System Overview - Talkaphone AOR-24 Installation Manual

IV.

System Overview

1. Local Mode
In Local Mode, pressing the button on any of the Talkaphone Analog Call Stations will cause the
built-in local phone at the command unit to ring.
2. Remote Mode
In Remote Mode, pressing the button on any of the Talkaphone Analog Call Stations will cause
them to access a phone line to dial out. For this configuration, connect an outside phone(s) line
to the "Telco IN" position(s) on the appropriate bank(s).
3. Mixed Mode
Mixed Mode is primarily used when a central control point is not constantly attended at all times.
When a Talkaphone Analog Call Station calls and the AOR-24 / AOR-32 unit is in Mixed Mode, it
will ring the AOR-24 / AOR-32 command unit's built-in local phone first, ring it a second time if no
one answers the first time, then if no one answers the second time it will dial a remote number. If
no one should answer the remote number, it will re-ring the local phone and continue this cycle
until either the phone is answered or times out (See Emergency Phone Manual for information
on setting the time-out).
When an attendant leaves, that person can enter the code *36* to configure the controller board
to ring the remote phone first and then switch to the local phone (See p.14, Section VII, System
Programming). For Mixed Mode, connect an outside phone line(s) to the "TELCO IN"
terminal(s). This programming must be done for each of the controller boards (three (3) controller
boards for the AOR-24 or four (4) controller boards for the AOR-32).
NOTE: See p.2, Technical Requirements, for outside phone line requirements.
