11.4 EVS Point Functionality
Any input point in the system can be configured as an EVS input. The Point EVS 1-8 Alarm input types can be used to trigger predeter-
mined EVS events for output areas. EVS-VCM, or EVS-RVM points can be programmed to trigger Voice Aux events that can allow
external audio to be played through the emergency system.
11.4.1 EVS Point Activations
EVS points can only activate outputs and be placed into an alarm state if the system is not in Manual EVS State. EVS points have no pri-
ority and all are allowed to be activated. If the EVS point is a higher priority than the Fire System, then the system will play the highest
event message through all EVS mapped outputs.
For example: Emergency 1 Point Alarm is higher priority than Emergency 2 Point Alarm. Emergency 1 Point Alarm has message 1
mapped to through groups 1 and 2. Emergency 2 Point Alarm has message 2 playing through groups 2 and 3. If a point for Emergency 1
Point Alarm and a point for Emergency 2 Point Alarm are both active, the system will play message 1 through groups 1, 2, and 3.
Once Manual EVS State is active, points in Alarm state switch to an Active state. When the points are changed to the Active state, they
do not activate any system mapping or turn any outputs on. Any points that are activated while in Manual EVS are also placed into the
Active state and are not allowed to activate any mapping. The system idle screen will show an EVS Alarm for any points in the Active
state, and the detailed description of the point will show the point as Active.
After an EVS Reset, any EVS points that are still active will again be put into Alarm.
11.4.2 EVS-VCM & EVS-RVM Points
The EVS-VCM and EVS-RVM modules contain two programmable input points. These also have the ability to be programmed as a trig-
ger for bringing external audio into the system. These special point types are: Voice Aux EVS and Voice Aux Status. When activated, if
the event has the highest Event Priority of all activated events, these points will activate the Aux In input to all outputs defined by the
respective event program mapping.
NOTE: Background Music is only allowed to be mapped to circuit 8 of the EVS-100W amplifiers to ensure correct active supervision.
11.5 Amplifier Programming
11.5.1 Adding an Amplifier
To add a new amplifier to the system, follow these steps:
1.
Enter the installer code. The panel will automatically go to the main menu.
2.
Select 7 for Program Menu.
3.
Press 1 to enter Module menu.
4.
Press 2 to add a module.
5.
From the next screen, select desired amplifier.
The screen will display "Adding module [#]..." for a few moments. You will be
returned to the <New Module Type> screen where you can select another module if desired.
You must save changes when you exit the Program Menu or the new module will not be added. For more information see section
9.2.2.
If you Add a Module that has not been physically connected, the panel will go into trouble after it re-initializes (when you exit the
Program Menu with changes accepted). When the new module is attached, the trouble will restore automatically the next time you
power up the FACP.
11.5.2 Editing an Amplifier
When editing amplifiers, the features that may be edited are (dependent upon amplifier model): module ID, module name, EVS-CE4
Exp installed (Yes or No), output voltage, and amp mode. To edit an existing module:
1.
Enter the installer code. The panel will automatically go to the main menu.
2.
Select 7 for Program Menu.
3.
Press 1 to enter Module menu.
4.
Press 1 to edit a module.
5.
Use the up or down arrow to select the module you wish to edit.
6.
Press the right arrow or ENTER to move to the next selection.
11.6 LOC Programming
Device Priority is a programmable option for each of the EVS devices:
•
EVS-VCM
•
EVS-RVM
Each device is assigned a Priority level: Low, Normal, or High.
