Routing Digital Voice Messages (DVA Routing Buttons)

The 'DVA Routing' button function enables simple control of a single broadcast route, or complex broadcasts
to be set up. For instance when a button is pressed a route can be made that connects any desired
combination of audio inputs to any combination of outputs. Audio inputs are typically DVAs, however other
types of inputs such as microphone and background music can also be routed.
An example of this is a button programmed to cause an EVACUATE message to be broadcast in one zone,
and simultaneously cause an ALERT message to be broadcast to adjacent zones, while all remaining zones
are unaffected. Another example would be a set of 'DVA Routing' buttons which controls background music
broadcast to selected zones in the system.
•
'DVA Routing' buttons are only supported on microphones connected to VAR Router's
Mic/Line inputs 1 or 2.
•
'DVA Routing' buttons are not fully operational when the standard SMC02 units are
operating in All Call Only failsafe override mode.

If the red BUSY LED against any zone button is
illuminated
announcement is already in progress on the system. The
operator can however still go ahead with the broadcast if
it is not important for the broadcast to definitely be heard
in the affected zone or zones. It is possible that the other
audio source could be of lower priority, and therefore be
overridden by the SMC02 microphone, however it is not
good practice to routinely override other announcements
in general day to day usage.
