Glossary of Terms
The arrangement of two Elemec3 systems whereby redundancy is achieved
through coordinated duplicated operations. The B ‘Redundant’ system may
have some amplifiers excluded.
End user interface device used to control of alarms and to generate live speech
broadcasts. The panel is available in three formats—19-inch rack mounting,
desk mounting, and bulk-head mounting. Stalk or fist microphones are
available.
Method of feedback prevention by way of automatic disconnection of local
speakers during an access panel live speech broadcast. Disconnection employs
an output of an I/O controller.
Device containing one or two amplifier channels.
To reduce the broadcast volume by a specified amount. Audio is attenuated
either on-demand (from an access panel), or by a higher priority event (in
accord with the Global Audio Mix setup).
Designations for the five auxiliary audio channels (inputs to the controller).
Designations for the eight IP auxiliary audio channels (inputs to the controller).
A named collection of settings that describe system behavior. The Elemec
Console application creates, modifies, and manages configurations. The
configuration is stored in a directory and consists of a main file (config.db) plus
several audio message (.mp3) files.
The central device of the PAGA system that coordinates audio routing and
event activation requests in accord with the configuration.
A type of event group that automatic substitutes a general event to occur if
multiple specific events initiate.
Software application that provides for viewing of an Elemec3 system’s status,
for initiating Tick Tone, and for managing Configuration updates.
A defined set of actions performed by the controller. An event may generate
audio, route audio, and activate outputs. Events are set up using the Elemec3
Console application. At any given time, an event in the system is either active
or idle. Each event has many characteristics that govern the system’s response
to the activation of the event and to the event’s progression. Event types
include live speech, playback, record/playback, silent, and external.
Elemec3’s mechanism for allowing an Event to trigger another Event, with the
possibility of the trigger being dependent on the state of an input, an output, or a
Flag. A sequence of activations setup through chaining of Events.
A collection of Playback Events.
A trouble condition detected within the system. Through Elemec3 Console,
faults are categorized as either Normal or Urgent (or Ignore) depending on
their severity level. Set a fault to “Ignore” if it is considered insignificant; this
fault will never be displayed by Elemec3 Portal application.
Time-limited suppression of audio in accord with one of four preset settings.
