features and capabilities to perform scheduler tasks and audio playback.
It is now based on web technology, which provide a more convenient way for user to manage the unit. Accessing the unit shall
be via web browser and hosts of activities can be carried out such as schedule changes, uploading audio files and so on.
One major changes is the schedule - audio playback, which was not available earlier. With this feature, external media player (
or message player ) shall not be required, thus a great savings in installation costs. PT1801 MK II is now compatible with
Amperes iPX Ethernet Paging System, which would allow the unit to broadcast message directly to the IP Client.
Installation and configuration of this device is not difficult, but we suggest that you go through the manual in order to reap the
best it can offer.
