Custom voice messages can be used to identify your IMS Hosts/Nodes, PowerGates, Input sensors, IP alarms, and

PowerGate outlets. Voice messages must first be recorded on your computer and then uploaded to the IMS Host. Use the

CustomVoice Manager screen to record and upload your voice messages. To access the CustomVoice Manager screen,

expand the Host menu and select Voice. Note that Voice messages should be recorded at 8Khz, 8bit, mono, to keep the file

size small. See the detailed section on Recording and Uploading Voice Messages later in the manual for more information.

IMS Host Identification message

- Host Unit Properties Screen

IMS Node Identification message
