6.1.1.1 Station Check-In
During Check-In, a Normal call placed by a station to the Admin Sta-
tion places a station in check-in status. If two-part check-in is used, a
second Normal call verifies the check-in status.
After a station has successfully checked in, additional Normal calls
will go through as normal calls to the Admin station. Stations can still
place Urgent or Emergency calls during the Check-in process, even if
the station has not checked in.
If audio prompt feedback is enabled and a station checks in, the
caller hears a confirmation prompt. If audio feedback is disabled, sta-
tions checking in with digital call switches will still see a ringing status
(flashing green) for about 2 seconds while checking in. Stations
checking in with IP phones will notice a call lasting about 2 seconds
before automatic hang up.
A VoIP Speaker Only station that does not have a call switch can still
participate in the check-in process if an I/O controller Input contact is
connected to a switch present in the room that contains the VoIP
Speaker Only station. In this case, the I/O controller Input contact
closure can trigger a Routine that performs a check-in.
If a station with call switch is configured to only place Urgent or
Emergency calls, the station cannot participate in the Check-in pro-
cess. This station should either be added to the Exclusion List (see
"Managing Exclusion and Vacancy Lists” on page 108). Or if you wish
to include the station in the Check-in process, the station’s CoS con-
figuration should be changed to allow Normal calls to be placed by
the station.
6.1.1.2 Check-In Done and Finish
After all stations included in the Check-In process have checked in,
the Manage Check-In Status changes to Done.
Since stations that were not expected to check in may do so, check-in
is not completed until you select the Finish button.
Selecting the Finish button can trigger a routine if you have a routine
that uses Check-In as the trigger Type and Finished as Check-In.
6.1.2 Stopping the Check-In Process
You can end an active Check-In process by selecting the Stop button
on the Station Check-in view. An active Check-In process can also be
stopped by a Routine action.
