36 REFERENCE & INSTALLATION MANUAL 8.3 CENTRAL STATION TELEPHONE NUMBERS
Section [151] = Phone#1, [152] = Phone#2, [153] = Backup Phone#: Up to 32 digits
The Spectra Control Panels can dial up to 2 different central station telephone numbers. You can enter any digit
from 0 to 9 and any special keys or functions (see Table 7) up to a maximum of 32 digits. For more information on
how these telephone numbers are used, please refer to Event Call Direction on page38 and Reporting Formats in
section 8.5. After the Maximum Dialing Attempts (see page39) to one central station telephone number have failed,
the control panel will then dial the backup telephone number. If the Alternate Dial Option (see page39) is enabled,
the control panel will dial the programmed backup telephone number after every failed attempt. If no backup
telephone number is programmed, the control panel will never report to the backup telephone number. Also refer to
Delay Between Dialing Attempts on page 39.
8.4 PARTITION ACCOUNT NUMBERS
Section [143] = Partition 1, [144] = Partition 2
All report codes are preceded by a 4-digit or 3-digit Partition Account Number to ensure correct identification in a
partitioned system. Partition account numbers can be any hexa-digit from 1 to F. To enter a 3-digit account number,
simply press the [FORCE] key followed by the 3-digit account number. Also, when using 3-digit account numbers, you
must use 1-digit report codes.
8.5 REPORTING FORMATS*
Section [140]: 1st digit = Format for Phone #1, 2nd digit = Format for Phone #2
The Spectra Control Panels can use a number of different reporting formats and each Central Station Telephone
Number can be programmed with a different reporting format. The first digit entered into section [140] represents the
reporting format used to communicate with Central Station Telephone Number 1, the second digit represents the
reporting format used to communicate with Central Station Telephone Number 2. The Backup Telephone Number uses
the same reporting format as the last Central Station Telephone Number that was dialed.
If Hexadecimals (0 to FF) are used to program the report codes, verify that the pager also supports
Hexadecimals. If the pager does not support Hexadecimals, use only the digits 0 to 9.

8.5.1 STANDARD PULSE FORMATS

The Spectra Control Panels can use the Ademco slow, Silent Knight and Sescoa standard pulse reporting
formats (see Table 8).
* UL Note: The installer is required to verify the complete compatibility of the DAC Receiver and formats at least
once per year.
