Customizing a Dial-Up Connection to an Alarm Station
Preparation
Before customizing a dial-up connection, check your alarm station definition, as explained in
Dial-
up Connection to an Alarm Station.
Fig. 11–8. Irregular Use of Area Codes when Units Are Calling an Alarm Station.
No need to customize... most times
You do not need to customize a long distance code when a Multi-Media unit uses regular long
distance. One or many such sites can call-in alarms to the same alarm station without concern.
By default, Multi makes local calls when long distance codes match. You can add a long distance
or toll-free code, site-by-site as needed, in the Update Station to Call in Case of Alarms box. See
figure
11–9, below and section Customizing a Dial-Up Connection to an Alarm Station, p. 51.
