User ID on the Intercall 700 System.
How the displays show who is calling*.
With the Intercall 700 system, it is possible to display the residents name, was well as
their location when calling. We call this feature ‘User ID’. In order to register their name
on the system, the resident must trigger the call point with an infra red trigger assigned to
their name. All Intercall 700 Call Points are fitted with an infra red receiver which picks
up these signals.
Standard Calls/Assistance Calls/Priority Calls.
The main difference when the User ID is enabled, is that both lines of the LCD are used
for each call. On the top line, the location is displayed as previously and on the lower
line, the User ID is displayed. Above left, is a standard call from ‘Bedroom 14’ activated
by the trigger allocated to ‘Mary Robinson’. To the left shows the factory default ‘User
No’ rather than the residents name.
Secondary Descriptions*.
Four User ID’s are reserved as System User ID, these allow common descriptions to be
allocated to other calling devices, connected to the call point. For example, a ceiling pull
switch in an en-suit bathroom may be given the secondary description “EN-SUIT BATH”
This will be combined with the room description when the switch is activated to produce
“BEROOM 14 EN-SUIT BATH” as shown on the left.
More than one call active.
When more than one call is active, the calls are scrolled on the LCD display as normal
but you can only see one call at any time. Each call is shown with the corresponding
Caller ID. On the right we have a second call activated, with call number ‘2’ and this
time from ‘Peter Jenkins’ in the ‘Dining Room’.
No User ID.
If a call point is not triggered from the infra red trigger, it is not possible to establish
which resident activated the call point. When this occurs ,the lower line of the display
reports ‘No User ID’ as shown on the left. This feature can be disabled at the
commissioning stage.
