Example of use

Use case 1: On access panel

A common setup is where one button is used to record the recall and another button to dispatch the recall. This will allow the operator to verify the message before dispatching it out on the PA system if the ECPIR-P or the |ECPIR-3P is used.

Dak1 on_action: Recall, record with start Dak1 off_action: Recall, record with stop
Dak2 Recall, control with zones.
With this setup the operator can dispatch the recorded message to a static set of zones with the priority set on the recall control button. The operator can also decide to re-record the message if it is not suitable for dispatching.

Use case 2: On access panel

One button for record with autodispatch One button for dispatch

Use case 3: On Ci

One button for record One button for dispatch
