the same or another extension. To reset the alarm using eDMSAPI
(IC), the CLI of the calling extension must be entered here as the
pincode.
Priority
Reserved for future use.
Retry count alternative device
Retry count alternative device defines how many times the
application tries to deliver the message before switching to an
alternative device (if one is defined in the list of Alternative Devices in
the Groups and Devices menu). The default value is 30. Therefore, if
an alarm has a silence interval (defined in the alarm properties) of 120
seconds, the alarm is removed for this device after one hour (and set
for the alternative device, if defined).
A value of 0 indicates that the application never tries to send the
message to an alternative device, and that the alarm is sent to the
device every silence interval until the alarm is reset by the input
program, for example (a reset). A value of 1 indicates that after one
attempt, the application clears the message for this device and send
the message to the alternative device, if defined.
Note: In this second case (value=1), the switch to the alternative
device is immediate (that is, there is no silence interval between
the two calls). Therefore, you must ensure that there are no loop
conditions defined in the list of alternative devices.
A value of 2 indicates that the alternative device is contacted after the
second attempt.
IO Register
This parameter is only applicable for devices that are assigned to
output program eDMSAPI.
All devices with this value set to True are monitored by the eDMSAPI
to see if an E2 message is sent. After a device sends an E2 message,
the message always goes to DECT Messenger directly (and not to
the destination number). Messages sent to DECT Messenger are
processed by DECT Messenger in the same way that messages
from other input devices are processed. There must be a correct
specification in the eDMSAPI inbound configuration that points to a
group and an alarm. The message is sent to the group members in the
group that is assigned to the inbound configuration in the eDMSAPI.
Alternative devices
Use this parameter to assign one or more alternative devices to a
device. After you click this item, a panel at the right side of the window
displays the list of possible alternative devices. Select New from the
menu to add an alternative device. Select Edit to make changes in the
list of alternative devices already assigned to this device.
