ID-4 Programming

Before you begin, take just a moment to organize your thoughts and to think through what you would like the ID-4 to do for you and in what order. A good starting place generally is to list on the Channel Information List all of the functions that the ID-4 will be monitoring at your location.

Please, stop now and list each of the functions or alarm conditions that the ID-4 will be monitoring. Fill in the blanks below with this information now. (EXAMPLE: HIGH WATER OR POWER FAILURE) First, list the type of alarm (up to 16 characters). The next item is "delay". This is the 2 digit delay provided for each alarm condition. Choose from 00 (no delay) to 99 (maximum delay). Enter the value on the blank after delay. Next choose "sec" for seconds delay or "min" for minutes of delay. For example; for a one minute delay enter delay 01 and put a check after min or sec. Next decide what type of contact closure is appropriate for each alarm condition and put a check after the appropriate type. N/O is the abbreviation for normally open contacts while N/C is normally closed contacts. EXAMPLE:

Please complete this information for each channel you wish to monitor. It is not necessary to use all four channels, however, assign a name to each channel even if not planning to use all of them at this time. Sometimes an unused channel is assigned a name like SPARE CHANNEL 1, SPARE CHANNEL 2, or any other name you may choose. This will allow you to activate the channel at a later time with minimum inconvenience.

1.____________________________ delay___ sec__ min__ N/O__ N/C__
2.____________________________ delay___ sec__ min__ N/O__ N/C__
3.____________________________ delay___ sec__ min__ N/O__ N/C__
4.____________________________ delay___ sec__ min__ N/O__ N/C__

The second step in gathering data to program the ID-4 Intelligent Dialer requires you to list the telephone numbers to be dialed when an alarm condition becomes valid. The telephone numbers must be listed in an order which will allow you to build a telephone sequence. This telephone sequence is arranged in an order which will allow you to dial the numbers in the rotation you choose. This may require some shuffling of the telephone numbers to achieve the sequence you desire. The ID-4 has two different dialing sequences which control the order of the telephone numbers to be dialed. This is the sequence of telephone numbers to be dialed during an alarm condition.

Use the list below to enter your telephone numbers. Check each number as either a telephone number or a pager number. This check mark is used in programming the ID-4 to identify a telephone number or a pager number. This differentiation is necessary because the dialer uses one protocol for dialing a pager and a different protocol for dialing telephone numbers. Digital dialer telephone numbers are listed in another place in this manual.

Start the list with the first group of eight telephone numbers to be dialed. Make the list in pencil (because you will probably make several changes). This list will be referred to as our "Master Telephone List". In the listing include "1" or area code, if required, to dial out from the location where the dialer is physically mounted.

Telephone number 1____________________________tel___pager___
Telephone number 2____________________________tel___pager___
Telephone number 3____________________________tel___pager___
Telephone number 4____________________________tel___pager___
Telephone number 5____________________________tel___pager___
Telephone number 6____________________________tel___pager___
Telephone number 7____________________________tel___pager___
Telephone number 8____________________________tel___pager___

Start the list with the second group of eight telephone numbers to be dialed. Make the list in pencil (because you will probably make several changes). This list will be referred to as our "Master Telephone List". In the listing include "1" or area code, if required, to dial out from the location where the dialer is physically mounted.

DEFINITIONS: FOR THE PURPOSE OF ESTABLISHING MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE ID-4 AND YOU, DEFINITIONS ARE LISTED AT THE END OF THIS INSTRUCTIONAL SET.

If your system is not equipped with a digital printer/receiver, please proceed to 1.4.

The ID-4 has two different dialing sequences, sequence #1 and sequence #2. The ID-4 calls selected telephone numbers in sequence #1 until the sequence is completed or an acknowledgment is received. Should no acknowledgment be received, the ID-4 automatically goes to sequence #2 and begins searching for an acknowledge signal from one of the called parties.

The next fill in the blank is to select the sequence in which you would like the ID-4 to dial. EXAMPLE: suppose we want to dial the office first, then the supervisor's home number, and then the pager which is carried by the maintenance person on duty:

The first five telephone numbers on the Master Telephone List might look like this:

To build sequence 1 we would select the desired telephone number we wish to dial and place a {*}; on the numbers we choose not to dial we would place a {#}. In this example select 1, skip 2 and 3, select 4, and select 5. Thus, our calling sequence would be 1,4,5. Our dialing list would look like this.

Any telephone number may be listed in any order in the Master Telephone List, and may be listed several times as required. Sixteen is the maximum number of telephone numbers on the Master Telephone List.

The alarm sequence information is entered by the customer and will be processed by the ID-4 when the Alarm is declared valid. The system will call the telephone numbers selected in sequence #1 and sequence #2 in order. An option is available which will allow sequence #1 to dial during certain hours and sequence #2 to dial during other hours. The actual time that the alarm is declared valid determines which dialing sequence would be used during the dial-out process.

The customer defines the time period during which the sequence 1 will be active. This is generally the work hours. The second time period defined by the customer would control at which time sequence 2 would be active. Example: Sequence 1 is the work hours and sequence 2 is the off work hours. Each sequence could dial a different series of telephone numbers.

Should you require that the alarm notification call different personnel for a specific alarm that ability is available through custom programming which is offered at a nominal rate.

The customer controls which telephone numbers are called by selecting the proper DIALING SEQUENCE 1 or DIALING SEQUENCE 2.

To select a number to be dialed place a star (*) on the line above the number. For a no dial condition place a pound (#). This information will be used later to quickly program the ID-4.

The main menu is set up to provide the user with 5 SUB MENU choices. These choices are:

To access any of the sub-menus simply key the desired sub menu number while in the main menu prompt. Example: If you wanted to enter the TELEPHONE MENU depress key {1} while at the main menu prompt and this will place you in the TELEPHONE MENU. Under the telephone menu there are several choices.

