1. Customer must contact Viking's Technical Support Department at 715-386-8666 to obtain a Return Authorization (RA)
number. The customer MUST have a complete description of the problem, with all pertinent information regarding the
defect, such as options set, conditions, symptoms, methods to duplicate problem, frequency of failure, etc.
2. Packing: Return equipment in original box or in proper packing so that damage will not occur while in transit. Static
sensitive equipment such as a circuit board should be in an anti-static bag, sandwiched between foam and individually boxed. All equipment should be wrapped to avoid packing material lodging in or sticking to the equipment. Include
ALL parts of the equipment. C.O.D. or freight collect shipments cannot be accepted. Ship cartons prepaid to:
Viking Electronics, 1531 Industrial Street, Hudson, WI 54016
3. Return shipping address: Be sure to include your return shipping address inside the box. We cannot ship to a PO Box.
4. RA number on carton: In large printing, write the R.A. number on the outside of each carton being returned.
Alarm Dialer: The K-202-DVA calls the list of up to 7 phone numbers associated with an alarm input when the input has reached the
alarm state.
Alarm Input: One of two inputs for alarm sensors which may be connected to the K-202-DVA. Each input may be configured as normally
open, normally closed, or disabled. In addition, each input may be configured to require a momentary or continuous closure.
Alarm Message: One of two user-recorded announcements associated with a corresponding alarm input. Each message may be up to
one minute in length.
Alarm State: An alarm input reaches this state when there has been a closure across the input (if normally open) or an open (if normally closed) for a minimum amount of time. If the Qualifier Timer is set to zero, this minimum time is about 80ms. Otherwise the time to
reach the alarm state is the value the Qualifier Timer has been set to (ranging from 1 second to 18 hours).
Call Progress Detection: This feature enables the K-202-DVA to determine when the number it is calling has answered so that it can
start playing the alarm message.
Forced Play Timer: The forced play timer is operational when the Call Progress Detection has been disabled. Instead of starting the
alarm message when the call is picked up, the K-202-DVA waits a set period of time (from 1 - 99 seconds) after the number is dialed
before it starts playing the message. This feature would ordinarily only be used when for some reason reliable call progress detection is
not possible; for example: if one or more of the lines being called are very noisy.
Hookswitch Flash Before Dialing: In some alarm dialing applications, it is necessary for the K-202-DVA to provide a 500ms hookswitch flash before dialing any programmed phone number. This feature can be enabled or disabled on a global basis (applies to both
inputs and all dial numbers).
Lap Counter: The Lap Counter is a programmable counter that sets how many times the K-202-DVA will cycle through its list of
up to 7 numbers for a given input before it gives up and stops the alarm dialing procedure. The Lap Counter is set individually for
each input and can be from 1 - 99.

PART 15 LIMITATIONS
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
FCC REQUIREMENTS
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the side of this
equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If
requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive REN's on a
telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of
the REN's should not exceed five (5.0) To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total REN's, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for
this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the
REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.
The plug used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable
FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected
to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this K-202-DVA does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
If the K-202-DVA causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the
operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make

Message Repeat Count: This is the number of times the alarm message is repeated per call. The Message Repeat Count
is set individually for each input and can be from 1-99.
Pager Number: A phone number of up to 32 digits long which can be used to dial pagers (no alarm message is played).
Priority: Input 1 has higher priority than Input 2.
PA (Public Address) Mode: In this mode, the K-202-DVA dials an access code to play the messages over a PA (public
address) system, versus dialing telephone numbers that will be answered by live people.
Qualifier Timer: This is a user-programmable timer that can be set from 1 second to 18 hours and specifies the amount
of time that a closure must stay in effect before the K-202-DVA enters the alarm state. The default value of the Qualifier
Timer is 0, which is OFF.
Remote Access Code: A six-digit code required for remotely accessing the K-202-DVA in order to poll the alarm inputs
for those that have entered the alarm state and have not been reset.
Reset State: An alarm is reset if the called party or the remotely accessing user dials a touch-tone “9” during the alarm
message. The alarm input resumes normal operation after the Resume Timer expires.
