{{AI}} [[ File:EBMDR modules.png|thumb|right|500px|DAK key numbering on the Expansion Module EBMDR-8]]
This article describes how to configure the AlphaCom when using the Call Panel [[ECPIR-3P]] together with the Expansion Module [[EBMDR-8]]. 
Up to 4 expansion modules can be attached to one ECPIR-3P.

==Enable the use of the EBMDR-8 Module==
The following setting under '''Users & Stations''' > '''Station Type''' in AlphaPro must be checked to fully support the expansion module.

== Redirection of DAK keys ==
In general every user in AlphaCom has DAK tables for 20 DAK keys. When using '''more than one extension module''', one have to "borrow" DAK tables from other, unused stations.

DAK tables are "borrowed" by pointing to the other users in the DAK table of the ECPIR. This is done by using the symbol ">", followed by the '''physical''' number of the station from where we want to use the DAK table. Any free physical number in the range 1 to 552 can be used. However, it is recommended to use higher numbers to avoid conflicts if the system is expanded in the future.

The actual DAK key configuration must be entered in the DAK table of the station to which the ECPIR DAK table is pointing:

<br style="clear:both;" />

Several ECPIR stations may redirect to the same DAK tables if they should use the same DAK layout.

== Use as PA Panel ==
The DAK keys can be used to access different zones (= group calls). The DAK keys can be configured to call the group call when pressed, and cancel the call when released.
For configuration details, see: [[Group Call - PTT function]]

== LED Indications==
The DAK keys on the ECPIR and on the button expansion panels have two LED's each. The two LED's (red and green) are controlled using the [[IND]] command in the [[Event Handler]].

===Incoming Call Request or Ringing Group ===
To turn on the red LED, flashing fast, in the associated DAK key when a [[Call Request|Call Request]] is received, create this event:

[[File:CRMV CallReq.PNG|left|500px|thumb]]
<br style="clear:both;" />
{{Code2|
 IND %1.phy %1.dak(I%2.dir) 1 3
}}

===Outgoing Conversation===
To turn on the green LED in the associated DAK key when an outgoing call is made, create this event:

[[File:CRMV ConvOut.PNG|left|500px|thumb]]
<br style="clear:both;" />
{{Code2|
 IND %1.phy %1.dak(I%2.dir) 2 1
}}

===Incoming Conversation===
To turn on the green LED in the associated DAK key when an incoming call is received, create this event:

[[File:CRMV ConvIn.PNG|left|500px|thumb]]
<br style="clear:both;" />
{{Code2|
 IND %1.phy %1.dak(I%2.dir) 2 1
}}

===Door Status===
An input of the IP station can be connected to a door magnet, providing indication on the DAK panel, showing if the door is open or closed.

Example: <br>
To turn on the red LED in the associated DAK key when input 3 of the IP substation 159 is activated, create this event:

[[File:CRMV DoorStat.PNG|left|500px|thumb]]
<br style="clear:both;" />
{{Code2|
 OWN r 105
 IND %2.phy %2.dak(I%1.dir) 1 1
}}
 105 is the directory number of the ECPIR

===Station faults===
To turn on the red and green LED in the associated DAK key when a station is reported faulty, create this event:

[[File:CRMV StatErr.PNG|left|500px|thumb]]
<br style="clear:both;" />
{{Code2|
 OWN r 105
 IND %2.phy %2.dak(I%1.dir) 1 1
 IND %2.phy %2.dak(I%1.dir) 2 1
}}
 105 is the directory number of the ECPIR-3P
