Assigning Alphas (names) to Intercom Ports
Intercom ports have names called Alphas. As a default, they have generic names, such as N001, N002, etc. Alphas
appear in the alphanumeric displays on keypanels equipped with displays. It is recommended you change the default
alphas to names more meaningful to your keypanel operators. You can also add brief descriptions to the Alphas to
further describe the port and help to distinguish for what the intercom port is being used.
To assign alphas to intercom ports, do the following:
1. From the Keypanel / Port screen, click Port Alpha.
The Port Alphas screen appears.
2. Double-click the port for which you want to change the default alpha.
The Edit Alpha Description screen appears.
3. In the Description field, enter a description of the Port.
There is a 24-character limit on this field.
4. In the Alpha field, enter an alpha for the port.
There is a 4-character limit on this field.
Note: The Alpha and Alias fields will be the same, unless you change the Alias field manually.
5. In the Alias field, enter an alias for the port, if necessary.
There is a 4-character limit on this field.
For more information on Alpha vs. Alias, see the screen description for Alpha and Alias.
