The home screen presents the main menu for each user of the system. When the system is unlocked and displaying the home screen, the tower amplifier will also become active so selections will play immediately.
Toolbar
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 - 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
- You can tap this icon for text explanation of the following:
- Blue for Standby
- Yellow for Initializing (amplifier waking up)
- Green for Ready
- Red for Muted (upper half outside, lower half inside zones)
- 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 indicates schedule processing after boot-up or changes to schedules or settings
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
The remaining buttons on the home screen are individually configurable on 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.
