—Panic dial Lets you choose a dialing setup to be activated when pin 7 of the par- allel remote control is pulled to ground. Pin 7 must be held to ground until you want to drop the call.

HOT TIP!

ItÕs not just for panics. You can use the Panic Dial feature for automatic backup of a satellite or alternative ISDN system by connecting it to that systemÕs Lock output. Or connect it to a timer for automatic activation at repeating unsuper- vised events (such as daily press conferences or meetings), or to an SPST switch for one-touch access to the studio.

ADJUSTING A BLANK SCREEN

If someone has left the Contrast or Backlight at a position where the screen is invisible, youÕll have a hard time finding these menu items to reset them.

To reset contrast from any screen, press DIAL and hold that button in while you turn EDIT.

To reset backlighting from any screen, press DROP and hold it in while you turn EDIT.

—Click Volume Adjusts the volume of all of ZephyrExpress’ button and menu re- sponse sounds. Can be set to 0 for quiet operation.

—POTS volume Adjusts the volume of the internal speaker when ZephyrExpress is connected to an analog call. Can be used as an alert for incoming calls1, or set to 0 for quiet operation.

—Menu timeout Sets the length of inactivity before ZephyrExpress reverts to the next higher-level menu. The timer starts again at the higher menu, and will keep reverting until it reaches the Status screen.

1You might need the alert because ZephyrExpress picks up on the first ring... so there won’t be a long ringing sound.
