</div></span>

[[File:AXSetupVoume.jpg|frameless|right|600px]]
Tap Settings on the Home screen then tap Volume on the Settings menu.

This screen configures the default volume levels. Changes made on other screens or scheduled events are temporary, and the system will return to these default settings you '''save'''. Zones A and B are the two outside speaker channels.

The monitor level adjustments affect both the front panel speakers as well as the output connections that may be made to your PA system or other inside speakers.

=== Front speaker ===
The inside speaker button in the tool bar is always functional but here you will set your default choice. Toggle the button to your preferred default, Mute, Low (Platinum only) or On. These settings do not affect the rear panel inside output levels.

=== Zone volume ===
Bravo and Millennium systems provide two simple Inside and Outside volume controls

The Platinum Inside and Outside volume control sections have Mixer switches.
;Stereo
: Stereo setting disables opposite channels and their controls are grayed out and minimized for maximum channel separation.
;Mix
: Mix allows Left and Right signals to be proportionally mixed into each output zone.

When adjusting the level of outside speakers, make small incremental adjustments and walk around outside while the system is playing. The system often sounds much louder after you walk some distance from the building.

=== Save or Exit ===
Tap the Save button at lower right to save your changes. Or, tap the Toolbar back button or Home button for making temporary changes that will revert to the saved default when the system next wakes from standby.

=== Recommended levels ===
These levels depend on amplifier sensitivity and gain adjustments. Chime Master inSpire amplifiers and sound packages are assumed below.

* Level 1 should be safe enough to be in the tower with the speakers for testing after installation.
* Levels 2-3 are suitable for night ringing, if required
* Levels 4-6 are reasonably loud for most neighborhoods if the speakers are open (not behind tower louvers).
* Levels 7-9 may be needed for noisy environments and towers with heavy louvers (less than 40% open).
* Level 10 and above should only be used for short length Mono and Simple music to avoid:
: Speaker overdrive distortion
: Triggering amplifier protection modes (occasional sound drop outs)

Tap Schedule on the Home screen then Time Strike.

[[File:TimeStrike_AX1.2.jpg|frameless|right|600px]]
Each time you enter this screen, the current time strike schedule will be displayed. Green hours will sound and gray hours are quiet. If a time strike schedule has not yet been defined, the ALL tab will be selected and no hours will be turned on.

When you are finished making changes, tap Save to Schedule. You may exit this screen without saving changes by tapping the home button.
=== Schedule ===
When the ALL tab is selected, you can create one ringing schedule for all seven days. To make a unique schedule, choose that specific day. Once there is a difference between days, ALL cannot be selected until all days are cleared again. If most of your days have the same or similar ringing schedules, it's best to schedule ALL first, then edit any day as necessary.

You may tap any hour to select or deselect. Use the red 9a to 9p button to specifically select or deselect this block of time. The red All/Clear button will select or deselect all 24 hours.

To disable clock chiming, tap the Clear All Days button, then tap Save to Schedule.

=== Select Quarters ===
Once you have set your ringing schedule, you can move on to how you want your quarter hours to sound. Tapping the Quarters button cycles through the following selections:

;Top Only
: Rings the top of the hour only
;Top and Half
: Adds the half hour between consecutive active hours
;Full Quarters
: Adds all four quarter hours between consecutive active hours

When hours are turned off in the middle of the ringing schedule, only the last enabled hour before the gap and the next enabled hour after the gap will ring at the top of the hour, with no quarters ringing in between.

=== Select Style ===
Choose how you want the bells to sound by tapping the Top Style and Other Quarters Style buttons to select the ringing style. The other quarters button is available only when the half-hour or full selection is made on the Quarters button.
;Melody (musical note icon)
:Will play the selected chime melody before tolling the top of the hour
:Will play the selected chime melody instead of a single toll on other quarters
;Toll (hammer icon)
:Will toll the number of the hour at the top
:Will toll one time on other quarters

=== Select Melody ===

If you selected Melody, choose your [[Time Strike Melody]] using the selection bar. The default option, Westminster Clock Chime, is most common. Twelve other options are supplied with the Platinum AX at this time. If you have recorded your own custom clock chime it will appear in the list. For information on naming your own melody, see Custom clock chime melodies section below.

You may audition the different melodies using the [[Play_Selection_AX|Play Selection menu]] from the home screen. To find and play chime strike melodies, choose ''Show All Categories'', and search for Clock Chime.

== Custom clock chime melodies ==
<span class="crumbs"><div style="font-size:84%">
'''[https://ezbells.com/brc0 Custom clock chime video]'''
</div></span>

For the system to include your custom melodies in the Time Strike settings, you need to record, using your keyboard, four chime recordings. These four recordings need to be titled as follows where (Name) is the common name of your chime.

If your time strike sequence is fairly simple, you can also use the Premium [[Using_Chime.Center#Custom_ringing|Chime.Center custom ringing page]] to specify the chime's ringing patterns. Use the same method described to title your patterns.

;Recording title for the top of the hour (00 minutes)
:"(Name) Clock Chime"
;Recording title for the half hour (30 minutes)
:"(Name) Half Hour"
;Recording title for the first quarter (15 minutes)
:(Name) First Quarter"
;Recording title for the third quarter (45 minutes)
:(Name) Third Quarter"

Even if you don't ring them, all four quarters must have a recording named exactly in this way. Consider using a tolling instrument for recording clock chimes so that they sound like the hour strike bell.

In this menu you can review, edit or delete any of the events in your schedule. To clear the schedule, you must go to the Settings menu.

Please allow at least five minutes after making changes to the schedule for events to appear in the Upcoming Selections timeline. The system waits to be sure that you have finished working on the schedule to refresh Almanac music and other events for the coming week. Schedule changes will result in scheduled Almanac concerts to play different songs than appeared before modifications, even if those times were not changed.

[[File:ScheduleMenu.jpg|frameless|right|600px]]

== Scheduling basics ==
The scheduling screens for Weekly, Monthly, Annual and One Time events are for adding new events to these schedules. Use the Schedule Review screen to see what is programmed already.

=== Schedule musical concerts ===
* For regular musical concerts, use '''Schedule - Weekly Event'''. Choose the number of songs to play from [[SmartAlmanac_AX|SmartAlmanac]] selected music.
* To play a person's favorite hymn on their birthday, use '''Schedule - Annual Event'''. Search for the title after selecting ''Play specific music''.

=== Schedule ringing ===
* Schedule a swinging bell to ring at a service time, use '''Schedule - Weekly Event'''. Select ''Play Specific Music or Ringing'' and then search for ''swing''. Choose a bell and duration from the list before adding it to your service times.
* Time strikes. Always use the '''Schedule - Time Strike''' menu to create, modify and review your time strike schedule.
* Angelus and prayer bells. Always use the '''Schedule - Angelus''' menu to create, modify and review your Angelus schedule.
After you have modified your schedule, the system will wait for a pause in user activity and finish playing anything it is supposed to do before applying the schedule changes. During the schedule processing, the status icon at the top right of the screen will display gears. It will choose Almanac music to fit the modified schedule for the next ten days. Wait for the gears to disappear before reviewing.

== Screen features ==
The following elements will be found on each of the scheduling screens:

; Clock hands
: To set the time of the event, you may tap or drag the hands of the clock or tap the number and choose from a drop-down menu.
; Begin/End switch
: Determine if the programmed time is the beginning or ending time for the event.
; Calendar (on annual and one time events)
: Choose the date the event is to occur

The scheduling system will warn you if you have chosen late night or early morning times so you can make AM/PM corrections if needed.

=== Music selection ===
Make your choice of music using one of the following methods.

; Almanac Selected Music Mode
: Turning this on disables the title picker because the system will play seasonally appropriate music using the SmartAlmanac.
; Title picker
: Type any part of the selection to search the library then select a song from the results.
; Duration
: Choose the duration (approximate) in minutes or the number of songs to play.

=== Event List ===
The window on the right accumulates the list of times and programs you have selected. It does not display any existing schedule previously created and saved.

Tap Add Selection and your new event will be added to the list. You may add multiple events to the list by changing the date, time, or selection and tapping Add Selection. Tap Save to Schedule to add this list to the automatic schedule.

If you add multiple events to one time or add an event(s) to a time that already has something scheduled, they will play in the order they were added. Time strike and Angelus ringing take precedence over and will always play before music.

== Scheduling screens ==
These screens do not show you what is already programmed. Review your existing schedule using the review screens below.
=== One Time & Annual ===
Schedule an annual event. This is often used to schedule memorial music, such as, a person's favorite hymn to be played every year on their birthday. Make a one time event to provide music for a unique, non-repeating occurrence such as a wedding or a funeral, by entering the year.

=== Weekly ===
Schedule a weekly event to schedule music on a regular weekly basis like, daily or each Sunday.

=== Monthly ===
Schedule a monthly event to schedule music on a regular monthly basis like the first Sunday of each month.

== Review and configuration screens ==
Time strikes and Angelus prayer bell ringing schedules can be checked and modified using the following screens. Other scheduled events can be reviewed with the Schedule Review screen.

=== [[Time_Strike_AX|Time Strike]] (weekly) ===
Review and modify clock chiming and hour strikes:
* Select active hours
* Select odd quarters and type of ringing
* Select clock chiming melody

=== Angelus ===
Schedule and configure prayer bell ringing.
* Select first pattern
* Select second pattern, toll or swinging bells
* Select days and hours to ring

=== Review the schedule ===
Tap Schedule and Review.

: '''Review''' - Displays events that have been scheduled weekly, monthly, annual or one-time. This is the best way to see the outline of your program and what will play on a recurring schedule. Events can be deleted from this menu.
: '''Upcoming''' - Displays exactly what will play from your automatic schedule for the rest of the day today and tomorrow. This includes weekly, monthly, annual and one-time events, time strikes and any scheduled Angelus or call to worship. If you have chosen Almanac Selected Music, the titles will be specified in these two tabs. If you have scheduled more than one selection starting or ending at the same time, those will be assigned to specific minutes to play in the order they were added.
: '''Played''' - Displays exactly what has played on your ringing system, with the most recent at the top.

;IMPORTANT
:Chime Master often sets up and programs systems prior to shipment, according to the needs of the client.
:Read this section to avoid losing your settings.
==== Reviewing the schedule ====
To review such a schedule or check to see if your system does not have a schedule, bring up the Schedule Review screen:
* Tap the Schedule button.
* Tap the Review button.

If there are no events scheduled, the screen will report "Nothing is scheduled."

==== Use the Guided Setup ====
This installation setup will step you through a questionnaire about your denominational traditions that will inform how the SmartAlmanac™ chooses music throughout the liturgical year.

* Login or tap the Home icon at the top of the screen.
* Tap the Settings button on the Home screen then Clear Almanac on the settings screen. Next you will have three options,
** Factory Reset - clears everything and starts over with a fresh system
** Clear Almanac Only - leaves your schedule intact, but allows you to setup seasonal preferences and denominational music
** Cancel - allows you to exit without clearing or changing anything.

Each screen of the guided setup questionnaire features a blue Information button that explains your choices in detail. All of the choices you make may be adjusted later using the menus listed below.

=== Front panel controls ===

==== Lighted power button ====
When power is restored to the system, it will power on after a delay to test the line voltage. The power light will blink green while the system is initializing. It will turn solid gold when the system is ready. There are four gestures you can make on the button.

;Single-Click ''Display on/brightness''
: wakes up the backlight for the touch screen and adjusts the brightness
;Double-click ''Stop playing''
: cancels any concert or ringing in progress (light momentarily turns red)
;Press and hold for 1 second ''System shutdown''
: cancels concerts and waits to be sure you want to initiate Shut Down (light turns red, then blinks magenta).
: If the button is not clicked again while blinking magenta, Shut down process will begin (light blinks blue).
: Always shut down in this way before unplugging the power cord.
: Wait until the button is solid blue before unplugging from AC power.
; Clicking when the button is solid blue will restart the system.
: If you unplugged the power cord, the system will restart automatically when plugged back in.

During software update installation, the power button's light will alternate between red and magenta. A screen should also be displayed that the update installation is in progress. Do not remove power or attempt to shut down the system during this period.

Systems shipped before April of 2022 do not indicate an update install is in progress. During the update process, older systems power light remains gold and the display becomes dark and unresponsive. Please allow at least 30 minutes for the system to complete the installation and restart on its own before you attempt to revive it by cycling power.

==== Touch screen ====

* A single, light tap with your finger or the soft end of the supplied stylus is all that is required. Pressing on the display or using a pointed object will cause damage.
* After several minutes of inactivity, it is normal for the screen to dim, lock and eventually go completely dark to save power. As long as the status light is gold, scheduled events will play normally.

There are many advantages to having your ringing system connected to the internet.
* Continual time clock synchronization
* [[Remote_AX|Remote control]] experience is enhanced
* Advanced music, seasons and schedules using [[Using_Chime_Center|Chime Center]]
* Automatic software and security updates
== Check your connection ==
=== Login screen ===
You can tell if the system is connected to the Internet by checking the connection icon found on the PIN login screen at the top right corner, just below the system status icon. It will display one of the following states:
* Check mark on the globe - indicates the system has full Internet connectivity
* X mark on the globe - indicates the system is not able to reach the Chime Center server
* '''AP''' (no globe) - indicates the system is in Access Point (AP) mode for local remote control
** Turn on Access Point mode whenever you cannot connect the ringing system to the Internet, even if you do not need the local remote control. This will turn off Internet services so that errors resulting from these missing connections will not degrade your ringing system's performance.
=== Network settings screen ===
Connection status is shown at the top of the Network Settings screen. Possible messages are:
* Status: '''Connected to the Internet''' - System is connected to Chime.Center.
* Status: '''Connected to Local Network''' - System is available on the local network. It is likely that router or firewall settings for the network are not allowing connections to Chime.Center. Restart the system and if that does not help, check that all [[Network_setup_AX#Your_network|required outgoing ports]] are available.
* Status: '''Access Point Mode''' - System is in Access Point (AP) mode for local remote control.
* Status: '''Not Connected''' - System is not making connections to any network. Check cabling and if using antenna, retry WiFi setup.
=== System time ===
The system will not be able to properly negotiate connections with our servers if the ringing system's time is incorrect. Go the the Settings - Date and Time screen to verify the correct date, time and time zone. Make sure the switches for DST and Automatic Time Sync are on.

