When repairing devices with microprocessors (EV-5000, EV-PAGE and EV-REL), the general precautions and actions reagarding electrostatic discharge have to be taken.

This appliance may only be used in accordance with its intended purpose: Audio Matrix in a public address or voice alarm system.

6. General Information

The EV-5000 is a Public Address and Voice-Alarm Matrix, which operates all necessary supervisionfunctions in a slim 1 unit housing according to EN 60849. You can connect several callstations and release emergency-announcements, stored evacuation-signals, chimes and background muisc.

All sound files are stored on a SD Flash Memory card for easy handling.

The EV-5000 is the smart choice for a wide range of applications such as schools, convenience stores, factories, office buildings or hotels. In the minimal setup the system is working cost-effective with only 1 main-amplifier and a backup-amplifier. In this mode it is possible to implement 4 paging zones. It is possible to realise projects with additional relay-boards due to its 4 line outputs, or if even more zones are required, up to 10 EV-5000 can be linked together to control up to 80 speaker zones.

The EV-5000 detects all connected components by an automatic set-up run. The identified items are clearly shown on the display and will then be supervised completely by the system.

According to the EN 60849 standard the following documentation must be available respectively records have to be kept:

1. User Manual

2. System Documents

3. Operation Log

4. Maintenance Record Keeping

Please refer to the mentioned standard for further details.

9. Installation

– see overview page 4 –

9.1 Power Supply

The device is designed for use with 230V AC 50 to 60 Hz mains power. Power can be switched ON/OFF by the rear side mains power rocker switch. A backup power providing 24V DC can be connected via a 2-pole pluggable screw terminal. The rocker switch only breaks the mains power, not the 24V backup power. Both power sources are monitored by the system. If during the installation run there is no backup power source connected, the presence of the 24V DC power source is not supervised. Powering from a 24V DC source only is not possible, since the system will generate always an error message as soon as mains power fails, regardless what the state was during the installation run.

9.2 Connection of Power Amplifiers

Amplfier inputs have to be connected to the OUT CH1...OUT CH4 pluggable screw terminals, the backup amplfier to the OUT SPARE connections. All outputs of the EV-5000 are transformer coupled (balanced and floating) for trouble free operation. Therefore the cable shields have to be connected at one end only. The following drawing shows some wiring for balanced and unbalanced amplifier inputs:

These samples are valid for amplifiers, which are earthed by a 3-pole mains power cord and plug. If all-insulated (double isolation, 2-pole mains power plug) amplfiers are used, which have also no GND connection via a backup power supply, the shield must be connected on the EV-5000 side (GND screw terminal) too. The amplifier outputs (100V types only) are to be connected to the AMP IN1...AMP IN4 inputs and SPARE AMP IN input respectively.

9.3 Connecting Speaker Lines

Speaker Lines are to be connected to the CH1 OUT...CH4 OUT terminals.

CAUTION!

For error free functioning of supervision, the minimum load has to be 10 Watts per zone at 22 kHz. Please be aware that speaker impedances are frequency dependent, so each line has to draw 10 watts at 22 kHz not at 1 kHz. If it would be less, please connect a resistor 1 Kiloohm/10Watts in parallel to the last speaker on the line. Maximum power must not exceed 800Watts/100V per zone.

9.4 Connecting Call Stations

The fireman call stations can be connected to the rear side pluggable screw terminals (EV-EVAC1, Fire Mic1) or to the front side DIN connector (5-pole, 180°, Fire Mic2) for EV-EVAC MIC. Pin layout is as follows:

Pins 1 + 3 = MIC capsule Pins 4 + 5 = switch input (PTT) Pin 2 = GND, shield

The subzone call stations EV-P4 are to be connected to the so designated pluggable screw terminals or to the RJ45 connector. Up to about 30 EV-P4 can be connected in parallel. The RJ45 connectors pin layout is the same as the screw terminals:

1 = BUSY 2 = GND 3 = Capsule (CAP) hot 4 = Capsule (CAP) cold 5 = Key1 6 = Key2 7 = Key3

8 = Key4 The cable length with EV-EVAC1 and EV-P4 can be extended up to maximum 500 Meters. Of course only well screened and twisted pair cable has to be used such as communications installation cable F/UTP 4x2x0.8mm or CAT5/6. Due to analog signal type, there will be a high frequency cut when extending cable length to more than about 200 Meters.

The EV-PAGE call stations (80 channel) are to be connected as well to pluggable screw terminals as to a RJ45 connector. Up to 8 EV-PAGE can be connected in parallel. The RJ45 pin layout is also the same as the screw terminals:

1 = +15V DC

2 = GND (0V[15V])

3 = RS485 +

4 = RS 485 –

5 = GND

6 = EVAC

7 = Capsule (CAP) hot

8 = Capsule (CAP) cold Maximum cable run is 200 Meters. Only well shielded twisted pair telecommunications cable may be used such as F/UTP 4x2x0.8 or CAT5/6. It is possible to extend the cable run up to 500 Meters, if the DC power supply (normally 15V DC) will not drop below 14V at any call station. If so, please add further pairs of wire in parallel to the supply leads. Here is also valid: cable runs with more than about 200 Meters will cause a high frequency loss.

9.5 Connecting Program/Background music sources and AUX with request contact

The IN PRG cinch connector is the input for program/background music. Line sources with a 0 dBu (=0.775B RMS) level are to be connected. The AUX cinch connector is for line sources providing a dry contact for request such as a spotplayer for instance. Line level has to be 0.775V RMS too. The contact must be wired to AUX screw terminal and GND.

9.6 Further Control Inputs

To start stored alarm messages (for instance evacuation) the screw terminals EMY1 and EMY2 (against GND) can be used. The message is running as long as the control input is shorted to GND. All wiring is monitored, this is why 2 resistors have to be added to a switch as shown below:

ic audio

EV-5000

The chime (for breaks) and a stored message (for instance shop closing announcement) can be started by an external control key (normally open, NO). The corresponding screw terminals are designated CHIME and MSG (message). They have to be wired against GND. These control inputs are not supervised and therefore no resistors are necessary.

9.7 Relay Contacts EMY and ERR

The dry contact designated EMY (emergency, normally open, NO) is active during an announcement via a fireman call station or during a stored alarm anouncement (evacuation) run. The EMY dry contacts are useful for energising priority override relays for instance. Furthermore this contact is active on the installation run. An ERR called dry contact (Error, normally open, NO) is active on all error messages from the system. This is intended to control indicator lamps for instance.

9.8 Cascading, Master/Slave Operation

If the amount of zones is not adequate, Master/Slave systems can be configured. Up to 10 units (1 Master and up to 9 Slaves) can be cscaded by 2 RJ45 connectors (CASCADE) in each unit for simple looping in.

CAUTION!

Each unit (Master and Slave) must have its own backup amplifier. The backup amps ouput power must be the same as the most powerful operational amplifier.

All EV-PAGE callstations are to be connected only to the master unit and not to any slave. However the EV-P4 callstations can be connected to both Master and Slave units and will call to zones connected to each unit only. It is not possible to make calls via EV-P4 from Slave to Master, from Slave to Slave or vice versa. Of course EV-PAGE can call in all zones.

If AUX-input, Message and Chime (for breaks) should be started in all systems at a time, the control contacts and the AUX audio signal inputs have to be paralleled. For activating stored emergency announcements in Slaves, a separate alarm switch (with resistors for monitoring) has to be installed each. As an alarm announcement is started in a Master unit, the Slaves will start as well in zones and with levels as programmed in the particular Slave unit and with sound files as recorded on their SD-card.

All error messages coming from Slaves will be shown globally in the Master unit as „SLAVE SYSTEM“ and in the respective Slave with there detected details. Errors coming from a Master unit will not be shown in Slaves.

