Description

The 610VE panel’s VSYS option adds

emergency voice evacuation capabilities

to the IdentiFlex 610 (IF610) analog ad-

dressable Fire Alarm Control Panel

(FACP).

The VSYS options are integrated in the

same housing as the IF610, delivering

dependable performance in an attractive

cabinet design.

VSYS systems provide prerecorded digi-

tal alert messages, all-call, and indi-

vidual control-by-circuit (microphone).

The emergency voice evacuation capa-

bility of the IF610 is used to provide pre-

recorded natural-voice messages (VEX)

and emergency paging to facilitate or-

derly evacuation of protected areas.

Voice evacuation systems are frequently

required by the Authority Having Jurisdic-

tion (AHJ) for areas of assembly such as

auditoriums, gymnasiums, places of worship, and large meeting rooms. IF610/VSYS

systems are suited to meet these needs and the requirements of NFPA 101 for New

and Existing Assembly Occupancies.

Systems are available in 25, 50, 100, and 200-watt configurations. The IF610 with

VSYS option can be configured for one to eight speaker circuits at up to 25 watts per

circuit. Each amplifier offers an independent power supply and battery charger with

a digital message repeater (VEX).

System Operation

The VSYS option is a flexible voice solution that can be sized to meet the job require-

ments by selecting the style and number of speaker circuits and the size of the am-

plifier. The system is also available with prerecorded digital message, and includes

emergency paging capability.

The VSYS includes a three-minute message restart, which occurs automatically after

a three-minute depression of the microphone key when the digital messaging op-

tion is used.

The VSYS Emergency Voice Evacuation System may also be ordered with multiple

speaker-circuit configurations. Circuit-splitter modules allow the amplifier power to

be divided among multiple zones for efficient use and controlled zone signaling.

Splitter modules are equipped with circuit-select switches that allow for manual

selection of voice evacuation zones for emergency paging. An LED is provided for

annunciation of each zone’s status.

Enclosures can house up to 200 watts of amplification, a paging microphone, digital

voice messaging, and one or two circuit-splitter modules for up to eight Class B (Style

Y) or up to four Class A (Style Z) circuits. Circuits are rated at 25 watts each. VSYS

provides an integral battery charger for its dedicated batteries. Supervised remote

microphones are supported by the system. Speaker circuits are controlled by indi-

vidual toggle switches. A circuit identification label is provided for field-customized

circuit labeling.
