Delayed Call
From Zenitel Wiki
This article describes how to configure the ICX-AlphaCom in such a way that a call button from a substation must be pressed for a predefined time before the call is made to a master station.
Application areas:
- Elevators - Regulations: the call button must be pressed for some seconds before the call is made.
- Parking garage - Avoid unnecessary calls from playing children etc.
The Delayed Call functionality is controlled by the Event Handler, which is configured from AlphaPro.
In AlphaPro, go to Exchange and System -> Events, press Insert and create the following events:
Event 1 - When the call button (Subevent = 1) is pressed (=ON), start a 3 second timer (W30). Stop the timer when the button is released.
If any of the 6 I/O's on the Turbine are used, these are subevents 11-16.
Action commands:
$ST L%1.dir W%chg(30,0) L9000
Event 2 - If the timer expires, e.g. the button has not been released, make a call to 101.
Action commands:
$CALL L%1.dir L101