The maximum length of the interconnection cable is limited on a few meters only, that is to say all units have to be mounted into the same rack. Each unit can be configured as Master and Slave by setting internal jumpers. If one unit only is used, it has to be jumpered as a Master. Please find below two images, which show Master and Slave configuration. The yellow arrows point at jumpers to be set, whereas the yellow rectangles indicate pins which will stay open.

10. Setting up the System

After having assembled all components ready for use, the input sensivity of all power amplifiers have to be adjusted to 0 dBU (= 0.775V RMS) for 100V of output voltage. The deviation of this must not exceed ± 3 dB, that is to say the input sensivity has to be within 549 to 1095 Millivolts RMS for 100V of output voltage.

Very Important! After that, the installation run has to be started under full operational condition of all components ( = all wiring completed, all power switches ON) in the system as follows:

Press the PROGRAM key Press Key T3 Enter password = 3x pressing PROGRAM key consecutively Press again key T3

As to be seen in the display, the installation run will start. If Slave units are present, these devices will start their installation run at the same time, but the run can also be started separately for each Slave in the same way. All connected components will be detected, shown in the display of the central unit and installed. After accomplishing the installation process, the following components are supervised: EV-EVAC1, EV-EVAC MIC, the EV-PAGE cables in case of allocated address, alarm control switches, power amplifiers, speaker lines, mains- and battery voltage.

If for instance an amplifiers fails, within 100 seconds there will be an acoustical warning (buzzer, siren) and the error is indicated in the display. The backup amplifier will automatically be switched in place of the defective operational amplifier – both input and output. When not starting the installation run, no monitoring will take place and some of the system components will not function. To stop sounding the siren press the PROGRAM key, then key T2 (reset) and after that key T1 (= siren OFF). After having repaired the defective amplifier, a reset has to be made. In order to do so, press the PROGRAM key again, then key T2 and once again T2 (LINE RLAYS). The error will be resetted, the before faulty amplifier will be switched back to normal operation.

11. Programming the central unit EV-5000

When switching ON the unit, the version number is shown in the display for a short time,

then the following screen appears:

This means on LINE1 (zone1) background music is switched ON and the system works without any errors = OK.

11.1 User adjustable parameters

By pressing key T1 to T4 the background music status is indicated. If after the LINE-colon only space characters are to be seen, background music for that zone is switched OFF. The following user definable volume levels can be adjusted by the VOL key:

Music Music MA (music master) Chime Message AUX

By means of the UP / DOWN keys all volumes are to be modified. If the display shows something like - - , the related sound source is switched OFF. The switch OFF function is only available in the so called programming menu (described later) and thus not to be altered by a user. When for a certain amount of time no key is operated, the display will fall back automatically to the opening menu.

With key T1 actual errors were shown, with key T2 the previous errors.

Key2 brings to the following sub menu:

with key1 the siren (buzzer) can be stopped. If a new error will occur, it will continue to sound. With key2 all activated zone relays were resetted.

Key4 starts display of the MP3 card sound files

Finally with key3 the non user accessible programming menu opens.

11.2 Functions to be adjusted by the installer

Pressing key T3 will prompt for a password. The password is: press 3 times one after another the PROGRAM key

After successful login, the following screen appears:

n T1 goes to the sub menu for adjustment of the functions of preannouncement chime,

short to earth, impedance, short circuit, open line, alarm start, impedance tolerance, measuring mode.

Pressing T1 once again appears:

Pushing T2 selects the kind of control for starting the stored ermergency announcenments. In the first case switch input 1 (EMY1) controls emergency announcement 1 and switch input 2 (EMY2) emergency announcement 2. In the second case both switch inputs will control emergency announcement 1. Pressing T2 will toggle between the two modes.

Pressing T1 again appears:

Pushing button T2 several times will toggle between normal and small tolerance of impedance measuring.

