NOTE: System Handshake is a
feature required by certain
PBX systems: when they
access the paging system,
they require a return
acknowledgment signal – the
“handshake” – from the
Controller.
Use Alias numbers, if optioned.
Otherwise, use Physical
zone/group numbers.
This option selects the type of output for an individual output zone. The
choices here are Audio/Normally Open, Normally Closed, System
Handshake, Momentary Open, Toggle, Phantom, and Attendant Access
Handshake. The Audio/Normally Open option is the default. The
primary use for the Normally Closed Or System Handshake is to
determine how the switch closure is to function.
When the System Handshake option is chosen, the closure will energize
when a valid Off Hook condition has been detected. The Attendant
Access Handshake zone provides an output contact closure when
Attendant Access interface is ready to make a page.
A Phantom Zone is an output zone that exists only in software. If a page
is made to a Phantom zone, the controller will send a message to an
attached monitoring device (if configured) and will issue confirmation
tone, but will take no action with respect to the zone’s hardware. This
allows uninstalled zones to be used to select messages on a visual
display.
The Momentary Open and Toggle options are intended to be used for
controlling door striker plates, for instance, to permit a security door to be
unlocked. The Momentary Open will stay energized for as long as the
zone is selected. The Toggle will stay energized until the zone is
selected again. Neither of these modes will respond to an Attendant
Access page or an All-Call page. Repeat this procedure for each output
zone.
