POTS-1 Call Actions

A Call Action is used to assert the operation of a POTS-1 Virtual Control via the phone PIN pad.

Depending on the Control Event type, the Call Action may also be able to be configured with the User option in which the caller will be prompted to select the desired state for the Virtual Control.

When more than one Call Action is configured for the POTS line, an Action ID will be required to be entered via the PIN pad to select which Call Action should be executed. If only one Call Action is configured for the POTS line, the action will be executed immediately after the call is answered on that line, i.e. the caller will not be prompted to provide an Action ID.

Call Action ID - Each POTS line can be assigned a list of Call Actions identified by Call Action ID's.

Virtual Control Input -Each Call Action is pre configured to activate or deactivate a single Virtual Control, which in turn will trigger the associated Control Event.

Control Event - Details the Virtual Control Input Control Event as specified on the Virtual Control tab.

Assigned Value - Details the specific type or value of the Control Event.

Action - Depending on the Control Event type and Assigned Value, the available Action choices range from Activate, Deactivate and User. If User is selected the person calling will be presented with the option whether to Activate or Deactivate the Control Event.
