  • Alphacom/SIP connection link can be monitored by Exigo
  • Alphacom/SIP stations can start and control any pre-configured audio activity in Exigo
  • Exigo can send audio to Alphacom stations or groups
  • Exigo can send audio via the SIP trunk to SIP stations
  • Outgoing calls will have a priority translation from Exigo to standard SIP priorities.
  • Control outputs can be triggered by incoming calls from the Alphacom/SIP system.
  • For details about Alphacom integration, see our wiki article.
  • For details about the SIP integration, see our wiki article.

IP speaker support (AL-52, AL-53)

  • Exigo supports 200 IP speakers
  • IP speakers are now a separate device in EMT

New Functionality

Turbine Extended kit support (AL-83)

  • The Turbine Extended kit (TKIE-1/2) is now fully supported and can be configured in EMT.

Flowire Monitoring (AL-1306)

  • For details, see our wiki article.

Auto mute function (AL-1372, AL-1823)

IP speakers and all other audio channels can be configured to be digitally muted based on activity in the system

Multiple escalation functions for each function added (AL-1960)

Adjustable timeout for Recall, Record (AL-1064)

Remote activation of microphones (AL-2734)

ENA Line monitoring: Optional detailed reporting (AL-2592)

By default, the system reports both “Open” and “Shorted” as “Line Fault”. It is now possible to choose detailed reporting for “Open” and “Shorted”.

ENA Line monitoring: Suspend monitoring during alarms (AL-1388)

Amplifiers with high load can generate false load faults during GA. Suspend monitoring will pause monitoring during the alarm to prevent such faults.

System configuration

EMT: Remote device configuration (AL-1761)

Remote device configuration is implemented in EMT under Operation panel. This allows configuration of basic device settings such as IP settings and directory number from EMT.

EMT: Selectable “missing device” reporting (AL-326, AL-1251)

Devices can now be configured to be reported as missing in either A, B or both controllers.

EMT Wizard: Advanced settings pane (AL-773, AL-1767)

In the EMT Wizard, the user can now configure global settings in an advanced settings pane. Including:

  • Monitoring of ETH1 or ETH2 on/off for all rack devices and access panels
  • AC monitoring on/off for all rack devices
  • DC monitoring on/off for all rack devices
  • "Enable SSH" flag is moved from the Default Configuration page to the Firewall Setting group in the Advanced Settings
  • The Firewall Settings group also have an option to enable the SNMP port

EMT: Option to add multiple devices (AL-2003)

It is possible to add multiple devices to a database with only one drag&drop operation. When selecting a device in the Components pane, there is an option to select how many devices will be added.
If the database is an AB system, and paired devices are selected, then the Add Multiple devices option will add the selected number of pairs to the database.

EMT: Possible to drop new devices in the entire system pane (AL-1968)

EMT: Drag and drop multiple devices to zones (AL-1903)

It is now possible to drag and drop multiple devices to a zone. Use Shift and/or Ctrl keys to select multiple devices before dragging the selected devices to a zone.

=== EMT: Allow installation of two EMT versions (AL-2502) It is now possible to have one EMT version 1.2, and one version 1.3, installed simultaneously.

EMT: Backup of database (AL-2504, AL-229)

When opening a project, EMT will check what EMT version the project was created with, and if different from the current version, a backup file (.zip) will be created.
The backup file will be named <ProjectName>_<CreatedInVersion>.zip. The backup file will be saved in a \backup directory inside the project directory.
The creation of the backup file goes silently without notification to the user, unless the backup file of some reason cannot be created.
It is also possible to create a backup file manually.

EMT: Restore overwritten project on Fail (AL-1349)

The database is restored if an error occurs when creating a new database and the "Overwrite existing..." flag is checked.

EMT: Indication that a DAK/CI is configured (AL-1278)

It is now indicated in the device structure tree in EMT, whether a DAK or CI is configured, to make it easier to find available DAKs/CIs.

