✻55 Enabling the 5842 Wireless Dialer

This is an interactive menu mode that is used to enable and program the 5842 Wireless Dialer. When enabled, the 5842 will interface with the Lynx Control and serve as the system’s primary dialer. The 5842 receives and acknowledges RF messages from the control’s transceiver and, in response, sends reports to the central station via the dialer. It also sends acknowledgements, supervisory and tamper RF transmissions to the control. If the wireless dialer has tried unsuccessfully to send a report, the Lynx will attempt to report to the Central Station via the on-board dialer (if it has been programmed for back-up reporting). The Back-up reporting option must be selected for Follow-me, Pager and AAV operation (refer to field *49).

LYNX must be connected to the telephone line, if using the Back-up reporting option.

Wireless Dialer Setup

If the wireless dialer is enabled in Field ✻55, Lynx automatically sends the setup information to the wireless dialer immediately after exiting the programming mode. Lynx will confirm that the 5842 wireless dialer has successfully received the setup information by generating three beeps. If the setup information has not been successfully received by the wireless dialer the Lynx will generate a single beep once per minute and “Fault Zone 93” will be displayed. To prepare the dialer for setup refer to the Installation Instructions provided with the 5842 Wireless Dialer.

Note: 1. It takes about 95 seconds for Lynx to transmit the setup information after power has been applied to the control.

2.Entering Programming mode may take up to 18 seconds if the 5842 Wireless Dialer has been enabled. The system will display “ - - “ until the Lynx enters Programming mode.

You must refer to these instructions or to the Programming Guide while programming the system because the keypad display does not show prompt titles. Instead, prompts are indicated by a number/letter combination.