Before proceeding confirm that the memory backup battery is connected ( see initial set up in catalog section number 2). All of the information that was written down in steps 1-4 will now be entered into the ID-4. Entry of information into the ID-4 is done via the telephone hand set furnished with the ID-4. Later, we will discuss how to change information stored in the ID-4 from a touch-tone telephone at any other location. (SEC 7.3)

To enter data it is necessary to temporarily exit the program which continuously monitors alarms or looks for data changes. This is done by depressing the menu push button which is located on the top right side of the ID-4 (item #6 drawing number 3). Please refer to the drawing "Unpacking and initial set up" in this manual to identify the menu push button. Push and hold the momentary push button until the ID-4 has recognized your request. Depending upon where in the program the processor is working the request is recognized in several seconds. Holding the push button for a long period of time will not harm the system. When your request is acknowledged the ID-4 will display the following:

STEP 1. To enter the "Telephone menu" input the number {1} digit on the touch tone pad and wait. The system will deliver a voice message "TELEPHONE MENU", (if the voice message is installed) or a moderate hum like tone (if the message is not programmed). Either way, the ID-4 can be programmed. The voice message is a prompt only and is not required to program the ID-4. After the message (or the tone) the LCD will display another prompt. Be patient, it is programmed for the slowest among us:

This prompt allows the user the option to change the telephone number, review the telephone number or exit the program. If we had arrived here by mistake we would exit by entering the {0} key on the keypad. For practice, key the {0} and see what happens. Enter the {0} key now. As you see, the LCD display went back to display the time and look for valid data. It did not enter a new telephone number.

To access the telephone menu repeat STEP 1 above. This will return you to the prompt:

Depress the {*} key on the touch tone keypad while at this prompt. This will bring us to the below LCD display:

STEP 2. Proceed with the programming of the telephone number after the voice prompt. To proceed with the programming input {*}. The ID-4 will then display the following:

Select either Group #1 or Group #2 by entering a {1} or {2} on the telephone keypad. The display will then show:

STEP 3. Select the sequence number of the telephone number you wish to enter. This number will be on the Master Telephone List. Valid sequence numbers are 1 thru 8 only, other keys or numbers are not valid. You may select any telephone sequence number, but to keep the process flowing smoothly we will select telephone sequence number one (1). Ready to proceed? On the touch tone pad depress the key which corresponds to the telephone sequence number which you wish to enter. In our example depress key {1}. Depress that key now. The following LCD presentation appears:

The next step will be to enter the first digit of the telephone number you plan to enter. From the telephone list which you generated earlier, select telephone number one from the MASTER TELEPHONE LIST. Now select the first digit of the first telephone number. Input that digit with the touch tone keypad. With the entry of the first digit the LCD display will update to the following:

The first line contains the telephone sequence number in this example (1). The second line contains the first digit of telephone number one; in this example (2). Only the first digit is stored on the LCD display at this time. It is designed to work this way. Each of the following digits of the telephone number are entered the same way; use the same typical speed that you would to dial any other touch tone number. Do not try to race or hurry on entering digits. Take your time. The first digit requires a little more time than the remaining digits. When the complete new telephone number is entered, the entire telephone number will then be displayed on the second line of the LCD display. Enter the remaining digits until the last digit has been entered. After the last digit is entered input the {*} key. This tells the ID-4 we are at the end of the sequence for this telephone number, go store the telephone number. If you have not already done so enter the remaining digits of telephone number one and then finish the sequence with the entry of the {*} key. Repeating; all digits after the first digit will not be immediately displayed on the screen. However, once the {*} is input all of the entered digits will be displayed. The telephone numbers do not have a space between digits when entered or displayed.

EXAMPLE: To enter telephone number 134 9876 key the numbers as follows: {1} {3} {4} {9} {8} {7} {6} {*}. The asterisk sign {*} terminates the telephone entry program. The LCD display then displays the following :

This allows the user to examine the telephone number and determine that the number is correct. Once you are finished looking at this menu enter {#} and the ID-4 will return to the MAIN MENU prompt. If you have successfully arrived at this point you have installed the telephone number.

When entering a standard telephone number the {*} which you enter as the last keystroke will not appear in the display. The pager sequence is identified by entered an {*} as the 1st key stroke. This will set the dialer protocol to dial the pager rather than a standard telephone number. The 1st {*} is translated to a "p" on the LCD display and a pager telephone number would look like:

The "p" before the telephone number tells the ID-4 that we want this number to be a pager number and to use the pager dial out protocol. If a pager is to be called enter the {*} key once on the touch tone keypad before entering the pager telephone number. Example: {*} {1} {2} {3} {5} {6} {7} {8}. Note that the sequence is prefixed with the {*} key.

You will use the {#} key to select a delay within the telephone number. Example: to enter telephone number 8 (1 second delay) 345 6789 the input key sequence would look like this:

{8} {#} {3} {4} {5} {6} {7} {8} {9} {*} the {#} key will enter the delay and the {*} will cause the number to be recorded.

Visually check the LCD display to confirm that the number in the LCD display is the number you want. If the telephone number is correct, key {#} to return to the ID-4 Main Menu prompt. When entering digits the ID-4 will allow the user to input up to sixteen (16) digits or characters. At the end of 16 inputs the system automatically enters an EOLC an end of list character {*}, and terminates the data input program.

If the telephone number is incorrect, begin the process over by selecting {1} at the main menu and continue as before. Using the MASTER TELEPHONE LIST enter each telephone number as listed . Complete the entry of each additional telephone number by repeating the procedure until each entry is completed and correct. Each input is done in the same way and at the same speed that you would dial any other touch tone number. Do not try to race or hurry on the entering data. Take your time. The first digit requires a little more time to enter than the remaining digits.

To visually display any telephone number on the LCD display, get the main menu prompt:

At this prompt INPUT the number one {1} and wait for the LCD display and voice prompt to finish the reply prompt. The LCD should now look like :

Depress the {#} key on the touch tone keypad while at this prompt. This will bring us to the below LCD display:

Select either Group #1 or Group #2 by entering a {1} or {2} on the telephone keypad.

At this prompt you may elect to display any of the eight telephone numbers stored in memory. This is done by entering the number which corresponds to the telephone number you wish to display.

