3.1 LC-display
Depending on the actual operational status of the PROMATRIX 8000 system, the LC-display shows
information on time, operation mode, user notes, setting up, fault messages including precise device /
module specification, etc.
Status messages
During error free operation of the PROMATRIX 8000 system the LC-display shows the name / description
of the paging console in line 1 and the current date and time in line 2.
Error messages
An error within the PROMATRIX 8000 system is indicated at the paging console in following way:
• The FAULT LED is blinking and a warning signal sounds via the integrated loudspeaker.
• The description of the error is indicated in the LC-display. If several errors exist at the same time the
corresponding error messages are indicated alternating.
• By pressing the STOP button the acoustic warning signal stops and the FAULT LED changes from
blinking to permanently on.
• The FAULT LED lights as long as the error in the PROMATRIX 8000 system exists.
3.2 Operation mode
After power on the paging console is in operation mode. For configuring the paging console the setup
mode is used. Several key functions differ between setup mode and operation mode, see following table.
Operation mode Setup mode
n (ON) The n button turns the system‘s power on or off. Turning the
power on can take several seconds. The ON LED blinks while
the system boots. The ON LED lights steadily when the system is operational. To prevent inadvertent erroneous operating pressing the key for at least 3 seconds is necessary when
turning the power off. It is also possible to prohibit the operation of the ON key during the configuration procedure.
In setup mode this
button is used to
select the previous
parameter/menu
item.
ESC (STOP) Pressing the STOP button cancels an output alarm signal or
text message. Only events that were triggered from a specific
paging console can be stopped from the exact terminal with
the exception of the directing station. This terminal allows
canceling all signals.
This button is used
to cancel the editing of a parameter
or to move upwards
in the menu tree.
Paging Console
Owner‘s Manual 11
Selective Call
The user can launch calls or announcements into freely selectable areas or groups.
Pressing a single or several selection buttons defines areas or groups where a call is launched into –
corresponding green LEDs will light. By pressing the key of an already pre-selected line once again
deactivates that line and the corresponding green LED goes out. If the yellow LED of a selection button
lights, the corresponding area or group is busy.
After making a selection, pressing the TALK button ignites the call. Prior hereto, the TALK LED allows
checking whether all lines and the paging station input are actually free. If single lines or the terminal input
are busy with lower priority transmissions, the TALK LED will blink slowly. Whilst making an announcement
is possible, this will interrupt any other transmitted event. If single lines or the terminal input are busy with
p (PROGRAM)
Pressing the PROGRAM button selects the program assign
mode. The selection keys are used in this mode to assign a
program (background music) to the desired areas or groups.
The PROGRAM LED lights while being in the program assign
mode. In this case the green selection LEDs indicate the
areas / groups the program is being transmitted into.
Keeping the ON button pressed and simultaneously pressing
the PROGRAM key selects the setup mode. Now you can
alter preferences or make other changes as described in the
chapter Paging Console Configuration in Setup mode on
page 14. The setup mode is automatically canceled when for
approximately 15 seconds no entry or change has been
made.
In setup mode this
button is used to
select the next
parameter/menu
item.
DEL (ALL/
CLEAR)
The ALL button allows the selection of all programmed areas
at once for transmitting messages, gong or alarm signals,
vocal messages, or to assign programs. On time pressing
selects all areas. The corresponding green selection LEDs
and the ALL LED are lit. Subsequent pressing cancels
(clears) the selection.
Deletes the currently selected
parameter.
TALK This button activates a message for pre-selected areas or
groups. The TALK LED blinks when one or several areas are
busy or when an event with higher priority setting interrupts
the output message (see page 8 for details). The optional
toggle mode of the key is configured via IRIS-Net.
Confirms the
parameter change
or selects the highlighted menu item.
Selection buttons The 15 selection buttons with corresponding green / yellow
LEDs are used to pre-select areas or groups for the reproduction of messages, gong or alarm signals, vocal messages, or
to assign programs (pressed once = ON, subsequently
pressed = OFF). The LEDs indicate the momentary selection
status (also refer to page 8). It is also possible to assign special functions or no function at all (no function assigned) to the
selection buttons. Assigning functions is performed during the
configuration procedure via IRIS-Net.
Enter the corresponding number
of the key.

higher priority signals, the TALK LED will vastly blink and the calling attempt is ignored (also refer to the
description of indications).
The TALK LED lights during the transmission of an announcement. The TALK button has to be pressed
during the whole message.
