IP Heavy Duty Station

This article is applicable for IP Heavy Duty Stations (Version 2) used in ICX-AlphaCom mode.

AlphaPro Configuration

Hotline Call

Enable the hotline function by selecting the hotline station in the listbox in Users & Stations, select the Station Type tab, and check the Hotline flag:

Enable the Hotline Call flag



In Users & Stations, select the DAK button, and enter the call destination on DAK 7:

Call station 321 when lifting the handset


If the hotline call should generate a call to a Ringing Group instead, enter "I 6701" on DAK 7. If the call should be cleared when replacing the handset, enter "C" on DAK 8, else leave DAK 8 blank.

Send Call Request to station 101 when lifting the handset, delete the Call request when replacing the handset


Hotline Call Delay

By default there is a 5.0 second delay from the handset is lifted until the call is placed. To change the delay time, select Exchange & System > System > Calls and Options. By setting the value to "0" the call will be placed immediately when the handset goes off-hook.

Default hotline delay is 5.0 sec. Change from 50 to 0 for immediate call


Direct Access Keys D1 to D3

The Full Keypad models have three Direct Access Keys, D1 to D3, which will trigger DAK key 1, 5 & 7 in the ICX-AlphaCom.

Configuring button D1, D2 and D3 in AlphaPro, Users & Stations > DAK window


Call Indication (optional)

Audible indication

Audible call indication can be provided by connecting an external loudspeaker. The IP Heavy Duty station is primarily designed for outgoing calls and does not include an internal speaker for incoming call alerts. To enable audible notifications, an external loudspeaker can be connected to the loudspeaker output on the PCB (terminals P6‑1 and P6‑2). The loudspeaker must have an impedance of at least 8 Ω. No additional configuration is required. The call alert (ringing signal) volume is adjusted in AlphaPro.

Ringing in External Loudspeaker


Note icon The internal ringer unit inside the station is not used by the IP Heavy Duty model. The housing is shared with the analog versions, which operate on standard 2‑wire telephone lines where the ringer is activated by the ringing voltage from the telephone exchange. Although the ringer is not used by the IP Heavy Duty model, it remains installed to preserve the station’s IP rating. Removing it would compromise the enclosure’s environmental protection.


Visual indication

The built-in relay in the IP Heavy Duty Station can be used to operate an additional call indication device, such as a rotary light.

As the built-in relay has limited switching capacity (Max. 60 watt. Max voltage: 250VAC/220VDC. Max current: 2A), one might have to use an external power relay for switching the light. The IRR-3 relay box (Item 102 0600 992) is suitable for this purpose.

Configuration

The built-in relays in the IP Heavy Duty Station is controlled by the RCO command in the event handler.

To map the relays of the IP Station to logical RCO's, select Exchange & System -> RCO. Pick a free RCO, select Change and set the RCO Type = Station, enter the physical number of the IP Station, and set pin number = 7 (8 for the second relay).

The relay of IP Station 144 is mapped to RCO 10.


In Users & Stations, select the IP Heavy Duty telephone from the list box, then press Events, and Insert a new event with the following properties. This will cause the relay to operate during the ringing of an incoming call.

When station 144 receives a call in private ringing mode, RCO 10 will be operated. This will again operate the relay and the rotary light.
