FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

IV.1

Control Area. Communications

Thanks to BRAVE protocol, among other benefits, most Quantum units can
service two independent bidirectional IP audio communications:

PROGRAM or CODEC 1

TALKBACK or CODEC 2

Each communication is operated and displays its actual status by means of a
touch button on the control area of the main screen.

Possible communications statuses are:



Disconnected

(channel idle; ready for next connection)



Connecting

(establishing the connection)



Connected

(streaming is ongoing)



Reconnecting

(resuming the connection)



Down

(Ethernet or 3G/4G modem not detected)



Negotiating DHCP

(acquiring IP address)

In 3G/4G and Custom modes, the communication bars show a series of small
circles, one for each of the participant interfaces in the communication. These
circles are grey when the interface is detected but the link is disconnected; green

when the link is active and red when the link is down. When a circle blinks is
because communication is being established in that interface:
