Hotline alarm
Note:
This function is used mainly by nursing staff in the health sector.
Situation:
Patient A requires assistance and picks up his handset. Once an adjustable delay
has elapsed, the configured hotline destination number is dialled automatically. It
can be the call number of a nurse B or a user group comprising several call num-
bers of nursing staff. The Aastra Alarm Server detects the call from the patient to
the hotline destination via CSTA interface and responds in accordance with its con-
figuration. A nurse answers the call and is now connected through to the patient.

parameter to

istered by the Aastra Alarm Server.
