The modes of operation are as follows:
 Page/Party
® - Delivers a live voice page (not pre-recorded) to the page line output. The party line is
held open following the page.
 Record Page - Records a page, and delivers it to the page line output.
 Mixed Mode - Records a page, delivers it to the page line output, and holds the party line open
following the page.
 Live Page Mode - Delivers a live voice page (not pre-recorded) to the page line output. The party
line is not open following the page.
 Ring Mode – Does not deliver a page, but instead plays a configured message on the page line to
signal the incoming call.
 Manual/Disabled – The Telephone Interface does not automatically answer a phone call. However,
an input can be configured for “Manual Access” to allow an attendant to manually answer the phone,
and transfer calls to a party line.
The AMI can support two modes of operation: Day and Night Mode. The Day and Night modes can be
configured independently of each other.
As an example of the Day and Night modes, Day mode may be configured to allow callers the ability of
paging and subsequent party line communications. The Night mode may be configured to play a tone
over the paging system alerting personnel of an incoming call. In this mode, the call can be answered at
any Page/Party
® station.
ADVANCE Operation
The Page/Party ® operation allows for the AMI(s) to play messages/alarms and connect telephone calls to
an ADVANCE system.
Since the AMIs are interfaced to an ADVANCE system, the operation of the Telephone Interface is as
described above, and includes all page modes. The selection of a party line is hardwired in the
ADVANCE system, and cannot be changed by the caller or the AMI configuration.
Scheduled events and live pages can be played through the ADVANCE system to a specified zone group.
Zone groups are configured using the ACT tool. Configured zone groups can be assigned to individual
events, messages, or the AMI auxiliary microphone jack.
