Sensor Detect Off Message
The Sensor Detect Off Message is automatically transmitted
when the Sensor Input is pulled high. Depending on the
sensor used, a typical message might be
“Door closed”
,
“Motion detected”
or “Vehicle present”
. The Voice Alert
Message is sent immediately before the Sensor Detect Off
Message, so a typical transmission might be
“South delivery
entrance”
followed by
“Door closed”
.
The Sensor Detect Off Message:
•
Is automatically transmitted when the Sensor Input is
pulled high.
•
Will not be sent if the radio channel is busy, but instead will
wait for the channel to clear before transmitting.
•
Is sent after the Call Tone and the Voice Alert Message if
the radio is programmed for those features.
•
Can be up to 3 seconds long.

The RQX 7-Series Callbox can automatically re-send the Call
Tone, Voice Alert Message, and DTMF or Selcall ANI a
programmed number of times when a call is not immediately
answered. This allows the Callbox to periodically repeat the
Voice Alert Message without further input from the Callbox
user. The periodic rate is determined by the RQX Reset
Time.
Following is an example of Automatic ID Re-Send
programming and its effect:
The Callbox is field programmed for:
•
Greeting Message “
Welcome to Ritron, someone will be
with you shortly
”
•
Voice Alert Message “
Main Entrance
”
•
Call Tone ON
•
Automatic Turn-Off enabled
•
RQX Reset Time of 20 seconds
•
Automatic ID Re-Send set to 1
Here is how it will operate:
•
A guest presses the Callbox On/PTT button and the
Greeting Message “
Welcome to Ritron, someone will be
with you shortly
” is heard on the Callbox speaker.
•
If the radio channel is not being used the Callbox will
transmit the Call Tone, followed by the Voice Alert
Message “
Main Entrance
.” This will be heard by all
system radio users, but not heard on the Callbox speaker.
•
If the Callbox is not answered within 20 seconds (RQX
Reset Time) the Call Tone and Voice Alert Message will
be re-transmitted (Automatic ID Re-Send).
•
If the Callbox is again not answered within 20 seconds
(RQX Reset Time) it will turn off (if Automatic Turn-Off is
enabled).
•
If the Callbox On/PTT button is pressed again at any time
before it is answered the entire process described above is
re-started.
•
If the Callbox is answered before it automatically turns off
the Callbox operates as normal 2-way radio
communication with no messages or Call Tone.

Table 7: Automatic ID Re-Send
Using Automatic ID Re-Send to Extend RQX Reset Time
A Voice Alert Message does not have to be used to enjoy the
benefits of Automatic ID Re-Send. This feature can also be
used to extend the RQX Reset Time whenever the Callbox
On/PTT button is 1
st
pressed, providing radio users additional
time to respond to the Callbox.
For example, if the Callbox is programmed for an RQX Reset
Time of 10 seconds and Automatic ID Re-Send of 5, the
Callbox will remain ON for 60 seconds (RQX Reset Time plus
RQX Reset Time multiplied by number of Automatic ID Re-
Send) after the On/PTT button is 1
st
pressed instead of 10
seconds (RQX Reset Time). Once the Callbox has been
answered it will turn off after 10 seconds (RQX Reset Time) of
inactivity.
