MICROPHONE PAGING AND ORDER OF PRIORITY
1. A microphone connected to the AM-821 can be used for recording and direct paging. Placing the
microphone switch in the ON position enables you to make the microphone paging when the power is
being fed to the AM-821. The built-in AGC circuit releases you from work to adjust the sound volume
frequency.
2. The AM-821 is designed to allow the microphone paging to have the highest priority, overriding the
background music and tape playback. Several seconds after the microphone paging is restored. When no
microphone paging is being made, the pre-recorded announcement takes precedence of the background
music.
Caution : Be sure to place the microphone switch in the OFF position after the microphone paging has
been finished.
