Re: [cisco-voip] Panic Button Solution?

2017-01-30 Thread Nick Britt
Hi Lisa,



There is a company based in India that I have used in the past that I
believe have a product that meets your requirements.



http://www.parsec-tech.com/ProjectDocs/MARS%20Panic%20Button.pdf



I haven’t used this specific product before but used another (silent
monitoring) and was very impressed with the product and service.



Cheers



Nick

Re: [cisco-voip] Panic Button Solution?

2017-01-30 Thread Ryan Huff
While this still in allows for 2-way communication; an interim solution until 
the Informacast server is available again (that is your best option) is to have 
the far end phone auto answer on speaker and do a local side route pattern with 
a unique steering digit.

Outside of that and assuming you have network devices that could do it, you 
could on purpose, break the far end RTP network path; this would take some 
engineering to isolate it to one phone still allow the call setup (SIP) (would 
have to disable VAD / Silence suppression in CCM too which has its own 
implications) and honestly, would it be worth the investment in time and effort?

How long until the upgrade on InformaCast Vs. how bad does it need done in 
totality now, or can you implement a 'sort of complete' solution like just 
having the far-end auto answer?

How about Intercom? From what I remember (and read below) it's a feature which 
automatically connects the caller to the recipient in whisper mode so that the 
called party hears everything but can't actually talk back until they initiate 
so. No ringing, auto-answer. I'm not sure if there is a one-to-one or 
one-to-many relationship and how that would work at the end unit. But that 
being said, that would be a problem with any solution. Multiple locations 
sending panic calls to one destination (campus police).

Call Manager 10.5.2.12901-1



I have a request from a department here at The University of Scranton to use a 
button on their phone as a panic button that would do the following:

1.   Automatically dial our Police department without a ring tone

2.   Provide one way communication to University Police so they can listen 
to the conversation to get an idea of the issue and then dispatch an officer

It is important to have silence on the phone connection when the button is 
pressed

I looked into PLAR but I don’t think it can be configured exactly this way.  We 
have a SingleWire server but it is in the process of being upgraded. So, before 
we install a physical panic button without a voice feature, we wondered if 
there were any other creative solutions.

ok. was not aware of the 1:1 requirements. might still work if the demand is 
low.


how would the other solutions satisfy your concerns though? if they want 
silence and no ringing? i'm just not seeing it.

Issue with intercom is it is strictly a 1:1 relationship, and would require a 
seemingly infinite number of sidecars on the campus police, as it requires the 
intercom button on both devices., at least in my experience. It also doesn’t 
establish a conversation, so you have no idea if anyone is actually listening

2017-01-30 Thread Terry Oakley
Once you are upgraded I would look at the Singlewire software (InformaCast).   
I believe the Panic button feature will work exactly as you require if you have 
the Advanced InformaCast installed.   I haven’t created the open mic situation 
but we certainly have been able to use the Panic button in a silent mode.
Cannot see why you can’t make the phone mic open (if the phone model has a mic) 
so that the security side can listen to the active situation.   Will look at 
that and see what I can find out.

I looked into PLAR but I don’t think it can be configured exactly this way.  We 
have a SingleWire server but it is in the process of being upgraded. So, before 
we install a physical panic button without a voice feature, we wondered if 
there were any other creative solutions.

Thank you in advance -
