Hi Spanky,
Is there any way to single-fire an Elk message that is not documented?
I would really like to leverage the paging functionality of Panasonic PBX's in order to notify occupants of window & door openings and closures with plain English spoken language. The advantages of this approach are many; the phones are already typically installed in every location you'd want and the cordless functionality can't be beat, there's a built-in local muting function in the form of "Do Not Disturb" and the paging volume can sometimes be locally adjusted -- meaning; no new wires, no new speakers and no new local volume controls. It's actually the perfect delivery mechanism.
As one might expect, occupants will quickly tire of repeatedly hearing a paged message until it times-out -- or having to push keys to acknowledge the message. It would be great if a single-fire mode was available in the panel itself -- but, frankly, I'd be happy to deploy an external option (as mentioned earlier in this thread) if it could provide this functionality.
Thanks for your response.
