XPIQ Quad Intelligent Audio Transponder is a simple solution for distributed multi-
channel voice evacuation systems. It is an integrated, multiple channel audio amplification and
distribution subsystem remotely controlled by an FACP via the SLC (Signaling Line Circuit). It
can direct up to four low level audio signals from the risers to four audio amplifiers. The amplified
audio signals are then directed to up to four integrated, continuously supervised speaker circuits.
The XPIQ is compatible with the following control panels:
NFS-3030 AFP-400 AFP1010 NFS-640
AFC-600 AM2020 AFP-300