== Connection modes ==
[[File:NetworkSettings.jpg|right|550px]]

=== Wired Ethernet ===
A wired network will always provide the easiest and most reliable connection if you have it.
;Setup
* Connect an Ethernet cable from your router to the labeled jack on the back of the AX carillon. This will be recognized immediately.
* When a network address is displayed with a green check mark next to ''Ethernet network Connected'' you are connected.
* Make sure the Access point switch at the bottom of the screen is '''Normal''' and gray in color. If you change the Access Point mode the system must be restarted (see below).
* If you also have a green check mark and IP address under WiFi Networks, you should unplug the antenna from the rear USB port.

=== Wireless ===
These connections require the available wireless adapter antenna. Screw the two parts together and power down the ringing system before plugging in the antenna. Keep the system level while the antenna is plugged in, as tipping the system can cause damage to the antenna or port connection.

==== WiFi network ====
WiFi is trickier to set up, but has the advantage that it provides an air gap between the lightning prone outside components of your ringing system and your other wired network components.

[[File:Wifi.jpg|frameless|right|450px]]
* From the home page of the AX ringing system, choose Settings then Network. This page displays if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network.
* The Access Point Mode at the bottom of the screen should be set to '''Normal''' - gray when connecting to a WiFi network.
* If you have changed the Access Point mode, restart the system (see below).
* Tap on '''WiFi Networks''' and choose the one you want to connect to. Enter the WiFi password in the next box and tap Connect. It may take a couple of minutes.
* When the unit has successfully connected, it should update the Current WiFi Network and Wireless IP address.
* If you have trouble connecting with the wireless antenna we supply (password is not accepted):
** Your Router or Access point may be configured for WPA3 only. Please have your network administrator configure the WiFi network for mixed-mode WPA2+WPA3. The AX system does not currently support WPA3.
** A network bridge can be configured to connect your WiFi to the ringing system's Ethernet port. Your network administrator should be able to set this up for you. TP-Link makes a WPA3 compatible device, TL-WA1801 ([https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-TL-WA1801-Beamforming-Supports-Multi-SSID/dp/B0CNSCVXZN Amazon link]).

==== Access Point (no Internet) ====
Advanced eXperience ringing systems are designed to be connected to the Internet, but if none is available at your facility, the system can provide an ad-hoc local Access Point WiFi network to which you can connect your phone.

This means you can [[Remote_AX|remote control]] your ringing system when your phone is nearby.
* QR codes are different for remote controls that use the local connection from those that use Internet connection.
* Refer to the [[Remote_AX|Remote Control instructions]] for scanning multiple users and saving the app to you phones home screen.

===== Enable local remote access point =====

* While the Chime Master AX carillon is powered off, plug in the included wireless antenna into the top right USB port on the back, then restart the unit.
* From the home page, choose Settings then Network. At the top, you can view if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network (network address beside the appropriate IP label).
* Tap the Access Point switch near the bottom of the screen. When the '''Access Point switch is gold''' and an IP address appears beside ''Wireless IP'' you can exit the Network setup page and proceed.

Restart the system as described below. When the system restarts in AP mode, it will disable all Internet dependent services. This prevents internal connection errors and improves system performance.

* When you tap the lock page clock, the PIN login screen will indicate at top right that the system is in AP mode.
* Login and from the home page, tap the Remote button.
* After entering your PIN, the system will check its network connection status. You will be asked to connect your smart phone or other device to a password protected CMS WiFi. The SSID and Password will appear above the QR Code. After connecting your phone to the carillon's network, scan the QR code with your phone’s camera or QR reader. Tap the link which is provided from the QR code to open the '''Local Remote''' in your phone’s browser.

=== (Re-)Enable Internet features ===
If the system has an Internet Connection (using a network cable) and the wireless antenna is plugged in and the Access Point is left on, Internet features such as clock synchronization are disabled. Always turn off the Access Point when using a wired connection.
* From the home page, choose Settings then Network. At the top, you can view if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network (network address beside the appropriate IP label).
* Tap the Access Point switch in the lower left corner of the screen. When the '''Access Point switch is gray''' with an x on it, Internet features are enabled (after restart).
* Leave the WiFi antenna plugged in only if you are ''not'' connecting using an Ethernet cable.

Restart the system as described below. When the system starts with the Access Point switch set to '''Normal''', update, backup and other Chime Center remote features are enabled.

==== Verify connection and reset Remote ====
* When you tap the lock page clock, the PIN login screen will display the connection icon as described at the top of this page.
* Return to the home page, then tap the Remote button.
* After entering your PIN, the system will check its network connection status.
* Above the QR code the system will indicate that this code is for the Chime Center Remote.
* Make sure your phone has Internet access and scan the QR code with your phone’s camera or QR reader. Tap the link which is provided from the QR code to open the '''Chime Remote''' in your phone's browser.

=== Restart after changing modes ===
Restarting the system is required to change the Access Point mode:
* Press and hold the front panel lighted power button until it turns red. Release the button and it will begin to blink violet then blue.
* When the power button has stopped blinking and is solid blue, click it to restart the system.
* The light will blink green then turn solid gold for normal operation.

== Advanced settings ==
DHCP is the default setting that allows the system to obtain network information from your router and automatically attach to your network. Large campus installations may require the IT department to define how the system should be connected.

Open the Settings - Network page. The type of current connection will be displayed with a green check mark, along with the current IP address and interface mac address.

Tap the network connection you wish to change to static IP.

;WiFi
:Tap the Advanced Network Setup switch, re-enter the WiFi password and change IP settings to Static.
;Ethernet
:Tap the Advanced Network Setup switch.

Scroll down to enter the static IP to use, the Subnet (in CIDR bit count format without the slash), your gateway's IP, and your name server (DNS) IP. Tap Save and close the menu. It shouldn't be necessary, but a good idea to hold the lighted power button for five seconds to shut down the system. Click the button again when it is solid blue to restart.

== Internet access requirements ==
While connected only to your network (mobile data off), a test device (phone or PC) must be able to access
'''https://chime.center'''
'''https://sf.chime.center'''

* This site may need to be white-listed in firewall or DNS rules

=== Bandwidth ===
Typically you can expect around 50MB to 100MB per day (less than 3GB/month) of usage by the bell system, depending on the frequency of remote control and management usage.

== Security ==
AX ringing systems do not require static IP addresses or any special inbound port forwarding through your firewall. Chime Center's routing will make sure that only you have control of your bells. Best practices should be followed whenever connecting anything other than computers and printers to your network and the Internet. The following are a few suggestions that you should consider. The easiest are at the top and should be complied with first.

=== Ringing system ===
* [[User_profile_setup_AX|Change the default login PIN number]] for the login screen. Users who have (or guess) this code can use the front panel remote screen to authenticate remote access. You can use up to 10 digits.
* Use a strong password to login to Chime Center. Use a password manager to generate unique and strong passwords for each of your site logins. Never re-use your email password on other sites.
* Do not attempt to simultaneously use the wired Ethernet connection and the WiFi antenna connection. Make sure the Access Point is set to '''Normal''' (see above) if you are connected to a network. Necessary services are inhibited by the Access Point mode such as:
** Automatic clock synchronization
** Software updates
** Chime Center access
* Do not connect the ringing system directly to the Internet without a firewall (router based or dedicated).

=== Your network ===
No inbound ports need to be open on your firewall. Most router firewalls default to allow outgoing connections on all ports while blocking incoming connections.

In more secure facilities, outgoing connections may also be blocked to ports other than those needed for typical web browsing. Keep these outbound ports open for the ringing system:
* '''SSH 22''' (to *.sf.chime.center - remote tunnel for API and backups)
* '''TCP 443''' (to *.sf.chime.center - updates)
* '''TCP 7443''' (to *.chime.center - update systems with firmware < 1.4.20)
* '''UDP 123''' (time sync)

==== Issues with firewalls ====
'''Verizon''' router/modem firewalls often default to closing connections to port 22. Check if your security settings is set to maximum. If so, manually add SSH 22.

Chime Center does not support Deep Packet Inspection of SSH packets (DPI-SSH), typically encountered on '''SonicWall''' products. If your network must enable DPI-SSH (very rare circumstances), disable it for the ringing system's (static) IP or mac address to allow API tunneling. Otherwise, the chime.center server will detect your firewall as a man-in-the-middle attacker and drop the connection.

==== Best Practices ====
* Use a strong WiFi password on your router or access point.
* Test your firewall for unneeded open inbound ports. Gibson Research provides the [https://www.grc.com/shieldsup Shields Up!] tool. After clicking the Proceed button, click the All Service Ports button to begin testing.
* Have your IT personnel configure a [https://robpickering.com/ubiquiti-configure-micro-segmentation-for-iot-devices/ segmented VLAN or Internet-of-Things sub-network] for the ringing system and other appliances such as security cameras. [https://www.zdnet.com/article/fbi-recommends-that-you-keep-your-iot-devices-on-a-separate-network The FBI recommends] you do this at home as well.

:* Both the ringing system and browser accessing Chime.Center must have internet connections.
:* Up-to-date Internet browser (Chrome preferred) running on any device with an Internet web browser (larger screens preferred). This app will not work with Internet Explorer or older versions of Safari.

== Getting Started ==
=== Login ===
The Chime Master service department will email an invitation to the purchaser to join Chime.Center. Please provide a valid email address at the time of order for whom this person shall be. This invitation is unique to this person and has a time limitation of one week.

Click the link provided in the email to set up your account with your name and password. After you log in to [https://chime.center '''https://chime.center'''] using these credentials, you will be able to manage your system, including inviting others to join it.

We suggest using an up to date version of Chrome for best results. If clicking the link in the email launches your system default browser and it is out of date, copy the complete link and paste it in the address bar of Chrome.

Availability of features described below vary depending on
* Chime.Center subscription level
* AX system model features
* User privileges set by the system administrator

;Logout
: You will remain logged in with the browser you log in with until you explicitly log out using the top right button. Be certain to log out when accessing Chime.Center on a computer that is not your own.

If you forget to log out of a public computer, sign into Chime.Center and go to My Account using the top right button. Click, '''Logout Everywhere'''. To retain remote control app access without re-scanning the QR code, be sure to un-check '''Clear Remote Sessions''' before saving changes.

==== Login issues ====
Email addresses should be entered in all lower case. If you insert punctuation characters (generally stripped by email servers) when you set up your account, you must continue to use them on the login page.

If you forget your password, enter your email on the [https://chime.center/ax/#/lostpassword Password recovery page] and click the '''Send Reset Request''' button. If the email address you enter matches a registered user, a one-time-use reset token will be sent to that address allowing you to change your password.

=== Home ===
When you open Chime.Center, you will see your personalized Home Screen. All of the custom manual control buttons will be shown. These features can be activated from this screen the same way you would use them on the Remote App.
Setup and scheduling features that show as buttons on the front panel of the system are part of the Chime.Center menus.

== Featured menus ==
=== Music ===
==== Titles and Albums ====
* Player controls - Some of the music menus support auditioning of individual songs or albums.
** Play control buttons are at the top and next to each item: '''Next''' and '''Stop'''.
** Play status is shown at the top of the screen with the title of the title played or in progress.
** Beside listed items will be green '''Play''' or '''Shuffle''' buttons to audition the item.

;Play Selection Title
:Type any part of a title to search

:Select arrangement, available instruments and outside speaker status before pressing play

;Albums
[https://ezbells.com/cea0 '''Video - Manage Music Albums''']
:Chime Master has provided each Advanced eXperience system with a library of preset Albums. An album is a collection of selection titles. Each album has music that is appropriate for specific musical styles, seasons or occasions.

:In this menu, you can add, edit or delete albums from your system, as well as add and delete selections from existing albums. If you choose to delete an album or delete a selection from an album, you are not deleting any selections, either custom or prerecorded, from the system itself.

:There is no limit to the number of titles in an album. An album with only a few titles will sound repetitive unless other albums are included with it in a season of more than one day. You can always edit an album to add more titles or group it with other Albums for more variety.

:The Edit Album screen allows you to edit the name of the album. This does not rename the album, but instead creates a copy of the original album with the new name. The new album will not be included in seasons until you edit each season that needs it. You should also remove the original album to prevent duplicated music in the season.

;Selection Titles
:Show in Default Library - Determine whether the title will be displayed when you are searching in your Default Library.

:Allow in SmartAlmanac - Select if this title may play when the AX carillon chooses a SmartAlmanac selection. The title must be in an album that is linked to a season before it will play as an Almanac Selection.

==== Seasons ====
[https://ezbells.com/ccs0 '''Video - Manage Seasons''']

It is important to realize that nearly all of the options for season start and ending dates are much more easily accomplished by answering the simple questions on the installation [[Operate_AX_products#Use_the_Guided_Setup|guided setup]]. If you want to run the setup again, simply Clear Almanac from the Setup menu on the front panel of your system.

This Chime.Center feature is for those who wish to associate musical Albums they have customized with existing or new seasons.

:SmartAlmanac<sup>™</sup> Advanced eXperience provides lets you set-it-and-forget-it then enjoy always appropriate music year after year.

