Preamble

Thank you for choosing the DYNACORD PROANNOUNCE System. With the PROANNOUNCE System you purchased a high-quality product which is going to satisfy your highest demands. This extraordinarily flexible and versatile system allows the configuration of either small or complex installations as well. Most functions are realized through software modules, which - when compared to conventional PA-systems – not only reduces the amount of cabling but also the costs. Next to extensive audio signal generating and distribution functions, the PROANNOUNCE system provides ample control functions. On one hand, these functions offer the possibility to register and rate external events, as well as to control different external components, on the other hand. Boolean operations and relations to the internal state of the system can be programmed as well.

To be able to take advantage of all possibilities that are offered by the PROANNOUNCE system, we would like to ask you to read this handbook carefully. For getting a quick overview about the PROANNOUNCE system's components and functions, we recommend consulting the chapter System Description.
