Test and select an alarm tone.


Dip switch setting for selecting the alarm tone for each line

Alarm tone selection is by using dip switches to select the alarm tone required

Each exchange line modular plug has it's own individual set of four selectable alarm tones that are set by using the dip-switches at the top right hand side of the alarm PCB. If only one exchange line is to be connected, either modular socket can be used to give the customer the tone they like the best (i.e they can have a choice of eight different tones). The top two switches are for exchange line 1 and the bottom two switches are for exchange line 2. There are two push buttons immediately below the dip switches that are used to test the tones. The left hand “test” button is for exchange line 1 and the right hand “test” button is for exchange line 2.

To test the alarm-tones, connect the speaker and connect power to the tone ringer (the LED should light). Set a pair of dip-switches (either 1 & 2 or 3 & 4) to one of the four possible combinations for that pair.

Momentarily press the corresponding “test” button. Repeat this procedure until you get a suitable alarm-tone. If you are connecting only one exchange line and prefer the alarm-tones for Line 2, simply use the Line 2 RJ socket instead of using the Line 1 socket.
