DUCKER)
The PAGE key is a representation of the hardware PAGE key from the MPAGE16 console, just for status
information given by the colour of the light, since it does not allow you to enable or disable any function of
the PAGER module. The PAGE key of this section is lit while you hold down the PAGE key from the
MPAGE16 console to indicate that the console is entering the message sending mode:
Lit in orange: when you start sending a message (pressing and holding the PAGE key), it
indicates that the chime melody is played (as determined with EclerNet Manager for the control
programming), then turns green at the end of the chime. Thus, the speaker knows when the
chime ends and can start its speech without overlapping the chime broadcasting
Lit

green:
paging function activated with voice message broadcasting to selected destination
zones (duration of the voice message)
Knobs on the lower part of the section are used to adjust the way the PAGER function performs:
CHIME VOL: playback volume of the chime melody (-12 to 0 dB). This melody and the input
channel associated with the PAGER (signal of the microphone connected to a MIMO88 input)
are mixed, the effective volume being affected by the general volume of the input channel
(see section: 7.5.6. LEVEL). The level meter of this input channel also reflects the playback of
the chime melody
DEPTH: attenuation applied on the rest of the signals sent to the destination zone(s) during
the time the PAGER function is active (0 to 80 dB)
ATTACK: attack time. Determines the time elapsed since the activation of the PAGE key until
signal attenuation starts. The range covers from 5 ms to 2 s
RELEASE: determines the time elapsed until attenuation stops once you release the PAGE
key. In this case, the range covers from 50 ms to 3 s.
Note: For outputs an input should send messages to through a pager module, the crossing
points of the matrix between this input and all possible outputs should be in MUTE state. The
PAGE action momentarily removes the MUTE for the selected input in the pager and activates
the MUTE or attenuation for all other inputs. The distribution volume to each of the outputs is
independently set by the volume of the crossing point. When outputs an input should send
messages to through a pager module have an unmuted matrix intersection between this input
and all possible outputs, input signal will be broadcast without needing to activate PAGE from
the console or the user screen.
