No person shall use or operate, or arrange, adjust, program or otherwise provide or install any device or combination of devices, including alarm systems, that will upon activation, either mechanical, electronically or by other automatic means, initiate an intrastate call and deliver a recorded message or coded signal indicating the existence of an emergency situation to any telephone number, including the 911 emergency telephone number, used for the receipt of emergency or governmental administrative messages by the sheriff of the county or by any local public agency providing fire protection.

    The term “telephone number” includes any additional numbers associated with such emergency or governmental administrative telephone number through the use of a rotary or other system whereby additional telephone calls to the number are connected to other numbers when the first number is in use.
