DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS

5TEXT key (￿) and LED

Pressing the TEXT key starts a prerecorded message (optional voice reproduction), which is transmitted into pre-selected areas or groups. The TEXT LED lights or blinks during the transmission of a prerecorded message. The desired text message is selected during the configuration procedure. Pressing the STOP key cancels the reproduction of a text message.

While in setup-mode, pressing the TEXT key decreases the selected parameter value (parameter entry).

6TALK key and BUSY-LED

This key activates a message for pre-selected areas or groups. The BUSY LED lights during transmission. The TALK key has to be pressed until the end of a message. The BUSY LED blinks when one or several areas are busy or when an event with higher priority setting interrupts the output message (see paragraph indications). In the latter, it is necessary to repeat the message.

7ON key (<) and LED

This key turns the system’s power on or off. Turning the power on can take several seconds. The ON LED blinks while the system boots. The ON LED lights steadily when the system is operational. To prevent inadvertent erroneous operation pressing the key for at least 1 second is necessary when turning the power off. It is also possible to prohibit the operation of the ON key during the configuration procedure.

In setup-mode this key is used to select the previous parameter (parameter selection).

8STOP key (￿)

Pressing the STOP key cancels an output alarm signal or text message. Terminating an alarm signal is also possible by subsequently pressing the ALARM key. Only events that were triggered from a specific paging console can be stopped from the exact terminal with the exception of the directing station. This terminal allows canceling all signals.

While in setup-mode, this key increases the selected parameter value (parameter entry).

9PROGRAM key (>) and LED

Pressing the PROGRAM key selects the program assign mode. The selection keys are used in this mode to assign a program (background music) to the desired areas or groups. The PROGRAM LED lights while being in the program assign mode. In this case the selection LED’s indicate the areas / groups the program is being transmitted into.

Keeping this key pressed and simultaneously pressing the STOP key selects the setup-mode and the PROGRAM LED starts blinking. Now you can alter preferences or make other changes as described in the chapter 5.2.7 Paging Station Configuration In Setup Mode.

When in setup-mode, this key is used to select the following parameter (parameter selection).

10ALARM key and Indicator

Pressing the ALARM key starts an alarm signal that is transmitted into all areas. The alarm indicator lights when launching an alarm. Pressing the STOP key or subsequently pressing the ALARM key terminates the alarm signal. What kind of alarm signal is being transmitted is defined during the configuration procedure of the PROANNOUNCE system.

11Optional Key-Slots

These slots allow retrofitting an additional covered key and a key-locked switch. The front panel is already prepared for the installation of two 18 mm pushbuttons / switches. You only have to cut suitable holes into the front panel foil. Internal fittings and cables are also already prepared. The newly installed switches’ functions are assigned during the configuration procedure via PC; e.g.: second alarm-pushbutton for transmitting an alarm signal into specific areas (selective alarm), or assigning the system ON / OFF function to the key-locked switch.

Detailed information and installation instructions are provided in the chapter 5.2.13 Optionally Available Accessories.
