Therefore, you have to detach the correspondent side panel (2 screws) and insert the labeled strip into the gap between the front panel and the front panel foil.
DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS 5.2.6 Operation This chapter explains all functions that are used during general operation. Selective Call The user can launch calls or announcements into freely selectable areas or groups. Pressing a single or several selection keys defines areas or groups where a call is launched into – corresponding LED’s will light. By pressing the key of an already pre-selected line once again deactivates that line and the corresponding LED goes out.
DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS Text Message A text message recorded via the optional message module or using an external recording/playback device can be transmitted into any selectable area or group of the entire installation. First, the desired areas / groups have to be selected; either by use of the selection keys or via the ALL key. Pressing the TEXT key starts the reproduction of a prerecorded message that had been assigned during configuration.
DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS System ON / OFF The ON key switches a PROANNOUNCE system ON or OFF. Mostly, it is not intended that any paging station be provided with the possibility to do so. Thus, this function can be programmed via PC-configuration. When the system is in stand-by mode, the ON LED is off. Pressing the ON key turns the PROANNOUNCE system’s power on which can take up to 10 seconds, while the ON LED is blinking.
DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS 5.2.7 Paging Console Configuration In Setup Mode Configuring paging consoles is preferably performed on the central unit via computer and using the PROANNOUNCE Designer software. This represents the most convenient way without any limitation, while a paging terminal itself offers only limited programming ability. Several key functions differ between setup-mode and operation mode. Alternate functions are marked on the right top corner of the individual key area.
DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS 2 Password (does not apply to paging consoles without selection keys) 3 or 4-digit passwords provide protection for paging consoles against unauthorized operation. Password protection can be established in two levels. The first level is the ‘normal’ user-level. In case this level is password-protected, the paging station cannot be operated except for launching an alarm. The second level is the setup-level.
DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS 5.2.8 Indications The following table provides you with an overview of the most important LED-indications.
DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS 5.2.9 Priorities The PROANNOUNCE system allows setting 10 priority levels (highest priority = 10, lowest priority = 1) that include announcements, as well as alarm and gong signals, and vocal message reproduction. A higher prioritized event principally interrupts any other event with a lower priority setting. For events with equal priority the earlier launched signal is continued; has priority over the latter.

APPENDIX 6. Appendix 6.1 PROANNOUNCE Hardware Configuration 6.1.1 DCS 400 When configuring and initially operating the DCS 400 system, please proceed as follows: 1. Cabling ➨ Use the supplied flat-wire cable for connecting the relay modules DCS 408, DCS 409 in the desired order to the control module DCS 401. Mixed installation of relay modules is possible; numbering the relays is type-specific and has to be performed according to their sequence. example: Sequence 1 Module DCS 408 Line relay No.
APPENDIX 2. Voltage Supply ➨ Insert bridges serve to select the voltage supply connector of different modules. Please refer to the corresponding description of individual modules or to their block diagrams. CAUTION: The maximum current handling capacity of RJ-45 connections and flat-wire cables has to be observed under all circumstances! 3. DCS 401 Addresses ➨ Using the Dip switch S1, the addresses of all connected control modules DCS 401 have to be set to different numbers (addresses 0 - 7).
APPENDIX 6.2 DMM 4650 Interconnection Interconnecting the DMM 4650 is established through control inputs and outputs on the DPM 4000 or on the DCS 400 monitoring system (DCS 408, DCS 409, DCS 412). Every single sequence needs a control output for the start / stop command and a control input for the transmission of the return signal. The control output starts the DMM 4650 sequence with a positive slope and stops it with a negative slope.
