Operating Instructions
1.
General Information
When a push button on the Talkaphone Analog Call Station is pressed it will automatically
either ring the local phone or dial out using the phone line connected to the Telco
“
IN
” port
according to how the particular consolidator which it is connected is programmed. If the phone
line is being shared with another device (see p.5, sharing a line), the consolidator will seize the
line on behalf of the Analog Call Station.
When a call comes in to the
AOR-8 / AOR-16
unit , an LED will light indicating which Analog
Call Station is calling in. If a call is already being answered, any other calls which come in will
cause the appropriate LED to blink to indicate they are awaiting an open line. As soon as the
initial call has been completed, any calls that were waiting will be put through in the order in
which they were placed.
2.
Calling Talkaphone Analog Call Stations through the Area of Rescue Command Unit
To call from a remote phone, dial the telephone number of the Consolidator. To call from the
local phone, simply pick up the phone and select the phone line corresponding to the
appropriate consolidator. In either case, you will hear 3 beeps when the consolidator is ready.
Enter the code to route to an Emergency Phone, *4X* where X= Port #1-8. There will be a
short pause and then the Analog Call Station will answer with a series of tones.
For more information on Analog Call Stations, consult the Emergency/Information Phone
manual.
3.
Answering the Analog Call Stations
When a call comes in on either the local phone or a remote phone, the consolidators are
effectively transparent. That is, there will exist an open line of communication to the Analog
Call Station from the moment the call is answered.
