Table of Contents

The Settings tab contains the general settings of Cruise Alarming.

Service URLs

At the top of this tab are three predefined URLs:

Call manager phone service URL

The first URL is used to set Cruise Alarming as a phone service on the call manager. This service provides the possibility to list the alarm history directly on phones which are subscribed to the service. Paste this URL to the call manager’s phone service definition.

REST services

The second URL is the base URL for the REST API provided by Cruise Alarming.

The URL contains two placeholders which must be replaced when calling the REST API:

  • <group>: The ID or name of the group to which the alarm message are sent to (see chapter Alarm groups).
  • <message>: The content of the alarm message.

 

“Activate alarm” phone service

The third URL is used on IP phones to set up services which can activate predefined alarms (e.g., engineer call). To use such a this service, two parameters :

  • groupID: The ID/group number of an alarm group (see chapter Alarm groups).
  • message: The text to display of alarm which will be shown on the alarm group phones when alarm is activated.

Paste this URL to the call manager’s phone service definition.
