1. INTRODUCTION
The OPTIMUS DVA-102ETH unit is an Ethernet­controlled player of digital messages in WAV or OGG format.
The digital messages are stored on a 2 GB Compact Flash memory card, which is supplied together with the DVA-102ETH.
It occupies one unit of height in 19” Rack cabinets.
As an element of the OPTIMAX Public Address and Voice Alarm system, the following functions are supported:
Playing of the messages pre-recorded on the
Compact Flash card through the Ethernet link towards the OPTIMAX digital power units.
Recording of messages on the Compact Flash card
from the following sources:
- Local microphone input
- Ethernet link
Activation of messages and selection of zones to
which these are to be directed by means of:
- P.A. Manager Software, by means of Ethernet
commands
- Activation of local contacts
Reception of system alarms via IP and display of
these on the front LCD screen.
Another functionality of the DVA-102ETH is that it works autonomously, as a source of messages towards analog power units or as a link between an installation in an OPTIMAX network and conventional PA systems with analog power units. In the latter case, it supports:
Reception of audio via IP and transmission of this
through the analog audio output.
Playing of pre-recorded messages from the Compact
Flash card and transmission of these through the analog audio output.
Recording of messages on the Compact card from
the following sources:
- Local microphone input
- Ethernet link
Activation of messages and selection of zones to
which these are to be directed by means of:
- P.A. Manager Software, by means of Ethernet
commands
- Activation of local contacts
Translation of the zone selection commands received
via IP into RS485 commands (by polling in installations with UDCE-01 zones and by CSMA in installations with UMX-02/0 zones).
In installations with UMX-02/0 zones, reception of
the system alarms via RS485 CSMA and display of these on the front LCD screen.
Therefore, this unit adds more power to the management of pre-recorded messages in PA systems, and it perfectly complements the capacities of the OPTIMAX digital system, designed for PA and Voice Evacuation systems according to the European standard UNE-EN 60849.

4. CONFIGURATION OF THE RS485 ADDRESS
On an RS485 BUS, each unit must have a different address. Table I shows the configuration of the RS485 ADDRESS DIP switches and their possible values.
Table I
Page 9
DVA-102ETH version 1.2 R&D Department 9
Digital voice announcer
and Optimax system gateway
ATTENTION: When the unit starts to run, the dipswitches IP address is automatically saved in the DVA-102ETH flash memory. To change the address, it is necessary to delete first the IP address which is saved in the flash memory.
5. CONFIGURATION OF THE IP ADDRESS OF THE UNIT
On the back of the unit there are some DIP switches by means of which the IP address can be configured manually.
This address identifies the unit in the network, so each unit must have a unique IP address.
An IP address is represented by means of a 32-bit binary number. The IP addresses are expressed as decimal notation numbers: the 32 bits of the address are divided into four octets (an octet is a group of 8 bits). Each octet is represented by A0 to A7 for the first octet, B0 to B7 for the second octet, C0 to C7 for the third octet and D0 to D7 for the fourth octet.
Each bit can have the value 0 (DIP switch OFF) or 1 (DIP switch ON). In order to obtain the decimal value of the octet, the decimal values of each bit that is in the ON position must be added up (from the top down: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128).
5.1. UNIT IP ADDRESS CONFIGURATION BY MEANS OF DIPSWITCHES
1. Switch off the unit.
2. Set the required address in the IP Config dipswitches. Table II on the next page shows all the DIP switch combinations from 0 to 255.
3. Switch on the unit.
Figure 3 shows an example in which the IP address
192.168.100.128 is configured.
5.2. DELETE THE IP ADDRESS BY MEANS OF DIPSWITCHES
1. Switch off the unit.
2. Set the 0,0,0,0 address in the IP Config dispswitches.
3. Switch on the unit and after 15 seconds, switch it off. The IP address saved in the flash memory has been deleted.
NB: The IP address can also be set by software. To do so, refer to section 5.3.

7.5. INPUT CONTACTS
CONNECTION
The unit has 19 input contacts, which can be configured by means of the P.A. Manager software.
To activate a contact, this contact must be grounded.
These inputs are used for:
Local pre-recorded message activation:
When the input contact is activated, a pre­recorded message is sent from the DVA­102ETH to one or several zones.
Zone selection: When the input contact is
activated, a destination zone is pre­selected. When the priority of the AUDIO INPUT is activated, the signal applied to the AUDIO INPUT will be sent to this zone.
7.6. OUTPUT CONTACTS CONNECTION
The unit has 19 output contacts, which can be configured by means of the P.A. Manager software.
They are open collector outputs, as shown in the diagram in Figure 11. These outputs can be used, for example, to activate analog zones, to select zones of an MC12/24L, to activate the priority of external devices, to light a LED…

7.7. RS485 BUS CONNECTION
One of the DVA-102ETH functions is that it can act as a link between an installation in an OPTIMAX network and analog PA systems with UMX-02/0 or UDCE-01 zones and analog power units.
For this purpose, the DVA-102ETH must communicate with the various elements of the analog system (UMX-02/0, MD-500, MD-500EM, UDCE-01…) through an RS485 bus.
This communication allows to:
Translate the zone selection commands received via Ethernet into RS485 commands (by Polling in installations
with UDCE-01 zones and by CSMA in installations with UMX-02 zones).
Receive system alarms via RS485, display them on the front LCD screen and communicate them to other units
with an ETHERNET connection (DC-600ETH, FC-600ETH…).
RJ45 connectors with a metal housing are used for the RS485 connection.
If the unit is positioned as the first or last element of the RS485 bus, the RS485 OUT switch must be moved to the OFF position. Otherwise, the RS485 output must be enabled by moving the switch to the ON position.
Use category 5 FTP cable to connect different units to each other on the same RS485 bus.