EXAMPLE: To review telephone number (1) depress number {1} on the keypad. If the programmed telephone number one was 2334345 the display would look like:

Using the same process it is possible to display any of the other telephone numbers. Remember to exit back to the ID-4 MAIN MENU, input the {#}. Now select another telephone number to review. If the number is not programmed you are likely to get almost anything on the LCD display. This generally means that the number has yet to be programmed and random information is stored in the address space where the telephone number will soon be stored. You can only retrieve that which has been previously programmed. To do anything else would be magic. This system is intelligent but not magic.

As with the previous section we begin at the ID-4 MAIN MENU prompt. Repeating: to get here, momentarily push the menu button until the system recognizes your request. Or input a { #} on the touch tone pad if you are someplace else in the menu program. Ready to proceed? The call out sequence is accessed under the TELEPHONE MENU. To get to the TELEPHONE MENU from the main menu input the digit {1}. This will access the TELEPHONE MENU. If you enter the number {1}, the system will automatically call out the 1st telephone number on the dialing sequence. Place the switch marked local/line in the local position. All announcements will be heard on the telephone handset and the ID-4 speaker but will not be transmitted over the telephone lines. To transmit over telephone lines the local /line switch must be in the line position.

To call out a specific telephone number select {2} rather than {1} under the TELEPHONE MENU. This will allow you to select any programmed telephone number to dial out. The system will respond with an LCD display prompt. The display prompt will read :

At this prompt select the sequence number of the desired telephone number that you wish to dial. As you enter the sequence number, the ID-4 will automatically step through the telephone numbers in the Master telephone list until the matching sequence number is located. When the matching sequence number is found the ID-4 will audibly play each of the tones (DTMF) which correspond to the digits of the telephone number. Without going into great technical detail, the first digit of the telephone number is examined by the system and matched with a pair of tones (two tones played at the same time). The digits determine which DTMF tone is selected. The term DTMF means "Dual Tone Multiple Frequency". This completes the section for entering and playing back the telephone numbers.

To select a sequence number enter {1} at the MAIN MENU prompt. The LCD display will display select desired telephone number.

At this prompt begin the telephone sequence program by inputting {*}. Input an {*} and the display will show the following:

An alternate way to access the telephone sequence program is to select TELEPHONE MENU at the MAIN MENU then input {3}). At this display select either Sequence 1 or Sequence 2.

This selection is accomplished by entering either {1} or {2} depending on which of the sequence numbers is desired. At this time input {1}. The following prompt will appear:

Since {1} was selected above, the following will apply to sequence one. At this prompt there are two options available. Entering a {*} selects the telephone number to dial, and entering a {#} skips the telephone number for this sequence. After your choice is made the display on the top line increments automatically to the next number. The lower LCD display remains unchanged. In this example the next number would be number {2}. The next display would look like:

At this prompt we are still dealing with sequence 1. If you want telephone number 2 to be on the dialing list of sequence 1 then input an {*}. If you desire to skip (do not dial) the telephone number 2 then the input would be {#}. The ID-4 will automatically step through each of the eight telephone numbers on the Master telephone list and you will select a dial or no dial choice for each telephone number. The next step would be to select dial {*} or no dial {#} for the next telephone number (3). Repeat the same process for each of the remaining telephone numbers. There are two telephone sequences with eight telephone choices per sequence. Each sequence is separate and unique. Each sequence may be configured to dial any or all of the telephone numbers in the MASTER TELEPHONE LIST. When the selection for either sequence is completed the program automatically returns to the ID-4 MAIN MENU prompt. Refer to previously selected dialing sequences 1 and 2 on Page 5

To review either telephone sequence 1 or 2, begin at the main menu and when the prompt asks to select sub menu select 1 (TELEPHONE MENU). At the telephone menu prompt the LCD will display:

At this prompt enter either sequence 1 or sequence 2 choice. If the dialing sequence was 1-yes, 2-yes, 3-no, 4-no, 5-yes, 6-no, 7-no, and 8-yes, inputting the {1} will cause the display to update to as follows:

When the {*} is input the LCD will return to the MAIN MENU PROMPT, and will await your next input. As you will notice, if the number is to be dialed on the selected sequence the position corresponding to that number will have an {*}. This indicates that the corresponding telephone number will be dialed if the selected sequence is active at the time of an alarm. If the position has a {#} the corresponding telephone number will not be dialed. As you have already figured out there are eight positions, one for each of the eight telephone numbers available. Should all eight telephone numbers not be used each sequence numbers would be {#} so as not to dial out any telephone numbers of this sequence.

3.10 RESETTING THE COUNTER TO THE FIRST POSITION IN THE TELEPHONE DIALING SEQUENCE.

This is accomplished by entering the TELEPHONE SUB MENU and at the CHANGE OR REVIEW prompt select the {5}. The system will automatically reset the counter and return to the MAIN MENU PROMPT.

To set the time delay between each telephone call, bring up the MAIN MENU prompt. Next select and enter digit number {1} to access the telephone menu.

To access the TIME DELAY PROGRAM at this time enter {6}. This will then display:

At this prompt enter the first digit of the two digit number. For example, if you wanted a one second delay enter {0} then {4}. The digit {04} will give approximately a one second delay between calls. The default value is {06}. At this time enter the first digit and when the LCD resets to the same display enter the second digit. At the end of the second digit the system will display the value selected and the next entry of {*} will reset the LCD to the Main Menu prompt.

To review and display on the LCD display window the current value (see Table 13.6, Page 49 )for the time allowed after message before hang-up, access the MAIN MENU prompt. At the MAIN MENU prompt enter the digit {1} to access the TELEPHONE MENU. The following display will appear in the LCD window:

At this display enter the first digit of the delay (example zero for 04 delay). The display will reset to the same window. Now enter the second "Digit" of the two digit pair {4}. When we have entered both digits of the two digit delay (0 and 4) the following LCD display appears:

The value for the CALL OUT DELAY is "04" and this is automatically displayed on the second digit input. An "04" CURRENT SEQUENCE DELAY is equal to a 20 second time window for response. (See Table 13.6, Page 49 for other values). After reviewing the data any key input {*/#} will return the display to the MAIN MENU.

This program is used to establish the number of ring attempts the ID-4 will dial before abandoning the calling attempt because of a "no answer condition".

