Alphacom Configuration

Scheduled paging from Bellcommander

In this configuration Bellcommander will dial a given extension number (usually a group number) and play a Wav file on defined intervals.

Create SIP extension in AlphaCom

First step is to configure an extension in the AlphaCom that Bellcommander can register on.

Create a standard SIP extension:

Configure group with automatic-M from SIP clients

To make group calls possible from SIP clients, we need to enable automatic M-key from SIP clients in the Group configuration.

In AlphaPro go to "Groups" -> "Local Groups" -> "Change" -> Select "Automatic M-Key only from SIP calls"

Configure Bellcommander registration

Open BellCommander and go to "Devices" -> "SIP Destinations"

SIP Server: IP address of AlphaCom
SIP Server Port: 5060
Domain: empty

Press "Apply"

The next step is to add extension that Bellcommander will dial to play the messages.

Under "SIP Destinations" select "Add"

In the screenshot under, All-Call (84) is added as a destination.

Then we add which extension BellCommander will register to.

Under BellCommander SIP Extensions select "Add"

Pages triggered from AlphaCom

SIP Extensions for Emergency Notification allows AlphaCom stations to dial BellCommander for emergency notifications.
Emergency notifications can be triggered by clicking emergency buttons in the BellCommander interface or by dialing emergency codes
