Chapter 6: Acknowledgment, Status Report, and Remote Access
6.2.2 Example: Status Report, Existing Alarms
Inputs 2, 3, 4, and 6 are configured as dry contact and inputs 1,
5, 7 and 8 are configured as temperature. An emergency
situation is at hand: a fire in a greenhouse has tripped a smoke
alarm and electrical power has been disrupted. In addition to
high sound and AC power alarms, separate alarms exist on
inputs 5, 6, 7, and 8. You happen to call in for the Status
Report, which begins with, “Hello, this is telephone number
555-1234; the time is 12:15 PM.” Following this introduction,
the report continues:
“Number 1, 74 degrees, OK.”
“Number 2, OK.”
“Number 3, OK.”
“Number 4, OK.”
“Number 5, 105 degrees, HIGH.”
“Number 6, EXISTS.”
“Number 7, 110 degrees, HIGH.”
“Number 8, 98 degrees, HIGH.”
“The electricity is OFF.”
“Battery condition, OK.”
“Sound level, HIGH.”
“Listen to the sound level for 10 seconds.”
“Warning message received by ...(last telephone number
dialed*).”
The Status Report repeats once more and the Model 1108
concludes the call, saying: “Have a good day.”
* The “last telephone number dialed” refers to any one of the
programmed, dial-out telephone numbers through which the
Model 1108 was able to receive alarm acknowledgment, prior
to your call for a Status Report; this could also refer to the
Model 1108’s I.D. Number, if the alarms are acknowledged at
the keypad by someone present at the site.
