Dynamic group call

Operation

• Press a dedicated "Group Configursation" 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.

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

• Each operator station is assigned its own Dynamic Group Call by entering the Dynamic Group Call number in the User Defined Parameter (%1.EXP) field of the operator.

Include the operator station in UDP Group 1, and enter the directory number of the Dynamic Group used by this operator (Here: 899)
