Alarm - System 4-11
Alarm - System
Description
The system administrator may establish system-wide alarm notifications through system
programming for various desired events. There are eight system alarm times that are
maintained in the system programming. These alarms occur continuously, for the desired
times, 7 days a week. For instance, if a system alarm is set once for 12:00 PM (lunch break),
this alarm will occur every day at 12:00 PM and does not have to be reprogrammed for
the following day. The alarm alerting is actually a one-minute period of Background
Music played over every station's speaker.
Conditions
†
An external music source is required for this operation. The same music source used
for Background Music is applied to the System Alarm Clock.
†
Stations listening to BGM will not hear the System Alarm.
†
If a station user is on a call (using the handset or speakerphone) during the alarm
period, or in Do-Not-Disturb (DND) mode, the music alarm will not play at that busy
station.
Alternate Answering Position
Description
A second station can be programmed as the alternate attendant. The alternate
answering position serves as a back-up position to the primary attendant. CO ringing will
forward to the alternate answering position after the pre-programmed Ring Alternate
Position time.
Conditions
†
Any key telephone may serve as the Alternate Answering Position.
Alarm sound is reset at the station if the station goes off-hook and then back on-hook.
In reference to the time and date message display, the station number or station name will
be displayed in the Day service mode; otherwise, the message NIGHT will be substituted,
indicating Night service mode.
