Configuring a Button as an All-Call Button

The button function is 'select all zones'. When the button is pressed, all outputs, which have been configured
as being affected by any zone selection buttons on the microphone, are selected for broadcast from the
microphone, i.e. the button press has the same effect as if all zone selection buttons on the microphone
have been pressed. Pressing a zone selection button will remove the zones associated to this button from
the selection. Any button may be configured as an All-Call button.
The 'Select' and 'Busy' LEDs will illuminate in the same manner as if all the individual configured buttons
have been selected.
The 'Select' LED on an All-Call button is an OR function of the individual button 'Select' LEDs, i.e. it will flash
if any of the individual button LEDs flash, and steady on if an access is made to any of the zones. The 'Busy'
LED only illuminates on an All-Call button if all corresponding zone-selects have their 'Busy' LED illuminated,
i.e. at least one output in each zone of the zones is busy.