Pressing T1 once agin appears:

T1 switches the AUX input (without using the request control line) permanently active. This function is very useful for testing voice intelligibility. To stop this mode push the PROGRAM key, whereon the system returns to the opening menu.

T2 switches back directly to the opening menu.

T2 Adjustment of all volume controls

Besides the items shown in the users menu

The procedure is the same as on the users menu, but the password has to be entered first

and the items not available in the users menu can be adjusted here in the installers menu.

This covers also complete switch OFF of sound sources. All adjustments have to be done

separately for all 4 line outputs.

T3 Installation Run

After pressing T3 the installation run is executed. All connected operational components of

the system will be detected and installed. The parts of the system to be supervised are then

permanently checked for malfunction.

T4 Programming audio outputs and line relays

After pushing T4, the following display will appear:

Pressing T2 generates the following screen for programming 80-channel callstations: For pressing T1 (Alarm1, Alarm2, Message [MSG], Chime, AUX, Fire MIC) and T3 (sub zone callstations EV-P4) the same procedure is effective. By pressing T1 the call key number will be raised, GC (= group call), zone 01, 02, 03,...and so on. By T3 the related audio outputs were selected and by T4 the line relays.

Pressing T3 thereafter the following screen will appear: This means here that all 4 audio outputs to amplifiers will be activated. By T3 single outputs were selected and T4 will set or clear them.

Pressing T4 the following screen appears: Here it is defined, which of the 4 line relays are activated.

Caution!

In a standard configuration as shown on page 4, the line relays have to be cleared – no numbers set. This will continue backgroundmusic on the not adressed zones during an announcement. In the following special examples 12.1 and 12.2, programming has to be done different according to the requirements of these configurations. Because of supervision, here the line relays have to be programmed inverse, that is to say in zones, in which a call

should go, the relays stay not energised. In zones, where the call should not be heard, the relays will be energised and so switch these zones OFF. For programming

line relays this means, that always relays have to be activated, which have to switch OFF zones. In the screen shown above the call will sound in all 4 zones.

By programming each single key of the callstations individually with audio and relay switch functions, it is possible to generate single call and any combination of zones for group calls and all call. When using EV-REL relay cards, those have to be programmed additionally by means of their DIP-switches – see chapter 21 EV-REL.

The subzone callstations EV-P4 cannot be used together with EV-REL relay cards.

Pressing the PROGRAM key will always return to the previous menu.

12. Special Setups

12.1 Sample configuration with one amplifier driving 3 zones

In this sample two operational and one backup (spare) amplifier are applied. Please keep in mind, if a call goes to zone 2,3 or 4 the background music will be stopped in all these zones. Of course zone 1 will not be affected.

Programming for distributing a call in zone 3 for instance shall be executed as follows:

Activate audio on CH2, on all other channels audio has to be deactivated. Energise relays 2 and 4 as a call goes to zone 3.

As already mentioned, relays have to be activated, which must switch OFF zones. In principle the same is valid for emergency announcements or inhouse messages (MSG) for instance.

During a call, switched OFF zone speaker lines were connected to the backup amplifier by the line relays. The backup amplifier provides for the check tone too, so that switched OFF zones are monitored permanently.

12.2 Sample configuration with several power amplifiers connected to one audio output

In the above sample several amplifiers are connected to one of the audio outputs (OUT CH1...OUT CH4). The system will of course detect only one joint amplifier, but the supervising functions will be maintained. If one of the operational amplifiers fails, it will be replaced automatically by the backup amplifier.

