Dynacord DTI 2000 owner manual Configuring the DTI

The DTI 2000 outputs a “High Busy” signal when one or several high priority zones are busy. A tone-sequence indicates that a text message is being played back. Text message playback normally stops automatically but manually stopping the function is possible as well by entering the STOP- function number code (default setting = 0 respectively 00).

6.Macros

The DTI 2000 allows launching macros that are programmed in the DPM 4000 System Manager, thus providing access to special functions. For example: switching relays, starting and stopping signals, entering parameters, launching test sequences, and many others. The macro function can only be accessed from access level 2. No other number selection is accepted if the selected one or two-digit number represents a macro function. Pressing the asterisk key (*) launches a macro. The DTI 2000 acknowledges this request with a single tone signal, indicating that it is operational and ready to accept desired macro command. It sends a two-tone signal, when entering an incorrect command or if there is any other problem.

7.Cancelling a Function (Break)

Cancelling an announcement is possible using the hash mark key (#) (Break). The current zone selection is cancelled as well, while the connection to the DTI 2000 is not interrupted. The appliance acknowledges the request with a single tone signal and it is ready for new entries (a new zone selection, launching text message playback, triggering macros).

The hash mark key (#) can also be used to clear erroneously made entries. Using the hash mark key (#) directly after selecting a text, announcement, macro or stop function prohibits the function from being executed, but erases it instead. The DTI 2000 is ready for new entries.

8.Hang Up / Cancelling a Connection

Using the asterisk key (*) directly after making an announcement or pressing the hash mark key

(#)forces the DTI 2000 to drop the connection and “hang up”. The DTI 2000 also interrupts the connection when the calling party hangs up. However, in that case, a few busy tone signals are output via the PA-system, which can be rather disturbing. Therefore, dropping the connection through the use of the asterisk key (*) is always preferable.

The DTI 2000 can also be configured to automatically drop a connection after a definable period of time. This is especially useful to prevent the PA-system from being blocked by a telephone announcement over longer periods or that it is constantly blocked because of malfunction or faulty connections. The period of time after which the DTI 2000 automatically drops a connection can be set in a range between 20 seconds and 10 minutes via the internal DIP-switch S203.

Configuring the DTI 2000

The PC Designer software allows custom configuration for the DTI 2000 to match any specific application. The programming procedure is equivalent to configuring a paging console. Programming a paging console’s function keys relates to the programming of a call number table for the DTI 2000. This table holds the assigned functions of up to 100 one or two-digit numbers (0 to 99). The buttons 1 to 99 on a console correspond to the call numbers and the table entries 1 to 99. The 100-key represents the call number or table entry 0 (respectively 00) and, as standard, another entry in the table is reserved for the talk function, which can be activated from a telephone set using the asterisk key (*).
