1. Chapter Implementing example paging system explaining how to create a simple intercom and paging system using BARIX ICPAGING solution Chapter Additional information explaining how to rescue a device via the serial port how to use the ICPAGING in multimaster environment and providing a quick reference to BARP address bitmap handling and BIN DEC HEX conversion Chapter Dictionary giving a short explanation of some of the most important terms used in this manual EJ Introduction 2 Running ICMASTER 2 1 Booting up PS16 ICMASTER Power up the PS16 If the SonicIP is enabled you will hear the IP which the PS16 got from your DHCP server After that the device will start detecting the USB stick The following message will be shown on the PS16 LCD while the check is being performed Checking USB sanity When the check was successful the ICMASTER idle message will be displayed IcMaster FDX 1 02 04 07 2012 16 keys In case of broken or missing USB stick the application will display an error message and will exit Bad USB stick fs In this case please power off the PS16 remove the two screws from the bottom open the cover and replace the USB stick with a new one formatted with FAT32 file system Also have in mind the following important notes NOTE 1 If you plan to use the ICMASTER on Annuncicom 100 200 please plug in a formatted USB stick otherwise the application will not start NOTE 2 Depending on your conf
