Configuring contact closure

Contact closure hardware configuration

To configure your hardware for contact closure:
1. Connect an Avaya Partner Contact Closure Adjunct to the Contact Closure port on the
Avaya G250/G350 Media Gateway front panel. The Contact Closure port is labeled CCA on
both the G250 and the G350 front panels. Use a telephone cable with standard RJ-11
connectors.
2. A qualified electrician should connect the electrical devices to the relays on the Avaya
Partner Contact Closure Adjunct. For information on contact closure specifications, see
Overview for the Avaya G250 and Avaya G350 Media Gateways, 03-300435.

To configure the Avaya G250/G350 Media Gateway to activate contact closure when the feature
access code is dialed:

command sets contact closure to work in relay 1 of the Avaya Partner Contact Closure
Adjunct when activated by the call controller.

2. Use the set contact-closure pulse-duration command to set the length of time
for the relay to return to normal after the call controller triggers it. In the following example,
the command sets relay 2 of the Avaya Partner Contact Closure Adjunct to return to normal
5 seconds after the call controller triggers contact closure in the relay.
