Using Your AutoDialer
Thank you for purchasing an AutoDialer. This manual will
familiarize you with the features and operation of your new
AutoDialer. Please read this manual thoroughly before using
your instrument.
Item #3419 AutoDialer is compatible with #3672 Alarm Output Module or any other continuous, momentary, normally
closed (NC) or normally open (NO) dry contact voltage sensor. The AutoDialer will dial up to four numbers with a recorded message up to 16 seconds when the sensor or output
module opens or closes the circuit.
The following instructions will simplify installation of an
AutoDialer with your WatchDog Weather Station.
Normally Open Activation Hookup
With WatchDog and #3672 Alarm Output Module
1. Program the AutoDialer message and number(s) per the
instructions included with the unit.
2. Program the AutoDialer to normally open (NO) and
momentary activation, no exit or entry delay per the instructions on pg. 11 of your AutoDialer manual.
3. Trim or cut off the U-shaped terminals on the 4 wire
leads on the AutoDialer power/alarm cable so they will
fit into the terminal connectors on the Alarm Output
Module. Splice wire extension if needed.
4. Connect the RED and YELLOW l eads from the AutoDialer power/alarm cable to the COM terminal on the
Alarm Output Module.
5. Connect the WHITE and BLACK leads from the AutoDialer power/alarm cable to the N.O. terminal on the
Alarm Output Module.

screen to the desired parameters and launch the station.

Your AutoDialer is now ready for use. It is strongly recommended that you perform a test to ensure functionality. Test
instructions are provided in the AutoDialer Manual.
Activation Hookup with Other Sensors or Control Systems
Please refer to the AutoDialer Manual or 3rd party manufacturer instructions. Wiring instructions are provided for normally open, normally closed, or voltage level activation
setup.
Important Notes:
The power/alarm cable provided with the AutoDialer has been
tested with up to a 400ft. extension using 24-gauge wire. It is
estimated this wire can be extended up to an 750ohm impedance. You can test impedance using a volt meter with impedance capability. If in doubt, test your application first!
When using rainfall as an alarm actuation in SpecWare, be
aware that the relay will not activate/deactivate unless the
amount of rain that falls during the logging interval exceeds
the set point.
The set point seen in the SpecWare launch options screen may
change slightly to ensure functionality with the selected parameters.
