Tip: To keep the association data for use in the future, choose Router
> Export Router Configuration to export the data.
6. Keep Paragon Manager running and continuously connected to
Paragon.
Now when you access the channel port 8 by operating the user station
connected to user port 1, you will be able to hear the server's sound via the
speakers near your user station.
Tip: If you install a set of speakers around each user station, and associate
them properly in Paragon Manager, you will be able to hear the sound of
the channel-8 server from any user station.
Audio/Video Routing Characteristics
Before performing the audio/video routing function, you should check the
number of audio/video sources associated with the channel you want to
access and the number of audio/video destinations associated with the
user port you are using.
The routing function has these characteristics:
• Audio sources are routed to audio destinations, and video sources to
video destinations.
• Signals are routed from source ports to destination ports based on the
port number sequence.
For example, if channel port 8 is associated with audio source ports 1
through 3, and user port 1 is associated with audio destination ports 4,
7 and 9, then when you access channel 8 from user port 1, the audio
routing directions are:
Source 1 --> Destination 4
Source 2 --> Destination 7
Source 3 --> Destination 9
• When the number of source ports is equal to or less than the number
of destination ports, every source can find a destination to output their
signals.
• When there are more source ports than destination ports, the first
sources can find destinations to output the signals, but not the last
sources.
For example, if a channel is associated with 3 audio source ports, but
the user port is associated with 2 audio destination ports, then only the
first two audio sources' signals are routed and the last audio source
finds no destinations for signal routing.
