11.2.2  Gaining EVS Control
When attempting to gain EVS Control, there are three things that govern whether or not EVS Control can be obtained: 
1. LOC Priority.
2. LOC Lockout.
3. User profile access control.
LOC Priority
LOCs are assigned (through panel or HFSS Honeywell Fire Software Suite programming of the EVS-VCM or EVS-RVM) an LOC pri-
ority of low, normal, or high. LOCs with a higher priority are always able to gain control from a lower priority LOC.
LOC Lockout
When LOCs are programmed to the same priority, the setting LOC lockout applies. LOC lockout will not allow an LOC to gain EVS 
Control from the LOC with EVS Control until one of three things happen:
1. The LOC lockout timer expires. Once the LOC lockout timer expires, an attempt to gain EVS Control can be made again.
2. The user at the second LOC requests EVS Control from the LOC with EVS Control and that LOC grants the request. (See Section 
11.2.7). If the EVS lockout timer expires while an EVS Control request is in progress, the system will automatically pass EVS 
Control to the requesting LOC.
3. The user at the second LOC enters an access code with the EVS Super User profile option.
The LOC lockout timer can be set between immediate and 12 hours in increments of 1 second or it can be set to never expire. The default 
setting is 30 seconds. The LOC lockout timer is restarted upon any key press at the LOC with EVS control. The LOC lockout timer is 
cleared when EVS Control is relinquished.
NOTE: These are only active when the microphone PTT (Push To Talk) is engaged.