:With Chime.Center you can set beginning and ending dates for each music season, determine which albums play during a season and even create your own seasons.

:All Chime Master carillons come with a typical collection of seasons. The default albums and seasons are configured for you when you walk through your system's [[Operate_AX_products#Use_the_Guided_Setup|guided setup]] and answer the simple questions regarding your worship tradition. In most cases, you will then be happy with the settings you find here.

:''Non-Seasonal'' is the name of the Season containing albums that will play when no other season is active.

:A season can last as little as one day or can span several consecutive days. It can be set up for a holiday you celebrate that we have not already defined or anytime you want a different album to play. When your carillon changes seasons, your schedule does not change, but anywhere you have selected an Almanac Selection to play, it will choose from the Albums in the current season.

:The size and number of Albums you add to a season determines how repetitious the music will seem during that season. During an enabled Season that contains no Albums, nothing will play when Almanac Music is called for. Clock ringing, prayer bells and other events scheduled with specific selections will continue to play.
[[File:EditSeasonCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
:'''Season methods and dates'''
* Enable season - uncheck if you do not wish the season to take effect.
* Silent season - check if you want the season to suspend ''all'' scheduled events. You may continue to ring manually.
** If you wish to continue scheduled ringing without music, create a season with no musical albums in it. Events scheduled with Almanac music will not play any music during this special season.
* Begin/End methods
** Use same start and end times every year - uncheck to enter different dates for each year (Example: Easter which has all of the moving dates already set for you).
** Begin/End based on another Season's start date - check to enter a season rather than date (Example: Lent is based on Easter).

;Season Timeline
:Display beginning and ending dates for active seasons (enter a start date and number of days to look ahead). Each seasonal date will be displayed with its active season.

==== Custom ringing ====
Premium Chime.Center subscribers will find Custom Ringing on Chime.Center's Music menu. You can use this screen to customize existing factory supplied ringing or create your own.

There are three types of ringing functions which you can define or edit as described below. Tap '''Load Existing Ringing''' to make a copy or edit existing ringing functions (user or factory).

Name your file so you can find it later when scheduling or creating a home screen button for it. If you are creating a time strike chime melody, don't forget to create a pattern for each quarter and name them as described in the [[Time_Strike_AX#Custom_clock_chime_melodies|keyboard recording instructions]].

Digital audio bells are indicated with [[Bell_Weights_and_Sizes#By_Musical_Pitch|bell octave notation]] where A3 is a 1000 lb. bell.

If you have tower bells connected to your system, check the '''Use Tower Bell(s)''' box ''before'' adding and selecting bells. Tower bells are selected by relay output channel number from largest to smallest. Missing bell numbers in the selector for toll means the bell is missing a tolling hammer. If you change the tower bell mode after selecting the bells, unintended selections may result, so check the bell selectors.
[[File:CustomRingingCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
;Toll
:A custom toll can be used when only one tolling bell is needed.
:Select the bell note, seconds between tolls, and set its duration to either a count or length of time.

;Swing
:Select from one to 9 bells and a time duration for them to ring. The bells will start in order from smallest to largest because the larger bells take longer to start and stop swinging. Larger numbers of bells will have their volumes adjusted to prevent distortion.

;Pattern
:A pattern is generally used for Angelus ringing or Time Strike chimes. You can select either to swing or toll up to 16 bells. Select a ringing tempo for each step in beats per minute.

:As you add bells using the '''Add Bell''' button, rows will be added to the pattern table providing selectors for '''Swing/Toll''' and choice of bell. Previously used bells cannot be selected on additional rows.

:Tap '''Add Bell Step''' to add beats to the end of the pattern. If you need the new beat inserted earlier in the pattern you can drag it left using the '''<-->''' button.

:Each column filled with squares represents one beat. Green squares trigger the associated bell on the column's beat. Tap the squares to turn them on (green) or off (gray). Tolling bells will be struck on every green square.

:For swinging bells, the first bright green square in the pattern will indicate where the motor should start. Tap on a subsequent beat to turn off the motor, indicated by another bright green square. Darker green squares between the start and stop point will be added to keep the motor running. Note that a swinging bell will take some time to begin ringing after the motor starts, and continue to coast and ring after you turn its motor off. You are also prevented from tolling a bell after it has been swinging to keep the tolling hammer safe. These rules apply for both real tower bells, if yours are connected, as well as our digital swinging bell simulations.

==== Uploads ====
;Upload MIDI
:Millennium and Platinum systems support MIDI file uploads. You can create chime and carillon arrangements of your own using popular notation programs such as Sibelius or Finale. Save the finished arrangement as a MIDI 0 or 1 file. Uploaded files appear in the User Recordings album and may be copied or moved to other albums for SmartAlmanac play.

;Upload Audio
:Platinum systems support audio file uploads. Chime.Center supports .flac, .wav, .mp3, and .aac formats. Uploaded files appear in the User Recordings album.

;Manage User Files
:Delete keyboard recordings or uploaded MIDI and audio files you no longer need.

=== Schedule ===
You should review your schedule before making additions as described below and in this video: '''[http://ezbells.com/csr0 Review Your Ringing Schedule]'''.

[[File:ConfigureAngelusCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
;Configure Angelus
:Select an '''Angelus Pattern''' for your prayer bell.

:Optionally select a second pattern (typically a swinging bell or peal) to follow the first pattern

:Click the '''View/Edit''' button beside the event to modify it.

:Click the '''Clear Schedule''' button at the top of the page to select the type of events you want to clear. You may clear any or all
* Weekly events
* Monthly events
* Annual events
* One Time events
* Time strikes events
* Angelus events
==== Preview and Played logs ====
;Review Upcoming Selections
:The next few days can be previewed including what SmartAlmanac music choices the system has made. Any changes made to the library or schedule will cause these selections to be changed (picked again in a different order).

;Review Played Selections
:Previous few days can be reviewed. SmartAlmanac choices can be challenged and remedied to your liking.

;Remedy disagreements
:Click on the '''Why will/did this play?''' button under the selection in question. A quick edit menu will appear. If a musical selection was chosen by the SmartAlmanac, the edit menu will display the album the title is in, the season the album is in as well as the season (active at the time) the album is assigned to. To change the SmartAlmanac handling of this selection and similar titles, click on the reason you do not think it should play. You will be taken to the appropriate screen to take corrective action.
[[File:ReviewPlayedCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px|Review a SmartAlmanac selection]]
* This event is scheduled at the wrong time: Schedule review screen
* This title shouldn't be in this album: Prompts to remove title from album
* This album shouldn't play in this season: Prompts to remove album from season
* This season occurs at the wrong time: Season editor screen
* SmartAlmanac should never choose this title: Prompts to remove title from all SmartAlmanac albums

=== Keyboard ===
The keyboard screens on Chime.Center are typically used on a tablet or laptop near the organ. MIDI keyboards connected to the local PC hosting the browser will not control the ringing system.

;Record Performance
:Replicates the local touchscreen and remote control app keyboard screen. This may be useful if you want to use the Music menus to add your recordings to Smart Almanac albums after each take.

;Keyboard Instruments
:Replicates the local touchscreen keyboard instruments setup page.

;Keyboard Settings
:Replicates the local touchscreen keyboard setup page. Allows technicians to set keyboard MIDI channels and transposition without having to be at the ringing system.

:The '''Monitor keyboard data''' button at the top of the screen shows you the notes and channels received by the system while you play the keyboard. Use this while changing organ stops and pistons to find which channel should be used for the ringing system. This feature is not available from the front panel of the system.

== Summary ==
Selection codes for ringing tower bells from Millennium and Platinum carillons - version 2.3.

Home screen AX

2025-07-10T15:36:00Z

Daveallen: Toolbar gears, red top, clock symbols

<span class="crumbs"><div style="font-size:84%">
'''[[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] » [[Operating manuals]] » [[:Category:AX_Manual|AX Table of Contents]]'''<br/>
''' [[Login_screen_AX|← Previous Section]]      [[Play_Selection_AX|Next section →]] '''
</div></span>
The home screen presents the main menu for each user of the system. When the system is unlocked and displaying the home screen, the [[Amplifier_inSpire_AX|tower amplifier]] will also become active so selections will play immediately.

== Toolbar ==
[[File:AXUX-Toolbar.png|none|500px|left]]

This toolbar appears at the top of the screen in all menus. From left to right its components are:

;Padlock
: Tap the padlock to lock the system before you walk away to prevent unauthorized tampering (system automatically locks after 15 minutes of inactivity from most screens)

;Front speaker control
: Tap the speaker to cycle through three volume settings: Mute, Quiet and Loud (Bravo and Millennium are On or Off). The default setting will revert the next time the system plays.
: Save the front panel speaker setting and fine level adjustment in [[Settings screen AX#Volume|Settings - Volume]]

;Back arrow
: Tap the back arrow to return to the previous screen

;Home
: Tap the home icon or Chime Master logo to return to your home screen

;Date and time information
: not touch enabled

;System status indicator colors and icons:
[[File:StatusIconsAX.png|frameless|right|180px|class=light-bg]]
: You can tap this icon for text explanation of the following:
: '''Blue''' for Standby mode.
: '''Yellow''' for Initializing (amplifier waking up).
: '''Green''' for Ready.
: '''Red''' for Muted (upper half outside, lower half inside zones). If system is connected to a relay panel, a red top also indicates a fault condition.
: '''Music note''' is displayed during selection play (tap icon to display title of selection).
: '''Keyboard icon''' is displayed when keyboard mode is active (automation is suspended).
: '''Diagonal slash''' indicates that automation is suspended.
: '''Hour glass''' indicates amp initializing, swinging bells are coasting (Tower bells option) or the database is busy.
: '''Gears''' schedule re-processing is triggered by recent changes. Processing is delayed by one minute to be sure the user isn't making additional changes to the schedule, albums or seasons.
: '''!''' indicates tower clock is not responding.

== User home menu ==
Because there really is no limit to the number of buttons you can customize on the home screen, you may have to scroll the screen to see all of the selections.

=== Quick function buttons ===
[[File:AXHomeCustomized.jpg|link=Customize_Home_AX|frameless|right|300px]]
The remaining buttons on the home screen are individually configurable on [[Customize_Home_AX|Settings Customize Home]] screen. They can be set to ring bells (specific) or play music (specific songs, random seasonal songs or randomly from an album of music).

After tapping on one of these buttons, a confirmation window will pop up. Tap Yes to play now or No to cancel.

==== Factory default quick functions ====
These common manual play functions will be on your home screen on a new system. If they do not appear on your screen, they may have been removed.

; Swing
: for call to church - 1 minute (or until Stopped)

; Peal
: for weddings and festive services - 5 minutes (or until Stopped)

; Custom toll
: Select any available bell, number of tolls (or time duration) and tempo before ringing

; Suspend Schedule

:When the schedule is active, the button appears dark red and is labeled ''Suspend Schedule''
:    Tapping the button when it is red prompts you for an ending date and time for schedule suspension.
:When the schedule is suspended, the button appears dark green and is labeled ''Resume Schedule''
:    Tap the button when it is green to immediately resume scheduled ringing.

; [[Keyboard AX|Keyboard]] (Millennium and Platinum models)
: play the bells from your connected MIDI keyboard and make recordings to expand your library.

; Next Selection
: stops the current selection and begins playing the next selection (if more selections are in the play queue).

; Stop
: will stop the current selection and clear the play queue.
: Double clicking the lighted power button will also do this.

; [[Play_Selection_AX|Play Selection]]
: menu allows you to pick a song, then optionally specify an arrangement and an instrument.

; Almanac Music
: two songs from the SmartAlmanac's current season

; Hymns
: two songs from the General Hymns album

There are many advantages to having your ringing system connected to the internet.
* Continual time clock synchronization
* [[Remote_AX|Remote control]] experience is enhanced
* Advanced music, seasons and schedules using [[Using_Chime_Center|Chime Center]]
* Automatic software and security updates
== Check your connection ==
=== Login screen ===
You can tell if the system is connected to the Internet by checking the connection icon found on the PIN login screen at the top right corner, just below the system status icon. It will display one of the following states:
* Check mark on the globe - indicates the system has full Internet connectivity
* X mark on the globe - indicates the system is not able to reach the Chime Center server
* '''AP''' (no globe) - indicates the system is in Access Point (AP) mode for local remote control
** Turn on Access Point mode whenever you cannot connect the ringing system to the Internet, even if you do not need the local remote control. This will turn off Internet services so that errors resulting from these missing connections will not degrade your ringing system's performance.
=== Network settings screen ===
Connection status is shown at the top of the Network Settings screen. Possible messages are:
* Status: '''Connected to the Internet''' - System is connected to Chime.Center.
* Status: '''Connected to Local Network''' - System is available on the local network. It is likely that router or firewall settings for the network are not allowing connections to Chime.Center. Restart the system and if that does not help, check that all [[Network_setup_AX#Your_network|required outgoing ports]] are available.
* Status: '''Access Point Mode''' - System is in Access Point (AP) mode for local remote control.
* Status: '''Not Connected''' - System is not making connections to any network. Check cabling and if using antenna, retry WiFi setup.
=== System time ===
The system will not be able to properly negotiate connections with our servers if the ringing system's time is incorrect. Go the the Settings - Date and Time screen to verify the correct date, time and time zone. Make sure the switches for DST and Automatic Time Sync are on.

== Connection modes ==
[[File:NetworkSettings.jpg|right|550px]]

=== Wired Ethernet ===
A wired network will always provide the easiest and most reliable connection if you have it.
;Setup
* Connect an Ethernet cable from your router to the labeled jack on the back of the AX carillon. This will be recognized immediately.
* When a network address is displayed with a green check mark next to ''Ethernet network Connected'' you are connected.
* Make sure the Access point switch at the bottom of the screen is '''Normal''' and gray in color. If you change the Access Point mode the system must be restarted (see below).
* If you also have a green check mark and IP address under WiFi Networks, you should unplug the antenna from the rear USB port.

