The Automatic dialer is a self-contained microprocessor controlled system capable of monitoring up to 8 alarm channels, sound level and AC power. The system is configured for operation by the user by means of the built-in keypad. Characteristics of Input channels include Dry Contact and Temperature.
Upon detection of any alarm or status change, the system commences dialing telephone numbers and deliver a voice message identifying and describing the alarm condition(s). The alarm message is delivered in a digitized human voice using messages from the unit's internal vocabulary. The system will continue to call telephone numbers in succession until a positive acknowledgment of the alarm message is received. Acknowledgment is accomplished by depressing tone keys from the called telephone, or by calling the system back within a programmed time period. The alarm may also be acknowledged using the local keypad. In addition, the system is able to receive incoming telephone calls. Upon answering, the system will recite a status report and allow enabling and disabling of monitored conditions.
The system will be FCC and DOC registered for direct connection to the telephone network. The system will be NRTL listed in compliance with UL Standard 1459.

Inputs:
The system comes standard with 8 input channels, configurable as NO or NC digital dry contact or temperature.
The system has these built-in monitoring features:
- AC power failure detection.
- Temperature with pre-wired 2.8K thermistor (-20°F to 150° F) on input #1.
- High sound level detection.

All monitored channels, including built-in monitoring features, allow local keypad programming of pertinent operational data including, but not limited to:
- Input type (NO/NC or temperature)
- High and Low limits (temperature)
- Calibration of temperature inputs (-10° to +10°)
- Input recognition time (0 seconds to 272 minutes)
- Enable/disable for each channel to dialout for alarm

Telephone Specifications:
The system connects to a standard 2-wire telephone line using pulse or tone, with loop start only. The system recognizes ringer frequencies from 16 to 60 Hz. No leased or dedicated lines will be required. The system is also capable of being used on the same telephone line as other answering devices. Call progress detection ensures that the alarm dialout is not hindered by no answers or busy signals.
Telephone Numbers:
The system is capable of dialing up to 8 telephone numbers, 32 digits each. The system allows local keypad programming of the following telephone dialing information:
- Dialing method (Pulse or tone)
- Message repetitions (0 to 10)
- Maximum number of calls (0 to 255)
- Call delay time (0 seconds to 60 minutes)
- Intercall delay time (10 seconds to 60 minutes)
Beeper/Pager Dialout:
The system is capable of intelligently dialing out to a numeric beeper or pager. The dialing sequence is programmable such that the pager number is dialed, the system waits for the telephone to be answered, and then additional identification DTMF digits are transmitted. D. Line Seizure Feature (Model 1118 only) The system automatically seizes control of the phone line to make an alarm phone call when the alarm occurs. All other calls, including current calls, will disconnect and all extensions will be disabled. Extensions will remain cut off until the alarm is acknowledged.

Local Programming:
The System contains an integral, sealed keypad for the purpose of locally programming all system data. Programming is assisted by digitized voice guidance.
Remote Programming:
The system is remotely programmable using a standard touch-tone telephone. The following parameters may be remotely programmed:
- Disable/enable inputs
- Disable/enable AC power monitoring
- Disable/enable high sound level monitoring
- Activation of the status report
- Activation of Listen-in
- Remote Operation Features
Status Report:
The system allows the user to call into the unit at any time using any standard telephone to obtain a full status report of all monitored channels including present temperature and listen-in to on-site sounds. The status report is articulated using the resident digitized English vocabulary.
Acknowledgment:
An alarm on any monitored channel may be acknowledged remotely by pressing tones on a touchtone telephone keypad or by calling the system back within a specified time period. An alarm may also be acknowledged locally using the built-in keypad.
