Doorphone Alert Extensions (#606)

Doorphone Alert Extensions (#606)
Description
This System Programming procedure identifies extensions that are signaled when
a doorphone button is pressed. When a person uses the doorphone, it signals all
alert extensions at the same time. If the alert extension is a system phone, the call
signals with a unique
ding-dong
sound to distinguish it from other calls.
Additionally, if you have two doorphones, they signal with different tones so you
can distinguish between them.
Related Features
■ You must use Doorphone Extensions (#604 and #605) to identify the
extensions to which doorphones are connected.
■ If Do Not Disturb is active at a doorphone alert extension, the person at
the doorphone hears signaling, but the alert extension is not signaled.
■ If a Contact Closure on the Contact Closure Adjunct controls a door lock,
consider assigning the Doorphone Alert Extensions to the Contact
Closure Group (#612) for that Contact Closure. Only extensions assigned
to that Contact Closure Group can activate the door lock.
Considerations
You cannot bridge two doorphones together.
