(*)
Note: this fixed orange status also occurs during unit firmware updates made from
EclerNet Manager application
Green LED for ALL and CLEAR keys:
x
Lit in green: as long as keys are pressed
Green LED for programmable function keys F1 and F2:
x
Off: the function assigned to the key is OFF (deactivated)
x
Lit in green: the function assigned to the key is ON (activated)
x
Green, momentary flashing: function not available (not assigned to the key by
EclerNet Manager application)
Note: both LEDs flash during the unit firmware updating process initiated from EclerNet
Manager application
Additionally, there is a "network" green LED providing additional technical information and
visible only from the bottom part of the console:
x
Off: indicates no detection of digital bus connection
x
Slow flashing: indicates that the console is trying to synchronize itself with MIMO88
unit (e.g. after cable disconnection and reconnection)
x
Fast flashing: the console is synchronized with MIMO88 unit, but is disabled (non-
operational) for two possible reasons:
o
it was temporarily disabled by EclerNet Manager application (e.g. there is
a usage scenario in which messages can’t be sent from the console)
o
MPAGE16 - MIMO88 firmware or communication protocol version
mismatch
x
On: the console is synchronized with the MIMO88 and operational
4.4. Paging and priority
One of two possible priority levels can be set from EclerNet Manager application for each
console connected to a MIMO88.
In a two-console configuration, each one with different priority, higher priority console (level
1) may interrupt the lower priority (level 2) console if some destination zones overlap during paging
(i.e. while zones are busy). This interruption may be total or partial in terms of length of message,
and affects only overlapping zones.
Selecting a zone (pressing keys 1 to 16) does not imply it is busy, it is necessary to select
it then to press PAGE key to hold it. Thus, while holding down the PAGE key on the highest priority
console and paging to the destination zones hold by this console, the following occurs in the lower
priority console:
x
LEDs for the zones paged by the higher priority console and that are not selected in
the lower priority console light in red. Releasing the PAGE key on the higher priority
console turns off these red LEDs.
x
LEDs for the zones paged by the higher priority console and that are also selected
in the lower priority console (overlapping zones between the two consoles) light in
orange. These LEDs turn green when releasing the PAGE key on the higher priority
console
x
If the non priority console is paging (or initiating paging when the priority one pages
itself), paging will be interrupted in all zones the priority console is paging to
(overlapping zones), and will continue in other ones (non-overlapping). The LED of
the zones in which paging will be interrupted (or not done at all) is flashing in orange.
At the end of the priority paging, these zones LEDs still flash in orange, alerting the
user that the message has not been totally paged to this particular zone (regardless
