• N+1 System—a system consisting of two E3 controllers sharing a single set of amplifiers with
duplicated access panels and I/O controllers
The first controller operates as the primary controller and the second controller operates as the back-
up. The primary controller manages system operation under normal conditions. The back-up
controller becomes active to maintain system operation upon failure of the primary controller.
NOTE: Redundant Elemec3 systems require NTP (Network Time Protocol) network service.
• IP Only—a system consisting of an IP controller that supports only IP audio streams and IP devices.
The IP controller does not support the event recorder or inserts to the system.
NOTE: Switching to an IP only system type from any other type removes all non-IP only information
from the configuration. The E3 Console notifies the user of this when this occurs.
Volume Level—sets the system-wide volume for all stored audio playback.
Attenuation—sets the system-wide attenuation level. Audio attenuates to this level, either through
mixing (live speech and playback audio) or through an access panel’s ATTENUATE button.
Network Settings—Refer to the Network Settings section on page 14.
Event Recorder Enabled—(Not applicable to the IP Controller) records specific events and live audio
broadcasts using one or two external recording device(s), connected to the AUXILIARY AUDIO OUTPUT
ONE terminals, on the E3 controller. See Pub. 42004-497, Elemec3 System Controllers, for event
recorder connection information (see the Reference Documentation section).
Enable audio event recording if using an event recorder connected to the E3 controller.
Max Mute Duration—the maximum duration of audio muting.
Select a MUTE push button on an access panel or the MUTE ON ACK property of an event to mute the
event. After the specified mute duration, the audio resumes broadcasting if it can access the resources
to do so.
Max Attenuation Duration—the maximum duration of audio attenuation.
Select the ATTENUATE ALARM push button on an access panel at normal volume level to attenuate an
audio event. A setting of 00:00:00 sets the maximum attenuation duration to forever.
Max Fault Acknowledge Duration—the maximum duration that active faults remain acknowledged
before the system requires reacknowledgement. Acknowledge faults using the E3 Portal application.
Disable Mix 2?—disables the second audio mix, limiting the system to a single audio pathway. A mix is
an audio pathway to the system amplifiers. The system has two audio pathways or mixes to the
amplifiers.
NOTE: This feature supports legacy Elemec systems. Do not enable this setting in current systems. The
Elemec3 system will be incapable of multiple simultaneous broadcasts when enabled.
Allow Mix Substitution?—allows for mixed audio (Live Speech + Playback) routing to the Aux,
Page/Party, or Monitor outputs.
Select ALLOW MIX SUBSTITUTION? to mix events targeting the same audio output before sending the
mixed audio to that audio output. Bridge outputs to the remote system always allow mix substitution,
regardless of this setting.
