Question
How does the system alarm report
feature operate?
Answer
Use station class of service to assign
one or more stations to receive the
alarm signal. Once this is done, there
are three possible events that could
trigger an alarm. They are:
1. Parity errors
-
These indicate data
transmission problems between the
telephone and the common equipment.
2. Disconnected telephone
-
This
indicates the station number, the time,
and the date that a station was
disconnected.
