Listen-in
: Pressing the button activates the listen-in function from the zone defined in
the
Zones
property (Optional Settings). Note that the Listen-in button type on the VIPA
device is for reference only.
This equates to type “listen-in” in the microphone XML configuration. The listen-in
function must be configured in the microphone’s XML configuration file; see Section
“3 MPS Microphone Configuration” (page 11) for further details.
−
Fault Status
: Pressing the button has no effect, but the red LED indicator monitors
faults on a VIPA device. The red LED on the button is turned on if the VIPA device has
any active faults.
The button can be configured to monitor faults only on the local VIPA device to which it
is attached or on a remote VIPA device.
•
Local VIPA device: Leave the
Target
(Optional Settings) blank.
•
Remote VIPA device: Enter in a text string in the form "rtr_jcop@<hostname>/Jcop"
in the
Target
(Optional Settings) property where <hostname> is the host name of
the remote VIPA device, as configured in the Required Settings category of the
VIPA device node.
The Fault Status function should be associated with a physical button. The
microphone’s XML file configuration is not required.
−
Fault Clear
:
Pressing the button clears faults on a VIPA device. The red LED indicator
on the button is turned on if the VIPA device has any active faults.
The button can be configured to clear faults only on the local VIPA device to which it is
attached or on a remote VIPA device.
•
Local VIPA device: Leave the
Target
(Optional Settings) blank.
•
Remote VIPA device: Enter in a text string in the form "rtr_jcop@<hostname>/Jcop"
in the
Target
(Optional Settings) property where <hostname> is the host name of
the remote VIPA device, as configured in the Required Settings category of the
VIPA device node.
The Fault Clear function should be associated with a physical button. The microphone’s
XML file configuration is not required.
NOTE
:
The MPS microphone supports up to 50 buttons. However, only buttons 1 to 30 can be
configured for zone selection (Page), background music routing (BGM), fault status or fault
clear.
To Configure a VIPA Device to Report MPS Microphone Faults (IP Connection):
The VIPA device reports the following faults for IP connection:
•
Microphone communication fault
•
Microphone capsule fault
These faults will be associated with the last analogue audio input configured on the VIPA device. For
example, if the VIPA device is configured with four audio inputs, then the MPS faults will be associated with
audio input 4. Therefore, the VIPA device should be configured with a spare audio input for the MPS fault
reporting.
If all analogue audio inputs are being used, then configure a virtual audio input in any of the Audio Devices.
The example in Figure 9 (page 43) shows an iPAM400 which has been configured with four physical inputs
and one virtual input. The MPS microphone faults are associated with input port 6; see Figure 10 (page 44).
