Dispatch a prerecorded message at a preset time |
The built-in Scheduler function in ICX-AlphaCom can be used to dispatch prerecorded messages or time signals at preset times and preset days.
Typical applications:
- Timed signaling at schools
- Alert message before closing time at libraries and shopping malls
- Information messages at airports and train stations
Configuration
Upload WAV file to the ICX-AlphaCom server
The wav file containing the voice message or time signal must be uploaded to the ICX-AlphaCom server via the web interface of the server.
The wav file must have this format:
- 16 bit samplerate
- 16 Khz
- Mono
Sample wav files can be found in the download section.
The ICX-AlphaCom must have an Audio Messaging license installed.
Log on to web interface, and go to System Configuration > Messaging.
Select Message Group = 30. Group Index is the message id. Good practice is to assing the first message the index 1, second message index 2 etc. The message with index 1 is automatically associated with directory number 8191, index 2 with directory number 8192 etc.
Select Message Group = 30, and Group Index = message number id. |
See details here.
Configure the Scheduler event
The Scheduler feature is a part of the Event Handler module in ICX-AlphaCom.
In AlphaPro, select Exchange & System > Events, and Insert a new event. Set the Owner Type = Scheduler. A new window is opened, in which you fill in the weekdays and time, or alternatively the date and time.
Setting time and weekdays. Here: trigger at 16:45 Monday to Friday. |
Next step is to fill in the Action Command. For distribution of prerecorded wav-file we normally use the DP Command $GM (GROUP_MSG).
Specify which message to send to which group |
Explanation of action command $GM L85 L8191 U1 U0 U0
- $GM - Group Message command
- L85 - Destination group
- L8191 - Announcement message for playback in group
- U1 - Number of repetitions. Here: play once
- U0 - No gong signal
- U0 - Use default Setup Priority
Change parameters as required.
To modify the time and date of an existing Scheduler event, press the button Details.
If multiple times are required, simply create a new Scheduler event for each time.
