dialing out. During this time (if the speaker is set to ON), the unit will
recite an alarm message locally to indicate which input is in alarm.
If someone on board acknowledges the alarm before the Call Delay
time expires, the unit will not dial out.
2) Boat Remote checks the programmed dial out selection list for the
current alarm condition and dials the first number on the list.
Dial Out
Call Progress
Boat Remote monitors call progress when dialing out. If Boat
Remote dials out and encounters a busy signal or no answer, the
unit hangs up, waits the programmed intercall delay time, and then
dials the next phone number.
Boat Remote can make two types of phone calls, voice or beeper.
Voice
When dialing out to a phone number programmed as ‘voice’, Boat
Remote waits for the phone to be answered, then recites its user-
recorded identification message, then recites the alarm message.
Below is an example of what Boat Remote might say during a typical
‘voice’ dial out:
“Hello, this is (ID message). The water level is too high”
“Hello, this is (ID message). The water level is too high”
“Hello, this is (ID message). The water level is too high”
“Indicate you have received warning message.”
In this example, the number of Message Repetitions is three.
NOTE: If the call reaches an answering machine, the message will
be recorded but Boat Remote will be talking over your outgoing
message, so you will probably lose part of the first alarm message
repetition.
Beeper
When dialing out to a phone number programmed as ‘beeper’, Boat
Remote can leave a number (usually the unit’s own phone number)
on the display of a numeric beeper.