EMT: Dragging input function onto base-CI autogenerates Start/Stop (AL-1298)

Dragging an input function into the base button/CI will auto generate a start/stop pair with the correct settings.

EMT: Line measurement: priority and name change (AL-1326)

On Audio Activity output action, the Audio Type “Line Test” is changed to “Line Measurement” and default priority range is changed to 1-100.

EMT: Monitoring Mode is default OFF in EMT if no LET or SLM monitoring is selected (AL-1749)

EMT: No longer possible to add a Zone to another Zone (AL-1429, AL-2236)

EMT: SNMP MIB settings on devices (AL-1201)

  • Allows custom Sysname, Syslocation and Syscontact to be configured in EMT (not available for PSC)

EMT: IPs of devices reported into ZAP (AL-525)

  • When a GET is done on a system IP addresses of all devices will be included

EMT: Possible to "Open File Location" when right clicking a project

EMT: Improved error codes on transfer (AL-1049)

EMT: Remove toggle functionality on Control Input on rack devices in AB systems (AL-2000)

EMT: Line Voltage setting in ENA B follows setting in ENA A (AL-2253)

EMT: Upper limit of channels and line output volume set to +2 dB in EMT (AL-2449, AL-2146)

Volume can be adjusted from +2 to -40 dB (AL-2146)


Usability

Adjustments to device web page (AL-1877, AL-1688)

  • Web page on devices simplified as all settings are done through EMT.

Warning generated if line monitoring is enabled and line is not calibrated (AL-1994)

Multicast works for ENA without default gateway configured (AL-514)

Directory number and display text in AlphaWeb (AL-840)

  • Directory number is now the same as is typed in “Main Settings”, and Display Text is the same as Display Name in EMT.

Fault messages on SLM faults: Values PVSM, PSCM, PSPM, GFM are removed from fault report (AL-2187)

  • Removed from main fault message. These can still be found by the operator in the audio monitoring sub menu.

Fault “Port x disconnected” renamed “Ethernet port x disconnected” (AL-1104)

Default audio volume set to 0 dB (AL-1694)

GUI change to network icon (AL-1535)

  • Network icon in GUI changed to indicate status of connection to PSC in A or B system.

Issues Resolved

  • Assign to A or B no longer requires new IP configuration and reboot of target (AL-1554)
  • Cannot remove "Timeout" option from a Call Escalation DAK without rebooting (AL-2458)
  • Adding a new non-existing panel to the system will only report "missing device" in Controller A (AL-2585)
  • Live Speech from DAK with "Wait for PTT" and "Timeout" starts timer from when DAK is pressed, not when PTT is pressed (AL-2197)
  • Live Speech toggle from DAK with “Wait for PTT” is not possible to deactivate during the 5 second ”wait for PTT” period (AL-2198)
  • ECPIR-3P behaved as registered after being removed from system configuration for up to 5 minutes. (AL-2177)
  • TKIS-2: Audio feedback on recall does not work (AL-1166)
  • Adding devices to database with two or more "old" directory numbers only allows selecting the oldest (AL-1485)
  • Should be able to “Get Database” from B controller if A controller is not responsive (AL-1352)
  • Altering between parallel/non-parallel wired CIs gives short loss of network and “missing device” report (AL-1672)
  • Not possible to use more that the first NTP server listed in EMT (AL-1671)
  • Call Escalation: Red LED hangs if escalated call queues recall (AL-2283)
  • Call Escalation: Red LED hangs if escalated recall, control DAK is pushed without recorded message (AL-2285)
  • System limitations: High priority audio events will be prioritized if audio resources limitations is met.

Known Issues (MTN-numbers in brackets are used for internal references)

CRM-V Access Panels

  • Only zone select, audio program, alarm control, message control and live speech is supported.

CRM-V Access panel: Clicknoise from microphone (MTN-1145)

  • On CRM-V a clicknoise generated by handheld microphones can be heard on the PA system. This happens due to the reduced delay in the Exigo system

Workaround: None.
