DAB1 DISTRIBUTED AUDIO SYSTEM
Getting System Configuration Information
The Sonance Control Manager can generate a System Configuration Report containing all of the system
information and all of the programming information for each device in the system. This report can be a great help when
confirming that a system has been properly
programmed before turning it over to a client, or when
troubleshooting a system that may not be working as
expected.
Generating a System Configuration Report
1. Confirm that the Sonance Control Manager program has
been uploaded with the latest configuration information
from all system devices by uploading the configuration
information from each DAB1 to the computer:
a) Connect the computer to the DAB1’s USB port.
b) Launch the Sonance Control Manager software.
c) Open the C
OMMUNICATIONS menu and select R ECEIVE
F ROM D EVICE . The programming from the connected
DAB1 will be uploaded to the Sonance Control
Manager.
2. Once the Sonance Control Manager has been updated, open
the F ILE menu and select S YSTEM C ONFIGURATION R EPORT . The
S YSTEM C ONFIGURATION R EPORT window ( Figure 75) will open.
The System Configuration Report will contain the installer
and client Job Information for the system, a listing of all
devices in the system and the configuration of each device
in the system. The device configuration information
includes:
• The device’s General Settings
• Zone Settings for each zone
• Source Settings for each source
• All of the macros for the P
RESS , D OUBLE -P RESS and P RESS -A ND -H OLD levels for each zone.
The macro descriptions include each command contained in the macro, in sequential order. This enables the programmer
to review each macro step-by-step when troubleshooting the system.
The System Configuration Report window’s C OPY and P RINT buttons let you generate a hard-copy printout of the entire
report. The file can be opened and read in Notepad or WordPad, and can be e-mailed for review at remote locations.
