The External Source Distribution function shall allow distribution of an external audio source to up
to nineteen (19) zones. The function shall be activated by providing a continuous make contact
closure to one of four trigger inputs. Up to 19 paging zones can be assigned to each one of a total
of four trigger inputs in system programming. Each zone shall include up to 1,024 Sub-stations
and up to 16 selective external public address equipment outputs. During the activation input, the
external source shall be distributed to the pre-programmed zones. The function shall be
terminated when the activation input is broken. During operation, any other input will not accept a
make contact closure. Sub-stations designated as "Emergency" priority shall not be accessed by
the External Source Distribution function.

allowing the system's Master Stations and Telephone Master Stations to place or receive outside
telephone line telephone calls.
3.20.1 OUTGOING TELEPHONE CALLS

tone, dialing the station number shall connect the calling station to the called party. If the calling
party does not dial a station number within 10 seconds after the dial tone is transmitted, the

seconds or more after the calling party dials the station number, the call shall be canceled. Calls
shall be automatically forwarded if the station called from the outside telephone line is currently in
