ALARM SIGNAL/DOOR BELL
Description
The system can be configured to recognize the status of an external contact (normally open or
closed). The system will signal assigned iPECS Phones when the contact activates. This
capability is commonly employed to provide remote Alarm or Door Bell signals to the user.
Assigned stations receive the Alarm Signal, either a single tone burst repeated at 1-minute
intervals or a continuous tone. The Alarm Signal may be terminated at the user’s phone by
dialing the Alarm Stop code or, if assigned, pressing the {ALARM STOP} button. To rearm the
Alarm function, the alarm condition must be cleared and the Alarm signal terminated.
When used as a Door Bell, assigned iPECS Phones receive a single tone burst each time the
external contact is activated and no reset is required.
Operation

At detection of contact operation, the Alarm/Door Bell signal is sent to assigned stations.
