A Remote Control Input (RCI) is triggered by an external potential-free contact.
Typical external triggers are fire and gas alarm systems, temperature detectors, doors, lifts, alarm buttons etc.
An RCI signal can be received by a number of devices:
| Device | # of RCI's |
|---|---|
| AlphaCom XE20/26 | 6 |
| AlphaCom XE7/1 | 2 |
| IPARIO unit (IP) | 8 |
| RIO unit (analog) | 8 |
| IP Substation | 3 |
| IP Flush Master | 3 |
The AlphaCom XE supports up to 140 inputs.
The set-up for the RCI input and the actions you want it to activate is very flexible. An RCI can activate almost any function in the exchange by using action commands, either Built-In Action Commands or Data Protocol Commands. The configuration of the RCI's is done with the AlphaPro programming tool.
Some examples of features that can be activated:
- Dispatch prerecorded voice messages to stations and PA system (fire alarm etc.)
- Show status information on a DAK48 panel, e.g. door open/closed
- Send text message to a station or a group of stations, e.g. temperature warning
- Set up group calls, audio program or conferences
- Activate Call Forwarding
- Control Remote Control Output
etc.
In AlphaPro there is an RCI table, where the physical address is entered, along with the desired actions. The physical address is given as device + pin-number.
- For internal RCIs, the device address is 65-68, and the pin number is 1-6.
- Internal pin number 8 is the temperature alarm.
- Mappings for the internal RCIs in the master are autoloaded. Mappings for RCIs in slave modules and RIO units must be manually programmed.
| %nbsp | RCI Type | Device/Station Number | Pin Number |
|---|---|---|---|
| AlphaCom XE | Device | 65-68 | 1-552 |
| IPARIO unit (IP) | Station | 1-552 (pys no) | 1 - 8 |
| RIO unit (analog) | Device | 1 - 64 | 1 - 8 |
| IP Substation | Station | 8 | 8 |
| IP Flush Master | Station | 8 | 8 |

Software
- AMC 10.50 or later can use RCIs in slave module (devices 66-68). (SW in the slave modules must also be upgraded)
- AMC 07.20 or later to have access to all features.
- AMC earlier than 07.20 has the following access to control features:
- Mail message to a station or a group of stations.
- Mail message to a pocket pager.
- Mail message with notification to a station or a group of stations.
- Audio program to a station or to a group of stations .
- Conference set-up for a group of stations (may include mobile units).
- Turn Remote Control Output (RCO) ON or OFF.
- Handset/volume override for a group of stations.
- Generate customized serial data output (External Data Output EDO).
- The RCI activation (ON and OFF) can be logged on printer or PC.
