Note that when the microphone is connected to a Control Node (VAR8-ACU), the Control Node uses the
priority to arbitrate the use of the network channels, and then each Slave Node in the network uses its own
priority configuration for local arbitration.
Set the priority for the microphone input as required.
Consult the system design documentation to find the correct priority.

indicate Voice Alarm condition if any Router output is connected to an input that has been configured as a
High or Low Priority Emergency source.