Ring Delay: This is the number of rings the K-202-DVA waits before answering an inbound call. The Ring Delay must be
set from 0-9, with 0 specifying that incoming calls are not to be answered.
Ringback Limit: This is the number of times the K-202-DVA will allow the phone to ring when trying to reach a number
on its phone number list before giving up and going on to the next number.
Resume Timer: This is a user-programmable timer that can be set from 1 second to 18 hours and specifies the amount
of time after an alarm input is reset before it resumes normal operation and begins looking for alarms again. See Operation
for a discussion of how the Resume timer determines when an alarm input leaves the reset state. The default value of the
Resume Timer is zero, which is OFF.
Security Code: A six-digit code required for entering programming.

A. Entering the Programming Mode
1. Local
Step 1. Move the PROG/NORM switch to PROG and plug an analog phone into the TELCO jack.
Step 2. After taking the phone off hook, wait for two beeps.
Step 3. Program as shown in sections B-T.
Step 4. To exit programming, hang-up. Set the PROG/NORM switch to NORM.
2. Remote
Step 1. Make sure the PROG/NORM switch is set to the NORM position and that there is a CO line or analog PABX/KSU
extension in the TELCO jack.
Step 2. Call into the K-202-DVA on that line or extension. The unit will answer after the set ring delay (see Programming
section F) and a single beep should be heard.
Step 3. Enter a
, and the six-digit security code (factory default is 845464). If the correct code is entered, two beeps
should be heard.
Note: The security code must be entered within 20 seconds otherwise the K-202-DVA will time out and hang up.
When in programming, if 20 seconds elapse without Touch Tones being entered or a message being recorded, the
K-202-DVA will automatically exit programming and hang up.
Step 4. Program as shown in sections B-T.
Step 5. To exit programming, hang-up. After the 20 second timeout has elapsed, the K-202-DVA will be ready for normal
operation. Alternatively, dial ##7 and the K-202-DVA will immediately be ready for normal operation.

E. Remote Access Code
Enter a six-digit access code followed by #91. Note: The remote access code must use only the digits 0-9, cannot
contain ,or #, and cannot be set the same as the security code.
D. Security Code (memory location #90)
The security code allows the user/installer to program the K-202-DVA either locally or remotely. The factory set secu-
rity code is 845464 (V-I-K-I-N-G). It is recommended that the security code be changed. Example: To store 654321
as the security code:
Step 1. Access programming as shown in Programming section A.
Step 2. Enter 654321 #90.
Step 3. Exit Programming as shown in section A.
Note: The security code must be 6 digits, cannot include a
,
or a #, and cannot be set the same as the remote access code.
F. Ring Delay
Enter one digit from 0-9 followed by #92. If the ring delay is set to 0, ring detection is disabled, so that the K-202-DVA
will not answer incoming calls. It is important to note that this prevents Remote Access and Remote Programming.
G. Ringback Limit
Enter two digits from 01-99 followed by #93.
I. Forced Play Timer and Call Progress Detection
Call Progress Detection is enabled by setting the Forced Play Timer to 0, which is done by entering the two digits 00
followed by #94. Call Progress Detection is disabled by setting the Forced Play Timer to a non-zero value from 1 to 99
seconds. Enter a two digit number from 01- 99 followed by #94.
J. Contact Closures
Enter 2 digits + #X9, where X is the input number (1-2).
First Digit: 0 = normally open
1 = normally closed
2 = enabled
3 = disabled
Note: These parameters should be set for each input being used. If contacts are disabled through programming (3X),
they must be set for correct operation (N.O. / N.C.) and then enabled (2X) before they will function.
Second Digit: 0 = momentary closure
1 = continuous closure
H. Selecting Dialing Speed
To select normal dialing speed (120 ms) enter ##1. To select fast dialing speed (50 ms) enter ##2.
K. Message Repeat Counter and Lap Counter
Enter 4 digits + #X0, where X is the input number (1-2)
First two digits: 01 - 99 are the Message Repeat Counter
Last two digits: 01 - 99 are the Lap Counter
Note: Each input can have its own Message Repeat Counter and Lap Counter.
