When the call is answered, if distinctive dial tones are enabled, dial tone 3 is heard, and continues until the
user goes on-hook. If the sensor call is not answered within a specified time, the call will be cancelled. It is
possible to set a different ring tone pattern for calls received from each external sensor, to distinguish
between them.
Conditions
•
Hardware Requirement:
An external sensor and a DOORPHONE card
To connect an external sensor to a legacy gateway (→ 5.3.1 Stacking Connection), refer to the
documentation of the legacy gateway.
•
Some devices may be unable to communicate correctly with the PBX. Confirm compatibility with the
manufacturer of a device before installing it.
•
After a sensor has been activated, the PBX will ignore any further alerts from the same sensor for the
duration specified by a timer. This timer can be set separately for each sensor.
•
As long as the previous sensor call is still being performed, any further alerts from the same sensor are
ignored.
•
The assigned sensor name and/or number are shown on the display of PTs and PSs when a sensor call
is received.
•
If the destination of a sensor call has set FWD, the sensor call will be redirected to the FWD destination.
However, if the FWD destination is not supported as the destination of a sensor call (e.g., an outside
party), the call will be received at the original destination. (→ 2.3.2 Call Forwarding (FWD))
