Unlike regular telephone conversations, in which you can
interject a few words while the other party speaks, this
system allows one way speech at a time. Back and forth
exchange of uninterrupted speech between two parties is
a method normally used in military, commercial and
amateur radio communication. Once you finish talking
you should say “Go Ahead” or “Over” and then switch
from speak-out to listen in. When the person at home
finishes talking he should also say “Over”, as a cue to
you to switch back from Listen-in to speak out.
EXAMPLE:
You (at remote telephone):
☞
[1], “Hey, George, can
you hear me? Are you in any trouble? Over”.....
☞
[3]
Person at home: “Yes, I am. I had a dizzy spell while
trying to get out of bed and fell on the floor. I am unable to
get up and my thigh hurts. Can you help me? Over”...
You (at remote telephone):
☞
[1], “Sure, I will send
someone right away, stay put - over”.....
☞
[3].
Person at home: “Thanks, please hurry, over.”.
You (at remote telephone):
☞
[1], “All right, over and
out”.....
☞

Important! If you wish to exit the two-way communication
mode and execute another command, just press ['] and
then key your user code followed by the command (see
“keying sequences” in Para. 6.3 B above).
6.6 Receiving Messages at a Remote
Telephone
The PowerArt™ can be programmed by the installer for
selective transmission of messages to private telephone
subscribers. Messages are divided by type into 3 groups:
Group Events Reported
1 Fire, Burglary, Panic, Tamper
2 Arming AWAY, Arming HOME, Disarming
3 No-activity, Emergency, Latchkey
Group 1 has the highest priority and group 3 has the
lowest priority.
When the called party answers a call initiated by the
PowerArt™, he will hear a verbal message composed of
the “house identity” and the type of event that occurred.
For example, once smoke is detected in the Smith
residence, the message will be:
[The Smith Residence - Fire Alarm].
If a person under surveillance in the Watkins residence
has been inactive, the message will be:
[The Watkins Residence - No Activity].
The called party must acknowledge the message (as
explained later on), but if he does not respond, the
message will be transmitted repeatedly as many times as
possible within a 45-second time limit. When the 45
seconds are up, the PowerArt™ will disengage the line
and call the next private telephone number on its list.
The called party can acknowledge the message by
pressing a digit on the telephone keypad, as listed below:
Digit Effect
2 Acknowledge only: The PowerArt™ disengages
the line and considers the event duly reported.
3 Acknowledge and listen-in: The protected site is
“bugged” for sound for 60 seconds. The called
party may prolong the listening session by
pressing [3] again before the PowerArt™ dis-
engages the line, or by pressing [1] to speak.
1 Acknowledge and speak out: The called party
may speak for 60 seconds to whoever is in the
protected site. The called party may prolong the
“speak out” session by pressing [1] again before
the PowerArt™ disengages the line, or by
pressing [3] to listen.
9 Acknowledge and request a status report: The
PowerArt™ will issue a verbal report of system
status. For example:
[Disarm - ready to arm] or
[Disarm - back door open] or
[Disarm - alarm in memory].
6.7 Receiving Messages Via a Pager
Since the PowerArt™ can be programmed to report events
to a pager, the user of the pager must be informed on how
to interpret the numerical message that his pager displays.
Communication with a pager takes place as follows:
• The PowerArt™ dials the pager’s phone number, waits 5
seconds and sends the numerical message.
• The message transmitted by the PowerArt™ to the
pager is actually a string of digits, as exemplified in
Figure 8 below.
Figure 8. Pager Message Structure
The person receiving the message sees only the “YYY
-00ZZ” part of the message, which he can interpret by
using the following legend:
Events types (YYY) are coded as follows:
Event Code Event Code
Alarm 919 Fire 515
Trouble 818 Close 101
Emergency 717 Open 102
Panic 616 Latchkey 103
ZZ is the zone number in which the event occurred, or the
user number in case of Close, Open and Latchkey events.
Example 1: Message reads “919-0003”:
This means an alarm occurred in Zone No. 3.
Example 1: Message reads “101-0008”:
This means the system was closed (armed) by user No. 8.
6.8 Conducting a Walk Test
The walk test is an indispensable operation by which you
verify that all detectors function properly, without distur-
bing the neighbors with loud sirens. The test must be
performed at least once a week, and should include all
detectors in all zones.
Note: During the test period, 24-hour zones will not cause
an alarm if violated, but a fire zone will function normally.
A typical test will take place as follows:
A . Press the test button (
☞
).
B . The display will prompt you for your user code:
ENTER CODE ___
C . Enter your code. The siren will sound for 2 seconds
and the display will change to:
