3.13 Music Input
The music input feature allows users to broadcast background
music to all stations which are enabled for paging. The music input
feature can be turned on or off using any keypad on the system.
For the music input to work, the incoming audio signal must be
connected to a port which is programmed for music input. See 2.6
“Music Input Wiring” on page 6 and 4.1 “Port Definitions” on
page 12 for more information.
To turn on the background music, enter user programming
[*][6][Master Code] then press [9]. To turn off the music, enter
[*][6][Master Code][9] again.
NOTE: The monitor and music input feature cannot be on at the
same time. If both are turned on monitoring will take priority and
the music will not be heard.
3.14 Alarm Follower
The audio stations will sound alarm conditions along with the Bell
Output of the control panel. All stations will sound an alarm using
Burglary and Fire type tones. All Burglary alarms will sound a
steady alarm output. All Fire alarms will sound a pulsed alarm
output.
3.15 Verbal Alarm Announcements
If you have installed an Escort5580TC v3.0 on the system, when
zones go into alarm the Escort will announce the labels for those
zones over the intercom system. The alarm announcement will be
as follows:
• an alarm tone
• verbal announcement of the first zone in alarm
• verbal announcement of the latest zone in alarm
• series repeats until alarms are silenced.
NOTE: This feature is only available with the PC5020/P-8+ v3.1.