The TALK LED blinks when one or several areas are busy or when an event with higher priority setting
interrupts the output message (see paragraph indications). In the latter, it is necessary to repeat the
message.
Until the user makes any changes, the defined selection stays memorized, even after releasing the TALK
button. Pressing the ALL/CLEAR button two times de-selects the entire selection.
Collective Call
The announcement is launched into all areas of the entire installation.
The procedure is similar to making a selective call. First, all areas of the installation are selected by
pressing the ALL/CLEAR button. Pressing the TALK button activates the collective call. During the
transmission of a call, all area and/or group LEDs as well as the ALL LED will light (also refer to page 8).
The TALK button has to be pressed down until the end of the announcement. BUSY LED indication is
equivalent to the selective call.
General Alarm
A general alarm signal is always transmitted to all lines of the entire installation.
Pressing the covered ALARM button launches the integrated alarm. The button lights during the
transmission of the alarm signal. The alarm has priority over any announcement or other event, except for
those that were ignited from the directing paging station.
Pressing the STOP key cancels the alarm.
NOTE:
The launch of an alarm does not depend on a paging console’s priority setting it had
been activated from. Launching an alarm is possible from any microphone terminal at
any time, even when the system is in stand-by mode. A running alarm is optically and
occasionally also acoustically indicated at every paging station.
Paging Console
Owner‘s Manual 13
Selective Alarm
A selective alarms allows to transmit alarm signals into selected lines.
Similar to the procedure for making a selective call you first have to select areas or groups to which the
alarm signal shall be transmitted. Afterwards, pressing the covered ALARM key starts the selective alarm.
The button lights during the transmission of an alarm. Already now, you are able to enter the lines for the
following alarm.
Pressing the STOP button cancels the alarm.
Canceling Signals
Pressing the STOP button cancels alarms, gong signals and text message transmissions. The functionality
of the STOP button (e.g. priority, local events) is configurable via IRIS-Net. Events can only be terminated
at the paging station they were launched from with the exception of the directing terminal (paging console
with the highest priority). Through the directing station it is possible to cancel any signal in progress.
System ON / OFF
The ON button switches a PROMATRIX 8000 system ON or OFF. Mostly, it is not intended that any paging
station be provided with the possibility to do so. Thus, this function can be programmed via IRIS-Net.
When the system is in stand-by mode, the ON LED is off. Pressing the ON button turns the PROMATRIX
8000 system’s power on which can take several seconds, while the ON LED is blinking. Once the system
is ready for operation, the ON LED lights continuously (which also applies for all paging stations of the
entire installation).
To switch the system OFF, you have to press the ON button for approximately 3 second. This is to prevent
inadvertently turning off the system.
Pressing an ALARM button or igniting an alarm sequence at external terminals automatically switches the
PROMATRIX 8000 system’s power on and boots the system.
Program Assignment
Activating this feature during the PC-configuration procedure allows the assignment of programs to
individual areas and groups of the entire installation during the PC-configuration procedure.
1. Set the paging station to program assign mode by pressing the PROGRAM button.
2. Select the program by pressing the n
or p key.
NOTE:
The launch of an alarm does not depend on a paging console’s priority setting it had
been activated from. Launching an alarm is possible from any microphone terminal at
any time, even when the system is in stand-by mode. A running alarm is optically and
occasionally also acoustically indicated at every paging station.
Paging Console
14 Owner‘s Manual
The second line of the LC-display indicates the description of the programs, as they were definied
during configuration via IRIS-Net.
3. Pressing a single or several selection buttons assigns the outputted program (background music) to
the selected areas and groups. If the yellow LED of a selection key lights, the program can not be
assigned to this area or group.
4. In order to leave the program-assign mode press the ESC button several times till the operation mode
of the paging console is reached.
It is also automatically canceled after approximately 15 seconds.
Special Functions
Generally, assigning a function to each selection key is possible. This allows utilizing a paging station to
control the lighting, door openers, blinds, etc.; even controlling volume settings is possible through the use
of the n
or p buttons. When shipped, there are no special functions assigned.
3.3 Paging Console Configuration in Setup mode
Configuring paging consoles is preferably performed on the central unit via computer and using the IRISNet software. This represents the most convenient way without any limitation, while a paging terminal itself
offers only limited programming ability. For configuring the paging console via its LC-display the paging
console has to be switched to setup mode as described in following section.
Using the setup mode

programs is possible in any way.
