Operation

For best performance it is recommended to use CRM V station or ECPIR-3P panel, as these devices have buttons with LEDs showing status.

  • Press a dedicated "Group Configuration" DAK key. The red led in key starts flashing, and the Dynamic Group is emptied.
  • Select stations or local groups to be included by pressing the associated DAK keys. A steady green led in the keys indicates that the stations/groups are included
  • Press the "Group Configuration" button again, and the group call is activated (the ding-dong chime is played). Pressing the `M`-key opens the microphone.
  • The green leds continue to be lit during the group call
  • Cancel the group call by pressing the `C`-key. The green LEDs are turned off.
Note icon One can only include, not remove, stations/groups into the dynamic group. If a wrong selection is made, press the C-key, and start the selection over again.
