Another useful application of the Audio Generator is its ability to play a pre-recorded announcement manually on demand or on a
schedule.
Example: A school playing a pre-recorded announcement informing the students and staff that the buses will be ten minutes late
due to weather conditions.
•First the principal records his/her announcement in an MP3 format.
•The file is saved as 4.mp3 (or any unused file name 1-8) on the USB flash drive for the Audio Generator.
•The MP3 file can then be documented or labeled for future use. The SiteSync IQ system controller's Remote
Connect interface is a good place to do this. For this example, the label “Buses 10 Minutes Late Announcement” is a
good description.
Now anytime the buses will be late due to the weather, the principal's office can manually trigger this announcement to play with
the SiteSync IQ system controller.
•The user would go to the SiteSync IQ Remote Connect interface.
•Under the Circuit Tab/Manual Activation Tab, they would enter the correct Circuit # (#4) and Signal Duration
(2 to 3 seconds).
•When the Wired (or Both) Signal Activation button is pressed, the announcement saved as 4.mp3 will play.
The students and staff will hear the announcement in the principal's voice even if he/she is not there at the time. “Attention! Due
to inclement weather, the buses are ten minutes behind schedule.”
