Repeat the above process for each MX392 microphone that you want to connect to the Vortex Device.

LOGIC OUTPUT

Go to the Logic Output page of Conference Composer. If the LED IN wire is connected to Logic Output pin 1, then you need to assign Pin 1 by left-clicking the desired pin in the DB-25 graphic. The pin will turn color from gray to pink. Next, right-click on the pin and reverse the polarity. A horizontal bar should appear under the pin number in the DB-25 graphic and under the pin number under the Pin column:

Reversing the polarity is critical to proper operation. When S3 is in the ON position, the MX392 wants to see an Active Low signal (0V DC) from the Vortex Device in order to illuminate the LED. By default, the EF Device has been designed to assume that an Active High signal (+5V DC) is required to drive an LED. The MX392 uses the active low signal to use part of the phantom power voltage to illuminate the LED. If you do not reverse the polarity, the LED will light up exactly the opposite way you will have intended.

Next, right click in the ACTIVATED COMMAND column for Logic Input 1 and select INSERT, INPUT, 1, MUTE, OFF. Now, whenever the microphone is unmuted (Mute = False), the LED will illuminate on the MX392.

To accomplish this, we will use the BROADA command to send MUTEI commands from one unit to the other unit. The BROADA command broadcasts any command that is after the colon. For example, if a Macro in the Vortex EF2241 has this command Page LOGIC INPUT Page Page LOGIC OUTPUT Make sure the LED works as designed. If you press the membrane switch, you should see the LED above the pins illuminate in Conference Composer as well as on every MX392. Since the switch is a membrane switch, the LED will stay lit until the switch is pushed and held down Polycom Installed Voice Business Group Contact Information TECHNICAL SUPPORT
