What is the KENTROL Messaging System?
One of the most valuable functions of the Kentrol Energy Miser system is its ability to call a person for help. It has a very powerful messaging system that can call a predetermined list of numbers for various types of alarms, play a prerecorded message that is specific to that exact alarm cause, and await an appropriate response from the called party. That allows the system to be sure an appropriate person has been reached and that they understand the message. As the computer goes down through its list of numbers, it will await the required response from the called party. If it doesnt get it, it will continue down its list until it does. In this manner a called party can either give the response (by dialing a predetermined touch tone code), or simply hang up. If the called party just hangs up, others on the list will be called. . . the first called party may want to do this to insure that other help is on its way should the message be indicative of a problem the first person cant hand