13. Functions when connecting a Personal Computer

With a PC it is possible to display comfortably all programming and adjustments without checking all menus and submenus with the exception of item 5 and 7 below. Therefore no special software is needed, a simple terminal software such as Windows Hyperterminal will do. First a PC COMport is to be connected to the RS232 port of the EV-5000 via a null-modem cable (reversed). Start the terminal software and ajust the following parameters:

Bits per second 9600 Data bits 8 Parity none Stop bits 1 Protocol none

To call for the function menu enter „i“ – without the quotation marks of course. The following screen appears:

15. Priorities

Each audio source is allocated to the following fixed priority levels – 1 = highest, 10 = lowest:

1. Fire MIC 1 = fireman MIC connected to rear side pluggable screw terminals

2. Fire MIC 2 = fireman MIC connected to front side DIN-connector

3. Emergency announcement 1 (EMY1)

4. Emergency announcement 2 (EMY2)

5. AUX with request

6. Message (MSG)

7. EV-PAGE 80 zone call station

8. EV-P4 sub zone callstation, 4 zones

9. Chime

10. Background music

Running lower priority sources like chime and EV-P4 do not initiate a busy status in the EV-PAGE call station. The EV-PAGE callstations among each other have block mode priority, that is to say the first activated EV-PAGE in a system has priority, all others were busy and blocked. EV-P4 callstations among each other have no priority. So if keys at two EV-P4 were pushed simultaneously, both will be active. Please observe the busy signalling LED before pushing a call key when using an EV-P4. An active higher priority audio source will trigger busy status, which is indicated by a quickly flashing busy LED in EV-P4 and by showing BUSY in the EV-PAGEs display. An EV-P4 sub zone call station connected to a slave unit can make calls in its slave system at the same time, as another EV-P4 on a master unit shall do. There is no interference one to another.

16. Soundfile Card

All sound files are stored on a SD-card inside the device. The system can play MP3 or wave sound formats. For MP3 files a bit rate of 128 Kbit/s, sample frequency 44.1 kHz, Mono or more is recommended, which will provide nearly CD sound quality. The sequence of the files on the SD-card has to be absolutely maintained, since the system accesses the files on the basis of the sequence:

1. 16 kHz test tone

2. Preannouncement chime

3. Emergency announcement 1

4. Emergency announcement 2

5. Message

6. Chime for breaks

In order to edit sound files, first the device has to be disconnected from all power supply, both mains and 24V DC battery power. After removing the cover, the SD-card can be extracted and inserted in a SD card slot of a computer. Concerning the sequence, please be aware that most operating systems (Windows too) do not show the true sequence. When copying files please proceed as follows:

ic audio

EV-5000

1. Save file 1 = 16 kHz test tone – this file must be first and original file on the card

2. Delete all files on the SD card

3. 16 kHz test tone mark, copy and paste

4. Preannouncement chime mark, copy and paste

5. Emergency announcement 1 mark, copy and paste

6. Emergency announcement 2 mark, copy and paste

7. Message mark, copy and paste

8. Chime for breaks mark, copy and paste After reinserting the SD card into the EV-5000, the sequence can be checked by pressing the PROGRAM key and then T4. The file numbers and the file names are displayed one after another. The file names may contain up to 8 characters. The 16 kHz test tone has to be placed first and as original sound file on the card, it is stored also first on the card on delivery. Each of the 6 above mentioned storage places have to be recorded. If places are not used, store empty sound files instead. Sound files should have a 1 second pause at the beginning – with the exception of the test tone of course.

17. EV-PAGE 80-Channel Call Station

The comfortable call station EV-PAGE can address up to 80 zones. By means of a numeric keyboard and a display all functions can be operated very comfortable. Additional there are control keys for single call, group call and all call as well as for programming and starting emergency announcement 1. Busy status is shown in the display as clear text and by a red luminous ring on the gooseneck microphone. The programming function – to be accessed via the PROGRAM key – allows also for switching ON/OFF the background music, labelling zones for indicating in the display and the allocation of an address. Pressing the PROGRAM key will show in the display:

Pressing key 1 will switch ON/OFF backgrond music for all zones simultaneously. ON/OFF will toggle cyclically on each push.

