Option 31, “2Way Listen-in Enable” (No or Yes) and Option 32, “2Way Callback Time” (000 to 255 seconds). These
options are defaulted to No and 000. In addition, you must also decide which zone(s) need to activate listen-in and set
their “Enable Listen-in” programming option. Whenever a Central Station alarm message is transmitted for one of these
zones, the dialer provides two methods for initiating a listen-in session.