To select the number of rings of the telephone before hang-up, access the MAIN MENU. At the MAIN MENU prompt enter {1} to access the TELEPHONE MENU. Now enter {7}. At this time the following LCD display will appear:

At this prompt select either {*} for CHANGE or {#} for REVIEW. If you selected {*} CHANGE, the following display will be presented on the LCD unit:

At this prompt enter the first of two digits which will define the number of rings. After the first digit is entered the LCD display will roll and again display the same prompt. At the second prompt enter the second digit. Example: If you wanted to have 6 rings before hang-up enter {0} as the first digit and {6} as the second digit.

After reviewing the data, the entry of any key will cause the LCD display to return to the MAIN MENU.

To view the current number of rings while at the MAIN MENU key {1} to access the TELEPHONE MENU. At the TELEPHONE MENU select and input the {7}. The LCD will now display:

At this prompt input {#} to display the current value. The LCD will display the following:

To exit back to the Main Menu, input {*} and the system will reset to the MAIN MENU.

RECAP: TO ENTER TELEPHONE MENU SELECT {1}....TO ENTER NEW NUMBER ENTER {*} AND FOLLOW PROMPTS....TO DISPLAY ANY PROGRAMMED TELEPHONE NUMBER ENTER {#} AND FOLLOW PROMPTS....TO CALL OUT TELEPHONE NUMBER 1 SELECT {1}....TO CALL A SELECTED TELEPHONE NUMBER ENTER {2 } AND FOLLOW PROMPTS....TO BUILD A TELEPHONE CALL SEQUENCE SELECT {3} AT THE TELEPHONE MENU AND FOLLOW PROMPTS....TO REVIEW THE TELEPHONE DIALING SEQUENCES 1 OR 2 ENTER {4} AND FOLLOW PROMPTS....TO RESET THE TELEPHONE DIALING SEQUENCE TO BEGIN WITH TELEPHONE NUMBER 1 ENTER {5}....TO SET THE TIME DELAY BETWEEN CALLS ENTER {6} AND FOLLOW PROMPTS....TO SET THE NUMBER OF RINGS ENTER {7}; INPUT {*}....TO REVIEW NUMBER OF RINGS ENTER {7}; INPUT {#}.

The voice playback and LCD display of alarm condition are covered together. The voice message will on occasion also have an accompanying LCD presentation. This presentation will display the alarm condition and variables associated with the alarm simultaneously with the voice message. To enter the VOICE MENU input {2} on the keypad while at ID-4 MAIN MENU. At the VOICE MENU there are several options available. We will discuss each of the choices {*}, {#}, {1}, {2}, {4}, and {5}.

On a new system it is best to install the voice replies first. This will provide voice prompts to assist the first time user. Go to section 4.3 for first time start-up.

A voice prompt will be delivered (if programmed) and the LCD display will show the following:

At this prompt enter the sequence number for the alarm you wish to display. For example; choose SEQUENCE #4, "AUX GENERATOR ON". In this example, "AUX GENERATOR ON" has been previously been stored as the alarm condition for number 4. This will be discussed later but for now just understand that SEQUENCE #4 is "AUX GENERATOR ON". After entering {4} a voice prompt will be provided (if programmed). Now a new LCD display is presented:

This prompt is asking whether you would like to hear the alarm message or the reply prompt. The alarm message is the message which is broadcast to the called party when the alarm is active. Example: "This is an emergency condition the aux generator is currently on and this unit requires refueling every four hours". The reply prompt is a voice prompt. Example: "This is the MAIN MENU please select sub menu". Each of the prompts which are broadcast are generated by the user for aiding in programming and remote access to the ID-4 Main Menu Program. A complete list of each reply prompt, where it belongs, and where it is played is listed in this section. EXAMPLE: reply one is used following the LCD display above which asks ALARMS =* REPLY = # The prompt generally says "Select ALARMS or REPLY ". Thus, when the system is programmed and the {*} key is entered the ID-4 will broadcast the ALARM message selected in the first prompt.

At this time, please refer to the CHANNEL INFORMATION LIST on Page 1, which was completed earlier. From the information on this list we will generate a voice message which will define the alarm condition for each of the four channels. Begin with the 1st ALARM DESCRIPTION in our list. As an example, use "REPAIR CREW HERE" as channel 1. At this time think of what message you would like to convey to the called person when the "REPAIR CREW HERE" condition is activated. An example may be "This is the repair crew reporting in this is a normal situation and no response is required at this time". The message which we will install will be about 12 and 1/2 seconds long. Another way of looking at the repair crew alarm may be that when a station is opened a time delay is activated and the repair person has a preset time to reset the alarm condition. Failure to reset the alarm would cause the ID-4 to call out. This would indicate that the repair person was unable to access the reset button and may have fallen or had some other problem. The system could summon help in such a situation. The message in this example would be different and could say that "the repair person was unable to acknowledge the safety switch and requires help". Select the appropriate message and time the message to insure that all important information is included. To record any message or reply on the ID-4, the system must first be in the VOICE MENU. To get here from the MAIN MENU input the digit {2}. This will place you in the sub menu called VOICE MENU.

We intend to record a new alarm message, so select change by inputting {*}. The below display will then be placed on the LCD display:

At this prompt select and enter digit {1}. This will set up the system to record the voice message and store this message on sequence one. The next prompt will define whether the message is an ALARM MESSAGE or REPLY PROMPT. After the digit {1} is entered the LCD display presents the next display:

At this prompt enter the choice of ALARMS. This choice is selected by inputting {*}. This now tells the ID-4 that the new message will be an alarm message and sets up the system to record and store the data in alarm message number one. Upon entry of the above key {*} the LCD will display the following:

This is a temporary resting place. Now compose your thoughts and get an idea of what you would like to record for the 1st alarm message. When you are composed and ready to proceed enter {*}. You now have a two second delay. This is almost exactly enough time to hold the telephone handset in your hand, depress the {*} key in a normal fashion, and bring the telephone handset up to the position where you can speak into the mouthpiece. At the end of two seconds, the recording electronics will record your message as spoken into the telephone handset as though you were talking to another person on the telephone. Speak loudly and clearly, do not "mumble". The recorded message will accurately store your tone and inflection in memory. At the completion of the allotted time for the alarm message the system will then automatically reset to the MAIN MENU prompt. Use the same procedure to install each of the four alarm messages for the system. Feel free to review the message, and if for any reason, you are not satisfied with sound, tone, or verbiage, then re-record the message.

To install voice prompts begin at the MAIN MENU. Input {2} to access the VOICE MENU. The LCD display will offer two choices, ALARM message or REPLY prompt. To record a REPLY PROMPT input {#}:

The {#} tells the system that the recorded message will be a REPLY PROMPT, not an ALARM MESSAGE. A slightly different procedure is used to install the REPLY PROMPTS in GROUP 2 and GROUP 3 as explained above each table.

Start at the MAIN MENU prompt and select VOICE MENU by inputting a {2}. The confirmation of VOICE MENU is broadcast and the LCD displays the following:

To select replies in Group 1 enter {*} now and proceed to the next LCD display.
To select replies in Group 2 enter {4} now and proceed to the next LCD display.
To select replies in Group 3 enter {6} now and proceed to the next LCD display.

At this prompt we have seven choices (1 thru 7). Select the number which you would like to enter and input that number now. EXAMPLE: In this case we will input the digit {1}. The LCD again changes and the new display is:

At this prompt enter your choice of recording an alarm message or a reply prompt in Group 1. In our EXAMPLE select REPLY 1 from Group 1. Refer back to the Group 1 table of reply prompts. The reply prompt number 1 of Group 1 is "The ID-4 awaits your INPUT". This is the message which we would like to record and store for future playback. To continue, input {#}. The next LCD display shows:

This is a resting point, do not key anything just yet. Hold the handset in one hand and when ready to enter the new message depress the {*} key with the other hand. There is exactly enough time programmed in for a delay to allow you to normally move the handset to your mouth and begin speaking in a normal tone of voice into the mouthpiece. The length of the reply prompts will vary according to which reply is selected. Some of the replies are grouped together to expedite the input of data and will not necessarily be played back in one group as recorded. The voice messages are stored in the PROMS in one long continuous message. The ID-4 can select any portion of the list and playback that section only. This becomes apparent when one selects at the VOICE MENU the choice {8} which plays back all of the reply prompts. The reply prompts are much shorter than the alarm messages. You will be able to tell when the recorded message begins and when it ends by listening to the handset. A slight click will be heard when the unit starts recording and when the recording is completed. When the recorded reply prompt is completed and stored, the LCD display returns to the ID-4 MAIN MENU. To playback the recorded reply prompt, access VOICE MENU by inputting {2}. To review, input {#} and follow the prompts to hear the reply prompt you just recorded.

Start at the MAIN MENU prompt and select VOICE MENU by inputting {2}. The confirmation of VOICE MENU is broadcast and the LCD displays the following:

At this prompt select {*}. We plan to change the alarm message. Input the {*} now and the LCD will update to:

At this prompt we have four choices (1 thru 4). Select the sequence number which you would like to enter. Input that number now. If the input key is not in the range of 1-4 the system will reset and request that you re-enter your request. EXAMPLE: For our example we will use alarm 3. The alarm message in this example is "POWER FAILURE". Inputting {3} will set the system ready to record ALARM MESSAGE 3.

At this LCD display enter your choice of recording an alarm message or a reply prompt from Group 1. In our EXAMPLE select ALARM MESSAGE 3. Refer back to the our original list of alarms conditions. This is the alarm message which we would like to record and store for future playback. To continue input {*}. The next LCD display shows:

This is a resting point, do not key anything just yet. Hold the handset in one hand and when ready to enter the new message depress the {*} key with the other hand. Remember there is exactly enough time programmed in for a delay to allow you to normally move the handset to your mouth and begin speaking in a normal tone of voice into the mouthpiece. Each Alarm message will have about 12.5 seconds of message. You will be able to tell when the message begins and when it ends by listening to the handset. A soft "click" will be heard when the recording starts and again when it finishes recording. When the recorded alarm message is complete the LCD display returns to the ID-4 MAIN MENU prompt. To playback the recorded message key {#} at the VOICE MENU, and follow the prompts to hear the message you just recorded. (further discussed in section (4.6).

STEP 1. At the ID-4 MAIN MENU, input {2} to access the VOICE MENU. For replies in Group 2 and Group 3 see section 4.81 and 4.82 below.

STEP 2. At VOICE MENU input a {#}. Following the voice prompt, the LCD display will show :

At the above prompt enter the number corresponding to the alarm or reply prompt which you wish to retrieve. EXAMPLE: select 4. Input {4} now. After a voice prompt, the LCD changes and now displays:

To select alarm message 4, input {*}. To select reply prompt 4 in Group 1, input {#}. EXAMPLE: For this example input {#}. The ID-4 will broadcast the reply prompt number 4 to the handset and speaker (if the switch is on). In this example REPLY PROMPT 4 is "Please enter your ID code and response". If for any reason you are not satisfied with the reply prompt playback you may change the message.

To access the playback menu for group 2 reply prompts it is necessary to input {7} at the voice prompt. Then follow the instructions beginning at step 2 as described in section 4.6 above.

To access the playback menu for group 2 reply prompts it is necessary to input {4} at the voice prompt. Then follow the instructions beginning at step 2 as described in section 4.6 above.

To playback all reply messages at the ID-4 MAIN MENU INPUT {2}. At the next prompt, input {8}. This will replay all recorded reply messages.

To playback all recorded messages at the ID-4 MAIN MENU, INPUT {2}. This requires about 2 minutes 45 seconds to complete. This will access the VOICE MENU. At the voice menu input a second key input of {2}.

Following this prompt, the messages will play starting with the alarm message 1 and continuing through alarm message 4, then without interruption will proceed to broadcast the reply prompts programmed. In the event that a message or reply prompt is not programmed an audible tone will be heard rather than a message. Total collapse of the AC power, total collapse of the system 12v dc battery supply, and the total collapse of the 5 volt dc on board battery will result in the loss of voice messages. The system has been designed to provide adequate power to sustain normal power losses and to provide for battery change outs or replacement without loss of the voice messages.

