Acoustic Location Signal

All types of alarm can be followed by an Acoustic Location Signal (ALS). The ALS is an acoustic signal from
the handset that sounds for a predefined period of time to make it possible to by ear locate the person that
has initiated the alarm.
The signal is silenced by pressing the Mute button on the handset.
The ALS is not triggered if automatic call after alarm is active. However, if a call, for example an
automatic call after alarm, is already established during ALS, ALS will be silenced during this call.
The handset can be configured to request to enter a password to turn off the ALS.
