8.2.4 Priority by normal paging "PA"
The MPA system is a single access system. Meaning that only one operator can use the system
at any time. The priority is programmable by software. If operator I has higher priority than
operator II, then operator I can override operator II. However, the operator II can override I
with the use of Emergency PA (EM-PA) key.
Priority is shown in the list below.
A “ding-dong” tone is generated for all new PA-messages.
The tone is also generated in override situations.
Priority levels:
1. MPA 1601 Navigation Bridge – Emergency PA (User 1)
2. MPA 1601 Alternative Position – Emergency PA (User 2)
3. Others – Emergency PA (User 3-6)
4. MPA 1601 Navigation Bridge – (normal) PA (User 1)
5. MPA 1601 Alternative Position –(normal) PA (User 2)
6. Others – (normal) PA (User 3-6)
Check by activating the EM-PA/PA-button that the priority of access
between the users are according to the above table for any
sequence and combination of users.
Users with the same priority level will operate as "first come, first serve." Pass/Fail
For the current active user-panel, the EM-PA/PA led is green.
For users with equal or lower priority than the current user,
the led is red. And for users with higher priority the led is dark. Pass/Fail
When a user is paging (PA) in an override situation with differences
between active and passive zones, then all zones will be active. Pass/Fail
If a user is shut down by an override situation the EM-PA/PA led
will change from green to red on this user panel. Pass/Fail
