Front panel user interface
The Front panel user interface is one of four interfaces available to manage an
Executive Elite system. The others are the local web UI, the Cloud Server Web
UI, and the CLI (room control) interface and are described later in this
document.
The front panel contains four areas:
1. On/off switch
2. 4 / 8 LEDs (depending on the version of the Executive Elite base DSP
unit)
3. Graphics LCD display
4. 5 button navigation keypad.
The on / off switch powers the Executive Elite base and the connected remote
antenna receiver on and off. During operation, this switch should be in the
β€œ1”, or β€˜on’, position.
The LEDs on the front panel show the current microphone states. An LED that
is off indicates that there is either no microphone paired to this channel, or the
paired microphone is in the charger, out of reach, or switched off. A green
blinking LED indicates an active microphone that is unmuted. A red blinking
LED, showing a double blink, indicates an active microphone that is muted. A
rapidly red blinking LED with a single blink indicates the microphone is
upgrading. A constant red LED indicates a channel on which microphone
pairing is taking place at the moment.
The LCD screen together with the navigation keypad allows easy monitoring of
the Executive Elite system as well as managing some system settings without
additional equipment. Its home screens provide information on audio levels,
radio signal strength, and access to gain settings for the analog audio output.
The menu structure displays system information, and allows changes to some
system and audio settings. The front panel can also be used to pair and un-
pair microphones. It does not replace the local web UI interface or the cloud
based management interface to manage all options and functionality of an
Executive Elite system. The front panel interface will also not allow access to
password protected areas of the interface unless the system has first been set
up using the local web UI.
