• Not-Latched:
This mode is useful for the control of both DVA routes and other sources, such as background
music.
When configured for non-latching operation the first press of a DVA Routing button initiates a route,
and the second press terminates it.
This is the system default setting.
• Latched:
This mode is normally used for emergency DVA message routes, but can also be of use for routing
other inputs.
When configured for latching operation pressing a DVA Routing button initiates a route; and pressing
the associated reset button terminates it.
A group of ‘DVA Routing’ buttons may share a single reset button, or each button may have its own
dedicated reset. If multiple DVA routes have been triggered by consecutive triggers in a single
group, the activation of that group’s ‘reset’ line will terminate all of the DVA routes associated with
that reset.
• Play Once:
This mode is only used for the control of DVA routes.
When configure for ‘Play Once’ mode, pressing a ‘DVA Routing’ plays the DVAs associated with the
route once only. When the DVA has completed its full message cycle, the route is automatically
terminated.
