The MAP series processors can internally store up to 5 voice messages or melodies.

The messages should be of a maximum length of 16 seconds each and their most common use is in alarm and evacuation systems, caution and danger notices, as well as to include corporate or welcome short messages.

The system only accepts speech files with the following properties: file type pcm, extension .wav, sample rate 22,050 samples per second and type mono. You must use a format converter of your choice to adapt the existing file to the required properties. Files longer than 16 seconds will be truncated to the maximum length allowed.

By checking the Repeat box the selected voice message will be played continuously in a loop.

OUTPUT: Messages will be always played on input channel 12 . This channel can be used simultaneously for other external sources, always taking into account that the gain adjustment will be unique for the mix of both signals adjusted by the input channel 12 fader. The message signal does not pass through the preamp and is always kept at unity gain. Check 8. Blocks Diagram.

ACTIVATING VOICE MESSAGES: Voice messages can be triggered by various stimuli:

• Manually from the Voice Message Panel menu option, pressing the Play key.
• Externally from one of the GPIO logical connections. Check 7.2.4.5. Gpios .
• At a specific time/day by configuring it through the Scheduled Tasks window. Check 7.2.4.6. Scheduled Tasks.
• From remote controls REM-2 or infrared IR-02. Ver 7.2.4.7. Remote Controls.
