Setup > Audio > Decoder Audio web page: middle section
To operate, choose a decoder channel and select an output port that has speakers (or the Front Panel
Speaker). DASDECs with EAS NET licensed provide two streaming audio output ports for remote input
audio monitoring. This is especially useful for checking the decoder input when the DASDEC is monitored in
an office that is apart from the equipment room. Your browser host computer will need a streaming audio
player that can support either OGG/Vorbis audio format or MP3.
The selections occur immediately and will cause a page refresh. When audio monitoring is enabled, a bright
Red
**ON**
label will be displayed to the left side of the interfaces. To disable audio monitoring, select
the None decoder option and/or the None output option.
Temporarily listening to the decoder input is a VERY IMPORTANT part of configuring the
DASDEC for EAS reception. Make sure that these tools or the Radio monitoring button options
are used after radio tuning in order to verify audible reception.
See Chapter 4.6.4 Radio Tuners for a
description of the Radio monitoring buttons.
Front Panel Speaker Audible Decode checkbox is useful to hear when alerts are being decoded. When
enabled, audio for an incoming, decoding alert, is played on the front speaker. This toggle defaults to
Disabled.
3. Alert Forwarding Audio Configuration
Audio Output Sample Rate
This selector controls the sample rate of audio played from the DASDEC.
NOTE: This same control is presented under Setup > Encoder Audio > Alert
Encoder Audio Configuration and under Setup > Audio Output Levels/Tests. The
sample rate applies to audio for both alert Forwarding and Origination.
NOTE 2: AES Audio output requires 32000 or more samples per second.
NOTE: DO NOT LEAVE THE MONITOR ON DURING NORMAL OPERATION!
