keys

Above is a description of the various buttons on the front of the Unity LCD Console. Each softkey corresponds to the tab shown directly above it in the display. Similarly, the compass keys correspond to the associated arrow indicators shown in the display. For instance, in this particular screen, the left and right compass keys would move the Icon Wheel to the left or right accordingly.

To navigate throughout the Unity System, from the main screen shown above, use the Left and Right compass keys to spin the icon wheel, and then use the Talk/Select button to choose the desired function. Alternatively, use the softkeys to choose the shortcut to the desired function. The Home softkey will always bring the Unity system back to this main screen. Pressing the Home key a second time will center the Icon Wheel on the Intercom icon. The power button will put the current display into standby mode. The display will be automatically activate if it is ever the target of an intercom call (including an ALL call and/or Door Event). To prevent this, place the unit in standby then press the mute button.

The following is a list of walkthroughs on using each function of the Unity system.

Basics

As indicated on the display, the Up and Down compass keys will move the highlight box. To call an intercom unit, highlight that unit, then press and hold the Talk/Select button. The Unity Intercom is a ‘press and hold’ intercom. This means to make an intercom call, the Talk/Select button must be HELD when talking TO the highlighted unit. When the Talk/Select button is released, the highlighted unit will have a number of seconds (15 seconds by default, but adjustable in Settings -> Intercom) to respond in what is called ‘talk hands free’ mode. During this mode, the unit being CALLED may respond to the CALLER without any specific intercom interaction. After talk hands free mode times out, the intercom will return to the state it was in upon entering the intercom screen. An audible tone will sound to indicate the transition between the states mentioned above. A typical intercom conversation will go as follows:

• User presses (and holds) Talk/Select

• A tone sounds to indicate it is OK to start talking

• User talks TO selected unit

• User releases Talk/Select

• A tone sounds to indicate transition to ‘talk hands free’ mode

• Selected unit has some number of seconds (15 seconds default) to talk BACK to

caller

• A tone sounds to indicate end of conversation

Monitor

Pressing softkey 3 will place the unit into monitor mode. When a unit is in monitor all other units on the system will be able to hear it.

Send Message

Pressing softkey 4 from the intercom menu will open the messaging menu.

From this menu, messages may be sent to one, many, or all other intercom units. For full information on sending messages, please refer to the Using Messages section of the Unity Users Guide.

2.Using the Player

Clicking Songs will display a list of all songs cataloged by the Unity system. Clicking on an individual song will play that song and direct the display to the Now Playing screen.

At any time (i.e. in any Player sub menu), softkey 3 will open up an alphabetic search window. The cursor keys and talk/select button operate the mini keypad. The search is incremental, meaning that any letter that is input will further narrow the search. To close the box, press softkey 3 again. The alphabetic search box will ONLY search in the current sub menu. For example, if the current sub menu is Songs, the alphabetic search box will narrow down the Songs list based on the characters input. If the current sub menu is Artists, only the Artist list will be narrowed down. It will still be necessary to select an artist to view Albums and Songs by that Artist.
