2. The OMA-P1104 will not answer
the telephone when called for a
Status Report or alarm
acknowledgment.
The OMA-P1104 must be connected to a
standard (2-wire analog) telephone line, not
a digital extension to a phone system. If the
unit will not dial out and the factors
previously listed have been ruled out, try
connecting the unit to a standard residential
telephone line.
e) The OMA-P1104 is connected to an
incompatible telephone line.
a) Rings Until Answer is incorrectly
programmed.
Recheck programming of Rings Until
Answer. Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.5.1.
b) The OMA-P1104 is connected to an
incompatible telephone line.
Some telephone systems will not allow the
telephone to ring beyond 4 rings. If your
OMA-P1104’s Rings Until Answer is set at
more than 4 rings, you may not be able to
access the unit. Try setting the Rings Until
Answer to less than 4 rings. If this does not
correct the problem, it may indicate
telephone line incompatibility. In this case,
try connecting the OMA-P1104 to a
standard, residential telephone line.
