Emergency Audio Signal
To prepare for an emergency, connect an Emergency Evacuation Message (EEM) audio signal to Input 2. The
block connector provides a 'normally-open' switch that when closed, distributes the emergency signal to the loud-
speakers and all input and output connections.
Important: When the switch is used for Input 2, the EEM audio signal bypasses the volume and on/off settings.
Control the volume of the EEM signal at the source output.
1. Connect the EEM signal to Input 2.
2. Connect a switch to the block connector.
3. Close the switch and test the audio signal. Adjust the volume at the audio source to the desired level.

Microphone Operation Modes
The operation mode determines how participant microphones function during a meeting. Several factors may af-
fect the meeting requirements and the manner in which the meeting is run: room size, number of participants, for-
mality of the event, and amount of technical support on staff. The operation mode addresses these factors with
four presets to control the microphone behavior.
To change the mode:
