Re: VISTA 15SE ?

["Jim Rojas" <jrojas@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When creating an account, the first thing compass asks for is a receiver.
Type in LOCAL then the next section can be account # 0001. This should keep
them in some kind of order. Monitoring stations usually have a receiver #
associated with all accounts.

Examples:

LOCAL-0001 is a local account (dialing nothing or your own personal
receiver)
12-1243 is a monitored account (dialing 800-555-1212)
E900-1277 is a monitored account on two way voice.(dialing 800-666-1212)
E720-0312 is a monitored account using ITI format. (dialing 800-777-1212)

Each receiver # represents a different dialing number. You should keep the
receiver #'s the same for all accounts dialing into the same number. The
possibilities are endless.

Thanks...I got it going, sorry for unclearness.

My question really is...contacting local systems...do they have to have an
account # (i think yes)? Trying (in my mind) to figure out how to group
local acct numbers so I don't get them confusted with monitored accts.

The stuborn monitored panels will require me to go out an add remote ability
or clear the CSID...since I hardly used to use Compass some panels werent
initially programmed or have old CSIDs in them.
