Test Tone Volume Adjust – The unit will generate a tone at the current volume setting when it enters
the test tone mode. This entry sets the duration of the test tone. When the unit volume is adjusted (in test
tone mode), the unit will generate a tone at the newly selected level. The valid range is 0.5–6.0 seconds
in 0.5-second increments.
Output Contact
These settings control the activation of the paging module’s contact closure output. The settings are in
effect only when the paging module is activated. Use the pull-down menu to make one of the following
selections:
 No Change – Disables the output contact.
 Activate – The output contact will change state when the input control contact is received and the
module becomes active. The output contact returns to the normal state when the input contact opens.
 Activate + Hold – The output contact will change state when the input control contact is received.
The output contact returns to the normal state after the input contact opens and the Hold Time
duration expires.
Use the slide bar to set the Hold Time. Valid range is 1 second to 30 minutes.
Using the radio button, select the normal state of the relay contact with power applied to the paging
module. When power is removed, the contact will always be in the OPEN state.
 Normally Open – relay contact is OPEN when the unit is inactive and CLOSED when active.
 Normally Closed - relay contact is CLOSED when the unit is inactive and OPEN when active.
Low Battery Alert
 Battery Checking – Select this checkbox to set the unit to test the battery voltage every 4 minutes.
If the battery voltage is low when the battery test occurs, the unit will broadcast a short alert tone.
The factory default “low battery” threshold is 11.5 V. If a backup battery is not connected to the
Paging Module, do not enable the Battery Checking.
 Alert Tone Volume – Selects the volume of the “low” alert tone as a fraction of the unit’s speaker
output level. The factory default setting is 50%.
