LOCATION 15 - DIAL ATTEMPTS/BACKUP CONTROL FOR PHONE #3 (2 segments, numerical data)
Segment 1, Dial Attempts: Segment 1 of Location 15 is used to enter the number of dial attempts (1 to 15 attempts)
the communicator will try to Phone #3 before ending the notification process. Factory default is "8" and the
communicator will make the same number of attempts as those programmed in location 3.
Segment 2, Phone # 3 Backup Control: Programming a "0" in Segment 2 of this location will cause the NX-8 to
make the designated number of attempts to Phone #2 before setting the "Fail To Communicate" condition and stop
reporting. Programming a "1" in this segment will cause the NX-8 to stop trying to communicate after the designated
number of attempts have been made to Phone #3. If a "2" is programmed in this segment, it will cause the NX-8 to
make the dial attempts in increments of two. The first two attempts will be made to Phone #3, the next two attempts to
Phone #2, then repeating until the total number of attempts designated in Segment 1 is completed.
REPORTING EVENTS TO PHONE NUMBER 3
Phone #3 can be used for a third receiver to multi-report or split report events. Phone #3 has two programming
locations that are used to select which events are reported to this phone number. Location 16 is used to select which
events are reported to Phone #3, and Location 17 is used to select which partitions are reported to Phone #3. If dual
or split reporting is not desired, location 16 and location 17 should be left at the factory default of "0". If multi-reporting
or split reporting is desired and the split is based on the event type (such as alarm, open/close, etc.), then location 16
should be used to select only those events that should be reported to Phone #3 and location 17 should be left at the
factory default of "0". If dual or split reporting is desired, and the split is based on partition, then location 16 should be
programmed to "0" and location 17 should be used to select those partitions that should be reported to Phone #3. If
no events should be reported to Phone #3, both locations should be "0".