5
Page 6
N. Programming the Phone Numbers
To program one of the seven phone numbers for each alarm input enter: the desired phone number (0-32 digits) + #
+ XY (where X is the input number (1 - 2) and Y is one of the 7 numbers (1 - 7) that can be dialed for this input). To
add a 4-second pause to the dial string (this counts as one of the 32 digits) enter ,9. To add a , to the dial string enter
,,. To add a # to the dial string enter ,#. To clear a number enter # + XY (where X is the input number (1 - 2) and Y
is one of the 7 numbers (1 - 7) that can be dialed for this input) without any preceding digits.
R. Recording Messages
Recording of the voice messages may be done either locally or remotely. Once programming has been entered, touch
tones are used to start and stop the recording process. To start a recording: enter , followed by the number of the
input. The K-202-DVA gives a single beep to indicate that it is recording and then starts the recording process. Speak
into the handset of the telephone to record the message. The K-202-DVA has a maximum message time for each
input of one minute. When finished recording the message, enter any touch tone to stop the recording process. At
this point the K-202-DVA automatically plays back the message just recorded. If the recording process goes over one
minute the K-202-DVA stops the recording and starts playing back the message. To clear a single message: enter
,
followed by the number of the input and then immediately press any Touch Tone to stop the recording process.
L. Qualifier Timer
Enter 6 digits + #X,, where X is the input number (1-2). The format is 2 digits for hours, 2 digits for minutes, and 2
digits for seconds: HHMMSS. The qualifier timer can be set anywhere from zero to 18 hours, and has a 1 second resolution. Note: Each input has its own Qualifier Timer.
M. Resume Timer
Enter 6 digits + #X#, where X is the input number (1-2). The format is 2 digits for hours, 2 digits for minutes, and 2
digits for seconds: HHMMSS. The resume timer can be set anywhere from zero to 18 hours, and has a 1 second resolution. Note: Each input has its own Resume Timer.
6
O. Programming Pager Phone Numbers
To program one of the seven phone numbers for each alarm input as a pager number enter: the desired pager phone
number (0-32 digits) + #, + XY (where X is the input number (1-2) and Y is one of the 7 numbers (1-7) that can be
dialed for this input). As with normal phone numbers, 4-second pause, , or # can be programmed by entering ,9, ,,
or ,# respectively. To clear a pager number enter # + XY without any preceding digits. When dialing pagers, the K-
202-DVA is normally configured to send a certain character string when activated, that is easily recognized by the user
on the pager display. To accomplish this, the K-202-DVA is programmed with the phone number for the pager, a series
of pauses (usually 8 or 12 seconds), the character string that you want to appear on the pager display ("3333333333"
for example), a # character (programmed as
,#) to "end" the call with the paging equipment, followed by #, plus XY
(where X is the input number (1-2) and Y is one of the 7 numbers (1-7) that can be dialed for this input).
P. Hookswitch Flash Before Dialing
In the majority of alarm dialing applications, the K-202-DVA simply goes off hook on the phone line or PBX extension,
pauses one second, then begins dialing the programmed phone (or pager) number. In a few alarm dialing applications, the K-202-DVA must go off hook on the phone line or PBX extension and provide a 500 millisecond hookswitch
flash before dialing the programmed phone number. This feature can be enabled or disabled on a global basis (applies
to both inputs and all dial numbers). To enable the hookswitch flash before dialing enter ##4. To disable the hookswitch flash before dialing enter ##3 (default). When hookswitch flash before dialing is enabled, the K-202-DVA goes
off hook, waits 2 seconds, provides the 500 millisecond hookswitch flash, waits one second then dials the programmed
phone number.
