DUoFONE Home Monitor (430-0165) Hints and Tips Faxback Doc. # 32051 Q: Is the unit controlled by ID Number or by phone line? Why does it report alert condition 1 and 2 when nothing is connected to those terminals? A: Any normally open or normally closed positive switches can be used for the alert conditions. This Home Monitor will "LOOK" at the status of the alert conditions when the ID number is entered and consider that condition to be normal. Any deviation from normal (either by a switch opening or closing) will be reported as the existence of that condition. All three alert conditions operate independently of each other so that normal can be any combination of open or closed. (IR-03/04/96)