By means of key 3 the first 44 zones can be labelled to be displayed on the EV-PAGE:

That means: Zone 01 is labelled ZONE. By key 0 the next zone to be labelled can be selected. By key PROGRAM the cursor is moved and by key ALARM the menu is left. When leaving, all entries are stored automatically. To enter texts, the numeric keys are multiple used, characters can be chosen by several pushing a key:

Key 4 allows for allocating an address to the call station. Addresses can be selected in the range of 00 to 08. If 00 ist assigned, the ALARM key has no function, whereas the addresses 01 to 08 will unblock the ALARM key for starting emergency announcement 1 (EMY1).

That is why this setting has to be adjusted by the installer only!

It has absolutely to be avoided to enter the same address double in a system. After modifying an address, the so called installation run has to be started – see chapter 10. As the alarm start function is then enabled, also the data lines of the EV-PAGE are monitored.

Procedure for allocating an address:

1. After pressing the PROGRAM key press and hold key 4.

2. Pess the PROGRAM key and hold it as well

3. Release key 4, then release key PROGRAM After each key sequence, the address number will be increased by one: 00 - 01 - 02...08 - 00 - 01 and so on.

18. EV-P4 Subzone Call Station

Subzone callstation for addressing up to 4 zones. There are 4 calling buttons as well as a LED to indicate a busy condition. Programming zones has to be done in the EV-5000 central unit. Any zones can be defined, also several on one button, all call included. The busy LED gives notice, if the call station is ready to use. Quickly flashing indicates that a preannouncement chime, an emergency announcement or a message is just running as well as another call station is active or the AUX input is requested. An active fireman call station is indicated by continuous lighting. The busy signalling has to be observed to avoid two persons talking at a time, since the EV-P4 have no priority function among each other. Of course in busy state coming from a higher priority sound source, talking is blocked.

19. EV-EVAC 1 Fireman Desktop Microphone

Fireman desktop call station equipped with an all call key. This call station has highest priority. The dynamic capsule and the control leads are monitored.

21. EV-REL Relay Card

Relay card for extending zones and for getting additional switch functions

Pin Layout of Relay Contacts:

C = Common

NC = Normally closed

NO = Normally open

All 4 relays have identical pin layout and each provide for 2 changeover contacts.

The relay card EV-REL is an open board to be built in a housing or in a rack. A flange mounted bracket allows for fast and easy fixing on mounting rails (DIN rail 35x7,5 or 35x15mm). EV-REL provides 4 relays (R1...R4) with 2 dry changeover contacts each. It can be controlled by the 80-channel MIC bus of a EV-5000 Master and/or 5 control contacts. For easily inserting into a call station bus, 2 parallel RJ45 sockets are available.

Each relay can be programmed by means of DIP-switches. By switching speaker lines in inverse mode, the supervising functions from Master/Slave units will be maintained. Power has to be supplied by an external 24V DC source, for instance by a mains adaptor or by the continuous output of a battery manager.

Please find below a block diagram EV-REL:

EV-5000

The device consists of the following functional units:

1. 4 decoder units, which accept commands from the 80-channel call station bus 4 DIP-switch blocks, which distribute the decoder outputs to the 4 relays

2. 5 DIP switch blocks, which handle the contact inputs also for EV-P4, 4x zones and 1x busy

3. 1 decoder for global commands, which control all 4 relays simultaneously

So there are 10 selectable switch functions, which can be allocated optional to each of the 4 relays. Indeed one relay can be assigned to multiple switch functions, as well as one switch function can control multiple relays at the same time.

21.1 Application of EV-REL for extending zones

Data coming from the 80-channel bus are fed to 4 decoders, consisting of an 8-pole + 4-pole DIPswitch and an evaluation electronics. By the 8-pole DIP switches the binary address is defined, to which each decoder will be sensitive to. The 4-pole DIP-switch distributes the decoders output to the 4 relays. The following code table contains the binary codes for each available function – D8...D5 most significant byte, D4...D1 least significant byte. So if a decoder should switch relays as the message (MSG) is running, the following address is to be entered:

98H = 1001 1000 or D8=1, D7=0, D6=0, D5=1, D4=1, D3=0, D2=0, D1=0

Thereby means 0 = DIP switch OFF and

1 = DIP switch ON. The related 4-pole switch matrix will define the relays to be energised, in the adjacent sample these are relays R1, R3 and R4.

