17 System settings
17.1 Introduction
The system settings are configured using DIP switches
on the rear of the voice alarm controller (see figure
17.1). By default, all switches are in the OFF position.
17.2 M on i t o r
If the Monitor switch (see figure 17.1) is in the ON
position, the internal monitoring loudspeaker of the
voice alarm controller is switched on. The volume of the
monitoring loudspeaker is set with the Monitoring
Speaker volume control (see figure 5.1, no. 36).
17.3 APR mode
If the APR mode switch (see figure 17.1) is in the ON
position, the system is in the Asian-Pacific Region (APR)
mode. In APR mode, the system operates according to
the emergency standards of the Asian-Pacific Region. In
the APR mode:
• The priority level of the emergency trigger inputs is
always 14.
• Emergency and business trigger inputs of the same
zone form pairs. The settings of the emergency
trigger input (software configurable) apply to both.
• The emergency trigger inputs are never supervised.
• When an emergency trigger input is activated, the
system enters the emergency state. The voice alarm
controller also automatically starts a pre-emergency
announcement and alarm message (software
configurable).
• When a business trigger input is activated, the
system enters the emergency state. The voice alarm
controller does not automatically start a pre-
emergency announcement and alarm message.
• The red LED, which during normal operation
indicates that the zone is selected for an emergency
call (see figure 5.1, no. 5), indicates that an
emergency trigger input is active.
• The green LED, which during normal operation
indicates that a business call is running in the zone
(see figure 5.1, no. 5), indicates that an emergency
call is running in the zone.
• The priority level of the emergency microphone of
the voice alarm controller is always 16.
• When the emergency button (see figure 5.1, no. 12)
is pushed on the front of the voice alarm controller,
an alarm message is automatically started. This
message is automatically repeated.
