Æ MIC Routing

The Microphone Routing button function is for zone selection, i.e. when pressed it selects a specified output or group of outputs to which the microphone audio is to be routed when the PTT button is subsequently pressed.

See button operation in Sections “ 2.2.1 Live Announcements ” (page 9 ), and “ 2.2.3 Playing Digital Voice

Messages (Play DVA Buttons) ” (page 14 ).

If a ‘listen-in’ button has been configured, and it is activated while pressing a zone selection button, then the selected output or group of outputs will be routed to the Router’s Aux Output.

See button operation in Section “ 2.2.4.2 Selective Listen-In Mode ” (page 18 ).

Configure a button for ‘MIC Routing’, and then select the output or group of outputs to which audio

(microphone) is to be routed when the Zone Select button is pressed.

Consult the system design documentation for which outputs are used for which audio zones. Note that to simplify this process the Router may have had the output names changed to zone names in the

Configuration Æ System Æ Router Æ Outputs menu.

Æ DVA Routing

The ‘DVA Routing’ button function enables simple control of a single broadcast route, or complex broadcasts to be set up. For instance when a button is pressed a route can be made that connects any desired combination of audio inputs to any combination of outputs. Audio inputs are typically DVAs, however other types of inputs such as microphone and background music can also be routed.

An example of this is a button programmed to cause an EVACUATE message to be broadcast in one zone, and simultaneously cause an ALERT message to be broadcast to adjacent zones, while all remaining zones are unaffected.

Another example would be a set of ‘DVA Routing’ buttons which controls background music broadcast to selected zones in the system.

!

DVA Routing is only available on microphones connected to VAR4/VAR12/VAR20’s Mic/Line inputs 1 or 2.

See button operation in Section “ 2.2.2 Routing Digital Voice Messages (DVA Routing Buttons) ” (page 12 ).

Configure a button for ‘DVA Routing’, and then configure the following parameters.