=== Wireless ===
These connections require the available wireless adapter antenna. Screw the two parts together and powered down the ringing system before plugging in the antenna. Keep the system level while the antenna is plugged in, as tipping the system can cause damage to the antenna or port connection.

==== WiFi network ====
WiFi is trickier to set up, but has the advantage that it provides an air gap between the lightning prone outside components of your ringing system and your other wired network equipment.

[[File:Wifi.jpg|frameless|right|450px]]
* From the home page of the AX ringing system, choose Settings then Network. This page displays if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network.
* The Access Point Mode at the bottom of the screen should be set to '''Normal''' - gray when connecting to a WiFi network.
* If you have changed the Access Point mode, restart the system (see below).
* Tap on '''WiFi Networks''' and choose the one you want to connect to. Enter the WiFi password in the next box and tap Connect. It may take a couple of minutes.
* When the unit has successfully connected, it should update the Current WiFi Network and Wireless IP address.
* If you have trouble connecting with the wireless antenna we supply (password is not accepted):
** Your Router or Access point may be configured for WPA3 only. Please have your network administrator configure the WiFi network for mixed-mode WPA2+WPA3. The AX system does not currently support WPA3.
** A network bridge can be configured to connect your WiFi to the ringing system's Ethernet port. Your network administrator should be able to set this up for you. TP-Link makes a WPA3 compatible device, TL-WA1801 ([https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-TL-WA1801-Beamforming-Supports-Multi-SSID/dp/B0CNSCVXZN Amazon link]).

==== Access Point (no Internet) ====
Advanced eXperience ringing systems are designed to be connected to the Internet, but if none is available at your facility, the system can provide an ad-hoc local Access Point WiFi network to which you can connect your phone.

This means you can [[Remote_AX|remote control]] your ringing system when your phone is nearby.
* QR codes are different for remote controls that use the local connection from those that use Internet connection.
* Refer to the [[Remote_AX|Remote Control instructions]] for scanning multiple users and saving the app to you phones home screen.

===== Enable local remote access point =====

* While the Chime Master AX carillon is powered off, plug in the included wireless antenna into the top right USB port on the back, then restart the unit.
* From the home page, choose Settings then Network. At the top, you can view if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network (network address beside the appropriate IP label).
* Tap the Access Point switch near the bottom of the screen. When the '''Access Point switch is gold''' and an IP address appears beside ''Wireless IP'' you can exit the Network setup page and proceed.

Restart the system as described below. When the system restarts in AP mode, it will disable all Internet dependent services. This prevents internal connection errors and improves system performance.

* When you tap the lock page clock, the PIN login screen will indicate at top right that the system is in AP mode.
* Login and from the home page, tap the Remote button.
* After entering your PIN, the system will check its network connection status. You will be asked to connect your smart phone or other device to a password protected CMS WiFi. The SSID and Password will appear above the QR Code. After connecting your phone to the carillon's network, scan the QR code with your phone’s camera or QR reader. Tap the link which is provided from the QR code to open the '''Local Remote''' in your phone’s browser.

=== (Re-)Enable Internet features ===
If the system has an Internet Connection (using a network cable) and the wireless antenna is plugged in and the Access Point is left on, Internet features such as clock synchronization are disabled. Always turn off the Access Point when using a wired connection.
* From the home page, choose Settings then Network. At the top, you can view if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network (network address beside the appropriate IP label).
* Tap the Access Point switch in the lower left corner of the screen. When the '''Access Point switch is gray''' with an x on it, Internet features are enabled (after restart).
* Leave the WiFi antenna plugged in only if you are ''not'' connecting using an Ethernet cable.

Restart the system as described below. When the system starts with the Access Point switch set to '''Normal''', update, backup and other Chime Center remote features are enabled.

==== Verify connection and reset Remote ====
* When you tap the lock page clock, the PIN login screen will display the connection icon as described at the top of this page.
* Return to the home page, then tap the Remote button.
* After entering your PIN, the system will check its network connection status.
* Above the QR code the system will indicate that this code is for the Chime Center Remote.
* Make sure your phone has Internet access and scan the QR code with your phone’s camera or QR reader. Tap the link which is provided from the QR code to open the '''Chime Remote''' in your phone's browser.

=== Restart after changing modes ===
Restarting the system is required to change the Access Point mode:
* Press and hold the front panel lighted power button until it turns red. Release the button and it will begin to blink violet then blue.
* When the power button has stopped blinking and is solid blue, click it to restart the system.
* The light will blink green then turn solid gold for normal operation.

== Advanced settings ==
DHCP is the default setting that allows the system to obtain network information from your router and automatically attach to your network. Large campus installations may require the IT department to define how the system should be connected.

Open the Settings - Network page. The type of current connection will be displayed with a green check mark, along with the current IP address and interface mac address.

Tap the network connection you wish to change to static IP.

;WiFi
:Tap the Advanced Network Setup switch, re-enter the WiFi password and change IP settings to Static.
;Ethernet
:Tap the Advanced Network Setup switch.

Scroll down to enter the static IP to use, the Subnet (in CIDR bit count format without the slash), your gateway's IP, and your name server (DNS) IP. Tap Save and close the menu. It shouldn't be necessary, but a good idea to hold the lighted power button for five seconds to shut down the system. Click the button again when it is solid blue to restart.

== Internet access requirements ==
While connected only to your network (mobile data off), a test device (phone or PC) must be able to access
'''https://chime.center'''
'''https://sf.chime.center'''

* This site may need to be white-listed in firewall or DNS rules

=== Bandwidth ===
Typically you can expect around 50MB to 100MB per day (less than 3GB/month) of usage by the bell system, depending on the frequency of remote control and management usage.

== Security ==
AX ringing systems do not require static IP addresses or any special inbound port forwarding through your firewall. Chime Center's routing will make sure that only you have control of your bells. Best practices should be followed whenever connecting anything other than computers and printers to your network and the Internet. The following are a few suggestions that you should consider. The easiest are at the top and should be complied with first.

=== Ringing system ===
* [[User_profile_setup_AX|Change the default login PIN number]] for the login screen. Users who have (or guess) this code can use the front panel remote screen to authenticate remote access. You can use up to 10 digits.
* Use a strong password to login to Chime Center. Use a password manager to generate unique and strong passwords for each of your site logins. Never re-use your email password on other sites.
* Do not attempt to simultaneously use the wired Ethernet connection and the WiFi antenna connection. Make sure the Access Point is set to '''Normal''' (see above) if you are connected to a network. Necessary services are inhibited by the Access Point mode such as:
** Automatic clock synchronization
** Software updates
** Chime Center access
* Do not connect the ringing system directly to the Internet without a firewall (router based or dedicated).

=== Your network ===
No inbound ports need to be open on your firewall. Most router firewalls default to allow outgoing connections on all ports while blocking incoming connections.

In more secure facilities, outgoing connections may also be blocked to ports other than those needed for typical web browsing. Keep these outbound ports open for the ringing system:
* '''SSH 22''' (to *.sf.chime.center - remote tunnel for API and backups)
* '''TCP 443''' (to *.sf.chime.center - updates)
* '''TCP 7443''' (to *.chime.center - update systems with firmware < 1.4.20)
* '''UDP 123''' (time sync)
Chime Master ringing systems do not support Deep Packet Inspection of SSH packets (DPI-SSH), typically encountered on SonicWall products. If your network must enable DPI-SSH (very rare circumstances), disable it for the ringing system's (static) IP or mac address to allow API tunneling. Otherwise, the chime.center server will detect your firewall as a man-in-the-middle attacker and drop the connection.

'''Best Practices'''
* Use a strong WiFi password on your router or access point.
* Test your firewall for unneeded open inbound ports. Gibson Research provides the [https://www.grc.com/shieldsup Shields Up!] tool. After clicking the Proceed button, click the All Service Ports button to begin testing.
* Have your IT personnel configure a [https://robpickering.com/ubiquiti-configure-micro-segmentation-for-iot-devices/ segmented VLAN or Internet-of-Things sub-network] for the ringing system and other appliances such as security cameras. [https://www.zdnet.com/article/fbi-recommends-that-you-keep-your-iot-devices-on-a-separate-network The FBI recommends] you do this at home as well.

</div></span>

== Normal connected system ==
During normal operation, the system is assumed to be connected to a network with Internet access. Time is normally automatically kept synchronized and updated when the system is powered on. In the case where Internet time is not available, the system relies on a built-in accurate clock. This clock will run for a reasonable amount of time when power is disconnected, and the backup power source will recharge when the system is plugged in.

Part of the setup process involves selecting your time zone and enabling or disabling Daylight time adjustments.

[[File:Date&Time.jpg|600px]]

=== Time zone ===
Verify that the selected time zone is correct for your location.

=== Automatic DST ===
If the switch has a check-mark, daylight time will auto-adjust with no user intervention.

=== Automatic Clock Sync ===
Make sure the switch has a check-mark (not an X) to indicate that Internet time will be used to synchronize your clock. If you need to customize the time server, our technicians can remotely configure this for you.

If the switch is off, the button to manually set the time will appear. Do not enter incorrect times here to shift the ringing schedule. Incorrect time will inhibit remote control and management connections.

=== Tower clock control ===
Installations with tower clock control will have a status banner at the top of this screen. On the right side of the screen is a button to manually let the system know what time the tower clock hands are indicating. Next to the button, the assumed time the tower clock hands are pointing to is displayed.

When you tap the Set Clock Hands button, the system will stop advancing the tower clock so you can check its hand position. After you adjust the indicated minutes and hour, tap save. The clock will restart. If the hands are behind actual time, the clock will fast advance at a rate of one minute every 10 seconds. If the tower clock is ahead, it may wait for actual time to catch up with the hands (depending upon how far off it was).

== If Internet is unavailable ==

You only have to manually set and occasionally correct the time if Internet time servers are not available. Daylight time adjustments will continue to occur automatically if enabled.

;Automatic Clock Sync
:The switch caption will warn (even if enabled), "No Internet Connection - Clock will not sync."

;To set the time

#Turn off Automatic Clock Sync and a button will appear, '''Manually Set Date & Time''' to the right of the switch. Tap this button.
#Select the current month and year using the arrows and pull-downs at the top of the calendar screen.
#Select the current date on the calendar.
#Select the current (or upcoming) hour on the clock, tap the digital minutes at the top of the clock and select the next minute.
#Observe an accurate clock. When it shows the time you have set and the seconds are zero, tap the button at the bottom of the screen, '''Synchronize to :00 seconds'''.
#Tap the lower right Save button. The screen may go dark if you had to set the clock forward very far. Tap anywhere on the screen to resume.

=== Early firmware manual settings ===
If you do not have an Internet connection and your firmware version is older than 1.4.12 (on Settings - About menu), use the following steps to set the time in the event that the system has been powered off long enough to lose the correct time. Early firmware allowed the date advance only a few months at a time.

Plug in the system to AC power and '''allow an hour''' for the clock backup circuit to recharge before attempting to log in to adjust the clock. After an hour of charging, if the AX logo does not switch to the clock screen, hold the Gold power button to shut the system down and restart it after the button becomes solid blue.

* If the system never restarts to get past the AX logo, you should try connecting the system to a wired Ethernet Internet connection.

Steps
# Login to the system, tap '''Settings''' and then tap '''Date & Time.'''
# In Date & Time menu, tap the button to '''Manually Set Date & Time''' then these steps:
# Tap the right arrow on the calendar to advance months no more than five ahead (even if we are not there yet).
# Tap the date ''1'' on the last available month, or the correct date if you have reached the correct month.
# Set the time to the current time. The system will log you out and the screen will go blank.
# Log in and repeat the last instructions until you get to the current date and time.

If an invalid season is displayed on the clock screen after you have corrected the time, allow several minutes for the database to make the correction.

If you do not have an Internet connection and your firmware version is older than 1.4.12 (on Settings - About menu), use the following steps to set the time in the event that the system has been powered off long enough to lose the correct time. Early firmware allowed the date advance only a few months at a time.

Plug in the system to AC power and '''allow an hour''' for the clock backup circuit to recharge before attempting to log in to adjust the clock. After an hour of charging, if the AX logo does not switch to the clock screen, hold the Gold power button to shut the system down and restart it after the button becomes solid blue.

* If the system never restarts to get past the AX logo, you should try connecting the system to a wired Ethernet Internet connection.

Steps
# Login to the system, tap '''Settings''' and then tap '''Date & Time.'''
# In Date & Time menu, tap the button to '''Manually Set Date & Time''' then these steps:
# Tap the right arrow on the calendar to advance months no more than five ahead (even if we are not there yet).
# Tap the date ''1'' on the last available month, or the correct date if you have reached the correct month.
# Set the time to the current time. The system will log you out and the screen will go blank.
# Log in and repeat the last instructions until you get to the current date and time.

If an invalid season is displayed on the clock screen after you have corrected the time, allow several minutes for the database to make the correction.

== Normal connected system ==
During normal operation, the system is assumed to be connected to a network with Internet access. Time is normally automatically kept synchronized and updated when the system is powered on. In the case where Internet time is not available, the system relies on a built-in accurate clock. This clock will run for a reasonable amount of time when power is disconnected, and the backup power source will recharge when the system is plugged in.

Part of the setup process involves selecting your time zone and enabling or disabling Daylight time adjustments.

[[File:Date&Time.jpg|600px]]

=== Time zone ===
Verify that the selected time zone is correct for your location.

