ML - 800
The Room Combining System supports the integration of a new or existing paging system. A
Page Audio input, and Normal/Priority mode page selects are provided for interface to the
system.
The actual paging operation of a particular system will depend upon how paging was imple-
mented by the audio system design engineer/installing contractor.
The system supports two primary paging modes; Normal Paging and Priority Paging. During
a Priority mode page, the room audio will be muted and the page audio will be uncondition-
ally switched into the rooms, regardless of room wallplate settings. The page audio level is
controlled only by the pre-configured amplifier gain settings, and page input level adjust con-
trol on the ML-800RACK. Any selected audio ( Mics and/or Music playing in the selected
rooms) will be disabled for the duration of the page.
Caution should be used when select-
ing Priority mode paging to guard against interrupting any meetings in progress.
Normal mode page, Normal paging will occur during music operation, but will be automati-
cally disabled if Mic audio is enabled in the selected room. During a Normal page, page audio
will be mixed with any selected audio in the room ( Music only, based on factory settings). The
page audio level is controlled only by the pre-configured amplifier gain settings, and page
input level adjust control on the ML-800RACK. As with the Priority mode paging, page volume
level does not depend upon wallplate volume settings.
Users are encouraged to consult with their installing contractor to configure the Room
Combining System paging options so as to optimize the operation of a particular
installation.
To initiate paging, select the desired paging mode (priority or normal) and speak into the
microphone. To end paging, release the page mode push button.
