About E911 alarms

Procedure

When someone on the property calls 911, the E911 alarm lamp flashes to alert you to an emergency. Depending on how your phone system is set up, the visual alarm may be accompanied by distinctive ringing, which is disabled when you acknowledge the wakeup alarm.

To identify who placed a 911 call:

1Press the <E911> key.

The display shows the number of the station that made the call. If more than one 911 call was made, the E911 lamp continues to flash.

2Press the <E911> key until all 911 calls have been displayed. When all 911 calls have been displayed, the E911 lamp stops flashing.

Once you press the <E911> key to display a 911 call, information about the originating station is erased from the E911 alarm queue.

3Press <START> or lift your handset to clear the display.
