A large campus with 10,000 users can have 10-12 false positives a
day...tough balance though..but at least with CER or RedSky or billing
software alert you know what entension dialed it, can get alerts and
send your onsite medical staff...

I would rather have false 911 calls then introduce a delay in the
routing of an emergency call....

Just change your access code to 8.

You safest bet is to utilizing an inter-digit (t.302 delay).

 

911 & 911?, so when you dial 911 it will wait to see if you are going to
enter another digit. Also make sure urgent priority is not checked. That
can help reduce accidental 911 calls.  I'd rather have false 911 calls
then have my butt on the line for unity failing, etc.

I think you hit the nail on the head on two points:

*	you have to be aware of the 911 legislation in your area
*	how many "points of failure" are you adding

The list brings of many options and examples, you have to be aware of
the ramifications of these examples and see if they fit.

I for one, would not want to introduce anything outside of the native
phone system into 911 call handling. But that's just me....

Just out of curiosity, but what are the legal ramifications of this?

You are technically interfering with the routing of an emergency
services request and could run into some pretty serious legal jeopardy
(at minimum serious civil liability if Unity goes down....)

In IL the installer of the phone system is legally responsible for the
routing of 911 calls (both the 911 and the X.911 pattern (X being the
access code)....

We route to Unity first playing a message that says "you have dialed
911, if this is an emergency stay on the line, otherwise hang up".
There are blogs out there how to do it, I can find it for you if you
want to go this route.  9911 goes out normal.

All,

 

Lately we've been seeing more and more 911 calls go out of our building
by "accident."  None of our route patterns have changed lately.  I'm not
sure why this could be happening.  A couple of questions.

 

1. Is there a good way to prevent this from happening? Is anyone else
doing anything special to prevent this?

2. I'm trying to find a way to report on the 911 calls and am unable to
find a report that will accommodate my needs.  Does anyone know of
reports to run for this?

 

Thanks,

Tim
