NOTE: WAV files reside in the touchpanel's Flash memory and will affect the
amount of available space for touchpanel screens.
Sound Manager
NOTE: If keyclick is enabled on a touchpanel, each press of the touchpanel results
in an audible click. It may be desirable to conceal the keyclick sound for certain
buttons (e.g., if the button triggers playing of a WAV file). Using VT Pro-e, the
panel designer has the option to suppress the keyclick on a button-by-button basis
from the "Button Properties" window. A button must have a page flip or a join
number other than "0" assigned for it to click.
Crestron VT Pro-e (version 2.1.0 and later) contains an audio tool, Sound Manager,
which permits the panel designer to attach WAV files to a touchpanel project. Sound
Manager is available from the Tools pull-down menu and opens the "Sound
Manager" window, shown after this paragraph.

Sound Manager Guidelines
There are three things to keep in mind when using Sound Manager.
1. Each WAV file must be assigned a unique digital join number. The join
number options include none, keyclick, or a number (1 through 4000).
The default is none. If the keyclick option is selected, this WAV file
becomes the default keyclick sound for all buttons. The other WAV
files can be played by having the SIMPL Windows program assert the
feedback side of the assigned join number.
2. Each WAV file must have the correct audio format and attributes for
the TPS-4000L target type selected in VT Pro-e. The correct audio
format is PCM, 8KHz, mono, 8 bit.
3. There are three system-wide join numbers that the designer can define.
The first, sound playing from panel, differs from the other two in that it
is triggered from the panel.
a. Sound Playing from Panel – The signal for this join number goes
high when the WAV file plays.
