05 Autotest
An engineer test can be automatically transmitted to the Monitoring Station at programmed intervals.
1 = Start Time
The engineer uses this option to enter the time that the first engineer test is transmitted. Subsequent engineer
test transmissions are offset by the value assigned in the Intervals option.
2 = Intervals
This option determines the period between engineer test transmissions following the Start Time, the program-
mable range is 0 – 99 hours.
NOTES:
1. If the Test Interval is 0 (default) the Autotest is disabled — even if a Start Time has been assigned.
2. To disable Autotest enter 00:00 (default); no transmissions of test signals can be sent at midnight.
3 = Interval Test
This option can either be disabled or enabled to allow an engineer test to be carried out.
4 = Group Condition
NOTE: This option is only displayed if the groups have been enabled (refer to option 63 = OPTIONS).
The Group Condition determines the status that each group must satisfy before the Autotest is transmitted.
This can be used to prevent an Autotest from being signalled when groups are set on the system. On selecting
this option press the relevant number keys to toggle the status of the groups and press the ent key to accept
the programming. The available group status conditions are:
S = Set - group must be set to allow autotest transmission;
U = Unset - group must be unset to allow autotest transmission;
– = Set or unset - autotest transmission is independent of the group status.
06 Engineer Test
An engineer test can be sent to the Monitoring Station once the Account Number and the Telephone
Number 1 have been entered, to ensure that the station is receiving transmissions sent from the ISDN
module.
On selecting this option a warning message is displayed on the keypad. Press the ent key to send the engineer
test.
The test attempts to transmit once for each selection of the option. If the test is not successfully transmitted,
the communicator does not attempt to resend. An unsuccessful transmission is not counted as a FAIL TO
COMMUNICATE.
07 Line Fail
The ISDN module continually monitors the ISDN line that it is connected to. In addition to the DC volts
monitoring of the ISDN line, the ISDN Module can be programmed to use layer 1 check monitoring. The
layer 1 option will activate the ISDN line every 40 seconds and monitor the activation response from the
ISDN network. This activation will remain for about 20 seconds. When X.25 is used the layer 1 check is not
performed because the ISDN line is already activated continuously.