=== Automatic DST ===
If the switch has a check-mark, daylight time will auto-adjust with no user intervention.

=== Automatic Clock Sync ===
Make sure the switch has a check-mark (not an X) to indicate that Internet time will be used to synchronize your clock. If you need to customize the time server, our technicians can remotely configure this for you.

=== Tower clock control ===
Installations with tower clock control will have a status banner at the top of this screen. On the right side of the screen is a button to manually let the system know what time the tower clock hands are indicating. Next to the button, the assumed time the tower clock hands are pointing to is displayed.

When you tap the Set Clock Hands button, the system will stop advancing the tower clock so you can check its hand position. After you adjust the indicated minutes and hour, tap save. The clock will restart. If the hands are behind actual time, the clock will fast advance at a rate of one minute every 10 seconds. If the tower clock is ahead, it may wait for actual time to catch up with the hands (depending upon how far off it was).

== If Internet is unavailable ==

You only have to manually set and occasionally correct the time if Internet time servers are not available. Daylight time adjustments will continue to occur automatically if enabled.

;Automatic Clock Sync
:The switch caption will warn (even if enabled), "No Internet Connection - Clock will not sync."

;To set the time

#Turn off Automatic Clock Sync and a button will appear, '''Manually Set Date & Time''' to the right of the switch. Tap this button.

Using Chime.Center

2025-02-04T22:09:02Z

Daveallen: video

<div style="font-size:84%"> '''[[Chime_Master_Help|Help]] » [[Operating manuals]] » [[:Category:AX_Manual|AX Table of Contents]]'''<br/>

'''[https://Chime.Center Chime.Center]''' is the best way to manage your ringing system.

Systems require at least revision 1.4.20 (See the Settings - About page) to connect with Chime Center and the Remote Control. If your system is connected to the internet, call us so we can enable updates for you. The [[Network_setup_AX|Network Setup page]] will help you get your system connected.

;Help with Chime Center
:Look for a blue help button with the letter ''i'' on it on each Chime.Center page that you can click for page usage information.

:'''[https://ezbells.com/ccpl Training videos]''' links also appear on each page's help button. A QR code for the video will allow you to watch the explanation while you remain on Chime Center.

We suggest using an up to date version of Chrome for best results. If clicking the link in the email launches your system default browser and it is out of date, copy the complete link and paste it in the address bar of Chrome.

Availability of features described below vary depending on
* Chime.Center subscription level
* AX system model features
* User privileges set by the system administrator

;Logout
: You will remain logged in with the browser you log in with until you explicitly log out using the top right button. Be certain to log out when accessing Chime.Center on a computer that is not your own.

If you forget to log out of a public computer, sign into Chime.Center and go to My Account using the top right button. Click, '''Logout Everywhere'''. To retain remote control app access without re-scanning the QR code, be sure to un-check '''Clear Remote Sessions''' before saving changes.

==== Login issues ====
Email addresses should be entered in all lower case. If you insert punctuation characters (generally stripped by email servers) when you set up your account, you must continue to use them on the login page.

If you forget your password, enter your email on the [https://chime.center/ax/#/lostpassword Password recovery page] and click the '''Send Reset Request''' button. If the email address you enter matches a registered user, a one-time-use reset token will be sent to that address allowing you to change your password.

=== Home ===
When you open Chime.Center, you will see your personalized Home Screen. All of the custom manual control buttons will be shown. These features can be activated from this screen the same way you would use them on the Remote App.
Setup and scheduling features that show as buttons on the front panel of the system are part of the Chime.Center menus.

== Featured menus ==
=== Music ===
==== Titles and Albums ====
* Player controls - Some of the music menus support auditioning of individual songs or albums.
** Play control buttons are at the top and next to each item: '''Next''' and '''Stop'''.
** Play status is shown at the top of the screen with the title of the title played or in progress.
** Beside listed items will be green '''Play''' or '''Shuffle''' buttons to audition the item.

;Play Selection Title
:Type any part of a title to search

:Select arrangement, available instruments and outside speaker status before pressing play

;Albums
[https://ezbells.com/cea0 '''Video - Manage Music Albums''']
:Chime Master has provided each Advanced eXperience system with a library of preset Albums. An album is a collection of selection titles. Each album has music that is appropriate for specific musical styles, seasons or occasions.

:In this menu, you can add, edit or delete albums from your system, as well as add and delete selections from existing albums. If you choose to delete an album or delete a selection from an album, you are not deleting any selections, either custom or prerecorded, from the system itself.

:There is no limit to the number of titles in an album. An album with only a few titles will sound repetitive unless other albums are included with it in a season of more than one day. You can always edit an album to add more titles or group it with other Albums for more variety.

:The Edit Album screen allows you to edit the name of the album. This does not rename the album, but instead creates a copy of the original album with the new name. The new album will not be included in seasons until you edit each season that needs it. You should also remove the original album to prevent duplicated music in the season.

;Selection Titles
:Show in Default Library - Determine whether the title will be displayed when you are searching in your Default Library.

:Allow in SmartAlmanac - Select if this title may play when the AX carillon chooses a SmartAlmanac selection. The title must be in an album that is linked to a season before it will play as an Almanac Selection.

==== Seasons ====
[https://ezbells.com/ccs0 '''Video - Manage Seasons''']

It is important to realize that nearly all of the options for season start and ending dates are much more easily accomplished by answering the simple questions on the installation [[Operate_AX_products#Use_the_Guided_Setup|guided setup]]. If you want to run the setup again, simply Clear Almanac from the Setup menu on the front panel of your system.

This Chime.Center feature is for those who wish to associate musical Albums they have customized with existing or new seasons.

:SmartAlmanac<sup>™</sup> Advanced eXperience provides lets you set-it-and-forget-it then enjoy always appropriate music year after year.

:With Chime.Center you can set beginning and ending dates for each music season, determine which albums play during a season and even create your own seasons.

:All Chime Master carillons come with a typical collection of seasons. The default albums and seasons are configured for you when you walk through your system's [[Operate_AX_products#Use_the_Guided_Setup|guided setup]] and answer the simple questions regarding your worship tradition. In most cases, you will then be happy with the settings you find here.

:''Non-Seasonal'' is the name of the Season containing albums that will play when no other season is active.

:A season can last as little as one day or can span several consecutive days. It can be set up for a holiday you celebrate that we have not already defined or anytime you want a different album to play. When your carillon changes seasons, your schedule does not change, but anywhere you have selected an Almanac Selection to play, it will choose from the Albums in the current season.

:The size and number of Albums you add to a season determines how repetitious the music will seem during that season. During an enabled Season that contains no Albums, nothing will play when Almanac Music is called for. Clock ringing, prayer bells and other events scheduled with specific selections will continue to play.
[[File:EditSeasonCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
:'''Season methods and dates'''
* Enable season - uncheck if you do not wish the season to take effect.
* Silent season - check if you want the season to suspend ''all'' scheduled events. You may continue to ring manually.
** If you wish to continue scheduled ringing without music, create a season with no musical albums in it. Events scheduled with Almanac music will not play any music during this special season.
* Begin/End methods
** Use same start and end times every year - uncheck to enter different dates for each year (Example: Easter which has all of the moving dates already set for you).
** Begin/End based on another Season's start date - check to enter a season rather than date (Example: Lent is based on Easter).

;Season Timeline
:Display beginning and ending dates for active seasons (enter a start date and number of days to look ahead). Each seasonal date will be displayed with its active season.

==== Custom ringing ====
Premium Chime.Center subscribers will find Custom Ringing on Chime.Center's Music menu. You can use this screen to customize existing factory supplied ringing or create your own.

There are three types of ringing functions which you can define or edit as described below. Tap '''Load Existing Ringing''' to make a copy or edit existing ringing functions (user or factory).

Name your file so you can find it later when scheduling or creating a home screen button for it. If you are creating a time strike chime melody, don't forget to create a pattern for each quarter and name them as described in the [[Time_Strike_AX#Custom_clock_chime_melodies|keyboard recording instructions]].

Digital audio bells are indicated with [[Bell_Weights_and_Sizes#By_Musical_Pitch|bell octave notation]] where A3 is a 1000 lb. bell.

If you have tower bells connected to your system, check the '''Use Tower Bell(s)''' box ''before'' adding and selecting bells. Tower bells are selected by relay output channel number from largest to smallest. Missing bell numbers in the selector for toll means the bell is missing a tolling hammer. If you change the tower bell mode after selecting the bells, unintended selections may result, so check the bell selectors.
[[File:CustomRingingCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
;Toll
:A custom toll can be used when only one tolling bell is needed.
:Select the bell note, seconds between tolls, and set its duration to either a count or length of time.

;Swing
:Select from one to 9 bells and a time duration for them to ring. The bells will start in order from smallest to largest because the larger bells take longer to start and stop swinging. Larger numbers of bells will have their volumes adjusted to prevent distortion.

;Pattern
:A pattern is generally used for Angelus ringing or Time Strike chimes. You can select either to swing or toll up to 16 bells. Select a ringing tempo for each step in beats per minute.

:As you add bells using the '''Add Bell''' button, rows will be added to the pattern table providing selectors for '''Swing/Toll''' and choice of bell. Previously used bells cannot be selected on additional rows.

:Tap '''Add Bell Step''' to add beats to the end of the pattern. If you need the new beat inserted earlier in the pattern you can drag it left using the '''<-->''' button.

:Each column filled with squares represents one beat. Green squares trigger the associated bell on the column's beat. Tap the squares to turn them on (green) or off (gray). Tolling bells will be struck on every green square.

:For swinging bells, the first bright green square in the pattern will indicate where the motor should start. Tap on a subsequent beat to turn off the motor, indicated by another bright green square. Darker green squares between the start and stop point will be added to keep the motor running. Note that a swinging bell will take some time to begin ringing after the motor starts, and continue to coast and ring after you turn its motor off. You are also prevented from tolling a bell after it has been swinging to keep the tolling hammer safe. These rules apply for both real tower bells, if yours are connected, as well as our digital swinging bell simulations.

==== Uploads ====
;Upload MIDI
:Millennium and Platinum systems support MIDI file uploads. You can create chime and carillon arrangements of your own using popular notation programs such as Sibelius or Finale. Save the finished arrangement as a MIDI 0 or 1 file. Uploaded files appear in the User Recordings album and may be copied or moved to other albums for SmartAlmanac play.

;Upload Audio
:Platinum systems support audio file uploads. Chime.Center supports .flac, .wav, .mp3, and .aac formats. Uploaded files appear in the User Recordings album.

;Manage User Files
:Delete keyboard recordings or uploaded MIDI and audio files you no longer need.

=== Schedule ===
You should review your schedule before making additions as described below and in this video: '''[http://ezbells.com/csr0 Review Your Ringing Schedule]'''.

[[File:WeeklyScheduleCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
Weekly scheduled events play every week until changed.
Angelus and time strikes schedules are ''configured'' rather than ''scheduled''. Angelus and time strikes precede events that are scheduled at the same time.

;Create Event
:Date or days selectors change depending on if you are scheduling a Weekly, Monthly, Annual or one time event.
:Time - Set the time for the event.
:End or Begin at - set so event starts or ends at the programmed time.
:Use SmartAlmanac music - when checked, you have options to select either the number of minutes or songs you want to play. When this option is not checked you can look up specific ringing or music to play, and build a list of these selections before saving.

;Configure Time Strike
This screen opens showing the current schedule. You can either clear it and start over or make slight changes before saving. See the instructions for the [[Time_Strike_AX|Time Strike help]] for detailed instructions.
:Select the hours you want to ring for most of the weekdays while '''All''' is highlighted
:Select a particular day of the week to make it ring differently from the others ('''All''' will no longer highlight).
:Click each hour to turn on (green) and off (gray).
:Click the '''9 to 9''' button to turn on the hours from 9 AM to 9 PM and all other hours off.
:Click the '''Clear''' button to turn off the entire selected day(s).

[[File:ReviewPlayedCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px|Review of a user customized SmartAlmanac schedule]]

;Review Upcoming Selections
:The next few days can be previewed including what SmartAlmanac music choices the system has made. Any changes made to the library or schedule will cause these selections to be changed (picked again in a different order).

;Review Played Selections
:Previous few days can be reviewed. SmartAlmanac choices can be challenged and remedied to your liking.

;Remedy disagreements
:Click on the '''Why will/did this play?''' button under the selection in question. Then click on the reason you do not think it should play. You will be taken to the appropriate screen to take corrective action.
* This event is scheduled at the wrong time
* This title shouldn't be in this album
* This album shouldn't play in this season
* This season occurs at the wrong time
* SmartAlmanac should never choose this title

=== Keyboard ===
The keyboard screens on Chime.Center are typically used on a laptop near the organ. MIDI keyboards connected to the local PC hosting the browser will not control the ringing system.

;Record Performance
:Replicates the local touchscreen and remote control app keyboard screen. This may be useful if you want to use the Music Librarian to work with your recordings after each take.

;Keyboard Instruments
:Replicates the local touchscreen keyboard instruments setup page.

;Keyboard Settings
:Replicates the local touchscreen keyboard setup page. Allows technicians to set keyboard MIDI channels and transposition without having to be at the ringing system.

:The '''Monitor keyboard data''' button at the top of the screen shows you the notes and channels received by the system while you play the keyboard. Use this while changing organ stops and pistons to find which channel should be used for the ringing system. This feature is not available from the front panel of the system.

