Announcement Interruption (Multiple PM
systems only)
If the system has more than one PM microphone, it is possible that announcements
may be attempted from different microphones simultaneously. Priority assignments
made during the system installation can prevent two microphones on the network
from making an announcement at the same time. You may therefore find that your
announcement is temporarily overridden by another announcement, from a PM with
higher priority.
If your announcement conflicts with one from a higher priority microphone, yours will
be cut off and the interrupting announcement will take over. The interrupted PM will
indicate this condition by the ZONE LEDs flashing. The selection LEDs will remain lit
so that you can make your announcement again once the system is free.
