area group displayed. For more information about the list control data entry refer to the
section List Control Data Entry on Page 406.
Dialling Attempts
The dialling attempts determine how many times the dialler will attempt to dial a number
before failure. This setting will be overridden by the modem configuration dependent on the
country of installation and local phone authority. For UL and ULC installations this value can
not be set above 8. The dialling attempts operate in conjunction with the dialling delay
setting.
SV001 Dialling
attempts: 008
To modify the dialing attempts (000 to 255, a setting of 000 will result in the default of 8
attempts being used), use the keypad as explained in section Entering Decimal Numbers on
Page 405 and press [ENTER].
Port Open Attempts
The port open attempts determine how many times the service will wait for the modem to
become available if another service is already using modem for communication. This operates
in conjunction with the port open time settings.
SV001 Port open
attempts: 008
To modify the port open attempts (000 to 255, a setting of 000 will result in the default of 8
port attempts being used), use the keypad as explained in section Entering Decimal Numbers
on Page 405 and press [ENTER].
Report Count
The report count if set to a value other than 000 will restrict the service from sending more
than the programmed number of reports to the monitoring station. When using multiple
reporting paths that potentially can report the same event to 2 or more locations the report
count should be programmed with an acceptable limit (Between 8 and 16 is recommended).
SV001 Report
count: 000
To modify the report count (000 to 255, a setting of 000 will result in an unlimited number of
reports being able to be sent), use the keypad as explained in section Entering Decimal
Numbers on Page 405 and press [ENTER].
Handshake Time
The handshake time determines the time it takes for the remote receiving unit to answer and
provide a handshake message for the SIA format. By default this is set to 030 seconds and
should only be adjusted if a longer than normal call completion is required. When handshakes
for lower speed formats are placed in front of the SIA handshake it may be required to
increase this time.