To select the time set program for the clock, input {3} at the ID-4 MAIN MENU prompt. The LCD display will show the following:

At this prompt you have three active choices; {1},{2}, or {3}. The {1} will enter the clock on program. This program will allow you to turn on the clock. The {2} turns off the clock and the {3} allows one to set the clock and all of the variables associated with the clock. Enter {*} and proceed. After entering {*} the display looks like this:

To proceed key {* }; to skip key { #}. For this example we will proceed so key {*}. The next LCD display is enter minutes and looks like the following:

Since we wish to proceed enter your choice {*} here. The following display is then presented:

Each entry is two digits in length. Thus, if you wanted a "2" the input to the ID-4 would be "02" not "2". For our example we will enter a 2 minute delay. The prompt {"# #"} reminds us that the entry requires two digits to satisfy the requirements of the ID-4. Select the first digit {0} of the two digit pair "02" and input that digit now . The LCD display will roll and again display the same prompt:

Input the second digit which would be "2". The LCD display now shows a different display. The next display on the LCD display is :

If you elect to proceed key {*} then the system will display the next series of prompts to set hours. Again select the PROCEED and enter a {*}.

This prompt reminds us that the entry requires two digits to satisfy the requirement of the ID-4 system. Select the first digit of the two digit pair and enter that digit. The LCD display will roll again and display the same prompt for the second digit entry. Now enter the last digit and the system will then display :

If you elect to proceed, and key {*} then the system will display the next series of prompts to set the day of the month, the day of the week, the month, and the year. For Sunday select 1, Monday 2, etc. The first entry for the day of the week is always entered as "0" for the first digit and the second digit will be a number between "1" and "7" which corresponds to the correct number for the day of the week. Determine the numerical day of the week and enter that value now. The LCD display PROCEED ={*} SKIP = {#} will come up again. Select PROCEED by entering the {*}. The next LCD display is:

To set the day of month select which calendar day of the month you wish to enter and enter the first digit then the second digit. EXAMPLE: The 24th of December would be {2} and then the second entry of {4}. Select the proper day of month and enter the two digits now. As you finish this entry the familiar LCD display of:

To set the MONTH select the calendar month you wish to enter, then enter the first digit. The display will then reset and you can enter the second digit. EXAMPLE: To select October (month # 10) enter {1} the first digit and {0} the second digit. Select the proper digit pair and enter the first digit. The LCD screen will reset, then enter the next digit. When both digits have been entered the LCD display will reset to:

Select the PROCEED choice by entering {*}. The display will then show the Year set option for the clock. That display looks like:

To set the YEAR option proceed as before. Each entry is two digits and the year is no exception. Select the correct year and enter the third digit of the year, then enter the fourth digit of the year. EXAMPLE: To enter year 1993 the "19" of the 1993 is automatically calculated by the system. It is only necessary to enter the last two digits of the year. Enter {9} for the first digit and then the display will reset and request that you enter a digit. At that time enter the second digit {3}. This will enter "93" for the year. After the entry is completed (two digits entered) the LCD display will show the PROCEED =* SKIP=# prompt. Select the PROCEED =* and input the {*} key. After you input the {*} key, the following LCD display will be presented:

The options are AM=01, PM=02, and M=03. EXAMPLE: To enter PM enter {0}, then the next digit enter {2}. This will display the PM on the LCD display as the last two segments on the second line. At the completion of the entry above the system will then display the DATE and TIME values which you have just selected. This display looks like:

To select this, key {1} and the clock will start. To enable the clock means to start the clock running. This would be used on startup and once started up the clock would continue to run thereafter.

To select this option, key {2} as an input. This will disable the clock. Before you select this option, know what you are doing. To enable the clock means to start the clock running. This would be used on startup and once started up the clock would continue to run thereafter. The Disable is for use at those times when it is necessary to stop the clock. This option is provided for, but would not be used in normal conditions.

Section 6.0 deals with setting the time delays and the type of alarm contact for each of the alarms to be monitored. To make the process of time delays more effective and to provide a written record which we may like to review at some later time, the INFORMATION LIST should be filled out prior to beginning the process of setting the time delays. The paper work will take more time and thinking than the actual installation of the values into the ID-4 system. During the early part of this instruction set we requested that you fill out a CHANNEL INFORMATION LIST. From this list we will get the information to program the time delays for the ID-4. If for some reason the worksheet is not completed please complete the data now. When you have the completed data sheet at hand we are ready to continue.

With the data sheet readily available bring the ID-4 MAIN MENU prompt into the LCD display. To repeat, this is done by keying the {#} key. We are now ready to proceed. To begin enter the "4" digit. This will bring up the following display:

If we had arrived here by mistake we could exit by entering the {0} key back to main menu prompt. Since we want to be here key the {*} and proceed with the time delay entry program. The next display would look like:

This prompt is requesting the numerical number assigned to the alarm we are about to set. Going back to our earlier list which we have at hand now, select the first alarm on the list. EXAMPLE:

In the above example the delay is "05" min and the delay type is N/O (normally open). To enter the first channel number only one digit is required because the maximum number of alarms we will process is 4. Therefore, only 1 digit is necessary to meet all the possible examples because the choices are channels 1-4. However, the minutes, seconds, and hours, etc. require 2 digits to meet all of the possible values which are available for use. At this time input {1} to indicate to the ID-4 that we intend to define the time delay for channel 1. After selecting {1} the LCD will display:

This prompt requires that we select either seconds or minutes. To select seconds key the {*}; to select minutes key the {#}. In our example above we will select minutes. Input the {#} key now. The next display shows:

The desired response is an entry of two digits from "00" to "99". These are the two extremes of the time delay range. See chart at end of instructions for conversion table of values. Using our example, select "0" as the first digit. Enter the first digit now. The second digit in our example is "5". Enter the second digit now. You will notice that the LCD display will reset at each entry. After the first digit is entered the same display will be presented a second time. The reason is that the system still requires another digit to complete the required data. As the second digit is entered the system shows the next screen:

At this prompt the ID-4 is looking for either a {*} or a {#} key input. The {*} key input sets the alarm channel to a normally open contact. The {#} key input sets the alarm channel to a normally closed contact. EXAMPLE: Key the {*} for the NORMALLY OPEN contacts. The following display is then presented:

To exit back to the MAIN MENU input {#}. To enter another alarm channel input a {*}. If you input {*} the display now looks like:

To continue entering data, input the next single digit which would define the next alarm channel. This input allows us to set the variables for the selected alarm channel. We are ready to proceed with the entry and setup of the selected alarm channel. Proceed with the installation of the remaining alarm time delays and contact closure types until the list is completed and all alarms have values assigned for time delay and closure type (N/O or N/C).

