AlphaCom XE - Installation, Configuration & Operation
AlphaPro
4
Overview
4.1
AlphaPro 11 is the tool for configuring the AlphaCom XE system. It
is self-contained, and simple to install and use. When a new server/
exchange shall be configured, it is given a working default factory
setting (see tables in section 2.5). The operator can modify the settings
such as:
Directory information
●
Groups
●
Interfaces to CCTV, PA, paging, DECT
●
AlphaNet
●
Other custom behavior
●
There are currently over 100 defined features which can be
programmed with AlphaPro 11.
AlphaPro 11 is an off-line tool. This means that it is possible to enter all
parameters without being connected to the server/exchange. Once all
parameters are entered, AlphaPro 11 can be connected to the server/
exchange and the parameters can be sent. AlphaPro 11 can also upload
configuration information from a server/exchange.
AlphaPro 11 connects to a server/exchange via the IP network or a local
RS232 interface.
