Correct.  What have you programmed in the zone reporting codes??  You can't
leave them as "FF" in pager format.  For instance:

Alarm Report:

Zone 1 - 31
Zone 2 - 32
Zone 3 - 33 ...

Restorals:

Zone 1 - 41
Zone 2 - 42
Zone 3 - 43 ...

Program your fire zones with a different lead-in digit.  Instead of a "3"
for instance, use a "1".  Try and avoid "0's" in your account number.  Go
with "1,2,3,4", or "2,2,2,2".  Make sure the system is reporting alarms and
restorals on the same phone number.

If you need more help, email me.

Good luck!!
