Visual indication of Audio Activity

Local mute is a common PA function where one or more speakers are disconnected when a specific access panel is used. This is commonly used when there are a high probablity of feedback.

To assign the function Local Mute to an Control Output:

  1. In Components view, open Output Actions
  2. In System, identify the Controller, the Amplifier or the Access Panel to be used, and expand to Device > Control Outputs.
  3. Drag Local Mute to the Control Output you want to use.

Audio Activity configuration

Audio activity configured for local mute

Image shows how Control output 1 should trigger when "ECPIR-3P A1" is used in Zone 1. This implies that the access panel is placed in an area covered by zone 1. If the access panel sends Live speech into zone 1 the function will trigger, but if it sends the live speech to any other zone it will not trigger. Other activity, such as message control or similar will not trigger this activity as the source must be the access panel itself.

Note that the live speech needs to have a priority inside the priority range. Setting the priority range to 1-100 will ensure that it will always trigger.
