8.3.2 View Zone Points
To view the points in a zone, follow these steps:
1. Login to the panel. The panel will automatically go to the main menu.
2. Select 7 for Panel Programming.
3. Press 2 to enter zone menu.
4. Press 2 to view zone points.
5. Enter the number of the zone you wish to view, then press ENTER.

8.4 Group

An output group is made up of output points that have been programmed to respond in the same way. Output groups simplify programming
because you only have to program the output characteristics that are common to all of the group points once, instead of programming each
individual point. Once you have defined the characteristics of output groups, you can assign each point to the appropriate group. All valid
output points are assigned to only one output group. Unused points are not assigned to any output group. Up to 999 output groups can be
defined per panel.
8.4.1 Edit Group
In the Edit Group option, you can program the name of an output group and change the properties of that group.
To edit a group, follow these steps:
1. Login to the panel. The panel will automatically access the Main Menu.
2. Select 7 for Panel Programming.
3. Press 3 to enter Group Menu.
4. Press 1 to edit the Group.
5. Enter the number of the group you want to edit, then press ENTER.
Edit Group Name
6. To edit the Group Name, press 1.
You can use words to display a descriptive name for a group.
NOTE: See Appendix A for editing names.
Edit Group Properties
7. To edit the group properties, Press 2 from the Edit Group Menu.
The Edit Group Menu allows you to select options for each group for the following items:
NOTE: These settings only apply to non-voice groups.
• Select Y for voice group and N for non-voice group.
• Select / Dynamic Activation switch number: used when the group is defined as a voice group; or as a non-voice group where Dynamic
Activation is used. This option links the output group with a voice select switch on an EVS-VCM, EVS-RVM, or switch expander for
dynamic activation/deactivation. See "Activating Output Groups Dynamically" on page 129 for more information.
• Template Override is shown when set to Yes.
• Dynamic Activation is shown if a non-voice group is assigned to a Select/Dynamic Activation switch number
• Dynamic Activation / Template Override Cadence (shown when the Template override is set to Yes or if a non-voice group is assigned
a Select/Dynamic Activation switch number): this setting sets the cadence of the non-voice group mapped to voice select switch when
activated using dynamic activation or by a template. See "Activating Output Groups Dynamically" on page 129 and Section 8.5 for
more information.

Defining Output Group Type
Each output group is defined as either a voice output group or a non-voice output group. Output points that are
audio circuits (all circuits on the EVS-50W, EVS-125W, EVS-100W, EVS-INT50W, and EVS-CE4) can only be assigned to voice output
groups. Output points that are non-voice circuits (all other points and circuits that are on all modules except the EVS-50W, EVS-125W,
EVS-100W, EVS-INT50W, and EVS-CE4) are assigned to non-voice output groups.C
Each of the output groups defined as voice can be mapped to a particular switch and LED on the EVS-VCM, EVS-RVM, and EVS-SW24.
This allows the user to see the state of the voice groups assigned to the switches.
This also lets the user individually select which areas they want to do a live page into. Output groups not defined as voice groups can also be
assigned to these switches as long as there is a voice group already assigned to the group. This allows for dynamically activating/deactivating
both voice and strobes/other outputs in an area with a single button press. See "Activating Output Groups Dynamically" on page 129.
