1,024. These ports shall be capable of being configured to support all combinations of
ATELs, CTELs, STELs, ICC ports, OCC ports, and loudspeaker stations. The system
shall be expandable in groups (ports) of four for the ATELs, and 16 for the STELs and
speakers.
I. System Tones: The system shall provide a minimum of 26 distinct user-programmable
system tones, each of which shall be programmed from a selection of up to 22 tone types
and two program sources. These tones shall be programmable by type, level, and
duration, as desired. The following programmable system tone events shall be available:
1. Emergency page pre-announce.
2. Civil emergency.
3. Auxiliary alarm.
4. Emergency reminder tone.
5. Page pre-announce.
6. Normal reminder tone.
7. Custodial tone.
8. Door tone.
9. Intercom pre-announce.
10. Privacy tone.
11. Event tones 1–16
J. System Paging: The system shall have a minimum of 32 user-assignable groups of
stations for zoned audio paging. The system shall allow each field station or paging
speaker to be a member of up to 32 multipurpose zones, or no zone. Paging may
originate from any master station and shall exclude the local loudspeaker associated with
the source of the page. The system shall allow a telephone to be associated directly with
a loudspeaker by assigning them the same dial number. The system shall include
programmable page or intercom priority over class change tones and preprogrammed
events. Class change tones occurring simultaneously with an all page or zone page shall
be programmable to be delayed until the active page has concluded. Communications
with each classroom loudspeaker shall be hands-free. The staff member or occupant in
the classroom need not operate any buttons to reply to a call. Initially, fully functional
programmed zones shall be provided as noted below. Coordinate with the ASD Project
Manager to determine exactly which speakers in which areas will be included in each
zone.
1. Zone #1 - Interior classrooms, relocatable classroom buildings.
2. Zone #2 – Corridors, restrooms, janitor rooms, mechanical rooms.
3. Zone #3 – Gymnasium, library, MPR.
4. Zone #4 – Exterior speakers.
5. Zone #5 – Offices, administrative areas, and work rooms.
6. Zone #6 – Spare.
7. Zone #7 – Spare.
8. Zone #8 – Spare.
K. Audio Priorities: All audio functions in the system shall operate within the following priority
scheme:
1. A lower priority event shall be interrupted by a higher priority event.
2. Interrupted lower priority functions (automatic) shall be restored after conclusion
of the higher priority function. If an event is initiated while a page is occurring, the
event shall be optionally delayed until the page is complete.
3. Telephone conversations shall not be interrupted by the above listed functions.
4. The following priorities are ranked from highest to lowest;
5. Emergency intercom
6. Emergency page
7. Civil emergency
8. Manual time tone and high priority event tone
9. All call and zone page
