== AlphaCom integration with A-B Systems ==
AlphaCom configuration of net routing related to the SIP connections from A and B Exigo controller require some attention to avoid issues with dual setup and arbitrary AlphaCom audio sourcing from A or B controller.<br>

From AlphaSys version 12.4.2.3, AlphaCom can be configured to prioritize audio from A controller if the following requirements are meet.<br>
If A controller fails the switch over from A to B audio will use approx 30 seconds.

==== AlphaCom Configuration Requirements: ====
* Net routing from AlphaCom to A controller must use EVEN node number
* Net routing from AlphaCom to B controller must use ODD node number
* Node number of B controller must be larger than node number of A controller.
* A and B Exigo controller must be configured with presiding node numbers. 
** Example:
** Controller A = node 2 . 
** Controller B  = node 3.
* The AlphaPro Net routing flag "Exigo" must be used for A and B controller
* The AlphaPro Net routing flag "Monitor trunk" must be used for A and B controller 
* Exigo must trigger the feature "118 Program Source" in AlphaCom for audio distribution to AlphaCom group(s). (Or local group call)

== Availability ==
This function is available from Exigo 1.3 and newer.
