CHAPTER 11
Glossary
All Call - For talk key assignment only. Activating an All Call key will also activate all talk keys to the left of
the All Call key (up to, but not including another All Call key).
Alpha - Alphas are the user-changeable names which identify destinations (intercom ports, party lines,
etc.). Change Alpha names for intercom ports using the Port Alpha button in AZedit. Change Alpha
names for everything else using the Other Alpha button. When you assign a destination to a talk
key, the alpha name will appear in the alphanumeric display for that key (on keypanels so
equipped).
Auto Follow (AF) - A key assignment for listen keys only. Auto follow causes a key's listen assignment to always be
the same as the talk assignment. Thus, if you change the talk assignment, you do not also have to
change the listen assignment. You can manually activate an auto-follow listen key independently of
the talk key. If you want auto-activation (or deactivation) of listen during talk, use one of the other
auto key assignments, such as auto listen or auto mute.
Auto Functions - Auto functions are special key assignments that work with other key assignments. For further
information, see the glossary descriptions of individual auto functions: auto-follow, auto-listen,
auto-reciprocal, auto-mute, auto-table, all-call, DIM.
Auto Listen (AL) - A key assignment for listen keys only. This assignment works like auto follow, except that listen
automatically activates during talk, Auto listen is sometimes a good assignment for use with party
lines or other non-keypanel devices that do not have talk-back control of matrix crosspoints.
Auto Mute (AM) - A key assignment for listen keys only. This assignment works like auto follow, except that listen
automatically mutes during talk. Auto mute can help prevent feedback or echo when talking to
certain destinations. In some cases, you may find it works better to disable talk latching for this
type of key, because if you accidentally leave talk latched on you will never be able to hear the
destination. To disable latching, in the Keypanels / Ports menu of AZedit, check the “D” check box
for any talk key that has auto mute selected as the listen assignment.
Auto Reciprocal (AR) - A key assignment for listen keys only. This assignment forces you to continuously listen to
whatever is assigned to the talk key. It is used commonly on keypanels which are not equipped with
listen keys, to allow listening to party lines. It is also useful to force listening when it is desirable to
have an operator continuously hear a party line or other source.
Auto Table (AT) - A key assignment for listen keys only, when the corresponding talk key is assigned to an IFB. Auto
Table causes a listen key's assignment to always be the same as the Listen Source for whatever IFB
is currently assigned to the talk key. (You define the Listen Source in AZedit during IFB setup.)
Auto Table is convenient in a broadcast environment when a director needs 2-way communication
