2.3 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 IP and LDP Phones when the contact
activates. This capability is commonly employed to provide remote Alarm or Door Bell signals.
Assigned stations receive the Alarm Signal, either a single tone burst repeated at 1-
minuteintervals or a continuous tone. The Alarm Signal may be terminated at the phone by
dialing the Alarm Reset code or, if assigned, pressing the {ALARM RESET} button. To rearm
the Alarm function, the alarm condition must be cleared after the Alarm signal is reset.
When used as a Door Bell, assigned iPECS IP and LDP Phones receive a single tone burst
each time the external contact is activated and no reset is required.
