The device on which the alarm is set. Alarm is reset after the call is
Acknowledged (LRMS [E2] messaging)
The Input Module from which the alarm was set (eCAP, eAPI or
eIO).
An Incoming Confirmation call from eDMSAPI.
You can use the I/O to set an alarm using a push button. This is issued
after the button is pushed, and is handled as a SENT alarm. The alarm
cannot be reset by a push button.
The SENT, SET, and RESET commands:
SENT. An incoming alarm that uses the specification SENT
(Remove after SENT) is sent to the device, and withdrawn after
an Acknowledge from the handset. If the device answers the call
(Acknowledge), the alarm is reset.
SET. This command sets an alarm that is only reset after a Reset
is sent from the same Input Module to the same Group/Alarm Id. In
the case of a V.24 input module that sends a message string, the
same message string must appear in the reset command.
RESET. This command can reset an alarm that was earlier set
using a SET command.
For the command to be successful, the alarm input must be exactly
the same as that set by the SET command, with exactly the same
message. In the eAPI Module, the Alarm ID, and the Group must
be the same, but the message can be different. Note that in the
eAPI all outstanding alarms are reset, after receiving a reset
command.
If an alarm is set, and you have set an overflow to an Alternative
device, the overflow is only activated after the device gives a NAK at
each retry and the retry counter is expired.
If you send a normal message to a DECT extension that is within reach
of the radio signals and is switched on, the overflow never takes place
because DECT Messenger receives an ACK. Only if the handset is
switched off, or not in reach of radio signals, does the DMC generate
a NAK; then the message goes to the Alternative device after the
specified number of retries.
If you send an urgent message to a DECT extension, and the user of
the DECT extension does not press OK or Delete on the handset, the
DMC sends a NAK after 30 seconds ringing time. The message goes
to the Alternative device after the specified number of retries.
If an alarm is set, and an overflow occurs to an alternative device,
the alarm can only be reset, with an alarm input from the same Input