Q. PA (Public Address) Mode
In the majority of alarm dialing applications, the K-202-DVA dials a telephone number, waits for someone to answer,
then plays the recorded message. In some cases, the K-202-DVA is used to dial the access code for the PA (public
address) paging system and then play the recorded message out over the loud speakers. This mode is useful in applications where the K-202-DVA is providing emergency or informational messages over the loud speakers, activated
from an alarm system, panic buttons or doorbell buttons. This mode eliminates all beep tones provided by the K-202-
DVA after the recorded message has played and changes the handling of busy signals, to allow for an automatic reattempt to access the paging system when a “forced play timer” has been set. This feature can be enabled or disabled
on a global basis (applies to both inputs and all dial numbers). When in programming, enter ##6 to enable the PA
mode. When the PA mode is enabled, the “forced play timer” should be set to 10 seconds (see section I) and the “lap
counter” should be set to a value higher than one (see section K). To disable the PA mode enter ##5 (default). For
additional information on the PA Mode operation, see Operation, section B.
Page 7
The K-202-DVA constantly monitors both alarm inputs to see if either of them leaves their normal state (N/O becomes closed
or N/C becomes open) for more than 80 ms. In the event of two simultaneous closures, Input 1 has higher priority. What
happens after a closure is detected depends on the Qualifier Timer setting for the input. If the Qualifier Timer is set to zero,
the event qualifies as an alarm immediately and the input enters the alarm state. Otherwise the K-202-DVA counts down
from the Qualifier Timer value to zero, all the while watching to see that the closure remains in effect. If the Qualifier Timer
reaches zero and the closure has not gone away the event qualifies as an alarm and the input enters the alarm state.
When an input has entered the alarm state, the K-202-DVA dials the first phone number associated with that input. When
dialing is completed, the K-202-DVA looks to see if call progress detection is enabled. If it is, the K-202-DVA counts ring-
backs while looking for an off-hook. If the call is not answered before the programmed ringback limit is reached, the K-202-
DVA will hang up and dial the next number in the list. If the called party goes off-hook, the K-202-DVA starts playing the alarm
message associated with that input. If call progress detection is not enabled, the K-202-DVA simply waits until the forced
play timer has expired and then starts playing the alarm message regardless of whether the called party has answered or
not. Note: If the phone number is a pager number, the K-202-DVA does not play the alarm message, but instead pauses
two seconds and hangs up. When the called party answers there are 4 options available:

Result
Stops the currect message if playing and plays message 1 if Input 1 has an alarm that has not been reset, followed by Message 2 if Input 2 has an alarm that has not been reset. If neither input has an alarm that has not
been reset, the K-202-DVA gives three beeps.
Stops the current message if playing and plays the other message if the other input has an alarm that has not
been reset. If the other input does not have an alarm that has not been reset the K-202-DVA gives three beeps.
Stops the current message if playing, hangs up and continues dialing if applicable.
Stops the current message if playing and resets the alarmed input.
S. Playing Back Messages
When in programming, enter ,0 followed by the number of the input to play back the message recorded for that input.
If no message has been recorded, nothing will be heard.
T. Return to Default
IMPORTANT: Executing the following programming erases all phone numbers and messages and returns the
K-202-DVA to default settings.
To erase all messages and phone numbers and to return the K-202-DVA to its original default settings enter ### while
in programming.
Once the message repeat count has been met without a response, the K-202-DVA will give a single beep to indicate that it
has delivered its messages and is about to hang up. The K-202-DVA will then pause for five seconds to allow the called
party a final opportunity to exercise one of the above options.
If the K-202-DVA delivers its message and the called party does not reset the alarmed input the K-202-DVA hangs up and
dials the next number on the list for that input. If all numbers have been dialed and the alarm is still not reset the K-202-DVA
increments the lap counter for that input and starts the dialing process over again. This will continue until the lap counter has
been met. At this point the K-202-DVA marks the input as an alarmed input and returns the input to its rest state.
If an alarm input is reset, the manner in which the input resumes normal operation is determined by the Resume Timer. If
the Resume Timer is set to zero, the K-202-DVA starts looking at the input again right away. If the closure is still in effect,
the K-202-DVA waits for it to go away. If the closure is no longer in effect but a short time later it returns, the K-202-DVA will
start the alarm dialing procedure all over again for that input. However, if the Resume Timer is set to a non-zero value, the
K-202-DVA counts down from that value to zero and then examines the input to see if the closure is still in effect. If it is, the
alarm dialing procedure starts again. If not, the input goes back to the rest state.
