Advanced Audio Program Control
The Advanced Audio Program feature is used to distribute background music from external radios, MP3 players, etc. to loudspeaker zone(s).
The background music can be turned on or off from an Access Panel (DAK key) or from a Control Input.
The difference between the Audio Program Control and the Advanced Audio Program Control is that with the Advanced Audio Program Control it is possible to step between several external audio sources.

Connection of Audio Program Source
An analog audio source can be connected to Line-In of the following devices:
- ESC System Controller
- ENA Amplifier
- TFIE Kit
It is also possible to use the optional AGA Board.
Assigning an Audio Program Source to a Line Input
An Audio Line Input can be used for several purposes, and Audio Program is one of them. From the EMT tool, you must dedicate a Line Input for Audio Program distribution:
- In Components view, open External Connections
- In System, identify the Controller, the Amplifier or the TKIE kit to be used as Audio Program source, and expand to Audio Lines > Line Input
- Drag Audio Program Source to the Line Input
- A dialog box appears - select the Audio Program channel number. If there are several audio program sources, you would normally start with program 1 and so on.
Program Sequences
Before assigning advanced audio program to DAK(s) one or more Program Sequence must be defined.
Program Sequences editing is done in EMT:
- System -> Program Sequence
