7.0. STANDARD CLIENT GUI
The Client features audio and control devices that provide a complete operator interface to the
DIS network communications environment. The standard Synapse Voisus Server system connects
to customer provided Windows or Linux PCs hosting the clients. Client stations may include
optional headsets, mics, and PTTs.
The Voisus interface provides runtime communications control settings (volume, sidetone,
receive and transmit access) for each net available on the network.
The Voisus Operator settings configured in Studio provide the pre-set values for the Voisus inter-
face. At system startup, these values are automatically loaded into the software application. These
settings include:
• Operator
:
The operator name for the client station.
•
Radio
: Defines the radio or intercoms available to the operator.
•
RX/TX
: Sets comms status for Receive Only, Transmit and Receive or Off, for each radio.
•
RX/TX Lock
: Grants comms status change privileges to the Client. If locked, it disables the
operator’s ability to change the comms status (receive, transmit or off) for each DIS radio.
This means that the presets loaded from the software configuration cannot be changed by
the operator.
•
Net Lock
: Lock prohibits the operators ability to change the Net for that position. This
means that the preset nets loaded from the software configuration cannot be changed by the
operator.
Once the system starts, the Voisus display shows the operator’s communications status, as loaded
from the software configuration.
Select each net. Click on the net number to cycle through Receive Only (green), Transmit and
Receive (blue), and none (gray).
Receive Only allows the operator to hear audio received on the radio. When a transmission from
another radio is received, the entire radio name turns Green. The radio name is illuminated in light
green when the audio is active, but the operator isn’t actively listening.
Transmit and Receive allows the operator to receive and transmit on the selected radio when the
PTT is pressed. Notice when the PTT is pressed, the entire radio name turns blue; this indicates
the operator is currently transmitting. The radio name is illuminated in light blue when a shared
radio is transmitting but the operator is not transmitting on that radio.
