8.1 EMERGENCY CALL
8.1.1 VOCAL EMERGENCY CALL
Pressing ny of the l rm push buttons (for the time
set in Push-button l rm filter), the l rm c ll is
ctiv ted.
The V18 spe ks in the lift c r the mess ge "Your

numbers to techn c an 3 and 4. The answer ng
mach ne m ght lead the V18 to cons der the call as
successful.
8.1.2 DIGITAL EMERGENCY CALL
During c ll to digit l number, fter h ving t ken
the line nd di lled the number, the V18 receives
two cknowledgement (synchronizing) tones (1400
nd 2300Hz frequencies), nd then sends the l rm
code2, ccording to the selected digit l protocol.
The digit l receiver sends confirm tion of reception
with pre-set tone (1400Hz frequency). After 3” the
V18 ctiv tes the h nds-free mode llowing the
tr pped people to spe k with the digit l receiver.
If within 60” from the c ll, no confirming sign l
rrives, the c ll is considered f iled. The V18 tries to
c ll the number of the emergency service unit for
m x number of times equ l to the p r meter v lue:
Alarm attempts to central unit

•w it for the hands-free Time to run out;
•h ng up the phone;
8.1.4 TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE CALL
The technici n th t goes to the lift for n ssist nce
intervention, c n c ll the V18 in ny moment. The
