2.3 Calls on System
In the event of a Call/Alarm signal being sent by a unit the display will show the name and type of call for staff
to attend. The call will remain on the displays until the unit has been reset. If there is more than one call on the
system, they will rotate.
Calls will also be displayed on any staff pagers and re-paged every minute until reset (re-page time
configurable). When a call has been attended to and the unit reset a Cancel message will then be sent to
the pagers to inform staff.
2.4 Control Panel/Display Sounders
The Control Panel/Display sounders will make a different noise depending on what type of Call/Alarm is on the
system, so staff can audibly differentiate between the Call types:
CALL TYPE SOUNDER TYPE
Assistance Fast Intermittent
Emergency On Constant
The panel will return to normal operation only when the unit sending the call has been reset.
If Sounders/Flashing Beacons are fitted to the system, these can be programmed to activate on various call
levels or call point types.
2.5 Silence Button
Pressing the Silence button on any of the Display units when a Call/Alarm is on the system will cause all the
sounders to remain quiet, the Call/Alarm information will still remain on the Displays.
If a Call/Alarm remains unanswered, the sounders will resound after 4 minutes to remind staff that the Call still
needs attending to. Emergency alarms will cause the panel to resound after 1 minute. (Sounder silence times
are configurable)
If the Silence button has been pressed following a Call, and then another Call comes onto the system, the
Sounders will re-sound to advise staff that there is another Call which needs attending to.
