4.8.1 Nomenclature
Alarm action: An alarm action consists of trigger conditions that leads to an action i.e.
sending a message to a handset in the system and/or activating an output.
One alarm action can consist of several triggers and lead to several actions.
The actions can be repeated at a regular time interval as long as an input is
active.
Input: An input on Unite CM or an input on an Alarm Module, connected to the A-
bus.
Output: An output on Unite CM or an output on an Output Module, connected to the
A-bus.
Trigger: A trigger is a set of conditions that have to be fulfilled, for example that an
input has to be open for a certain time period or that an alarm has been sent
from a handset.
Several triggers of the same type can be defined for each alarm action. The
actions will be carried out when any of the triggers is fulfilled.
Action: Sending a message to a handset, activating an output or initiating a push-
to-talk (PTT) conference call.
Escalation: If a message with confirmation request has not been accepted within the
set number of seconds, an escalation action can be started. If several
messages were sent, the escalation will be cancelled as soon as one of them
is accepted.
If, on the other hand, the message is rejected by all recipients, the escalation
will start immediately. Up to three escalation levels are possible.
