Managing Tones
Nyquist provides tones that can be used with events, such as schedules, or as audio indicators, such as
alarms. You also can download and generate customized tones or select to use a line input channel as
the tone source. Default tones include white noise and pink noise that you can use to tune paging vol-
umes for time-based zones.
Note: Make sure that stations and zones have been configured and that the station you are using to
launch an alarm or tone has the appropriate Class of Service (CoS) parameters set. The navigation bar
does not appear if you are not authorized to make changes to the C4000 configuration. Contact your
system administrator or refer to the Nyquist C4000 System Administrator Guide.
