Operating Instructions
1.
General Information
When a push button on the AOR-CSE Station is pressed, it will automatically either ring the
local phone or dial out using the phone line connected to the
“TELCO IN”
port according to
how the controller board is programmed (i.e. local mode, remote mode, or mixed mode).
When a call comes in to the
AOR-24 / AOR-32 Command Unit
, an LED will light indicating
which AOR-CSE Station is calling in. If a call is already being answered, any other calls which
come in will cause the appropriate LED to blink to indicate they are awaiting an open line. As
soon as the initial call has been completed, any calls that were waiting will be put through in the
order in which they were placed.