There are many advantages to having your ringing system connected to the internet.
* Continual time clock synchronization
* [[Remote_AX|Remote control]] experience is enhanced
* Advanced music, seasons and schedules using [[Using_Chime_Center|Chime Center]]
* Automatic software and security updates
== Check your connection ==
=== Login screen ===
You can tell if the system is connected to the Internet by checking the connection icon found on the PIN login screen at the top right corner, just below the system status icon. It will display one of the following states:
* Check mark on the globe - indicates the system has full Internet connectivity
* X mark on the globe - indicates the system is not able to reach the Chime Center server
* '''AP''' (no globe) - indicates the system is in Access Point (AP) mode for local remote control
** Turn on Access Point mode whenever you cannot connect the ringing system to the Internet, even if you do not need the local remote control. This will turn off Internet services so that errors resulting from these missing connections will not degrade your ringing system's performance.
=== Network settings screen ===
Connection status is shown at the top of the Network Settings screen. Possible messages are:
* Status: '''Connected to the Internet''' - System is connected to Chime.Center.
* Status: '''Connected to Local Network''' - System is available on the local network. It is likely that router or firewall settings for the network are not allowing connections to Chime.Center. Restart the system and if that does not help, check that all [[Network_setup_AX#Your_network|required outgoing ports]] are available.
* Status: '''Access Point Mode''' - System is in Access Point (AP) mode for local remote control.
* Status: '''Not Connected''' - System is not making connections to any network. Check cabling and if using antenna, retry WiFi setup.

== Connection modes ==
[[File:NetworkSettings.jpg|right|550px]]

=== Wired Ethernet ===
A wired network will always provide the easiest and most reliable connection if you have it.
;Setup
* Connect an Ethernet cable from your router to the labeled jack on the back of the AX carillon. This will be recognized immediately.
* When a network address is displayed with a green check mark next to ''Ethernet network Connected'' you are connected.
* Make sure the Access point switch at the bottom of the screen is '''Normal''' and gray in color. If you change the Access Point mode the system must be restarted (see below).
* If you also have a green check mark and IP address under WiFi Networks, you should unplug the antenna from the rear USB port.

=== Wireless ===
These connections require the available wireless adapter antenna. Screw the two parts together and powered down the ringing system before plugging in the antenna. Keep the system level while the antenna is plugged in, as tipping the system can cause damage to the antenna or port connection.

==== WiFi network ====
WiFi is trickier to set up, but has the advantage that it provides an air gap between the lightning prone outside components of your ringing system and your other wired network equipment.

[[File:Wifi.jpg|frameless|right|450px]]
* From the home page of the AX ringing system, choose Settings then Network. This page displays if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network.

* If you have changed the Access Point mode, restart the system (see below).
* Tap on '''WiFi Networks''' and choose the one you want to connect to. Enter the WiFi password in the next box and tap Connect. It may take a couple of minutes.
* When the unit has successfully connected, it should update the Current WiFi Network and Wireless IP address.
* If you have trouble connecting with the wireless antenna we supply (password is not accepted):
** Your Router or Access point may be configured for WPA3 only. Please have your network administrator configure the WiFi network for mixed-mode WPA2+WPA3. The AX system does not currently support WPA3.
** A network bridge can be configured to connect your WiFi to the ringing system's Ethernet port. Your network administrator should be able to set this up for you. TP-Link makes a WPA3 compatible device, TL-WA1801 ([https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-TL-WA1801-Beamforming-Supports-Multi-SSID/dp/B0CNSCVXZN Amazon link]).

==== Access Point (no Internet) ====
Advanced eXperience ringing systems are designed to be connected to the Internet, but if none is available at your facility, the system can provide an ad-hoc local Access Point WiFi network to which you can connect your phone.

This means you can [[Remote_AX|remote control]] your ringing system when your phone is nearby.
* QR codes are different for remote controls that use the local connection from those that use Internet connection.
* Refer to the [[Remote_AX|Remote Control instructions]] for scanning multiple users and saving the app to you phones home screen.

===== Enable local remote access point =====

* While the Chime Master AX carillon is powered off, plug in the included wireless antenna into the top right USB port on the back, then restart the unit.
* From the home page, choose Settings then Network. At the top, you can view if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network (network address beside the appropriate IP label).
* Tap the Access Point switch near the bottom of the screen. When the '''Access Point switch is gold''' and an IP address appears beside ''Wireless IP'' you can exit the Network setup page and proceed.

Restart the system as described below. When the system restarts in AP mode, it will disable all Internet dependent services. This prevents internal connection errors and improves system performance.

* When you tap the lock page clock, the PIN login screen will indicate at top right that the system is in AP mode.
* Login and from the home page, tap the Remote button.
* After entering your PIN, the system will check its network connection status. You will be asked to connect your smart phone or other device to a password protected CMS WiFi. The SSID and Password will appear above the QR Code. After connecting your phone to the carillon's network, scan the QR code with your phone’s camera or QR reader. Tap the link which is provided from the QR code to open the '''Local Remote''' in your phone’s browser.

=== (Re-)Enable Internet features ===
If the system has an Internet Connection (using a network cable) and the wireless antenna is plugged in and the Access Point is left on, Internet features such as clock synchronization are disabled. Always turn off the Access Point when using a wired connection.
* From the home page, choose Settings then Network. At the top, you can view if you are connected via an Ethernet cable or a wireless network (network address beside the appropriate IP label).
* Tap the Access Point switch in the lower left corner of the screen. When the '''Access Point switch is gray''' with an x on it, Internet features are enabled (after restart).
* Leave the WiFi antenna plugged in only if you are ''not'' connecting using an Ethernet cable.

Restart the system as described below. When the system starts with the Access Point switch set to '''Normal''', update, backup and other Chime Center remote features are enabled.

==== Verify connection and reset Remote ====
* When you tap the lock page clock, the PIN login screen will display the connection icon as described at the top of this page.
* Return to the home page, then tap the Remote button.
* After entering your PIN, the system will check its network connection status.
* Above the QR code the system will indicate that this code is for the Chime Center Remote.
* Make sure your phone has Internet access and scan the QR code with your phone’s camera or QR reader. Tap the link which is provided from the QR code to open the '''Chime Remote''' in your phone's browser.

=== Restart after changing modes ===
Restarting the system is required to change the Access Point mode:
* Press and hold the front panel lighted power button until it turns red. Release the button and it will begin to blink violet then blue.
* When the power button has stopped blinking and is solid blue, click it to restart the system.
* The light will blink green then turn solid gold for normal operation.

== Advanced settings ==
DHCP is the default setting that allows the system to obtain network information from your router and automatically attach to your network. Large campus installations may require the IT department to define how the system should be connected.

Open the Settings - Network page. The type of current connection will be displayed with a green check mark, along with the current IP address and interface mac address.

Tap the network connection you wish to change to static IP.

;WiFi
:Tap the Advanced Network Setup switch, re-enter the WiFi password and change IP settings to Static.
;Ethernet
:Tap the Advanced Network Setup switch.

Scroll down to enter the static IP to use, the Subnet (in CIDR bit count format without the slash), your gateway's IP, and your name server (DNS) IP. Tap Save and close the menu. It shouldn't be necessary, but a good idea to hold the lighted power button for five seconds to shut down the system. Click the button again when it is solid blue to restart.

== Internet access requirements ==
While connected only to your network (mobile data off), a test device (phone or PC) must be able to access
'''https://chime.center'''

* This site may need to be white-listed in firewall or DNS rules

== Security ==
AX ringing systems do not require static IP addresses or any special inbound port forwarding through your firewall. Chime Center's routing will make sure that only you have control of your bells. Best practices should be followed whenever connecting anything other than computers and printers to your network and the Internet. The following are a few suggestions that you should consider. The easiest are at the top and should be complied with first.

=== Ringing system ===
* [[User_profile_setup_AX|Change the default login PIN number]] for the login screen. Users who have (or guess) this code can use the front panel remote screen to authenticate remote access. You can use up to 10 digits.
* Use a strong password to login to Chime Center. Use a password manager to generate unique and strong passwords for each of your site logins. Never re-use your email password on other sites.
* Do not attempt to simultaneously use the wired Ethernet connection and the WiFi antenna connection. Make sure the Access Point is set to '''Normal''' (see above) if you are connected to a network. Necessary services are inhibited by the Access Point mode such as:
** Automatic clock synchronization
** Software updates
** Chime Center access
* Do not connect the ringing system directly to the Internet without a firewall (router based or dedicated).

=== Your network ===
No inbound ports need to be open on your firewall. Most router firewalls default to allow outgoing connections on all ports while blocking incoming connections.

In more secure facilities, your IT people may configure the firewall also to not allow outgoing connections to ports other than those needed for typical web browsing.

Keep these outbound ports open for the ringing system:
* '''SSH 22''' (to *.sf.chime.center - remote tunnel for API and backups)
* '''TCP 443''' (to *.sf.chime.center - updates)
* '''UDP 123''' (time sync)

* Use a strong WiFi password on your router or access point.
* Test your firewall for unneeded open inbound ports. Gibson Research provides the [https://www.grc.com/shieldsup Shields Up!] tool. After clicking the Proceed button, click the All Service Ports button to begin testing.
* Have your IT personnel configure a [https://robpickering.com/ubiquiti-configure-micro-segmentation-for-iot-devices/ segmented VLAN or Internet-of-Things sub-network] for the ringing system and other appliances. [https://www.zdnet.com/article/fbi-recommends-that-you-keep-your-iot-devices-on-a-separate-network The FBI recommends] you do this at home as well.

Keyboard performance and recording is supported on Millennium AX and Platinum AX models.

This menu allows you to practice, record or perform live using your AX unit with your MIDI keyboard/controller. Opening this screen will cancel anything that is currently playing. Manually or automatically scheduled music is suspended while in this menu.

[[File:AX-KBscrn.jpg|frameless|center|600px]]

== Keyboard screen ==
The left side of the screen has instrument selectors for up to two keyboards. On the right is a volume control slider for the inside monitor speakers only. The recording controls are in the middle of the page. At the bottom, in the Settings section, is an Instruments button to customize the instrument selectors and an outside speaker switch.

The outside zone switch is off by factory default for practice mode. You can play a live performance by turning the outside speakers on. You may record while in practice or performance mode. When you review your recording with the Play button in the keyboard screen, the outside speakers are automatically muted. After tapping Play, you can manually turn on the outside speakers if you wish. You can change the default outside zone setting on the [[Keyboard_setup_AX#General_settings|Keyboard Settings]] page.

=== Primary keyboard ===
Use buttons in the Primary keyboard section to select the active instrument. The active instrument will be highlighted. Instruments may be selected at any time, including while you are recording your performance.

; Carillon instruments
: All carillons span at least five octaves
; Chime instruments
: Most chime instruments span at least two octaves
; Toll instruments
: Most tolling instruments span at least one and a half octaves
: Tolling instruments use heavy hammers and may not be suitable for music

If you are using dual organ manuals, this melodic voice can be accompanied by a harp instrument on the secondary keyboard. If you would like an accompaniment instrument on a single split keyboard, use the split switch in the Instrument customization explained below.

=== Harp keyboard ===
;Platinum AX only
Harp instruments are provided for a second keyboard channel, typically an alternate organ manual. Set the MIDI channels for each organ manual in the [[Keyboard_setup_AX|Keyboard setup screen]] on the AX system settings menu (not the instrument settings).

These buttons have no effect when using a single keyboard or organ manual. In Settings – Keyboard, the Harp Keyboard can be hidden if not used.
;Harp instruments
:Supplied harp instruments span five octaves

=== Recording and playback ===
In some versions, your recording will always play back using the voice you have selected during the recording regardless of other settings.

To use the record feature, tap the record button (red button with round icon) to enable recording. Recording will begin when you play the first note. Tap the record button again to end the recording. You can listen to your recording before you save it by tapping the green play button; the red stop button will stop the playback.

==== Arranging for carillon ====
While most church musicians are skilled in adapting SATB hymns suitably for piano or organ performances on the fly, church bells present a new challenge. To help you arrange your music to sound its best on bells, the [https://www.gcna.org/ GCNA]'s Ronald Barnes Memorial Grant sponsored Rachel Perfecto's online guide, [https://www.arrangingforcarillon.com/ Arranging for carillon].

==== Save recording ====
If you wish to save your recording, tap the gray save button and type a title for your piece. If you do not wish to save your recording, simply record again. Any recording that is not saved and titled will be lost with the next recording.

=== Instrument Customization ===
The six selectors for primary keyboard instruments can be re-assigned by tapping the Instruments button in the Settings section of the Keyboard page. Choose from over twenty available instruments for your lead or solo voice. For each button, you may choose to have either a solo instrument, or flip the switch to split the keyboard and then select an accompaniment harp instrument for the left hand. When you have made your choices, tap Return at the bottom of the page. The selector buttons will reflect your changes.

Keyboard performance and recording is supported on '''Millennium AX''' and '''Platinum AX''' models.

Tap Settings on the Home screen then tap Keyboard on the Settings menu. Use this screen to set the system to respond to your MIDI keyboard controller. The system will respond to both the MIDI keyboard input jack as well as MIDI USB keyboards plugged into the USB ports.

If you want to customize the instrument presets for the keyboard mode, use the [[Keyboard_AX#Customization|Instruments]] button on the Home Page Keyboard screen.

The system will respond through the inside speakers with either a carillon voice, or if the Test with Split instrument is selected, a chime with harp voice. The screen is lengthy, so you will need to scroll down to see all of the options.

== General settings ==
<embedvideo service="youtube">https://youtu.be/-uMin4_BeQI</embedvideo>

;Keyboard timeout
:The Keyboard screen will default back to Home Page after the set number of minutes of no user activity on the display or keyboard. Having a timeout is important because all automatic ringing is suspended while in the keyboard mode. The default is 60 minutes.

;Port
:If multiple USB keyboards are plugged in, Port selects which one is active.

;Keyboard Outside Zone
:Change to Unmuted if you want to always play the keyboard outside as well as inside.

