WAM-2
Dead air doesn't wait for business hours.
The WAM-2 watches two channels of audio for silence and overload. The moment it hears trouble, it runs your relay actions, such as switching in a backup source, and e-mails and texts you. Its meters are on a web page you can open from anywhere.

One sweep through a bad night: the program goes silent, the WAM-2 waits out the silence time you set, then acts.

- Audio is fine. The WAM-2 keeps listening to both channels.
- Silence. The silence time you set starts counting.
- It acts: a relay switches in your backup, and you get an e-mail and a text.
- Audio returns, and your actions can undo themselves.
Why engineers pick the WAM-2.
- Nothing to install.VU meters, alarms and setup all live in its own web page, in nearly any browser.
- A web remote control too.Its six relays and two status inputs work whether or not you're watching audio.
- It cleans up after itself.Alternate actions can run when the audio comes back, undoing what it did.
- Streams in or out.The streaming option receives MP3 or Ogg Vorbis streams, or sends an Ogg Vorbis stream for confidence monitoring.
- Free firmware updates.New features and fixes load through the web page, at no charge.
- Copy your setup.Settings and labels save to a PC and load into the same WAM-2 or another one.
More about the WAM-2
The WAM-2 is the next generation of the Silence Sentinal, winner of Radio World's 2009 Cool Stuff award.
It doubles as an inexpensive web remote control: the six relays and two status inputs are there whether or not you're watching audio. Three user levels run from reader to administrator.
Up to two WAM-2s fit on one Shelf-1 rack shelf.
