All paging stations employ gooseneck-microphones, 6 or respectively 8 function keys, and a covered alarm key. An additional key as well as a key-lock switch can be retrofitted. All paging stations are available with 10, 20, 30, or 50 selection keys. [. . . ] g. : second alarm-pushbutton for transmitting alarm signals into specific areas (selective alarm), or assigning the system ON / OFF function to the key-lock switch. Detailed information and installation instructions are provided in the PROMATRIX user manual. 5 DPC 4000 Revision 1. 1 23 PROMATRIX System 12 Microphone By pressing the TALK-button and after the BUSY-LED lights, the integrated gooseneck microphone allows making announcements in pre-selected areas or groups. The optimum distance from the microphone is approximately 8 to 12 inches. The microphone pre-amplifier embodies a limiter to control signal peaks and protect the system against overdrive. A second microphone with TALK-button can be connected to the extension socket (EXT). Assigning the function (area, group) of the external microphone is performed during the configuration via PC. 13 Display Depending on the system's actual operational status, the LCD display with 2 lines and 16 characters, each provides information on time, operation mode, user notes, setting up, fault messages including precise device / module specification, etc. Connections 1 LAN-socket This is the connection interface for the DPC 4000 Series paging stations to the PROMATRIX system. The 8-pole RJ-45 connector provides power supply, control interface RS-485 and audio connections. The microphone terminal has to be connected to a corresponding wall outlet using the supplied connection cord (3 m). 2 EXT-socket This socket is mostly used for connecting a DPC4350 paging station extension. Use the supplied network cable (0. 5 m) to connect the DPC4350 to the microphone terminal's EXT-socket. Additionally, when no paging station extension is connected, it is possible to utilize the EXT-socket to connect a second microphone with TALK-button or other external audio signal sources to the paging station. Detailed information is provided in chapter 6. 2. 13 Optionally Available Accessories. Key-Labeling Labeling the keys on the paging stations is done via label-strips, which can be inserted from the side. The label-strips for the 6 respectively 8 function keys are slit in from the right while the selection key strips ­ for 10, 20, 30, or 50 selection keys ­ are inserted from the left. After releasing the TALK-button, the defined selection stays memorized until the user makes any changes. Pressing the CANCEL-key de-selects the entire selection. Additionally and in case of a pre-gong signal has previously been programmed, the GONG-LED will light during the transmission of the pre-gong signal. Collective Call The announcement is launched into all areas of an installation. The procedure is similar to making a selective call. First, pressing the ALL-key selects all areas of the installation. Pressing the TALK-button activates the collective call. During the outgoing call all area and/or group LED's as well as the ALL-LED will light (also refer to "indications"). The TALK-button has to be kept pressed down until the end of an announcement. BUSY-LED indication and the pre-gong signal behave equivalent to what was said for the selective call. Direct Call Principally it is possible to assign a direct call to any selection key (area key, group key, ALL-key) during the PCconfiguration. [. . . ] It is also automatically canceled after approximately 15 seconds. In single-program configuration the music reproduction in all areas of the installation needs to be attenuated for the time of an announcement. In double-program configuration it is possible to transmit the background music program into rooms that are not part of an actual announcement selection. If every line incorporates its own LF-output and separate power amplifier, it is possible to freely mix announcements and background programs. Special Functions Generally, it is possible to assign a function to each selection key. [. . . ]