It is also possible to remotely access the K-202-DVA to poll it for any alarms that might not have been reset. This is done
by calling the phone line connected to the K-202-DVA. After it answers and provides its single beep as a prompt, enter ,
followed by the six digit Access Code. The K-202-DVA gives two beeps and the 4 above options become available.
Note that if a , is entered while connected to the call the K-202-DVA will exit its current mode and if no touch tones are
entered within 20 seconds, it will hang up and proceed. This 20 second wait is important, so that an RC-2A or RC-3 can be
used in conjunction with the K-202-DVA. For more information, see “Related Products” on the following page and retrieve

The PA-2A provides loud ringing and paging to electronic key systems, 1A2 Key
systems, PABX’s as well as No-KSU phones and multiline phones. Paging is
accomplished by connecting the PA-2A to a paging port or unused telephone line
input (trunk port) of nearly any phone system.
The PA-2A will also generate an adjustable loud ringing from up to 6 C.O. lines or
from a dry contact closure. Either a loud electronic warble, or one of three other
soft chime sounds may be selected. An external “night transfer” switch can be
added to turn loud ringing on or off in night bell applications. The PA-2A is easy
to install and eliminates the installation of multiple bells, relays and paging cards.
The unit comes complete with a power supply, amplifier and (1) paging horn.

A. Remote Touch Tone Controllers
The RC-2A Remote Controller provides remote relay operation from any standard Touch Tone
telephone.
The controller is designed to be installed either locally or remotely. For off-premise applications,
the RC-2A will answer analog C.O. lines or PABX/KSU stations after a selectable ring delay. A
field programmable access code can also be programmed to prevent unauthorized usage. The
RC-2A will then allow remote relay operation.
The RC-3 enables a standard Touch Tone phone to control up to 3 maintained ON, maintained OFF, or momentary relay contacts from a remote location. The RC-3 is
fully user programmable and uses non-volatile memory.
Up to three RC-3’s can be daisy chained on the same
line to control up to nine relays. The RC-3 features
switchable 12V talk battery allowing easy installation on the trunk port. In addition, the unit
can be connected directly to a C.O. line or analog PABX/KSU station.
For more information on using the RC-2A or RC-3 in conjunction with the K-202-DVA see
application note (Fax Back Document 878).

In the PA (Public Address) Mode the K-202-DVA constantly monitors both alarm inputs, just like in the alarm dialer mode. In
the PA Mode, all options for the inputs are still programmable (normally open or normally closed, momentary or continuous,
qualifier timer, etc). The PA mode is useful when the K-202-DVA is dialing the access code (or calling the extension num-
ber) of the paging system and playing the recorded messages over the loud speakers.
This mode eliminates all beep tones (used in the alarm dialer mode) provided by the K-202-DVA after the recorded message
has played, eliminating any beeps from being heard over the loud speakers. When the PA mode is enabled, the “forced play
timer” should be set to 10 seconds (see Section I) and the lap counter should be set to a value higher than one (see section
K), to allow the K-202-DVA to reattempt accessing the paging system if the page port is busy. When an input is activated,
the K-202-DVA will dial the access code for the PA system and listen for a busy signal. If the K-202-DVA does not hear a
busy signal, the “forced play timer” will expire and the recorded message will play (the programmed number of repeats). If
the K-202-DVA does hear a busy signal (and the lap counter is set to a value higher than one), the K-202-DVA will hang up,
wait two seconds then dial the access code for the PA system again.
The K-202-DVA will keep repeating this process until a busy signal is not heard or the lap counter reaches its programmed
value. Once the K-202-DVA plays the message or the lap counter expires, the K-202-DVA will return to idle and wait for
another input trigger. The lap counter in this mode is actually a counter for the maximum number of times the K-202-DVA
will attempt to call a busy paging port before it gives up. When playing emergency messages over the paging system, the
lap counter should be set fairly high to ensure the emergency message eventually plays, especially on systems with heavy
paging traffic.
