This guide explains how to Control or Use the lights on the light stack that is attached/wired to BSC, TIM or PSM. The VersaCall system uses Actions to turn Outputs (lights for this guide) On, Off or Blink. This guide shows a typical setup for the lights where each alarm uses an output/light. If you have a need for something different, please go through the guide so that you get a good understanding of how things work then setup what makes sense for your needs.

Overview
This guide explains how to Control or Use the lights on the light stack that is attached/wired to BSC, TIM or PSM. The VersaCall system uses Actions to turn Outputs (lights for this guide) On, Off or Blink. This guide shows a typical setup for the lights where each alarm uses an output/light. If you have a need for something different, please go through the guide so that you get a good understanding of how things work then setup what makes sense for your needs.


Requirements
See Requirements Here
1. The VT3000 Core Software installed and running on your system.
2. A Coordinator must be setup, powered and communicating with the VT3000 Core Software.
3. A BSC, TIM or PSM IO Module, with an attached Light Stack, powered and communicating with the VT3000 Software.
4. An existing BSC, TIM or PSM configuration with Lights setup as Outputs.


Completion Steps

Step 3.
Select the Monitoring Points tab.
3137 16.png




Step 4.
Select the alarm, from the Root, that you want use a light with so that it is highlighted.
CallLts8.png




Step 5.
Select the Actions tab.
3137 19.png




Step 6.
The Alarm we selected was setup as a Tri-State alarm. We will need to setup an Action for each State (Set, Acknowledged, Clear). The end result will look like the image below:
3137 20.png




Step 7.
Select the Add icon from the Actions toolbar.
CallLts1.png




Step 8.
Action Properties that need to be setup for the Set state of the alarm:
3137 21.png
State – select Set.
Type – select Modify Discrete Output.
Action – select Blink.
Output – select the output/light. We are using Red for this example.




Step 9.
Select the Add icon from the Actions toolbar.
CallLts1.png




Step 10.
Action Properties that need to be setup for the Acknowledge state of the alarm. If you are setting up a Dual State alarm skip to the next step:
CallLts2.png
State – select Acknowledge.
Type – select Modify Discrete Output.
Action – select Turn On.
Output – select the output/light. We are using Red for this example.




Step 11.
Select the Add icon from the Actions toolbar.
CallLts1.png




Step 12.
Action Properties that need to be setup for the Clear state of the alarm.
CallLts3.png
State – select Clear.
Type – select Modify Discrete Output.
Action – select Turn Off.
Output – select the output/light. We are using Red for this example.




Step 13.
Repeat the steps for any other Alarms that you want to setup. The images below show the setup of 4 Alarms on a device where one alarm is Dual State and the others are Tri-State.

Step 14.
Select Save & Exit once you have setup all your Actions for each button.
