Each time one subscriber establishes a voice connection to a parallel group, all members of the group can hear the message simultaneously (point-to-multipoint). As soon as one member of the group answers, only the calling subscriber can hear this message (point-to-point). All other members of the parallel group cannot listen during this time and are indicated as busy, which means that they cannot establish or receive other calls.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Communication Procedure<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The following illustration shows the communication procedure in general.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2791\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2791\" style=\"width: 1240px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2791 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1240\" height=\"920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step1.png 1240w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step1-300x223.png 300w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step1-768x570.png 768w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step1-1024x760.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1240px) 100vw, 1240px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2791\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Parallel Group Step1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2792\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2792\" style=\"width: 1240px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2792 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1240\" height=\"820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step2.png 1240w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step2-300x198.png 300w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step2-768x508.png 768w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step2-1024x677.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1240px) 100vw, 1240px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2792\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Parallel Group Step 2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2793\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2793\" style=\"width: 1240px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2793 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1240\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step3.png 1240w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step3-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step3-768x412.png 768w, https:\/\/www.industronic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Parallelgruppe_V3_EN_Step3-1024x550.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1240px) 100vw, 1240px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2793\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Parallel Group Step 3<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Application Example<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A typical application example for a parallel group is that you can install two intercom stations at two different places in a plant which are favorable for the operator, e.g. at the beginning and at the end of a long rolling mill train.
