I just added the phone moduel but I have voice mail supplied by the phone
company rather than an answering machine. This does not appear to be
addressed in the installation manual. If I set field 95 to 15 and call from
outside, let it ring once, then call again, I get a fax tone which seems to
be the panel picking up rather than the phone module. Is there a way around
this?

Yes. Set field "95" to something other than 15. If your phone module picks
up after three rings, you may want to set your the field to "4".

Thanks for writing but I'm not quite clear.

If I set the field to 3 (or 4), how does the system pick up phone messages
since the actual home phone line does not answer (i.e. the phone company
voice mail picks up)? I assume that the phone module will pick up all
calls at 3 or 4 rings If I set it higher (at 5 or so), the voice messaging
system (not on the premises) will pick up the call before the phone module
does.

It seems like I need a system similar to the "15" setting where I can trick
the phone module into picking up early before the voice messaging system
picks up. True?

You're quite right. I would suggest you put your alarm system on a separate
line from your home phone service.

That answers the question. Thank you.
