Text Message
A text message recorded via the optional message module or using an external recording/playback device can be
transmitted into any selectable area or group of the entire installation.
First, the desired areas / groups have to be selected; either by use of the selection keys or via the ALL key.
Pressing the TEXT key starts the reproduction of a prerecorded message that had been assigned during
configuration. While the text message is being transmitted, the TEXT LED lights steadily or blinks (also refer to
indications). The text message priority can be set to values between 2 and 8.
Pressing the STOP key cancels the transmission of a text message.
General Alarm
A general alarm signal is always transmitted to all lines of the entire installation.
Pressing the covered ALARM key launches the integrated alarm. The key lights during the transmission of the
alarm signal. The priority of the alarm can be set between 7 and 9. Therefore it has priority over any
announcement or other event, except for those that were ignited from the directing paging station (priority 10).
Pressing the STOP key or subsequently pressing the ALARM key cancels the alarm.
Selective Alarm
When a paging station is equipped with a second ALARM key providing the option for selective alarms, it is
possible to transmit alarm signals into selected lines.
Similar to the procedure for making a selective call you first have to select areas or groups to which the alarm
signal shall be transmitted. Afterwards, pressing the covered ALARM key starts the selective alarm. The key lights
during the transmission of an alarm. Already now, you are able to enter the lines for the following alarm.
Pressing the STOP key or subsequently pressing the ALARM key cancels the alarm.
When shipped, there is no factory pre-set selective alarm pre-programmed.
Note:
The launch of an alarm does not depend on a paging console’s priority setting it had been
activated from. Launching an alarm is possible from any microphone terminal at any time,
even when the system is in stand-by mode. A running alarm is optically and occasionally also
acoustically indicated at every paging station.
Canceling Signals
Pressing the STOP key cancels alarms, gong signals and text message transmissions. Events can only be
terminated at the paging station they were launched from with the exception of the directing terminal (paging
console with the highest priority possible 10). Through the directing station it is possible to cancel any signal in
progress.
