The AlphaCom system is prepared for distribution of audio programs. There must be an external audio source as input to each program, a radio, a cassette player, a CD-player or other sound input.

A number of audio programs are available, depending on the system configuration. By default 6 programs are available. Using the additional Program Distribution Boards (AGA) gives the possibility to distribute another 16 programs. Two such boards can be installed in the exchange, so the maximum number of available programs in the system is 38.

Audio Program selection

To select a program, dial the program number (default 801 - 806, 8101 - 8132). The program is temporarily disconnected by outgoing and incoming calls, but remains on during Group Calls and All Calls.

To switch off a program, press the C-key or dial 800.

When lifting the handset the dialing tone is normally heard, replacing any program. To listen to the program with the handset off, simply hold the M-key down while lifting the receiver, and the dialing tone is not turned on.

Additional Information

  • Each Program Distribution Board installed reduces the maximum number of subscribers in the system by 6.
  • APF boards were earlier used for program distribution. They have been replaced by AGA boards.
  • Priority Programs are not turned off during calls. (programmable per program).

Stepping Through Available Programs

You can step through a list of available programs by dialing 790 on your station. Program off (800) is always included in the list. There are two alternative program step sequences: 3 or 6 programs.

The sequences are after autoload :

  • Program 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and off.
  • Program 1, 2, 3 and off.

When you are listening to a program you have the following options:

  • 790 - step up
  • 791 - step down
  • 792 - restore last

Additional Information

  • The number of programs in each sequence is programmable. The sequence setting is valid for the entire system.
  • Each station can choose between sequence 1 or 2.

Software

  • AMC 06.00 - step down and restore last.

Program Priority

Program can be given 4 different priority levels affecting the program in the following way:

* low the program is turned off during conversation.
* medium and high the program remains on during conversations.
* alarm activates the handset & volume override for InterGuard stations if the program is activated by remote set-up to Group. This is used to distribute an alarm message as a program.

Turning on Programs at Other Stations

From selected stations, for example a control room station, you can remotely set up a program to another intercom station, or to a group of stations. To set up a program remotely to another station, dial 74, then the subscriber number and the program number. To set up a program to a group of subscribers, dial 75, the group number and the program number.

Additional Information

  • It is possible to prevent stations from canceling programs.
  • After a reset of the exchange, the program set-up is restored.

Software

  • AMC 07.01 to prevent stations from canceling programs.
