Other pushbuttons
The pushbuttons of pit and bottom of elevator car can only be connected to an
AL1 terminal block if they are of the same type as the car pushbutton (voltage
free or powered, normally open or normally closed).
The pushbuttons of pit and bottom of elevator car can only be connected to
AL2 terminal block if they are voltage-free.
Note: the reset input (AL2) must be configured as alarm input with
the “Inputs setting” programming (codes 390 or 55).

MINIMUM OPERATIONS TO VERIFY
PROPER INSTALLATION
1. PROGRAMMING
Access to programming: lift the local telephone handset and dial
.
The programming activated message will be heard.
Program a telephone number for the emergency-call alarm:
dial <telephone number> .
Record the identification message of the specific elevator, which is
meant to contain all necessary information concerning the elevator
location: dial and, after the “Correct” message, pronounce
the message and hang up.
To listen again to the previous message: lift the handset and dial
.
Make an external call to check the PSTN line or the universal gateway is
properly working: dial and digit the telephone number to make a test
call.
2. TESTING THE ALARM PROCEDURE
Press the emergency call button for more than 3 seconds (factory
value).
The alarm starts.
3. ANSWERING THE ALARM
Note: the activation mode of the communication with the trapped
person can be configured with the “Two-way communication
mode during an alarm” programming (code 78).
-1st mode: automatic two-way communication established after messages
(factory default)
Answer by the called party.
The two-way communication mode will be activated after the voice messages.
Speak with the trapped person.

Page 14 MINIMUM OPERATIONS TO VERIFY PROPER INSTALLATION
-2nd mode: two-way communication established after input of “Communication
activation” code
Answer by the called party.
The voice messages will be heard.
Press to speak with the trapped person.
-3nd mode: immediate and automatic two-way communication (no messages)
Answer by the called party.
Speak with the trapped person.
4. RESETTING THE ALARM
Note: the alarm reset mode can be configured with the “Alarm reset
mode” programming (code 77).
-1st mode: reset by “End” code (factory default)
Press to end the alarm.
-2nd mode: automatic reset
Hang up (or press ) to end the alarm.
-3nd mode: automatic reset with local acknowledgement
Hang up to end the call.
Press the reset pushbutton or close the reset input to end the alarm.
An end-of-alarm call will be generated.
Answer by the called party.
Press .
Without local acknowledgement the alarm is automatically ended after 6 hours.
Note: the reset input can be configured with the “Inputs setting”
programming (codes 390 or 55).
Note: in case it should not be possible to stop the alarm procedure
remotely (i.e. the entered telephone number is incorrect)
simply lift the handset of the local telephone and dial
* <Password> # (by factory default: ) or press the
reset pushbutton.

MINIMUM OPERATIONS TO VERIFY PROPER INSTALLATION Page 15
USING THE RESET BUTTON
Note: the reset operation does not alter the previously set
parameters.
Use of the reset pushbutton (C in the picture at page 2):
-Pressing shortly
Allows to interrupt an alarm call.
By pressing shortly you get the same result as lifting the handset of the
local telephone and entering * <Password> #.
-Pressing longer (10 seconds)
Allows to reset the device.
By pressing longer, the Helpy Compact-TL will be re-started with no need
to
disconnect the power supply.
Note: it is also possible to reset the device through the code
995*0#.
