You can set up to 100 emergency numbers for the phones to dial. However, you must first
configure the additional emergency numbers in System Manager. You can then use the parameter
PHNMOREEMERGNUMS to specify these additional emergency numbers in the
46xxsettings.txt file or in the Avaya Aura
®
System Manager.
Note:
When in failover, the Emergency Number must be provisioned on the SIP gateway or the user
will not be able to dial it.
The local proxy routes emergency calls from a user at a visited phone so that the local emergency
number is called. When PHNEMERGNUM is administered, using the Emerg softkey overrides the
SPEAKERSTAT parameter setting or a user-selected preferred audio path. This means that even
if the Speakerphone is disabled, it becomes the default path when the user presses the Emerg
softkey.
Administering audio equalization
Part 68 of the Federal Communication Commission (FAC) rules governs the connection
concerning Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) and volume control for phones. The HAC feature is
an alternative way to provide audio equalization on a handset, from the acoustic standards
specified in TIA-810/920 and S004, and may be of benefit to some users of t-coil capable hearing
aids.
• Settings File: The administrator can set ADMIN_HSEQUAL. The default value, 1, specifies
Handset equalization that is optimized for acoustic TIA 810/920 performance unless
otherwise superseded by Local Procedure or User Option. The alternate value, 2, specifies
HAC.
• Local Procedure: When users are denied access to Options for administrative reasons, but
individual users need an equalization value other than the one in the settings file, the
HSEQUAL Craft Procedure provides another method to administer the deskphone with the
audio equalization value that you require. Use the Craft password to gain access to the
Admin Procedures screen. The default password is 27238. "Default" uses the settings file
value unless superseded by User Option. "Audio Opt." is optimized for TIA-810/920 acoustic
performance, and "HAC Opt." is optimized for HAC telecoil performance.
• User Option: The user can select "Default" by which the deskphone uses the settings file
value (unless superseded by Local Procedure), "Audio Opt." which uses Handset
equalization that is optimized for acoustic TIA 810/920 performance, or "HAC Opt." which
uses Handset equalization that is optimized for electrical FCC Part 68 HAC telecoil
performance.
• Handset equalization options are effected in the following order:
- The deskphone uses the User Option value if selected and saved.
- If a Local Procedure value was selected and saved, the deskphone uses the local
procedure value.
- If a Settings file value is specified and saved the deskphone uses that value.
- If none of the above options are set, the deskphone uses Handset equalization that is
optimized for TIA-810/920 acoustic performance.
