Selection call
The user can make an announcement in freely selectable circuits or groups.
Confirming one or more selection buttons selects the circuits or groups in which the
announcement is to be made. The corresponding green LEDs illuminate. A line that has already
been selected can be disabled again by pressing the corresponding selection button again,
and the relevant green LED switches off. If the yellow LED of a selection button has not
switched off, the corresponding zone/group is not free (see section Indicators, page 24).
Once the selection has been made, the call is started by pressing the ↵ button. Prior to this,
the ↵ LED indicates whether all lines or the call station input are free. If individual lines or the
input is occupied by a lower-priority event, the ↵ LED flashes slowly. An announcement can
still be made, but this will interrupt another event. If individual lines or the input is occupied
by a higher-priority event, the ↵ LED flashes quickly, and the call request is ignored (see the
indicator descriptions).
During the announcement, the ↵ LED illuminates green. The ↵ button must be held down until
the end of the announcement.
The ↵ LED starts to flash green if a user is interrupted by an event with higher priority. In this
case, the announcement must be repeated.
After releasing the ↵ button, the selection remains until the next change. Pressing the DEL
button twice deletes the entire selection.
All-call
The announcement is made in all system circuits. The procedure is the same as for the
selection call. First, all system circuits are selected by pressing the DEL button. Pressing the ↵
button activates the all-call. The green LEDs for all existing circuit or group buttons and the
DEL LED illuminate during the call (see section Indicators, page 24). The ↵ button must be
held down until the end of the announcement. The ↵ LED behaves in the same way as during
the selection call.
General alarm
Announcement mode
There are 15 selection buttons with
corresponding LEDs. These are used to select
individual circuits or groups for announcements,
gong/alarm signals, speech reproduction, or
program assignment (press once = on, press
again = off). The LEDs show the current selection
status (see section Indicators, page 24). The
buttons can also be assigned a special function
or no function (no assignment). The functions
are assigned when configuring via a PC.
This button is used to start an alarm signal,
which is transmitted to programmable circuits.
The alarm LED illuminates as soon as the alarm
is triggered. Pressing the ESC button stops the
alarm again. The alarm type is defined during
configuration of the PROMATRIX system.