When we wish to exit to the MAIN MENU simply input {#} at the above LCD display and the system will return to the ID-4 Main Menu position. Enter the remaining delay condition and when completed exit back to the MAIN MENU by entering the {#} key.

To review the alarm delays, access the TIME DELAY MENU by entering {4 } at the Main menu prompt. The display shows:

To change the time delays key {*}. To only review the time delays key {#}. EXAMPLE: Input a {#} (review delays). The following will be displayed:

These are the first four time delays plus another pair of digits (00) not used on the ID-4. The first pair of digits defines the time delay for channel 1. In this example the delay equal (00). The second pair of digits defines the delay for channel 2. In this example (04) is the time delay for the 2nd alarm channel. The remaining two pairs of digits represent 3 and 4 respectively. To display the time between calls, and the pager delay, if any, input a {#}.

The first three pairs of digits are three channels not used on the ID-4. The first single digit display is the time between successive telephone calls. The example in the above display is "2". The second single digit is the pager delay, in this display "0".

To display the "fail safe" time delay input a {#}. By inputting {#} the following display appears:

The first pair of digits "08" is the time between calls, the second pair "06" is the number of rings before hang-up, the third pair "35" is the fail safe time delay, and the fourth pair "03" is AC Power Fail On and the time delay is set at 3 minutes. If AC Power Fail is selected off, then the fourth position will show "AC OFF". To exit this menu, depress {#} key.

To set the LCD display to show alarm variables select {4} while at the TIME DELAY MENU. This will then display the following:

At this prompt select and input {9}. This will cause the ID-4 to display each of the Alarm channels 1 thru 4. The display shows each channel and looks like:

The above display shows ALARM 1. This display will stay in the LCD window for several seconds and then the next alarm is presented. This will continue until all 4 alarms and their variables have been displayed.

To review any of the Alarms 1 through 4 on the LCD display, begin at the MAIN MENU and input {4} to access the TIME DELAY MENU. After the voice prompt which says "TIME DELAY MENU" input the number corresponding to the alarm that you want to review. To review only one alarm variable enter the digit which corresponds to the alarm number which you would like to view on the LCD display. Example: if you wanted to view alarm 3 enter digit {3} and the LCD display will recall the data for alarm 3 and will look like this:

The number of the alarm is 3 and the type of contact closure required to activate an alarm is normally open (closed on alarm condition). The time delay {D} is in minutes {m} and the time delay is set for {10} ten minutes. The nomenclature of the alarm is "POWER FAILURE" and is displayed on the second line of the display.

TO REVIEW THE ENTIRE LIST OF ALARMS AND ASSOCIATED CONDITIONS ENTER TIME DELAY MENU {4} THEN ENTER DIGIT {9}. THIS WILL DISPLAY EACH ALARM IN SEQUENCE ALLOWING SUFFICIENT TIME TO REVIEW EACH OF THE FOUR ALARMS.

At the Main Menu input key {5} to access the ACKNOWLEDGMENT MENU. The following will be displayed on the LCD DISPLAY:

The choice of {1} at the acknowledgment menu will allow you the opportunity to set the amount of time that the ID-4 will wait after being remotely acknowledged (but not reset at the station). This time delay is the amount of time that the system will allow for the local reset to be accomplished. If the ID-4 is acknowledged by one of the called parties and the local reset is not depressed before the time delay expires, the system will again begin the dialing sequence and will continue dialing until acknowledged. At the ACKNOWLEDGMENT MENU select and input {1} to display the following:

At this prompt key the first digit of the desired fail safe time period. If we had selected 35 minutes you would then enter the digit {3} and the ID-4 will automatically store the digit and reset the same display message. At this prompt enter digit {5} and the ID-4 will store the data as 35 minutes and return to the MAIN MENU prompt.

To confirm the time delay (fail safe time delay) begin at the MAIN MENU. At the MAIN MENU key {4} to access the TIME DELAY MENU. At this time select the {#} choice to review the time delays. This LCD display shows time delays 1, 2, 3, 4, and an unused pair of digits:

Input {#} again and the display will show three pairs of unused digits. Disregard this display:

Key {#} again and the display will show the following delays. The first pair of digits will be the "time between calls", the second pair will be the "number of rings before hang-up", the third pair will be the "fail-safe callback time", and the fourth pair will be the "power fail time delay" providing the time delay is on.

Should the A/C power fail delay be off, the following LCD display will be presented:

The choice of {*} at the ACKNOWLEDGMENT MENU will reset the call back time to zero. By inputting {*} at this prompt you are telling the system that the problem is corrected and you are resetting the time delays back to normal by restoring the original time delays. When the next change of status exists the register which holds the count down time will be decremented and when any of the registers decrement to zero, the alarm is declared valid and the system will then begin calling out.

The first code pair (00) is the most recent acknowledge code. This code is saved when the called party acknowledges the message broadcast by the ID-4 over the telephone lines. In this example code number (04) was the second most recent code. To display the remaining codes key {#}. The last three codes will be displayed, as follows:

To change the 4 digit access code begin at the MAIN MENU. At the MAIN MENU select {5} for the ACKNOWLEDGMENT MENU. The following LCD display will appear: Then the voice message will say "Change or Review".

At this prompt enter a {2} to continue. The LCD display will now display the following:

At this prompt, enter {*}, then enter the "old" 4 digit access code. If the number is incorrect you will be unable to establish a new code access. You must correctly input the 4 digit code to continue past this point.

When the correct "old" or current 4 digit code is input the voice message will say "Processing Request " and the LCD will update to the following:

At this prompt input {*} and then enter each of the new digits (a total of four (4) digits are required). The next LCD presentation will display the new access code. Write this new number down on the following line _____________ before going any further.. Remember to write the number down because this is the last time you will "SEE" the number.

