Chimes

This article describe how to upload chimes to the Exigo Controller.
Audio events in Exigo can play a chime signal in front of the audio.
Different chimes can be used to indicate the importance of a message.

The Chimes must be in .wav format, and the following codecs are supported::

• PCM files at 16kHz samplerate (linear 16bit), mono (1 channel)
• MS ADPCM at 16kHz samplerate, mono (1 channel)
• IMA ADPCM at 16kHz samplerate, mono (1 channel)

A guide on how to generate .wav files can be found here.

• A total of up to 10 Mbyte of customized .wav-files can be uploaded in the controller.
  • Uncompressed PCM will give approx. 5 minutes (320 seconds).
  • Using MS ADPCM will give approx. 21 minutes (1280 seconds) (MS ADPCM can be used for speech).
• Maximum 99 chimes.

Upload Audio To The Controller

The Chimes are uploaded via the web interface of the Primary System Controller PSC:

• Log in to the Primary System Controller. Default username: admin and password: alphaadmin.
• Navigate to System Configuration > Messaging.
