Posted September 20, 20222 yr We just installed a DS2 attached to a gate system. We setup a UI button in the intercom to open the gate. However the touchpads and the DS2 dont provide any feedback to the person by the gate or the user opening the gate that the gate has been released.
September 20, 20222 yr need to have a contact sensor to register if the gate is open. You kinda do it with only relays but contacts is the most realible.
September 21, 20222 yr Author Sorry, I wasn't clear. What id like to happen, when I press the UI button on the touch screen id like a sound to play on the touchscreen, so the user knows it was pressed. On the DS2 I'd like it to make some kind of sound to let the person at the gate know the gate is going to open.
September 21, 20222 yr You can fire off an announcement on the touchscreen but I don't believe you can on the DS2.
September 22, 20222 yr Author For the DS2 Side. If you login to the Web Interface under Hardware > Audio you can set the volume of the door opening. Then under Services > User Sounds You can set the sound.

September 23, 20222 yr Author Thank you. But how will the announcement know which Touchscreen to play on? We only want it to play on the touchscreen that pressed the button

September 23, 20222 yr Author How can you choose it.. the programming Device Event is on the DS2 UI button release, how do you specify the Action to occur on the Touchscreen that triggered the Device Event
September 23, 20222 yr can use conditionals or have seperate announcements. it just depends on how you want everything to work.
September 27, 20222 yr If you can make the DS2 make a noise when the gate is released won't the person who pressed the button on the touchscreen hear that noise through the call? then they would know the gate had been released
