Configuring the system
This chapter explains how to use the configuration software. All these settings have
to be made only once to integrate the MusiCall system into the building. The settings
can be stored into a file, so that it is easy to adjust and restore all the settings.
Connecting the computer
The PC is connected to the system with a RS232 cable. When the MusiCall system
is connected without the Qfm tuner, the cable has to be connected to directly to the
RS232 port on the host. When a Qfm tuner is connected the cable can be connected
to the free RS232 port on the tuner.
Start the configuration software. First you have to find the correct COM-port. This can
be done by clicking ‘Connection’, then ‘Select comport’. This window can be access
by pushing F12.
Press ‘Auto search’, the computer will
try to find the MusiCall system. Now
press ‘Save’ to store the comport. Close
the window by clicking ‘OK’.
Connecting to the host
Select ‘Connection’ Æ ‘Connect’, or push F10, to establish the connection to the
system. Some settings will be downloaded to the computers memory. Depending on
the configuration the menu’s ‘MusiCall Host’ and ‘Qfm’ will be made active.
To configure the system the menu ‘MusiCall host’
Æ ‘Configure host’ has to be
selected. The configuration window now appears.
Adjusting the configuration
In this window the input names
can be changed. This name
will appear in the wallunits
displays when the input is
selected. By un-selecting the
box ‘inputs enabled’ the input
will not be selected by the
wallunits. Temporarily
disconnected inputs can be
made inactive.
The slider ‘Attenuation’ controls the input attenuation. Use this to match the different
audio-levels of the audio-sources.
Store the configuration by pressing the ‘Update’ button.
When the box ‘Update inputs after update’ is selected, the settings will become
active immediately, otherwise the new settings will be activated when a wallunit
selects the input.
