Message Player Overview
The message player feature allows uploading and configuring audio files to the AZM messages storage library where they can then be selected and used by
the system to play a message, tone, bell, or chime, as a stand-alone function or as part of system events, schedules, or triggered third party device functions.

•
As a Routine. (see Routines page to “Select” and/or “Include” message settings)