;Touch sensitivity
:Organ keyboards typically do not measure how hard they are played. Most MIDI organ interfaces will always send a constant medium velocity. We provide MIDI input velocity sensitivity adjustment as follows.
* Full sensitivity - use with Chime Master supplied keyboards and electronic stage pianos
* Moderately louder - raise the level of any keyboard
* Maximum loudness - use with non-touch sensitive keyboards for maximum impact

== Keyboard specific settings ==

The primary keyboard is used for most carillon performances. It also allows for a split-keyboard to combine chimes with harp instruments. The optional harp keyboard (if multiple organ manuals are available) can be used to provide a full five-octave harp instrument to accompany any instrument selected on the primary keyboard.

MIDI channels range from 1 - 16. Most piano keyboards and the Chime Master dedicated keyboard use MIDI Channel 1.

Setting the channel to match your organ may take some experimentation. Turn on the MIDI stop for the keyboard you are wanting to use. Play the keyboard while incrementing through the channel numbers. When you find the channel that works, turn off the MIDI stop to be sure the organ ceases to send data on that channel. If it does not, continue to search for the channel that is controllable by the stop. Organs generally always transmit on certain channels while allowing the organist to control other channels.

=== Primary Keyboard ===

;MIDI Channel
:Channel 1 is the factory default. Use the +/- buttons to select other channels.

;Transpose
:Transposition is adjusted by semitones. No transposition (zero) works well with five-octave keyboards starting on MIDI note 36 (C3). Negative numbers will result in lower tones and positive numbers raise the pitch. You may wish to raise the pitch for smaller scale keyboards, typically by 12 or 24 (by octaves).

;Split Note
:This selects the key on the keyboard where the voice will change, if you choose two voices to split one keyboard. MIDI note 70 (B-flat-5) is default.

;Split Transpose
:When splitting the keyboard into two instruments, the lead instrument on the right half of the keyboard will generally sound better if transposed down two octaves. This can be changed.

=== Harp Keyboard ===
;Platinum AX only
The optional harp keyboard (if multiple organ manuals are available) can be used to provide a full five-octave harp instrument to accompany any instrument selected on the primary keyboard.

;MIDI Channel
:Channel 2 is the factory default and will work with most keyboards use the +/- buttons to select other channels (or find an unused channel).

;Transpose
:Transposition is adjusted by semitones. No transposition (zero) works well with five-octave keyboards starting on MIDI note 36 (C3). Negative numbers will result in lower tones and positive numbers raise the pitch. You may wish to raise the pitch for smaller scale keyboards, typically by 12 or 24 (by octaves).

== Save settings ==

To save your settings, tap the Save button at the bottom right of the screen. Tap the Home or back buttons at the top of the screen to exit this menu ''without'' saving your changes.

== Connections ==
Information about finding your keyboard's '''MIDI OUT''' socket is available on the [[Keyboard and organ connections]] page.
[[File:AX-connections.jpg|frameless|right|300px|AX keyboard connections]]
=== MIDI jack ===

A seven pin DIN connector on the rear of the AX carillon accepts DIN-5 MIDI cables that are connected to the MIDI out jacks on most MIDI pianos and organs. Chime Master dedicated keyboards can connect to this jack and their power will switch on and off with the keyboard mode.

=== USB ===

Any of the four USB ports can be used to plug in a MIDI keyboard with a USB interface. Use the Port setup function above to enable the keyboard.

=== Wireless ===

;Chime Master offers a wireless keyboard interface in two models:
:70109 - built-in to [[Dedicated_keyboard|Chime Master 61 key dedicated keyboards]]
:70110 - for use with customer supplied keyboards (standard MIDI 5 pin DIN input)

[[Media:WirelessMidi.pdf|Illustrated PDF instructions]]

This kit comes with two boxes, a white one and a black one.

Connect the white box to the AX system using the supplied USB cable The receiver box is powered by the USB port.

Connect the black box to the instrument's MIDI output with the supplied MIDI cable. The power supply included in the kit plugs into the black box. If installed in an organ, plug the power supply to a switched outlet so the transmitter will initialize communications each time the organ instrument is powered on.

The Chime Master AX Remote control finally brings immediate, frustration free and secure control to the bell ringing world. Provided your bell ringing system has an Internet connection and your phone or tablet also has a good carrier broadband or WiFi data connection, one scan of a QR code will provide control of the system anywhere you go. Not everyone has Internet at their church, so we've provided alternative solutions for the same functionality when you are close to the carillon.

The remote control provides the quick function buttons on each user’s customized home screen. Alternatively, log in to '''[https://chime.center Chime.Center]''' from a tablet or PC to manage your ringing schedule, individualized user's access and other settings. Contact our customer service representatives to help you set up your account at 800-432-3977.

== Setup ==
No app store download required!

This section assumes that both the bell system and your phone/tablet are connected to the Internet.

If you do not have Internet access, use [[Network_setup_AX#Access_Point_modes|Network Settings]] to enable the ringing system's Access Point mode, then [[Remote_AX#Access_Point|follow AP instructions below]].

=== Obtain a secure access QR code ===
Scroll down to and tap the Remote button on the system's touch screen. Enter the PIN code of the user for whom you are installing the remote. The displayed Quick Response (QR) code has the secure information needed to load the remote for the selected user. Scan the code with your phone or tablet to load the remote control page on your device.

If you are not able to get to the system to scan the code on the front screen, you can get the code when you log into Chime.Center and select Remote Code from the Settings menu. If the screen is on your computer, use your phone's camera to scan the code. If you log into Chime.Center on your phone, tap the ''Open remote in browser'' button.

=== Scanning the code ===

Open the appropriate barcode scanning app, point the camera at the code and click on the notification link that pops up when the code is recognized.

Sometimes the device camera will read the code more reliably when the system screen is dimmed. Click the front panel power button (the gold light) to dim the screen if unable to scan at full brightness.

When you click the link that pops up after scanning the code, your browser will load your home screen served by the Chime.Center web portal. Use your browser's menu to save the remote control to your phone's home screen. You will be able to use your phone to control the bell system from anywhere you have an Internet connection.

==== Apple ====
iOS 11 or newer can scan the code with the camera app. Launch the Camera app, point at the code and look for a notification at the top of the screen. Other QR code apps are available in the App Store for older phones and tablets.

<embedvideo service="youtube">https://youtu.be/_ADZE40MT28</embedvideo>

==== Android ====
Android 12 or newer can scan the code with the camera app. Many Android devices can use either a manufacturer's supplied scanning app or Google Lens to scan the code. Lens is available in Assistant if Google Photos is installed. New Android releases may have the camera search Lens icon at the right of the search widget.

Touch and hold the home button on older Android phones to launch assistant and look for the Lens icon (camera with dot on lower right). Other QR code apps are available in the Play Store if needed.

=== Save to home screen ===
The first use of the remote app will be in your phone's browser. If you use your browser's Add To Home feature, it may appear on the home screen, or it may appear in your listing of all apps (from where you can drag it out to a home screen). If your secure authentication expires, you will need to update it by scanning a new QR Code on the bell ringing system.

Apple only allows Safari to add to home screen. If you have another browser set as default, you can bookmark the remote. We suggest that you temporarily set your default browser to Safari and add the remote to your home screen, then change your Settings to your preferred browser.

Samsung phones and possibly others may not allow you to save to home screen unless the home screen layout is unlocked. To unlock your phone's home screen, tap and hold in an empty area of the screen. On the popup menu, tap settings. Turn off Lock Home Screen Layout.

== Functionality ==
Your home screen will now be available on your phone or tablet to activate quick functions for music and ringing. You can create and edit these quick functions using Settings - [[Customize_Home_AX|Customize Home menu]].

=== Status ===
[[File:StatusIconsAX.png|frameless|right|180px|class=light-bg]]
The status icon at the top right of the display shows the system status.

Launching the remote app immediately wakes the audio system, but it takes a few seconds for the amplifiers to be ready to play. If you initiate ringing before the amplifiers are ready, you will experience a delay before ringing begins.

Closing the app screen starts a five minute timeout after which the amplifier will return to sleep mode.

=== Play Selection ===
[[File:RemoteAX-PlaySel.png|frameless|right|150px]]
Tap the Play Selection button to play a specific song or ringing selection. Use your phone keyboard to enter a word or phrase to search for and up to ten matches will be returned. Tap the desired selection in the search list to put its full title in the search bar and close the list.

You can tap the green Play button at this point and the system will use your [[Default_music_setting_AX|music style preferences]] to play the title. If you want to choose from other available arrangement and instrumentation options, use the selectors on the lower part of the screen before tapping Play.

You may also turn off outside speaker zones so you can audition arrangements and instruments through your inside speakers without broadcasting the selections.

While a selection is playing you can select additional titles or styles to play. When you tap the play button again the selection is added to the queue. You can skip from the currently playing selection to the next selection in the queue by tapping the blue Next button. Tapping the red Stop button will clear the queue and stop playing.

Return to the remote home screen by tapping the upper right back button.

=== Keyboard ===
[[File:RemoteKeyboard.jpg|frameless|right|150px]]
The remote for Millennium and Platinum models will have a Keyboard button. Tap the button to enable the system's MIDI input and bring up the keyboard remote page.

The keyboard page provides you with practice and performance features. The keyboard will play inside only by default, but you can switch on outside zones if desired. You can record, save and title your recordings, all within this app. This is especially helpful if your organ or keyboard is not right next to your bell system.

Keyboard control on the app is similar to the [[Keyboard_AX|keyboard page]] on the system's touch screen. Entering Keyboard will stop anything that is currently playing and suspend the automatic schedule and disable quick functions while it is open. The status icon at the top right of the system's touch screen will show that it is in the keyboard mode.

The recording controls are at the bottom of the page and may require that you scroll down to reveal them.
;Record
:Press the red button with the white circle to begin recording
;Playback
:Press the green button with the play arrow to listen to your recording
;Stop
:Press the red button with the white square to stop playback
;Save
:Press the gray button with the disk icon to save your recording

Be sure to tap the back button to close Keyboard mode and allow the schedule to resume. Otherwise, the [[Keyboard_setup_AX|keyboard timeout]] will be in effect (one hour default after the last note played).

If you wish to change the six voices available to you on the app, you can edit them on the touch screen Keyboard menu by tapping Instruments under Settings.

Return to the remote home screen by tapping the upper right back button.

== Update your remote ==
If you customize your home screen or the system receives updated firmware, your phone remote will not automatically update.

The remote control version number is displayed at the bottom right of the remote home screen. Simply tap on the version number to reload the latest version of the remote or to update the custom home screen.

== Limited connectivity modes ==

Without an Internet connection there are two alternate ways to control the system. This is easier for some phones and tablets than others because the phone will continually 'hunt' for Internet access. Without Internet updates, your local remote control screen may lack all of the functionality described above.

Refer to [[Network_setup_AX|the network settings page]] for instructions for WiFi or Access Point configurations.

=== Local Area Network ===

If the system detects that it is connected to a local area network, without an Internet connection, it will attempt to serve the home screen to that network. The phone or tablet must be connected to the same network to find the carillon. Contact your system administrator to select the SSID and password to connect to this network. You will only be able to access the system when near the WiFi antenna for this network (in the same building).

A downside to this method is that occasionally the bell system will receive a new IP address from the network. When this happens, a saved remote app icon will no longer reach the system. When the IP address changes, the system will provide a new code on the remote page to scan.

=== Access Point ===

If no network is available, you can still connect to the AX system for remote control. When the supplied WiFi adapter antenna is installed, and not connected to another WiFi network, you can [[Network_setup_AX#Access_Point‎‎|enable the bell system's Access Point (AP) mode]] to provide a local remote.

The Remote Setup screen will display this SSID and password for you to set your phone for connection. Once you have successfully connected to the carillon WiFi, scan the code with your phone or tablet to load the remote screen. Some phones or tablets may require you to confirm that you wish to connect to a network without internet, before it will complete the connection to the carillon WiFi.

;Note
:The QR code information when using the ringing system's local network is different than the one provided when the system is on the Internet. If later you connect the system to the Internet, you will need to scan the Chime.Center remote code as described above.

== Remote privileges ==

The administrator(s) can limit a user's privileges and set restricted access times during which the remote control will refuse connections.

Chime Master's '''inSpire Audio<sup>TM</sup> Sub''', a full-range loudspeaker system is engineered to provide authentic bell reproduction in outdoor bell towers and steeples. Tested to an ingress protection of IP45, it will withstand exposure to environmental conditions and provide long-lasting reliability.

It incorporates a 12" LF driver for downward omnidirectional (90x90 degrees) or outward horizontal projection (90x40 degrees).

Daveallen: /* Millennium/Platinum Implementation */

MIDI is an acronynm for Musical Instrument Data Interface. This is a current loop serial interface with a a standard protocol for communication between keyboards, electronic musical instruments and computers. This protocol includes codes for describing music data, such as note on and note off messages (sent when a key is pressed and released) among other codes.<br>

== MIDI Channels ==

The MIDI protocol allows sixteen different channels of data to be transmitted on a single MIDI cable. Generally instrument voices only respond to one channel at a time. Multi-timbral instruments can respond to multiple channels with different sounding voices.

=== Rodgers Implementation ===

Rodgers organs always transmit note data on channels 12 and up. There is usually a group of switches (pistons below the great manual) that enable lower MIDI channels when engaged. More expensive organs have two switchable channels for each manual, such as MIDI GT A and MIDI GT B (great manual A and B channels). Only enable one of these when setting up the keyboard (maybe B for Bells).<br>

=== Legacy Millennium/Platinum Implementation ===

The Millennium/Platinum carillon can respond to two MIDI channels simultaneously, and we refer to them as Primary and Secondary. When setting up a system with an organ, the Primary channel is typically the lower manual (Great) which is used for the melody bell voice and the Secondary channel is set to the upper manual (Swell) which is used for a harp voice.

