9.5.3 Control From A Remote Pushbutton
If, on pressing the hurry request button, the confirm indication does not illuminate then
this indicates that the request has been rejected due to either:
- The Prevent Timer being active.
- The Delay Timer for a higher priority hurry call being active.
- Hurry Call mode being disabled.
- Any Special Conditioning which prevents the input of the Hurry Call.
e.g. Prevent Hurry Call 1 input whilst prevent timer for Hurry Call 0 is active.
The fact that the HURRY ACTIVE indicator is illuminated following the request only
indicates that the hurry request has been accepted and latched into the controller. The
servicing of the request may be delayed because a higher priority mode is active or a
higher priority hurry call is requested.
In the case where UTC mode is a higher priority than the Hurry Call mode then, on
receipt of a valid hurry call request, the confirm indication will normally be transmitted
to the central office for actioning (either by relinquishing UTC mode or by introducing
a special hurry call plan in UTC mode).
9.5.4 Control From A Queue Detector
Normally, the signal for the queue detector is processed by a call/cancel facility. While
the output of the call/cancel is active it may be required to force and hold the hurry call
stage indefinitely. To achieve this, the prevent period is set to zero and the hold period
is set at some small value, say five seconds. When the hold period expires, the hurry
call stage is immediately requested.
When the hurry call request from the call/cancel facility goes inactive, this is taken as a
cancel request and the hurry call stage is terminated. (This requires special
conditioning.)
The hurry call may be interrupted by a higher priority mode and on terminating this
mode the hurry call is serviced again only if it is still requested.
9.5.5 Timings Range
The range of timings for the Delay, Hold and Prevent periods is 0 to 255 seconds in 1
second steps.
