• AMS will read back a condensed PA menu:
To Start Public Address, press 1.
To Stop Public Address, press 2.
To Repeat This Menu, press 0.
• AMS will remain in Lockdown Mode until cleared from the touch panel. The
lockdown can be cleared either by pressing [All Clear] on the lockdown alert,
or by pressing [All Clear] on the System page. Note that [All Clear] on the
lockdown alert will fail if the user is not logged in. In that case the user must
login and then clear the alert by using the [All Clear] button on the System
Page. This will restore the bell schedule and the AMX Television Managers
will briefly read “Clear”, then they will revert to the clock display. Pressing
[Close] will remove the lockdown alert but will leave the system in Lockdown
Mode until cleared on the System page.

telephone line noise, hardware equipment failures, and other unrelated factors that are outside of our
