- The status of calls for each call group is displayed in real-time on a web browser.
- The call groups are set for each channel from 1 to 10 on the transmitter AN426TII and receiver WCL-426R (a maximum of 10 groups). A maximum of 800 AN426TII units and a maximum of 10 WCL-426R units can belong to one call group.
- Since multiple WCL-426R units can belong to one call group, the status of calls from AN426TII units scattered in distant areas can be displayed on one screen by installing AN426TII and WCL-426R units within the communication distance (approximately 120 m ( 132 yd ) indoors).
- For each call group, a maximum of 10 calls can be displayed in the order in which they were called. The display method (lighting / blinking) for the calls can also be selected. If there are 11 or more calls, "the number of hidden calls" will be displayed at the 10th call.
- The call will be notified with a "color (orange / red / green)" display and a "melody" based on the content of the call.
- As for the information of the calling source AN426TII, the "transmitter settings (channel number / set number / unit number / ID number)" and the "transmitter name registered in WCL plus" are displayed (you can switch between which one is displayed larger).
