The system will not enter speaker phone mode if:

•The feature has not been programmed.

•A report is being sent.

•An audible alarm is present.

•An announcement is being made or a recorded message is being played back.

•A message is being recorded.

Using the Speaker Phone Feature

When the ReadyGuard-REN is operating in the speaker phone mode the system keypad functions as a telephone keypad and the only security keypad functions that will remain enabled are the panic keys and the speaker volume control. (refer to Volume Adjustment section) You may adjust the volume before entering speaker phone mode or after dialing the desired number. In the speaker phone mode, if a zone is violated and has triggered an entry/exit delay, the system will automatically change the keypad from telephone to security mode. This allows the user to disarm the system or take other appropriate actions in the security mode without interrupting the telephone session. To regain telephone keypad control (i.e.: to enter an account number or menu selection) you will need to reactivate the telephone keypad as described below.

1, K596-1 9 specifications

The First Alert K596-1 9,1 is a state-of-the-art smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detector designed to enhance home safety. This innovative device combines advanced features and cutting-edge technology to provide reliable protection against two of the leading causes of accidental deaths in the home.

One of the standout features of the K596-1 is its **photoelectric smoke sensing technology**. This technology is particularly effective at detecting slow-smoldering fires, which typically produce larger particles of smoke. By using a light source and a sensor, the device can identify these particles quickly, thus reducing the likelihood of false alarms that are common with traditional ionization detectors.

In addition to smoke detection, the K596-1 also features a **carbon monoxide sensor**. CO is a colorless, odorless gas that can be fatal in high concentrations. The detector continuously monitors for this dangerous gas, providing peace of mind for families. If elevated levels are detected, the alarm will sound, alerting occupants to the potential danger.

The First Alert K596-1 is designed with **user-friendly features** in mind. An easy-to-read LED display provides real-time information on battery status and system functionality. The unit also includes a voice alert feature that announces the type of danger detected, whether smoke or carbon monoxide, making it easier for occupants to respond appropriately.

Battery life is another important characteristic of the K596-1. It utilizes a long-life battery that can last for several years, reducing the frequency of battery changes and ensuring that the device remains operational without constant maintenance. The easy-access battery compartment allows for a straightforward replacement when necessary.

Installation is simple, too, making the K596-1 accessible to users of all skill levels. The device can be mounted on walls or ceilings, and its compact design ensures that it blends seamlessly into any home environment.

In summary, the First Alert K596-1 9,1 is a crucial safety device that combines advanced detection capabilities with user-friendly features. Its photoelectric sensing technology and carbon monoxide detection work in tandem to provide comprehensive coverage against fire and gas hazards. With its easy installation and reliable performance, the K596-1 is a wise investment for anyone looking to enhance their home safety.
