PrisCom station - Configuration

Tamper and Vandal Proof Station - 1007061000

100 7063 000 station

This article describes the configuration of the PrisCom stations 1007061000 and 1007063000.

Software requirements

• AMC software v.9.09 or later
• AlphaPro 9.21 or later

Starting point

The station properties are programmed from AlphaPro.

Basic features: Start with a new AlphaPro database and fill in all parameters from scratch.

"Basic features" are:

• Call Button
• Program Step button (without displaying selected channel)

Advanced features: When using the advanced features of the station, a preprogrammed AlphaPro database should be used as a starting point. The advanced features is depending a lot on Event Handler programming, and a lot of work is saved by using an already preconfigured database.

"Advanced features" are:

• Light button
• External key switch
• Corridor lamp and/or group lamp
• Display for selected program channel
• Tamper alarm and Power failure
• Scream alarm
• AlphaVision support

Basic feature programming

The 7061 and 7063 uses “Two tone DAK signaling", not regular DAK signaling 

• In Users & Stations -> User Preferences set DAK signaling to "(3) Two tone signaling w/ack“
• In Users & Stations -> DAK assign numbers to the panel buttons: 
  • DAK 2 = Call button
  • DAK 3 = Program button (not available on the 100 7061 000)

Advanced feature programming

Copy the PrisCom database to the AlphaPro Database folder. Start AlphaPro and select the PrisCom database.

Guard station configuration

• In Users & Stations -> UDP, include the station in UDP 1
• In Users & Stations -> Group, include the station in a “Guard group”. This is required even with a single guard station

Prison station configuration

• In Users & Stations -> UDP, include the station in UDP 2
• In Users & Stations -> UDP, enter the “Guard group” index number in the Used Defined Parameter field. This is the target for calls from this station.

Notes on DAK programming:

• No DAK programming is required
• The event handler programming in the PrisCom database will automatically set “Two tone DAK signaling”, and program the DAK’s to point to physical station 500 and 501
• Physical station 500 and 501 are preconfigured with PrisCom Station DAK keys

Upload to the AlphaCom

• First time after configuring the database it is required to use “SendAll” from AlphaPro
• Reset the AlphaCom, let it recognize all stations, and then reset once more
• The special dual reset is only required after adding new prison stations
• Do a “GetAll” to update AlphaPro with the correct settings
• Later changes of system settings only require “SendChanges”
