2.3.13 Talk/Listen-in
Programming
NOTE: The Event Buffer follows Swinger Shutdown option must be
enabled if Talk/Listen-In is used.
The NT9010 system has a Talk/Listen-In feature. This feature allows central station
operators to listen in on what is happening on the premises, and for some events
to talk to anybody present on the premises. You can program Talk/Listen-in sessions
to be triggered by zone alarms, keypad-activated Auxiliary ( ) or Medical ( )*
and Panic alarms, openings/closings, duress alarms, tamper alarms, or opening
after alarm conditions.
For this feature to work, communications must be enabled (section [380], option
[1]), and the system must be programmed to report the event. For example, if a
reporting code for a zone is not programmed, an event in that zone will not initiate
Talk/Listen-In session. See 2.3.12 Communicator Reporting Codes on page 44.
You can allow or disallow talk/listen-in sessions on telephone lines 1 and 3 by
changing the Talk/Listen on Phone Lines 1/3 option. You can allow or disallow
talk/listen-in sessions on telephone line 2 by changing the Talk/Listen on Phone
Line 2 option.
Zone Options
For the feature to work on a zone alarm, you must do the following:
• enroll the zone on the NT9010 (see Chapter 1: Quick Set Up on page 1)
• enable the talk/listen-in feature on the zone (section [802], sub-sections [50] to [53])
• program a reporting code for each zone alarm
You can have the talk/listen-in session take place on either the NT9010 control unit or
the remote sounder (if installed). In the Port Assignments sections (section [802],
sub-sections [10] to [13]), choose the unit that is closest to the zone. If you do not
assign one of the units, the talk/listen-in session will not take place over both units.
NOTE: All zones programmed as silent will not initiate a Talk/Listen-In ses-
sion. Only a Listen-In session can occur.
NOTE:If Talk/Listen-In is used in a multiple room situation, an NT9201
remote sounder is highly recommended.
Event Options
Panic key alarms will activate the Listen-In feature, if the Panic Keys Alarm option
is enabled. Auxiliary key alarms will activate the feature if the Auxiliary ( ) or
Medical ( )* Keys Alarm option is enabled.
Listen-in will be initiated if a Duress code is entered at a keypad and the Duress
Alarm option is enabled.
Talk/Listen-In will be initiated when the system transmits opening and closing sig-
nals if the Openings & Closings option is enabled. If this option is enabled, it is
recommended to enable the Duress Alarm option.
Talk/Listen-In will be initiated when a zone tamper condition occurs if the Tampers
Enabled option is enabled.
Talk/Listen-In will be initiated when the system is disarmed after an alarm condition
(Opening After Alarm) if the Opening After Alarm option is enabled.
*If the unit is to be used in home health care applications, the unit must have Med-
ical ( ) keys and not Auxiliary ( ) keys.
