Like all QSys system components, functionality of the Page Stations is defined and configured by the system designer using QSys Designer. [. . . ] The rear panel of the Page Station offers a variety of auxiliary audio I/O interfaces and GPIO for expanding the capability of the page station. The auxiliary audio inputs can accommodate accessories such as a secondary microphone or other audio source. This featureset permits a single page station (with an optional second microphone) to serve, for example both the kiosk and the jetway entrance of an airport PS-1600H PS-800H PS-400H PS-1600G PS-800G PS-400G boarding area. The page stations include an auxiliary output that can drive an amplifier or powered loudspeaker even if the page station looses connection to the QSys core. The GPIO interface can be configured to use external events to affect paging operation or to affect external control systems. The Page Station is designed with a flexible mounting system. The rear of the page station fits into a standard triplegang U. S. electrical outlet box or it may be mounted directly to a rough cut opening in a wall or podium when an electrical "back box" solution is not required. The electrical box provides system designers with the option of prewiring the Page Station cabling prior to mounting the product. Please visit the QSC website for a dimensioned template before beginning installation. Q-Sys Public Address Functionality QSys Designer (version 2. 0 and higher) includes the Public Address Router, a suite of functions to support public address applications. Most of these functions may be deployed whether or not the QSys system incorporates QSC page stations. Alternative interfaces such as touch screen controllers may also be used in conjunction with analog microphones. All of these functions are executed by the QSys core with no additional hardware "boxes" required. Local backup paging (requires local amplification & loudspeaker) permits the station to function locally even if the core and network become unavailable. Virtual Page Station supports the design of custom graphic or physical page station interfaces. It is used in conjunction with a microphone connected to an analog input and can support any number of preset page events or allow the user to create adhoc destination Zone Groups, etc. [. . . ] Q-Sys, Q-LAN, Q-Sys Core Processor, Q-Sys Core 1000, Q-Sys Core 3000, Q-Sys Core 4000, Q-Sys I/O Frame, Q-Sys PS-1600H, Q-Sys Page Station and Q-Sys Designer are trademarks of QSC Audio Products, LLC.
