Phone Line and Phone Number/IP Selection: To ensure the delivery of critical reports, the fire
panel has two phone lines and two phone numbers or IP addresses that can be used for
reporting. Reports can be directed to one or both of two phone numbers or IP addresses
using the Report Steering feature in the control panel programming. Note that Account
Number 1 is used with Phone Number/IP 1, and Account Number 2 is used with Phone
Number/IP 2. Except for test reports, the control panel automatically selects the phone line or
IP address to use. If the report is not successful after two attempts on Line 1, the control
panel automatically switches and uses Phone Line 2. One exception is when test reports
(manual or automatic) are sent. Test reports are sent every 4 hours to 28 days. Each time a
test report is sent, the control panel alternates phone lines. This happens even if the monitor
says the line is bad. If the user sends two manual test reports, both phone lines can be tested.
The first report uses one line, and the second uses the other line. During normal operation,
the automatic test uses a different line each day. Because the control panel automatically
selects which line to use, both phone lines must use the same dialing sequences for sending
reports. For example, a line that requires a 9 to be dialed for an outside line cannot be paired
with a line that does not require a 9.

While the control panel is idle, the FACP monitors the primary and alternate telephone lines by
monitoring the line for trouble. The FACP monitors each line every 12 seconds. When a trouble
still exists after three samples (36 seconds), the FACP sends a trouble report and activates
the yellow trouble LED and trouble relay.
Danger!
If the central station receives the automatic test report only every other day, this indicates
that one phone line at the protected premises is inoperative.
Correct this condition immediately, because other critical reports can be delayed when the
communicator is trying to send the test signal through the inoperative phone line (once each
48 hours).

Supplemental Reporting: While two independent phone lines are required for UL864 Central
Station service, the FACP can be configured with one phone line if the control panel is used
only for supplemental reporting on a local, remote station or auxiliary system.
To install the control panel with only one phone line, connect a jumper from T1 to T2 and a
jumper from R1 to R2. These jumper connections are shown in the following figure:
