On the Windows desktop task bar, click on the 

Sound icon

. Two sound slider controls appear. 

One is for the Central Station and another is for the display. Try changing these, the sound 
should be produced at the Central Station and/or from the repeater display. 

Figure E-15 Setting Windows volume levels 

 

Note 

It is recommended to make sure that volume is set to highest for both the Central 
Station and repeater display. If there are sound adjustments to be made for the 
repeater display, it must be through 

repeater display’s local control or remote 

control. 

 

Note 

If the two sound controls are not displayed as shown below, reboot the central 
station. After startup, make sure that the two sound controls are displayed and 
working. 

At this point, configuration changes are complete.
