the unit. Changes to these DIP switches must be done with the power OFF.

For example: Slots 10, 25, & 50 have messages, AND the switch settings on the bottom of the unit are set for 10 

minutes.  During normal operation triggered messages will play on demand, but every 10 minutes ONE of the 

timed messages will play . . . first slot 10 will play then wait 10 minutes . . . then slot 25 will play . . . wait 10 

minutes . . . then slot 50 . . . wait 10 minutes . . . then slot 10 . . . and so on. If BGM music is used, then it will fade 

down to play the message then fade back up after the message is played.

ROTATE/STANDARD - DIP switch position SW5 is used to select the standard or rotate message feature for 

message slots 1 through 8. 

When this DIP switch is set to “ON” the unit will rotate through the messages on each triggering of input TRIGGER 

1. For example, the first time TRIGGER 1 is activated message 1.mp3 will play, the next time TRIGGER 1 is 

activated message 2.mp3 will play, and so on. Triggering of TRIGGER 2 through 8 will have no effect.

When this DIP switch is set to “OFF” the unit will trigger normally - Normally is defined as any one of the 

eight contact closures that are activated will trigger the corresponding message. Example TRIGGER 1 will play 

message 1.mp3, TRIGGER 2 will play message 2.mp3, and so on. The unit has 8 triggered inputs.

Note: If you only have one message on the unit then STANDARD or ROTATE will have the same effect.
