For floors where a special text must be announced, custom voice announcement files need to be uploaded. To upload the voice
files, click the Audio Files tab.
The announcement file can be either:
A file code (for example 0002-0062.ogg)
A file name (for example schindler.ogg).
In the column Announcment, the name of the announcement file (.ogg on the PORT) needs to be typed without the extension .ogg. See
the examples in the graphic above.
 Use lower case letters, as the file name is also in lower case letters.
If the name of the announcement file is shorter or equal than 4 characters:
The PORT looks for a file with the required language code (for example 0002-, 0004-...) prefixed to this name and plays this file
as announcement.
If the currently active language on the PORT is English, the PORT looks for a file with the prefix 0002- (for example 0002-
exit.ogg).
If the currently active language on the PORT is German, the PORT looks for a file with the prefix 0004- (for example 0004-
exit.ogg).
If the name of the announcement file is longer than 4 characters:
The PORT looks for a file with exactly this name (for example schindler.ogg) and plays exactly this file as announcement,
regardless of the currently active language on the PORT.
Multiple options are available.

1. In the Audio Files tab, upload the required files.

2. Select the Destinations tab.
3. In the Announcement column, type the required name of the announcement file without
the extension .ogg.
4. If the floor does not need to be announced, select the Skip check box.

file.
3. Click Open.
The special data is imported to the special cards manager.
  During the process, all ID cards already included in the special
cards manager are deleted.
4. Click Store.

7.2. Rebooting of PORT

1. Press the UP/DOWN arrow.

2. Select yes for reboot.
3. Press OK.
4. Press Save.

The PORT is rebooted.

Rebooting the PORT is like powering off and on the device. A reboot does not reset to factory
settings.

7.3. Calibrating of PORT

The calibration mode can be entered in three different ways:

EJ_41905136_11 TM PTE 01 - PORT 1.2

Page 49 of 64 Copyright © 2002 - 2018 Inventio AG. All Rights Reserved
 1. Use the "Calibration Card".
2. Reset to factory default settings via "Reset Card".
3. Reset to factory default settings via the reset button.

If the PORT enters the calibration mode, press the Cross at different places.

Check the PORT is not bended, but installed flat on the wall or tight on the pedestal.

If the PORT calibration has failed and needs to be repeated, the calibration mode can only be re-entered with the "Calibration
Card".
Keep this in mind when you power up a riser of PORTs on a real installation. Just pressing on the screen does not re-start the
calibration mode.

If the PORT calibration has failed and the PORT switches to the "oneiD" screen, the calibration mode cannot be re-entered with
the "Calibration Card", the "Reset Card" or the configuration menu.
In this case, the PORT needs to be replaced and returned to the factory or your TMCC.

7.4. Performing of PORT Self-Test

8. FAQ
For up to date information, refer to FAQ.

8.1. Can we have the 10-key pad on a PORT as default screen?

8.1.1. Question
Our customer does not want the destination buttons, but requires the 10-key pad as default screen (same as on Z-line).

Can we have the 10-key pad on a PORT as default screen?

8.1.2. Answer

The easy answer is: No you cannot! 

The more complex answer is: Why would the customer require the 10-key pad?

First of all, it is not possible to have a check on the PORT setting to set "10-key pad as default". This is not available and never will be.

If we did the 10-key pad, this would be a step backwards. We want to make a step forward. 

 Many customer request this because they are not used to the destination buttons. The would like to return to the told style. 

1. When we introduced the Z-line terminal approximately 25 years ago, nobody was used to the 10-key pad. It just takes a
while, this is human nature, but, believe us, the users get used to the PORT really fast!
2. Explain to the customer why we have the destination buttons. Most customers will understand that destination buttons are
easier to use and more flexible, especially when you have the "Touchless Function" with automatic scrolling. This, of
course, does not work on a 10-key pad screen.

On some buildings, no identification is needed, open access to everywhere. This leads to too many floors on the Destination Button Page and the
users have to scroll.

The solution depends on the Building and cannot be generalized. We have to check your installation and see how we can improve this.

Option 1
 You can have a custom Theme where you always have the e.g. Lobby Button on the main screen, so on every Floor this button will
be shown.

Check if the customer wants the 10-keypad because the Lobby or Parking Floor is too far down
We can do a custom theme with a fix-button on the Destination Button frame. 

Contact us via PTTicket or via Mail to see which buttons we can add.

Option 2
You can have a custom Theme with bigger scroll buttons or multiple rows of buttons

Maybe the scroll-buttons are too small? We can make them bigger, maybe even name them differently (UP or 22..31).
We can create you a theme with two rows of Buttons, then more Floors are shown. Maybe even three rows.
Just keep in mind that, if you have lables on the Floors they may not be shown anymore 

Contact us via PTTicket or via Mail to see what is needed.

Another Option would be to use a PORT 1.4 or 4.4 which has a bigger screen. Those devices, with Custom Theme, are also capable for

EJ_41905136_11 TM PTE 01 - PORT 1.2

Page 53 of 64 Copyright © 2002 - 2018 Inventio AG. All Rights Reserved
multi-language input, like on the Start Page you have a language-chooser.

You see, we have many options, just try to consider those. Don't tell your customer "Yes, 10-Keypad" but ask him what he really needs, what he
really wants to achieve. This is what makes him happy at the end. Feel free to contact us to discuss your solution.

8.2. What is the maximum number of characters per row on a standard PORT theme?

8.2.1. Question
What is the maximum number of characters per row on a standard PORT theme?

8.2.2. Answer
As the width of characters is different, the maximum number of characters depends on the type of characters you use.

Example

You can only fit approximately 7 characters "m" in one row.

You can fit up to 26 characters "i" in one row.

Why not try yourself? Just enter the desired floor name in the PORT editor and see if it fits.
