When navigating through the menu, this button acts as the ESC button, i.e. canceling an action or returning to a higher-level menu.

↓ Pressing this button stops a live audio signal

(gong, alarm, text). The precise function can be configured in the IRIS-Net software.

This button is used to scroll down when navigating through the menu.

DEL This button is used to select all circuits for

announcements, gong/alarm signals, speech reproduction, or program assignment. Pressing the button once selects all circuits, and the corresponding LEDs and the DEL LED illuminate. Pressing the button again deletes the entire selection. The following options can be selected in IRIS-Net:

• Switch between "Select All" and "Delete All"

• Select All

• Delete All

The button acts as the backspace key for numerical entries.

↵ This button is used to activate an announcement

in selected circuits or groups. The precise function of the LED is described in section Indicators, page 24 . The toggle mode can be programmed optionally.

When navigating through the menu, the button is used to confirm an entry or select a selected entry.

Button Announcement mode Menu mode

Selection buttons

There are 15 selection buttons with corresponding LEDs. These are used to select individual circuits or groups for announcements, gong/alarm signals, speech reproduction, or program assignment (press once = on, press again = off). The LEDs show the current selection status (see section Indicators, page 24). The buttons can also be assigned a special function or no function (no assignment). The functions are assigned when configuring via a PC.

Entering numbers

ALARM This button is used to start an alarm signal,

which is transmitted to programmable circuits. The alarm LED illuminates as soon as the alarm is triggered. Pressing the ESC button stops the alarm again. The alarm type is defined during configuration of the PROMATRIX system.

Selection call

The user can make an announcement in freely selectable circuits or groups. Confirming one or more selection buttons selects the circuits or groups in which the announcement is to be made. The corresponding green LEDs illuminate. A line that has already been selected can be disabled again by pressing the corresponding selection button again, and the relevant green LED switches off. If the yellow LED of a selection button has not switched off, the corresponding zone/group is not free (see section Indicators, page 24). Once the selection has been made, the call is started by pressing the ↵ button. Prior to this, the ↵ LED indicates whether all lines or the call station input are free. If individual lines or the input is occupied by a lower-priority event, the ↵ LED flashes slowly. An announcement can still be made, but this will interrupt another event. If individual lines or the input is occupied by a higher-priority event, the ↵ LED flashes quickly, and the call request is ignored (see the indicator descriptions). During the announcement, the ↵ LED illuminates green. The ↵ button must be held down until the end of the announcement. The ↵ LED starts to flash green if a user is interrupted by an event with higher priority. In this case, the announcement must be repeated. After releasing the ↵ button, the selection remains until the next change. Pressing the DEL button twice deletes the entire selection.

All-call

The announcement is made in all system circuits. The procedure is the same as for the selection call. First, all system circuits are selected by pressing the DEL button. Pressing the ↵ button activates the all-call. The green LEDs for all existing circuit or group buttons and the DEL LED illuminate during the call (see section Indicators, page 24). The ↵ button must be held down until the end of the announcement. The ↵ LED behaves in the same way as during the selection call.

Notice!

The alarm trigger depends on the priority of the call station from which the alarm is activated.

The user can configure the call stations from which an alarm may be triggered. If configured,

an alarm can also be triggered if the system is in standby mode. A visual and possibly also

acoustic signal is sent to each call station in the system to indicate that an alarm is active.

Alarm buttons can be configured in such a way that an alarm signal is transmitted to all lines. A general alarm signal is transmitted to all lines in the system. Pressing the covered ALARM button triggers the alarm. The button illuminates red during the alarm. An alarm has high priority, and takes precedence over all announcements or signals except for actions that are triggered from the central station. Pressing the ESC button switches the alarm off again.

Notice!

The alarm trigger depends on the priority of the call station from which the alarm is activated.

The user can configure the call stations from which an alarm may be triggered. If configured,

an alarm can also be triggered if the system is in standby mode. A visual and possibly also

acoustic signal is sent to each call station in the system to indicate that an alarm is active.

Alarm buttons can be configured in such a way that an alarm signal is only transmitted to certain lines that have been previously selected. As with the selection call, the circuits/groups to which an alarm is to be transmitted must be selected first of all. Then the covered button for the selection alarm must be pressed. The button illuminates red during the alarm. Now the lines for the next alarm can be selected. Pressing the ESC button switches the alarm off again.

Stopping signals

Pressing the ↓ button stops a current alarm or gong, or cancels speech reproduction. The function of the ESC button (priority, local events etc.) can be configured in IRIS-Net. One exception is the central station (call station with the highest priority), which can cancel any signals.

System on/off

The PROMATRIX 8000 system can be switched on or off with the ↑ button. Normally, this is not possible from any call station. For this reason, this function can be programmed via IRISNet. In deactivated mode (standby), the corresponding LED is off. Pressing the ↑ button switches on the PROMATRIX 8000 system. During the activation process, the ↑ LED flashes, and when the system is ready for operation, the ↑ LED remains illuminated (applies to all call stations in the system). To switch off the system, the ↑ button must be pressed and held down for approx. three seconds. This requirement prevents unintentional deactivation if the button is pressed accidentally. The PROMATRIX system can also be switched on or booted up automatically from an external location by pressing the ALARM button or triggering an alarm sequence.

Special functions

Each of the selection buttons on the call station can be assigned a special function. This means a call station can also be used as an input terminal to control lighting, door openers, window blinds, and so on. The volume levels can also be controlled via the Up/Down buttons. More information on this topic can be found in the IRIS-Net documentation.

CAN bus basics

The CAN bus uses a bus or line topology as its network topology. This means that all participants are connected to a single twisted pair cable (shielded or unshielded), where the cabling must run from one bus participant to the next. As a result, each device can communicate with any other device without any limitations. The CAN bus must terminate at both ends with a 120-ohm load resistor. If the termination is missing or incorrect, malfunctions can occur as the signal on a bus is reflected at both ends of the bus. This signal is distorted when the reflections overlap with the original signal, which can lead to data loss. To prevent or minimize reflections at the bus ends, terminators are used, which "absorb" the energy of the signal. Since the CAN interface is galvanically isolated from the remaining circuit parts in many EVI audio devices, a shared earth cable (CAN_GND) is added to the network cabling (see the following diagram). In this way, it is ensured that all CAN interfaces in the network have the same potential.

Figure 11.1: CAN bus

Call station extension

A maximum of five call station extensions (type DPC 8120) can be connected to the DPC 8015 call station. The DPC 8120 call station extension has 20 customizable function and speed dial buttons. A maximum of five call station extensions can be installed on one call station. Each button on the call station extensions has a green and a yellow LED, and the buttons are labeled in the same way as for the call station. In other words, the labels are protected by a transparent covering, and can be changed at any time. The call station can still be used as a standing or flush-mounted device even with call station extensions installed. Like the call station, the call station extension is monitored internally. If an error occurs, this is recorded in the error log of the PROMATRIX 8000 system.