When the Millennium carillon is placed in the System Setup - Keyboard Size/Midi menu it is looking for the highest and lowest MIDI note values and channel values for each keyboard. When it sees multiple channels (like it would with a Rodgers organ), it chooses the lower channel available. As of firmware 0311, we are only looking at the first two channels received.

== MIDI Volume ==

On the Platinum/Millennium Carillon, note velocity affects not only the volume level of the note but also the brilliance of the note. Playing vigorously will be brighter and louder, playing gently will be duller and quieter.

Organs do not typically have a touch sensitive keyboard. Instead we have to rely on the expression pedal (in the case of an electronic organ). On an Allen organ, the expression shoe controls the note velocity values affecting both volume and brilliance.

On a Rodgers organ, the expression shoe sends MIDI Channel Volume data. If we only used this to change the volume of the chime output, we would lose the brilliance component of the bell dynamics. When volume data is detected, along with a steady state velocity, the Millennium MIDI input substitutes the volume value for velocity on the notes received. So a Rodgers expression shoe will provide the same dynamic changes that an Allen would.

Firmware versions prior to 0411 would accept volume levels of zero and mute the output. This is now ignored since we have run across a Solid State Logic midi interface (probably not installed and setup correctly by the organ technician) that sent a volume zero command every time the MIDI output was enabled.

== Import MIDI file ==
=== Advanced eXperience models ===
Use [[Using_Chime.Center#Uploads|Chime Center's MIDI Upload]] page to import MIDI files to your ringing system.

MIDI type 1 files are compatible with the AX systems as long as there is only one track.

=== Legacy 2000 models ===
You can import MIDI files from notation software to your carillon using the Management Suite's [[Recording_library_MS|MIDI File Import]] premium feature.

Without the Recording Librarian option, a supported carillon can only store one MIDI file at a time in the recording buffer.
=== Preparing MIDI files for upload ===
Only single track [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_Instrument_Digital_Interface#File_formats MIDI Format 0] files are compatible with Management Suite.

If you selected a preset voice on your computer to play back the arrangement, delete that preset before saving the file for upload.

It is important to transpose the music properly for the bell voice you will use to play it back. Automated chimes and carillons are always transposed to ring the largest bell on middle C, or C4 (Midi note 48) regardless of their true pitch. Millennium Cast Bronze carillon voices range from C3 to C8. Millennium Chime and harp selections use a split keyboard with the harp from C3 to Bb5 and the chime from B5 to C8. Notes above and below these ranges are prohibited.

Tempo and time signature changes are supported. All other controls such as volume and patch changes must be removed from the file.

Stacking lots of notes in fast changing chords may overload the playback engine of the carillon or bell controller resulting in a slight slowing of playback tempo. Quickly arppegiating dense chords will avoid this slowdown without a noticeable change of arrangement. Striking the larger bells before smaller bells is customary. Arrangements that are kind to the listener's ears will avoid striking more than two notes simultaneously.

;Albums
[https://ezbells.com/cea0 '''Video - Manage Music Albums''']
:Chime Master has provided each Advanced eXperience system with a library of preset Albums. An album is a collection of selection titles. Each album has music that is appropriate for specific musical styles, seasons or occasions.

:In this menu, you can add, edit or delete albums from your system, as well as add and delete selections from existing albums. If you choose to delete an album or delete a selection from an album, you are not deleting any selections, either custom or prerecorded, from the system itself.

:There is no limit to the number of titles in an album. An album with only a few titles will sound repetitive unless other albums are included with it in a season of more than one day. You can always edit an album to add more titles or group it with other Albums for more variety.

:The Edit Album screen allows you to edit the name of the album. This does not rename the album, but instead creates a copy of the original album with the new name. The new album will not be included in seasons until you edit each season that needs it. You should also remove the original album to prevent duplicated music in the season.

;Selection Titles
:Show in Default Library - Determine whether the title will be displayed when you are searching in your Default Library.

:Allow in SmartAlmanac - Select if this title may play when the AX carillon chooses a SmartAlmanac selection. The title must be in an album that is linked to a season before it will play as an Almanac Selection.

==== Seasons ====

It is important to realize that nearly all of the options for season start and ending dates are much more easily accomplished by answering the simple questions on the installation [[Operate_AX_products#Use_the_Guided_Setup|guided setup]]. If you want to run the setup again, simply Clear Almanac from the Setup menu on the front panel of your system.

This Chime.Center feature is for those who wish to associate musical Albums they have customized with existing or new seasons.

:SmartAlmanac<sup>™</sup> Advanced eXperience provides lets you set-it-and-forget-it then enjoy always appropriate music year after year.

:With Chime.Center you can set beginning and ending dates for each music season, determine which albums play during a season and even create your own seasons.

:All Chime Master carillons come with a typical collection of seasons. The default albums and seasons are configured for you when you walk through your system's [[Operate_AX_products#Use_the_Guided_Setup|guided setup]] and answer the simple questions regarding your worship tradition. In most cases, you will then be happy with the settings you find here.

:''Non-Seasonal'' is the name of the Season containing albums that will play when no other season is active.

:A season can last as little as one day or can span several consecutive days. It can be set up for a holiday you celebrate that we have not already defined or anytime you want a different album to play. When your carillon changes seasons, your schedule does not change, but anywhere you have selected an Almanac Selection to play, it will choose from the Albums in the current season.

:The size and number of Albums you add to a season determines how repetitious the music will seem during that season. During an enabled Season that contains no Albums, nothing will play when Almanac Music is called for. Clock ringing, prayer bells and other events scheduled with specific selections will continue to play.
[[File:EditSeasonCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
:'''Season methods and dates'''
* Enable season - uncheck if you do not wish the season to take effect.
* Silent season - check if you want the season to suspend ''all'' scheduled events. You may continue to ring manually.
** If you wish to continue scheduled ringing without music, create a season with no musical albums in it. Events scheduled with Almanac music will not play any music during this special season.
* Begin/End methods
** Use same start and end times every year - uncheck to enter different dates for each year (Example: Easter which has all of the moving dates already set for you).
** Begin/End based on another Season's start date - check to enter a season rather than date (Example: Lent is based on Easter).

;Season Timeline
:Display beginning and ending dates for active seasons (enter a start date and number of days to look ahead). Each seasonal date will be displayed with its active season.

==== Custom ringing ====
Premium Chime.Center subscribers will find Custom Ringing on Chime.Center's Music menu. You can use this screen to customize existing factory supplied ringing or create your own.

There are three types of ringing functions which you can define or edit as described below. Tap '''Load Existing Ringing''' to make a copy or edit existing ringing functions (user or factory).

Name your file so you can find it later when scheduling or creating a home screen button for it. If you are creating a time strike chime melody, don't forget to create a pattern for each quarter and name them as described in the [[Time_Strike_AX#Custom_clock_chime_melodies|keyboard recording instructions]].

Digital audio bells are indicated with [[Bell_Weights_and_Sizes#By_Musical_Pitch|bell octave notation]] where A3 is a 1000 lb. bell.

If you have tower bells connected to your system, check the '''Use Tower Bell(s)''' box ''before'' adding and selecting bells. Tower bells are selected by relay output channel number from largest to smallest. Missing bell numbers in the selector for toll means the bell is missing a tolling hammer. If you change the tower bell mode after selecting the bells, unintended selections may result, so check the bell selectors.
[[File:CustomRingingCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
;Toll
:A custom toll can be used when only one tolling bell is needed.
:Select the bell note, seconds between tolls, and set its duration to either a count or length of time.

;Swing
:Select from one to 9 bells and a time duration for them to ring. The bells will start in order from smallest to largest because the larger bells take longer to start and stop swinging. Larger numbers of bells will have their volumes adjusted to prevent distortion.

;Pattern
:A pattern is generally used for Angelus ringing or Time Strike chimes. You can select either to swing or toll up to 16 bells. Select a ringing tempo for each step in beats per minute.

:As you add bells using the '''Add Bell''' button, rows will be added to the pattern table providing selectors for '''Swing/Toll''' and choice of bell. Previously used bells cannot be selected on additional rows.

:Tap '''Add Bell Step''' to add beats to the end of the pattern. If you need the new beat inserted earlier in the pattern you can drag it left using the '''<-->''' button.

:Each column filled with squares represents one beat. Green squares trigger the associated bell on the column's beat. Tap the squares to turn them on (green) or off (gray). Tolling bells will be struck on every green square.

:For swinging bells, the first bright green square in the pattern will indicate where the motor should start. Tap on a subsequent beat to turn off the motor, indicated by another bright green square. Darker green squares between the start and stop point will be added to keep the motor running. Note that a swinging bell will take some time to begin ringing after the motor starts, and continue to coast and ring after you turn its motor off. You are also prevented from tolling a bell after it has been swinging to keep the tolling hammer safe. These rules apply for both real tower bells, if yours are connected, as well as our digital swinging bell simulations.

==== Uploads ====
;Upload MIDI
:Millennium and Platinum systems support MIDI file uploads. You can create chime and carillon arrangements of your own using popular notation programs such as Sibelius or Finale. Save the finished arrangement as a MIDI 0 or 1 file. Uploaded files appear in the User Recordings album and may be copied or moved to other albums for SmartAlmanac play.

;Upload Audio
:Platinum systems support audio file uploads. Chime.Center supports .flac, .wav, .mp3, and .aac formats. Uploaded files appear in the User Recordings album.

;Manage User Files
:Delete keyboard recordings or uploaded MIDI and audio files you no longer need.

=== Schedule ===
You should review your schedule before making additions as described below and in this video: '''[http://ezbells.com/csr0 Review Your Ringing Schedule]'''.

[[File:WeeklyScheduleCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
Weekly scheduled events play every week until changed.
Angelus and time strikes schedules are ''configured'' rather than ''scheduled''. Angelus and time strikes precede events that are scheduled at the same time.

;Create Event
:Date or days selectors change depending on if you are scheduling a Weekly, Monthly, Annual or one time event.
:Time - Set the time for the event.
:End or Begin at - set so event starts or ends at the programmed time.
:Use SmartAlmanac music - when checked, you have options to select either the number of minutes or songs you want to play. When this option is not checked you can look up specific ringing or music to play, and build a list of these selections before saving.

;Configure Time Strike
This screen opens showing the current schedule. You can either clear it and start over or make slight changes before saving. See the instructions for the [[Time_Strike_AX|Time Strike help]] for detailed instructions.
:Select the hours you want to ring for most of the weekdays while '''All''' is highlighted
:Select a particular day of the week to make it ring differently from the others ('''All''' will no longer highlight).
:Click each hour to turn on (green) and off (gray).
:Click the '''9 to 9''' button to turn on the hours from 9 AM to 9 PM and all other hours off.
:Click the '''Clear''' button to turn off the entire selected day(s).
:Click the '''Quarters''' button to select which quarter hours to ring.
:Click the '''Top Style''' button to select ringing style for the top of the hour.
:Click the '''Other Quarters Style''' button to select the ringing style for the other quarters (melody or toll).
:Select the '''Time Strike Melody''' and click the '''Save to Schedule''' button at the bottom.

[[File:ConfigureAngelusCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px]]
;Configure Angelus
:Select an '''Angelus Pattern''' for your prayer bell.

:Optionally select a second pattern (typically a swinging bell or peal) to follow the first pattern

:Options
* additionally ring a DeProfundis (nine slow tolls) at 9PM
* play the Angelus instead of time strikes at the selected times
* play the Angelus following the time strikes at the selected times

:Click the orange '''+''' button to add Angelus times to the list (typically two or three times per day).

:Click the '''>''' button if you want to add a separate schedule for Sundays.

:Click the '''Save to Schedule''' button at the bottom.

;Review the schedule
:Review scheduled events that are scheduled Weekly (other than time strike and Angelus ringing), Monthly, Annual and One Time.

:Click the '''View/Edit''' button beside the event to modify it.

:Click the '''Clear Schedule''' button at the top of the page to select the type of events you want to clear. You may clear any or all
* Weekly events
* Monthly events
* Annual events
* One Time events
* Time strikes events
* Angelus events
[[File:ReviewPlayedCCAX.png|frameless|right|200px|Review of a user customized SmartAlmanac schedule]]

;Review Upcoming Selections
:The next few days can be previewed including what SmartAlmanac music choices the system has made. Any changes made to the library or schedule will cause these selections to be changed (picked again in a different order).

;Review Played Selections
:Previous few days can be reviewed. SmartAlmanac choices can be challenged and remedied to your liking.

;Remedy disagreements
:Click on the '''Why will/did this play?''' button under the selection in question. Then click on the reason you do not think it should play. You will be taken to the appropriate screen to take corrective action.
* This event is scheduled at the wrong time
* This title shouldn't be in this album
* This album shouldn't play in this season
* This season occurs at the wrong time
* SmartAlmanac should never choose this title

=== Keyboard ===
The keyboard screens on Chime.Center are typically used on a laptop near the organ. MIDI keyboards connected to the local PC hosting the browser will not control the ringing system.

;Record Performance
:Replicates the local touchscreen and remote control app keyboard screen. This may be useful if you want to use the Music Librarian to work with your recordings after each take.

;Keyboard Instruments
:Replicates the local touchscreen keyboard instruments setup page.

;Keyboard Settings
:Replicates the local touchscreen keyboard setup page. Allows technicians to set keyboard MIDI channels and transposition without having to be at the ringing system.

:The '''Monitor keyboard data''' button at the top of the screen shows you the notes and channels received by the system while you play the keyboard. Use this while changing organ stops and pistons to find which channel should be used for the ringing system. This feature is not available from the front panel of the system.