If the "new" 4 digit access code number is correct and you wish to install this new number enter {*} and the number will be automatically stored as the access code. If the new access code you were installing was entered as 1,2,3,4 the LCD would update and display the following:

After you input the {*} the new access code will be permanently installed in the memory of the system, and will remain so until changed again.

Access to the ID-4 is achieved on two levels (if so set up in the program). The level of access will allow the user to view or review any of the features of the ID-4. The second level will allow only "approved" personnel access to the Main menu which would make changes in the status of the system as currently programmed. This is an optional feature and is generally custom configured for the specific needs and requirement of the customer. The unit as standard will allow any person access to the system at the ID-4 location, but not remotely.

7.6 CHANGE THE STATION ID NUMBER WHICH IS USED ON A TONE PAGER WHICH IDENTIFIES THE STATION WHICH IS CALLING

To access the STATION ID NUMBER PROGRAM enter digit {5} at the MAIN MENU prompt. This will access the ACKNOWLEDGMENT MENU. The following will be displayed:

At this prompt enter {3} to access the STATION ID CODE program. To change input {*}. The following display will appear in the LCD display window:

At this prompt enter the 1st digit of the STATION ID CODE number. Following the 1st entry a voice message will be delivered and the LCD display will reset to the same message. Enter the 2nd digit of the STATION ID CODE. The voice message will be played again and the LCD will reset again. The 3rd and final digit will be entered. If the entries were "321" then the following will be displayed:

To review the STATION ID CODE at the MAIN MENU prompt select and input {5}. This will place the ID-4 in the ACKNOWLEDGMENT MENU. To review the STATION ID CODE enter {4}. The STATION ID NUMBER will appear as follows:

In this example the STATION ID CODE which will be displayed on the pager LCD display will be 321-. Each alarm which is active and timed out will appear following the STATION ID CODE. If the alarms 1 and 3 were active, the LCD on the dialed pager would display "321-13". The customer must make other provisions for the acknowledgment of the ID-4 because the pager is unable to send back a tone which the ID-4 will accept as an acknowledgment code.

The ID-4 has the ability to selectively call out or bypass the A/C power failure option. When A/C power failure option is selected, the ID-4 is programmed to call out on the failure of A/C power to the unit when the power fail timer has decremented to zero. The status of the A/C line is continuously monitored for the presence of A/C Power. When the system detects that A/C power is no longer available to the ID-4, the system will automatically invoke the appropriate dialing sequence and begin to call out. The voice prompt will advise the answered party to "please stand by" and then will begin to describe the location and identifier associated with the station in alarm and will say "This is a power failure :power failure". If any other alarms are active these alarms will be broadcast following the "power failure message" and the ID-4 will then ask the called party to "Enter his ID code and response". Please see section 9.1 for a discussion of the response options.

Should the customer choose not to monitor A/C power, this option is available and is selected as follows. Go to the Main Menu and enter {4} for the time delay menu. At this prompt enter {5} and the following LCD display will be shown:

By inputting {#} the customer automatically selects the no A/C power fail mode. Should the customer elect to monitor A/C power failure, he would input {*} at the above prompt. The following LCD display will be presented:

At this prompt, enter the first digit of the desired delay in minutes. If you want a three minute time delay (03), enter {0}, then the LCD display will redisplay the same prompt and you will enter {3}. At the completion of the entry of the second digit, the system will automatically reset to the Main Menu and store the time delay (03 minutes) in the system.

The ID-4 can be programmed on site or remotely via telephone. Programming the ID-4 with a telephone at a location other than the site is called REMOTE ACCESS. The ID-4 provides for REMOTE ACCESS but, requires that the party possess the knowledge and the proper code to access the system. The level of access via telephone (REMOTE ACCESS) is the same level of access that an operator has at the site. That is, he may change the telephone numbers, messages or other functions of the system. Each called party is assigned a unique ID code which will be used when accessing the system. The ID code is a two digit number which will provide an audit trail identifying the persons who use the code to acknowledge an alarm message. This audit trail will display the most recent of the ID codes which have been used to acknowledge the dialer. The system is set up to accept any combinations of codes from 00 to 99. Custom programming can limit the numbers to a small number window or specific codes as may be necessary. The ID code is one pair of numbers. The ACCESS CODE is an entirely different set of numbers and is composed of 4 digits which have been previously installed in the ID-4.

To ACKNOWLEDGE an alarm condition, the ID code and response digit is required. The acknowledgment procedure is as follows:

The ID-4 begins the dialing sequence. The first number is called and the telephone assigned to the first dialed number begins to "ring". Several possibilities exist:

There may be occasions where the customer may wish to call the ID-4 and remotely activate the acknowledge feature of the ID-4 dialer. This is accomplished by dialing the telephone number assigned to the ID-4, the unit will answer and identify itself and ask you enter your id code and response. At this prompt you would enter the two digit ID Code assigned to each called party and then the number "6". The unit will again ask for your id code and response, at this prompt enter the four digit access code to access the system. If correctly done the system will reply "acknowledge recognized" and hang up and set the acknowledge feature active and activate the fail-safe time to the current time set for fail-safe period. This is the same program as if the ID-4 called the telephone number and the answering party entered his two digit ID Code and number "9". This can also be done by accessing the menu and then selecting Sub Menu 5 and then choice "6".

1. To select the automatic monitoring of A/C Power select Sub Menu 4 {TIME DELAY}, then choice "5" to bring the prompt which looks like:

3. The time in minutes is a total of two digits. Each digit is entered one digit at time. Example: 5 minutes would be entered {0} then {5} which is 05 minutes

4. Should you wish to change the A/C fail from ON the OFF then enter the "no" choice which in this case would be a " # ". This will select the NO A/C power failure mode.

To quick start the system as set of preset values for the time delays, call back time and other variables are entered at the sub menu choice " 3 " and the selection of key "5". This will automatically install the following variables.

	____	____	____	____	____	____	____	____
	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8

	____	____	____	____	____	____	____	____
	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
