Digital Alert Systems: DASDEC User Manual
If the port is unavailable (the USB expansion unit is not installed) on the DASDEC II, it would read:
Expansion USB Serial 1 Not Available!
The screen shot shows an example of the USB 1 serial port with the BetaBrite LED protocol enabled. The FIPS
and EAS code filter interface operates just like the same interface on the Main Serial port configuration page.
As with the Main Serial Port page, REMEMBER to click to make any changes to these pages
apply.
4.7.3 Serial port protocols
The supported protocols and their options are listed next.
1. Monroe R194 CG Settings
No attributes to set. This is only available on the Main Serial port.
2. Monroe CEMS 500/1000 CG Attribute Settings
Repeat Alert Video Display – Defaults to Do Not Repeat.
Select from a set of options for repeating the data write to the remote device after a pause period set
from the Set Alert Video Repetition Period field. The repeat period has to be at least 2 minutes.
3. TFT Standard protocol Attribute Settings
This is available on all serial ports, however, the first port (starting with Main and ending with USB 4) using
TFT standard controls audio play-out.
TFT emulation mode: EAS ORG code is untranslated – Defaults to disabled.
When disabled, the ORG code "EAS' is translated in the alert translation text. Enable to emulate the
TFT behavior of not translating ORG code "EAS'.
TFT Pre-Alert Notification mode – Defaults to disabled.
When disabled, EAS Alerts are exclusively played under TFT client control. When enabled, notifies and
gives alert command access to TFT client prior to independent alert play-out. If this option is enabled
then another toggle is presented:

Check to play audio if TFT client requests EAS alert audio play-out. If disabled, the audio requests
will be immediately answered without audio play-out.

When disabled, the standard DASDEC II EAS Audio relays are used. When enabled, requests by the
TFT client for relays will be mapped to the DASDEC II GPIO output relays.
Max Delay before forced play-out – Defaults to 13 minutes.
Set this value in minutes: seconds from 2 minutes, 10 seconds up to a maximum of 13 minutes. This is
the maximum time that can elapse after a successful EAS ready to play notification to a remote TFT
protocol device before the EAS audio will be force played.
Pre/Post Alert Audio extension – Defaults to disabled.
When enabled, TFT client audio play commands will use pre and post alert audio if they are defined.
