messages or you can even order your own personal
messages (MDV-PMK) up to eight (8) with not totaling
more than 2 minutes.
B. The SAPE-1AR can be ordered with the SMK
consisting of eight messages or you can order a Program
Message Kit (PMK) with your own eight (8) custom
messages or with ordering additional PMK's (up to 7) you
can get up to 999 message files not totaling more than 8
minutes.
C. The SAPE-2AR is a field programmable unit that
includes 2 minutes of PSRAM Memory.You can have up to
999 message files by adding up to 7 MEM-2 IC Chips
which

ou a total of 16 minutes.
2 "Am I able to use your SafePath to power my
paging speaker system that I already have
installed?"
No. You can not use standard paging speakers on the
SafePath because the speakers have to be designed to
work with supervisory circuits. Standard speakers do not
have the circuitry required for supervision.
3 "Can I record my own messages on your
SafePath?"
Yes. You can record your own messages on the
SAPE-2AR Multi Circuit SafePath with the DX-200.
4 "Instead of messages can I have tones from my
SafePath?"
Yes. Wheelock will program the chip set (PMK) with the
tones you require.
5 "Can your SafePath be used as a paging system
as well as voice evacuation?"
Yes. All you need to order is the AIM-3 module. This unit
will let you feed a page port or unused co port to the
SafePath for paging. Note: page port will require a contact
closure in addition to the audio.
6 "Can I also use the SafePath for weather alerts as
well as fire?"
Yes. It is just a matter of activating the contact input on the
voice message board. You must have that message
recorded on the unit.
7 "Will the SafePath work with 25 or 70.7-volt
speakers?"
Yes. It will work with both 25v and 70v speakers providing
they are supervisable.
8 "I have a movie theater with 4 different rooms
that require a voice evac system. I want to have
the capability to notify only one room at a time.
Can the SafePath do this?"
Yes. The Multi Circuit SafePath has this type of function to
where the message will play over only one amplifier at a
time.
9 "I have a job site that needs a specification for a
voice evacuation system. I’ve never done a job
like this. Can I send in my blue prints for the job
to
g
et some hel
p
?"
Yes. You can send the blue prints into our applications
department where we will work up a specification for the
project at no additional charge.
