Operator Local Station
The local telephone may be used to perform priority paging in local and emergency
situations from touch-tone telephones. The Terminal provides 48 Vdc to power the
telephone set to operate its audio and touch tone circuitry. The caller places a page by
lifting the handset of the local telephone, waiting for the prompt and overdialing the pager
number and entering the message.
This page is then assigned priority 3, no matter what priority the pager is normally set to
via the database. You can set a higher priority in the
trunks.cus files (see System
Configuration Files on page 217).
Hardware settings are the same as for DID selector level (see previous paragraphs).
Software settings specify local operator telephone priority input.
Configuring for End-to-End Loop Start Operation
End-to-End Loop Start/PABX Station Description
End-to-end loop start (pots) telephone lines are the same as those for private residences. A
single telephone number, when dialed by any paging customer, causes a ringing signal to
be sent down the telephone wire pair to the Terminal. When the Terminal answers the line
by drawing loop current across the tip-ring wire pair (off-hook), the telephone company
connects audio between the caller and the Terminal and reverses the battery voltage to the
telephone. The Terminal then sends a single beep or a voice message to the caller to have
the caller key a pager number on his/her telephone keypad. This so-called “overdialing”
after the call is connected must be performed with touch-tone telephones equipped with
polarity guard. Rotary telephone dial click decode is available as an option.
