Description
The FireFinder XLSV is a digital Emergency Voice Alarm and Communication System designed to be used as a part of the Siemens Fire Safety FireFinder XLS Life Safety System. Its operation is fully integrated with the FireFinder XLS and programmed via a Windows laptop computer.
The system will respond rapidly to either automatic or manual commands from system logic or switch modules located on the command console(s). Digital Audio signals such as Evacuation 1, Evacuation 2, Alert 1, Alert 2, or page can be routed to any number of speaker circuits. A wide selection of microcontroller controlled tones with backup are available. One or more speaker and strobe circuits can be mapped to switches though the Zeus Windows based programming software. Switches can be used to manually activate or deactivate any zone. Through the use of multi­color LEDs a clear indication is provided showing which zones are active and linked to which audio channel.
The Live Voice Module (LVM) includes a dynamic micro­phone with push-to-talk switch and ready-to-page indicator light along with a small local speaker and volume control for monitoring audio signals. An optional pre-announce tone is also available.
In addition, the XLSV meets current NFPA code require­ments by providing another two digital audio channels available for background music and convenience paging.
As an option, the system can provide a Firefighter's Telephone that can provide both an "acknowledge" tone and a busy signal. Clear indication is provided at the command console as to which telephone zones are active. The Firefighter's Master Telephone provides a red master telephone with retractable coil cord and push-to-talk button.
