is reset. It simply registers on the system as an alarm, and a one time page

Wireless Transmitters
The heart of the AllCall© Call Station is the
GE Door/Window Wireless Transmitter. This
transmitter functions on the GE 319.5 licensed
frequency and it is powered by a 3v 1300 mAh
lithium ion battery. Under normal operation, the
transmitter is rated to last 3-5 years. However
this is subject to transmission volume. The Transmitter features a spring
loaded tamper switch that is activated when the cover is removed. The
device will also send a “Low Battery” signal to the control panel when the
battery level drops below a certain point. The transmitter can be tripped in
three different ways, through the dry contact screw terminals, or the two
reed switches. These activation methods are selectable via a jumper that
comes installed over two pins in the bottom corner of the circuit card. This
jumper selects which inputs the transmitter will respond to. In order for it to
respond to the screw terminal inputs, the jumper must be removed.
Additionally, when using the screw terminals on the transmitter, an end-of-
line (EOL) resistor must be installed between the input device (flip-flop
board on bed stations, slide switch on bath stations) and the screw
terminal. If this resistor is not installed, the transmitter will emit a tamper
alert every time the device is alarmed. For more information, please refer to
the manufacturer’s manual.
It is important to note that the wireless transmitters can be
programmed into the control panel in two different ways, forwards and
backwards. Forwards, means that the call station sends an alarm when the
call station is put into alarm and it resets when the call station is reset.
Backwards means that the call station sends an alarm when the call station
is reset and resets when the call station is alarmed. In order to prevent
this, it is important to put the call station into an alarmed state before
the tamper is tripped and the transmitter is programmed.
