Installation
Tools needed: Small Phillips Screwdriver;

Large Phillips Screwdriver; Small Standard
Screwdriver.

Set Up:

1. Install the back-up battery (included) into the auto
dialer. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove screw
above battery cover (Figure 1-2). Remove cover by
sliding downwards. Plug in battery pack making sure
not to force onto pins incorrectly. Put battery pack in
space provided, close battery cover, and replace the
screw.

3. Connect the power supply to the dialer by inserting
the red wire into the 12V+ terminal and the black wire into the OV terminal (Figure 2). Using a
small standard screwdriver, turn the screws on the terminal to secure the wires.

4. The dialer can support two alarm trigger inputs (normally open) plus a tamper alarm output
(normally closed).

TAMPER ALARM: The tamper alarm is alarmed
when the button on the back of the dialer
(Figure 1-3) is depressed. If the tamper output is
to be used it is important to be sure the button is
depressed when the unit is mounted. The tamper
terminals can be connected to any existing
security system or alarm that accepts a normally
closed input trigger. If the tamper output is not
connected to any system, the jumper wire must
remain between these terminals.
TR1/TR2: Triggers 1 and 2 support sensors with
normally open outputs. For Trigger 1, the sensor
wires would be connected to the TR1 terminal
and the OV terminal (Figure 2). For Trigger 2,
the sensor wires would be connected to the TR2 terminal and the OV terminal. (Note: Since these

terminals are simply “switches” there is no positive or negative. The wires can be hooked up either
way.)

5. Plug the supplied phone cord into the “LINE” jack (Figure 1-4) and then into your home phone
jack. If you wish to connect a phone at the dialer location, you can connect the phone to the
“PHONE” jack (Figure 1-5) on the dialer.

6. Continue on to the Advanced Operations to program your dialer or refer to the “AD-01 Quick
Reference Programming” on page 14.

How to stop the Dialer from dialing the telephone numbers in sequence:

When the Auto Dialer starts dialing, it will dial the rst telephone number and repeat the
pre-recorded voice message for 1 minute. If there is no response from the phone, then it
will hang up and dial the next number until all the programmed numbers for that alarm are
dialed. It will repeat this dial sequence three times and display ‘NO ANSWER’ if there is no
response from any of the phone numbers. To stop this dial sequence, press the * key on the
telephone keypad that is receiving the call. At that time, the Auto Dialer will stop its dialing
sequence and the alarm (if programmed) will stop. If the local alarm has been programmed
as active, then pressing the # key will stop the dialing sequence, but the alarm will continue
to sound until timed out. In both cases, the Auto Dialer will remain ON, waiting for any
further alarm.
Quick guide: Answer the phone and press # or * to stop dialing sequence.

How to change the back-up battery:

Important: It is recommended to change the back-up battery at least once a year, even if
the battery is not low.

1. First make sure that the Auto Dialer is OFF. Then release it from the wall.

2. Remove the battery door and take out the old battery. Insert new 9V battery and make
sure it is in the correct polarity.

3. Fit the battery door and mount the Auto Dialer back onto the wall.

AD-01 Slave Manual.indd 12 10/15/2009 10:20:45 AM

HOW TO RESET THE AUTO DIALER
Inside the battery compartment:

Remove the power supply and the Auto Dialer from the wall. Remove the 9V battery. Inside
the battery compartment is a switch. Move it to the ERASE position. Connect the power to
the Auto Dialer then press DELETE twice. There will be 2 short beeps from the Auto Dialer.
Switch the power o again. Place switch back to NORMAL. Replace the 9V battery and
place back onto the wall. Power the Auto Dialer back up. The Auto Dialer will then return to
factory default setting.

NOTE AND CAUTION:

A leaking battery will result in poor performance and could damage the system. It is
recommended that the batteries be periodically checked. Change the batteries at least
once a year to maintain the system.

DO NOT mount the Auto Dialer in areas that are exposed to extreme heat or moisture, as
this could adversely aect the performance of the system.

Use only a damp cloth and general household cleaning agent to wipe the unit clean. DO
NOT use turpentine, thinner, gasoline or similar substances to clean the unit.
