Increased volume on ringing signal

This article describes how to increase the volume of the private ringing signal, and set it back to normal when the call is answered (or canceled).

As from firmware version AMC 10.23 the volume to a station can be changed by the data command VOL. By using the event type 9 - Private Ringing mode in the Event Handler, one can set a higher volume during the ringing, and set it back to a normal level when the call is answered (i.e. when the Private Ringing mode goes off).

In AlphaPro, Exchange & System > Events, create the event below.

Event Owner:	Stations with UDP, Id: 8 (all stations)
Event type:	09 - Private Ringing mode
When change to:	ON or OFF
When related to:	All
Action:	$VOL L%1.dir U%chg(6,3)

When the station starts to ring the volume is set to level 6, and when the ringing stops the level is set to 3.
