" key on the Telepone keypad during the
quiet period between the report tones.
