Section 7. THE 4285 PHONE MODULE
General
Information
The 4285 Phone Module is an add-on accessory for the VISTA-40 that will permit
access to the security system via a Touch-tone phone (either on premises or by a
call-in when away). Only one Phone Module can be used in this
security system and it must be assigned as device address 04 only
and assigned to partition 1 using #93 Menu Mode, Device
Programming. The Phone Module normally controls the partition in
which it is installed, but can control the other partition by using
the "GOTO" command.

.
The 4285 is not permissible in UL installations.
When properly connected, the 4285 Phone Module will enable the user to do
the following via a Touch-tone telephone:
1. Receive synthesized voice messages over the phone regarding the status of
the security system.
2. Arm and disarm the security system and perform most other commands using
the telephone keypad, with voice annunciation being provided over the
phone as confirmation after any command is entered.
The on-premises phone system need not have Touch-tone service, but the
phone used for phone access must have Touch-tone capability (if premises uses
PULSE dialing, switchable phones should be set for Touch-tone temporarily
before attempting phone access). An off-premises phone that does not have
Touch-tone service and must use Pulse for dialing may not permit switching to
Touch-tone
after
dialing; in such a case, phone access from that phone will not be
possible.
NOTE: Some digital phone systems may not emit true TouchTone from the
keys, so access may be limited by this type of phone.
The Phone Module can annunciate many of the same words that would normally
be displayed on an Alpha keypad under the same system conditions.
Phone access to the security system from on-premises is possible only by entry
of an installer-programmed 2-digit "phone code" (1Ð9 and * or #). When
attempting to access the security system from a phone outside the premises, a
voice prompt to enter the 2-digit phone code
and
the 4-digit security code will be
provided.
Detailed operating instructions for phone access to the security system are
provided with the Phone Module. In addition, a PHONE ACCESS USER'S
GUIDE is supplied with the Phone Module for the user of the system.
Mounting The Phone
Module
The Phone Module may be mounted in the control cabinet if space is available or,
if this is not possible, on the side of the cabinet or adjacent to it. Pry off the Phone
Module's cover prior to wiring.
When the Phone Module is mounted inside the control cabinet, it can be
attached with 2-faced adhesive tape to the cabinet's interior surface.
Do not
mount on the cabinet door or attempt to attach it to the PC board.
The Module's
cover can be left off if it is mounted within the cabinet.
When the Module is to be mounted outside the cabinet, screw holes at its rear will
permit it to be mounted horizontally or vertically (2-faced adhesive tape may be
used, if preferred). Wires can be brought out from the side or back (a round
breakout is also available on the back). When the Module's mounting and wiring
is completed, its cover should be installed (with label affixed, as indicated next).
Affix the 4285 connections
label (supplied separately) to the inside of the Phone
Module's cover if the cover is used. Otherwise, affix the label to the inside of the
control cabinet's
door.
