Emergency Communication System Operation
During JumpStart, the ECS-VCM or ECS-NVCM is automatically associated with the internal annunciator. To associate other LOC units in
the system, you must perform it in programming.

10.7 Using the Microphone

10.7.1 Microphone Functionality
Each microphone in the system is capable of providing convenience, fire or emergency paging. A convenience or fire page can be made any-
time the Emergency System does have System Control (see Section 9.4.1). When the Emergency System has been activated and has System
Control, the user must gain ECS Control to do an emergency page.
The microphones are housed within the ECS-Series panel enclosure and the ECS-LOC/ECS-RPU cabinets. A maximum of eight micro-
phones can be installed in the system.
10.7.2 Custom ECS Event
This event is activated by gaining ECS control at a LOC and using the microphone without any ECS event already active in the Manual ECS
State. In this case, the Mic-Triggered ECS Alarm mapping and General ECS Alarm mapping will be activated and stay activated until a dif-
ferent ECS event is activated at the LOC or the user resets the Emergency Communication System.
10.7.3 Fire Page
A fire page can only occur when any of the following events occur.
• Only the Fire System is active.
• Both Fire and the Emergency Systems are active and the highest priority active fire event is programmed to be of higher priority than
the highest priority active emergency event.
• Only the Fire System is active, the user has gained ECS control, and custom ECS event is a lower priority than the fire alarm.
NOTE: If Fire and Emergency Systems are active and the Emergency System is of a higher priority, a fire page is NOT allowed. An LOC must
gain ECS Control in order to do any live voice.
10.7.4 Emergency Page
An emergency page can occur when:
• Only the Emergency System is active and the user has gained ECS Control.
• Both Fire and the Emergency Systems are active and the highest priority active emergency event is programmed to be of higher priority
than the highest priority active fire event and the user has gained ECS Control.
• Only fire system is active, the Emergency LOC Alarm priority is higher than the active fire system event and the user has gained ECS
Control. This will trigger the ECS system and enable mapping for 'Mic Triggered ECS Alarm' and 'General ECS Alarm'.
10.7.5 Paging
If there are no active emergency or fire system events, the microphone at an LOC can be used for paging by following these steps:
1. Push the PTT (push-to-talk) button on the microphone.
2. Use the Select Keys on the LOC to toggle the output areas to page to with the microphone (illuminates the green LEDs).
NOTE: The Ready to Talk LED will illuminate after an output area has been activated.
3. Speak into the microphone.
4. Release the PTT button when finished.