As already explained, for inverse function of line relays control, the not active lines have to be switched. So in this example the message will only be heard in the zone, which is connected to relay 2.

Attention!

The global decoder has to be set to address AAH as the EV-REL is used for extending the number of zones in inverse programming mode – see following list of codes. In the inverse mode the global decoder can no longer be used for global functions.

The inverse mode will cause all relays to be energised on all cards, as soon as a call key is pressed on the EV-PAGE. Single decoders take priority over the global decoder, in that way that relays for programmed speaker lines remain not energised and so signals will be heard on just these lines.

Furthermore the PRIO - input of the contact switch matrix has to be connected to GND.

This will change the PRIO 4-DIP-switch block into a relay selector switch for group call (group call key on EV-PAGE). The DIP-switches R1 to R4 below PRIO determine relays, which switch after pressing the group call key. Here too inverse programming has to be performed. In the adjacent sample the call will go to lines connected to relay 1 and relay 3.

Switch inputs T1 to T4 cannot be used in inverse mode (address AAH set at global decoder)!

Hence EV-P4 call stations cannot be used together with EV-REL relay cards.

21.2 Application of EV-REL for getting additional switch functions

Besides using EV-REL in invers programming mode for extending zones, it can also be applied in normal mode for getting additional switch functions. Any switch functions can be implemented, for instance to trigger control lamps or priority override relays, switching illuminations and so on. The global decoder then can have the code lists second page addresses too (of course not the AAH!). At the single decoders 1 to 4 – as in inverse mode – addresses from the subsequent list of codes can be set as described before. The global decoder has no switch matrix, its output will always energise all 4 relays at the same time. In addition to the 80 channel bus, in normal mode the inputs of the contact switch matrix T1 to T4 and PRIO can be used. These inputs can be connected to the switch outputs of the EV-P4 subzone call stations for instance. Each of the 5 inputs is to be routed via a 4-pole DIP-switch to the 4 relays. The switch inputs have high level (+5V) when not activated and are to be connected to GND for activation.

Sample: If relay 2 should switch as input T4 will be grounded, at DIP switch T4 R2 (relay 2) is to be set to the ON position. All other switches have to be set to the opposite (OFF) position.

22.2 Expansion by means of relay cards

Adding up to 20 EV-REL maximum 80 zones can be addressed.

There are some limitations using relay cards: At all EV-REL connected to one 100V line output of EV-5000, background music is switched off as soon as only one zone is addressed. The reason for this is, that one amplifier cannot transmit two different signals (Call and BGM) at a time. Of course this is not valid for the remaining three zones of the EV-5000, to which no EV-RELs are connected.

Attention should be paid to the fact, that EV-P4 subzone callstations will not work together with EV-REL.

22.3 Expansion with one Master and up to 9 Slave units:

In that case up to (1+9)*4 = 40 zones can be established without using EV-REL. Background music and calls can be transmitted individually per zone without interfering each other. Each Master and each Slave unit must have its own backup (spare) amplifier. For each Slave there are now additional functions and further accessories can be connected: 1 preannouncement chime individually switchable at Master and Slaves. So preannoucement chime can be switched on at Master and switched off at Slaves or vice versa.

2 stored emergency announcements 1 AUX-input with contact activating (request) 1 stored message 1 chime for breaks 1 program/backgroundmusic input The preceding additional Slave sources can only be used in the respective Slave unit. They cannot be routed to another Slave or to the Master unit.

Up to 30 EV-P4 per Slave, the Master can have also up to 30 EV-P4 simultaneously. EV-PAGE and EV-EVAC have to be connected to the Master unit only.
