The Alarm Console lets you manually speak or play a sound at a remote Symphony server installation. This is useful when manually responding to an alarm event in real-time, where you may wish to ward off trespassers.
To access the Alarm Console:
• From the Server menu, select Alarms Console.

Description |
Speak over Loud Speaker |
You can enter text that will be played at the remote location. The master list is a text file that contains different spoken strings, and it appears in the This is private property field. This content is specific to each installed Symphony Client. If you have multiple people connecting to the Symphony server from different locations, they will each have their own list of things that they can say. |
Say it |
After entering new text in the Speak over Loud Speaker drop-down box, or selecting existing phrases from the drop-down box, click Say it to play the text at the remote location. Symphony converts the text string into voice at the remote site. |
Add to master list |
You can add text to the master list, which will be available as an option in the Speak over Loud Speaker drop-down list for future use. |
Remove from master list |
You can remove stored text from the master list. |
Add a .wav file from your computer to Symphony |
Upload a .wav file from your local PC to the Symphony Server. |
Play Sound |
Symphony will play the sound you have selected in the Play Sound field. |
Remove selected .wav from Symphony |

Relays |
It may be useful to manually turn a relay on or off. A siren or other audible alarm can be connected to Relay inputs or outputs, or doors could be opened or closed by triggering a relay. Select the Device and Relay# (number) of the device and click On to turn on the relay or Off to turn off. |
