Message and alarm systems

Aastra 400 supports several message formats and message protocols for imple-
menting messaging, monitoring and alarm systems.
Internal messaging system for system phones
The internal messaging system for system terminals allows users to exchange pre-
defined or user-defined text messages between system phones. Text messages can
also be sent to individual users or message groups.
The internal messaging system does not have an interface with which it can be ad-
dressed directly. However it can also be operated via OIP.
External messaging, monitoring and alarm systems
The powerful ATAS/ATASpro protocol is available via the communication server's
Ethernet interface for applications in the security and alarming sector. This protocol
can be used to implement customised alarm applications. An alarm appears on the
display of system phones, complete with the freely definable user functions that
apply only to that alarm. In addition the duration of the tone as well as its volume
and melody can be freely defined by the user for each alarm.
The cordless DECT phone Aastra 630d is specially designed for applications in the
security and alarming sector. Besides a special alarm button it also features a man-
down alarm, a no-movement alarm and an escape alarm. Sensors inside the phone
constantly check the handset's position and motion. An alarm is triggered if the
phone remains in a virtually horizontal position or motionless for some time or if
the handset is shaken violently.
