Recording Voice Messages
4-2 Verbatim Owner's Manual
4.1 Planning Messages
Worksheet C in Appendix J is provided to assist you with this. Please use the
Worksheet! Not only will you then have a written record of your messages for
future reference, you will also then be prepared to record your messages with
the greatest ease and efficiency.
In general, two different messages are used for each input channel:
One message for the Normal Condition, and another for the Alarm (fault)
Condition.
When you have written down the messages that you want to record, you are
ready to verify/extend your recording time.
v
Exceptions:
u
Status-only or Run-time Metering Channels. See Section 6.2.3, “Channel
Programming (Configuring).”
To record your own messages for these specially configured channels
rather than relying on the default “Channel N is ON” or “Channel N is
OFF” messages:
l
Plan a message for the Closed Circuit condition and another
message for the Open Circuit condition for each channel.
For Run-time channels, the unit will add a report of the run-time in hours,
using built-in speech, after the Closed or Open Circuit message.
u Pulse Totalizer Channels
See Section 6.2.3, “Channel Programming (Configuring),” for special
guidance in planning Pulse Totalizer messages.
4.2 Managing Available Speech Memory
The table below shows the total available message recording time for units with
differing total number of channels. The available message recording time may
be extended in two ways. First, you may explicitly change the recording rate
from the default Rate 1 to Rates 2, 3, or 4 (See Section 6). Secondly, you may
automatically extend the message recording time by using the Autoextend
TM
feature described in this section.
Unit type Initial recording Extendable to:
time (at Rate 1): (Rate 2, 3 or 4)
4-8 26 sec 40, 54 or 79 sec
