Programming Tools
AlphaCom
The programming tool for AlphaCom is AlphaPro software version 10.28 or higher.
Download the latest version here.
AlphaPro is used to identify M100 modules as nodes in the AlphaNet and to configure the AGA audio routing.
M100
The programming tool for M100 is SysMain software version 3.0. It is available on request from alphasupport@zenitel.com.
Audio Link Interface
The Audio Link Interface Unit is powered from the M100 module. Solder a 3-wire power cable to the three solder studs labeled +5V, 0V (GND), and -5V on the M100 backplane. Connect the other free end of the cable to a 3-way plug-in screw terminal that connects to the receptor labeled -5V GND +5V at the back of the Audio Link Interface Unit.
Data Connection
AlphaCom
Use a crossed RS232 cable with female 9-pin D-sub connectors at each end to connect the AlphaCom XE7 serial Port 0 to the Audio Link Interface connector labeled AlphaCom RS232.
M100
The M100 system communicates via optical fiber cables. The opto cable (LBB 7103/61) connects from the M100 Computer Card (LBB 7103/05) to the Audio Link Interface Unit. On the Computer Card, connect the opto cable to the connector labeled Module 1 (assuming that the M100 is a single-module system). The other end of the opto cable connects to the receptors labeled M100 Serial - Opto at the back of the Audio Link Interface Unit.

Door Opening
This application describes how to perform door opening from Alphacom to M100, and is based on the AlphaCom Ringing Group Feature.
The M100 Door Station dials a number (in this example 511), we then direct this call to a Ringing Group in the AlphaCom. The Ringing Group contains one (or more) stations that should receive door calls.
AlphaPro
Ringing Group Members
In Groups -> Local Groups scroll down to group 51 - Ringing Group 1. Choose which AlphaCom stations that should receive door calls as members:
