Special Lists - Telex Azedit Software Manual

Special Lists

A special list is a group of intercom ports a keypanel operator can talk or listen to by activating a single key. Special
lists are typically used for paging, all call, group call, etc. Special lists have default names such as SL01, SL02, etc.
The names can be changed to more meaningful names by using the Other Alpha setup screen. Members of a
Special List are defined through the Special List setup screen. Once a special list has been set up, typically keypanel
keys can be configured using Keypanel setup. Once the keypanels are setup, then a keypanel operator can activate
the special list key to talk or listen to all members of the special list.
IMPORTANT: Do not confuse special lists and party lines. A special list is used when a keypanel operator
needs to occasionally talk or listen to a group of intercom ports that are otherwise unrelated. A party line is
used when several users of non-keypanel devices (such as belt packs or camera intercoms) are engaged in
a specific common activity and need to talk and/or listen to each other all the time. Keypanels are almost
never members of party lines. However, a keypanel key can be assigned to occasionally talk or listen to a
party line, if desired. Party lines are primarily set up for party line members, with occasional access by
keypanel operators; while special lists are set up exclusively for keypanel operators to talk or listen to
several unrelated intercom ports.
