View source for Group Call - Increased volume

{{AI}}
This article describes how to '''increase the volume of a group call''' announcement. The volume is set back to default value when the group call is ended.

== Prerequisites ==
* This event is CPU extensive. Maximum members in a group using this feature '''should not exceed approx. 50 stations'''. (Not applicable for ICX-AlphaCom)
* Minimum software: AMC version 11.

== Configuration ==
In the following example the volume will be set to level 6 when group call 86 is called from stations in [[UDP group]] 2. The volume is set to level 3 (default) when the group call is ended.

When stations outside UDP group 2 dial group call 86 this event will not be triggered, and the volume will not be altered.

In [[AlphaPro]], go to [[Exchange_%26_System_%28AlphaPro%29#Events|'''Exchange and System''' -> '''Events''']], press '''Insert''' and create the following event:

{{Code2|
 IF %chg(1,0)
 tmp 0 "%gns(3,0)"
 LOOP
 IF %op(%tmp(0),<nowiki>=</nowiki>,0)
 STOP
 ENDIF
 $VOL N%tmp(0) U6
 tmp 0 "%gns(3, %tmp(0))"
 ENDLOOP
 STOIP
 ENDIF
 tmp 0 "%gns(3,0)"
 LOOP
 IF %op(%tmp(0),<nowiki>=</nowiki>,0)
 STOP
 ENDIF
 $VOL N%tmp(0) U3
 tmp 0 "%gns(3, %tmp(0))"
 ENDLOOP
}}


In the action strings above, there are two lines that defines the volume. Volume during group call is set to 6 (U6) by the command:
* '''$VOL N%tmp(0) U6'''


Volume is set to 3 (U3) when the group call is ended by the command:
* '''$VOL N%tmp(0) U3'''

U6 and U3 can be changed to other values if required.

In %gns(3, %tmp(0)) in the example, the 3 stands for group 3 (86), and must be changed if a different group is used.

Note that a standard feature exists, which might be a better alternative:
Group calls with "[[Groups#Group_Call_Setup_Priority|Setup Priority = Alarm]]" will automatically use the [[Volume and handset override|Volume Override feature]] of the ICX-AlphaCom, without any additional configuration required.
