PREZONE2 Webapp

Once the PREZONE2 is connected to a network and is accessible via PC or 

mobile device, the webapp may be used to control features and functions of the 

PREZONE2.The primary components of the webapp are the control page and 

the settings page. 
The table that follows gives device, operating system and browser combinations 

that have been tested and are supported. Other configurations not listed here 

are likely to function properly but have not been tested.

1.  Zone Selection Tabs

The zone selection tabs enable control of either Zone 1 or 2. Both zone 

tabs have controls for mic volume, source selection and volume and give 

status of clipping, paging and emergency mode status.

2.  MIC A and B Controls

The MIC A and B rotary dials control the level of the respective microphone 

input of the zone selected. The loudspeaker icon in the middle of the dial 

turns the microphone on or off.

3.  Line Level Control

This rotary level control adjusts the volume of the selected source. The 

loudspeaker icon in the middle of the dial turns the source audio on or off.

4.  Line Source Selection

Allows selecting the input for the current zone; only one source may be 

selected at a time.

5.  Power, Night Mode and Settings

•  Power Button - puts the PREZONE2 in Standby Mode.
•  Night Mode - changes the color scheme so the PREZONE2 display is 

more suitable (dimmer) for dark locations.

•  Settings - enters the settings page. See "Settings Page" for information.

6.  Status Indicators

•  Signal / Clip - illuminated green when a signal is present; illuminated 

red when the signal is clipping in the selected zone.

•  Paging - illuminated green when a paging announcement is active in 

the selected zone.

•  Emergency - illuminated green when emergency mode is active

LEDs on the front panel will reflect the level, selection and status in the webapp 

and vice-versa. For example, when adjusting the volume control for Zone 1 in 

the webapp, the LED around the Zone 1 knob will adjust accordingly.
