3.9 Alert Audio
The PAC45J incorporates an independent alert audio system that can store nine audio messages recorded by
the user and played back when triggered by an external source.
Once triggered, the alert audio will continue until the ACK button (front
panel or external) on the CTL45J control panel is pushed, or the trigger
input returns to normal. Edge-triggered alerts will play 3 times or until
ACK is pushed, whichever occur first.
The PAC45J system can store three audio alerts, default audio is stored
at the factory. These are “Master Caution,” “Alert,” a simple chime, 1000 Hz tone, Doorbell Chime, Ring
Tone, “Timer at Zero,” “Intercom Call,” and “ Check Engine Instruments.”
3.9.1
Storing Alert Audio
The PAC45J systems can store nine audio alerts. You must record
all nine
when the unit is in audio pro-
gram mode. You cannot change
only one at a time
. If you wish to replace just one message, we recommend
you write down all the messages before starting the procedure.
To record messages from the pilot’s headset:
1.
Press & Hold “remote acknowledge button” (P453-23 to ground) until a chime is heard in
the headset, and then
release
the button.
2.
COM1 will blink, to indicate the recording of ALERT #1.
3.
Start speaking message.
4.
When finished with Alert #1, press the button again.
5.
Now COM2 will blink, to indicate the recording of ALERT #2.
6.
Speak message.
7.
When finished with Alert #2, press the “button”
8.
Repeat for messages #3 to #9
9.
A chime indicates that recording is now finished.
NOTE: If the acknowledge button is not pressed to indicate end of recording, it will record for five seconds,
and then advance to next alert. After all time slots are timed out, the PAC45J will exit the alert recording
mode.
