• On VAR4/VAR12/VAR20:
The emergency class is used provide a visual indication when an emergency DVA message is playing,
and to control the VAR Router’s Remote Fault Output, when this is configured as ‘Emergency DVA
Active Indicator’, as follows:
− The “VOICE ALARM” message flashes on the left side of the LCD display, and the Remote Fault
Output is activated if an emergency audio input such as ALERT or EVACUATE DVAs is routed to
any output.
− The LCD display shows standard displays, and the Remote Fault Output is not activated if all
outputs are routed to non-emergency audio inputs such as Paging Microphones or music, or are not
routed.
L
Incorrect changes to this setting may result in an inappropriate indication of the emergency
DVA message status by the LCD display, and the Remote Fault Output when this is
configured for ‘Emergency DVA Active Indicator’.
• In an Intellevac Network:
The emergency class is also used by the ACU and any Zoned Fire Microphones connected to it to
indicate the emergency DVA message status of any zone group which is configured for a Zone Select
button. This indication is done by control of the zone’s ‘Busy’ and ‘Select’ LEDs, as described in Section
“5.4.4 Busy and Select Indication LEDs Mode (ACU and VAR8-ACU only)” (page 32).
In an Intellevac Network, the Mic/Line input class should be set to ‘Non Emergency’ regardless of
microphone type in order to provide the appropriate indication of the emergency DVA message status
on the ACU’s front panel.
