Note

When the PC Call Station Client becomes disconnected from the PC Call Server, a new login is required after fixing the problem.

But when the PC Call Station Client starts up while it is disconnected from the PC Call Server (e.g. the network cable was disconnected or its network switch was powered off), a warning is given. After fixing the problem, the PC Call Station Client must be closed now and restarted in order to reconnect; there was not yet a remote connection established that can be restored.

60.6 User Interface

60.6.1 Overview

The PC Call Station Client screen is divided in four areas (panes):

1Call/BGM selection pane - A pane that allows you to select predefined calls or BGM channels. There are two tabs in this pane, one for selection of Predefined calls and one for selection and control of

BGM channels.

2Zone selection pane - A pane that allows you to select zones and zone groups. It shows the status of

the zones and zone groups using icon representations.

3Control pane - A pane that allows you to control the predefined call or BGM channel that you

selected from the Call/BGM selection pane.

4Status bar - Shows the status of the PC Call Station Client.

60.6.2 Make a call

Use the following procedure to make a call:

1 Select tab Predefined to get a list of predefined calls for this user.

2Select a predefined call from this list in the call selection pane.

3Optionally add zones to or remove zones from the selection in the zone selection pane. The selection may also contain zone groups.

4Start the call with the Start button in the control pane. The button changes into a stop button so that the call can be stopped. While the call runs, its progress is shown in the progress bar in the control pane: start tone, message(s), live speech and end tone. A predefined call does not need to contain all

of these elements.

5Stop the call. A call without live speech will finish even if not stopped.

6If the button has been configured for abort on repress operation, it is possible to abort the call now. The difference between stopping and aborting a call is

that a running message or tone is completed before a call stops while it is aborted immediately in case a call aborts.

The status bar may show a warning to the user in case of licensing/dongle problems. Optionally, depending on the user configuration, the list of predefined calls also contains a button to acknowledge and subsequently reset an emergency state.
