controlled system capable of monitoring 10 alarm channels. The
system shall be configured for operation by the user by means of
the built-in keypad. The system shall have one alarm output.
Characteristics of Input and Output channels include Dry Contact
Input, 12V Run Time Input, 0-16V Analog Input, 10K Thermistor
Input and 12VDC Output.
Upon detection of any alarm or status change, the system shall
commence dialing telephone numbers from a list associated with
the particular alarm condition(s). The alarm message shall be
