DMPX 1/2 Low Audio
The DMPX1/2 input level has fallen below the
user configured low audio threshold for
longer than the user configured timeout.
The DMPX1/2 input must be configured as
the main audio source in the active preset for
this alarm to trigger.
The Main Audio Low Audio Alarm must be
enabled in the active preset for this alarm to
occur.
The presence of this alarm will cause a switch
to the backup audio source if configured in
the active preset.
This alarm will clear immediately when the
DMPX1/2 input level has increased above the
configured threshold
Performing an alarm reset will clear this
alarm and reset the timeout.
Clearing this alarm will cause switch back to
the main audio source if the transmitter was
previously operating on the backup source.
Check the audio feed connected to the
DMPX1 (AES1)/DMPX2 (AES2) input. The
most likely cause of this alarm is an
interruption in audio distribution to the
transmitter.
Verify that the threshold level
programmed in the active preset is
below the normal audio input level by
checking the DMPX1/2 meter.
Verify that the configured timeout is long
enough to cover any silence or dips in
signal level.