b) Notes on Local and Global Co-ordinators
The system requires management of the digital audio channels at all times, so that the data may circulate freely across the network.
This function is performed by two applications: one at a local level, known as LCC, which manages the digital channels at PA Area level, and another, known as GCC, which manages the digital channels at a global level (between different PA areas and/or servers).
Each PA Area needs at least one LCC process on one of its equipment units.
If there is more than one PA Area in an installation, and announcements have to made or music programs have to be sent between PA Areas, a minimum of one GCC process is required on an equipment unit in the installation.
If the number of equipment units so permits, it is advisable to have each process available on at least two equipment units. In this way, the applications continue to work even when a fault in one of the equipment units occurs.
There are specific equipment to run these applications: CC-100ETH, UMX-CC and UMX-ETH (Control). It is recommended that they are the ones who made the role of coordinator. If these equipment are not present in the installation, it is advisable that the COU­02/0ETH, performs the functions of co-ordinator.
The recommended order of priority depending on the model is as follows:
CC-100ETH
UMX-CC
UMX-ETH
(Control)
COU-02/0ETH
SU-114N
SU-214/0N
UP-xETH

Sending pre-recorded
messages from the DVA-102ETH to the power units, activating these from the PC.
Sending audio from the DC-
600ETH desk to the power units (digital audio to the DVA­102ETH, and analog audio from the DVA-102ETH to the power units).
Selection of zones from the
DC-600ETH desk and from the PC, using RS485 communication between the DVA-102ETH and the UMX-02/0. The DVA-102ETH translates the zone selection commands received via Ethernet into RS485 commands. In this way the UMX-02/0 receives the commands and activates the outputs corresponding to the zones selected.
Through the configuration of
the input contacts of the DVA­102ETH (in the diagram, contacts 3, 4 and 5), an analog microphone with zone selection (MD-94R6) can be used. When a zone is selected from the MD-94R6 desk, the DVA-102ETH sends the zone selection commands via RS485 to the UMX-02/0, which activates the output corresponding to the zone selected.
Reception of system incidents and alarms by the PC, the DVA-102ETH and the DC-600ETH desk. This installation supports the broadcast of local music (UMX-2M > UMX2S > Analog power units). It is not possible
to play ETH music.

Configure the input contacts that will be used as zone selection of the MD-94R6 analog microphone (in this case contacts 3, 4 and 5), assigning them the Zone Selection functionality.
Assign a zone to the contact.
When a zone is selected from the MD-94R6 desk, one of these input contacts is activated, and when the message is started, the DVA­102ETH will activate the output contact corresponding to the zone selected.
Configure the input contacts (in this case contacts 1 and 2), assigning them the Local
Message Activation
functionality.
Select a message, the destination zones and the activation mode.
When one of these two input contacts is activated, the message selected will be sent to the zones configured in the Zones field.

11.4. DVA-102ETH AND ANALOG ZONES ACTIVATED BY CONTACT,
WITH LOUDSPEAKER LINE SURVEILLANCE
DESCRIPTION
The PC, the DVA-102ETH and the DC-600ETH desk are connected to the Ethernet network.
DVA-102ETH and DALA-01/0B are interconnected by means of an RS485 bus.
Three output contacts of the DVA-102ETH (contacts 1, 2 and
3) are configured to activate the
priority of the analog power units.
The system supports:
Sending pre-recorded
messages from the DVA-102ETH to the power units by activating the input contacts of the DVA­102ETH (in the diagram, CTI-1 and CTI-2).
Sending pre-recorded
messages from the DVA-102ETH to the power units, activating these from the PC.
Sending audio from the DC-
600ETH desk to the power units (digital audio from the desk to the DVA-102ETH, and analog audio from the DVA-102ETH to the power units).
Zone selection from the DC-
600ETH desk or from the PC, using the output contacts of the DVA-102ETH (in the diagram, Ct1, Ct2 and Ct3).
Through the configuration of
the input contacts of the DVA­102ETH (in the diagram, contacts 3, 4 and 5), an analog microphone with zone selection (MD-94R6) can be used. When a zone is selected from the MD­94R6 desk, the DVA-102ETH activates the output contact corresponding to the zone selected.
Surveillance of the status of the loudspeaker lines by the DALA-01/0B. The status of the lines is sent through the
RS485 connection to the DVA-102ETH, and this sends the data via Ethernet to the PC and DC-600ETH. RS485 communication between DALA-01/0B and DVA-102ETH supports CSMA or POLLING protocol.
Reception of system incidents and alarms by the PC, the DVA-102ETH and the DC-600ETH desk.

INSTALLATION STRUCTURE
CONFIGURATION
The configuration of the Contacts tab of the DVA-102ETH must be identical to the configuration in section 11.3.
Establish the RS485 address (this address must coincide with the value of the RS485 configuration DIP switch on the back of the DVA­102ETH).
The communication protocol selected (CSMA or POLLING) must coincide with the DALA-01 added to the installation (DALA-01-CSMA or DALA-01-POLLING).
Activate the RS485 Gateway control so that the DVA­102ETH acts as a link between the OPTIMAX system and the analog part of the installation (in this case, with the DALA-01).

12. NETWORK SPECIFICATIONS
The Optimax PA system supports audio and control data communication through Ethernet and IP networks. Since it works on levels 3 and 4 of the OSI scale, the Optimax protocol supports communication through routers (IP protocol) by means of the configurations of the gateways and subnetwork masks. Thanks to these features, Optimax can work on both LANs and WANs.
Most of the communications in the Optimax systems use multicast. Multicast is an effective means of providing transit services from one sender to many receivers. It is absolutely essential to exhaustively and rigorously check the network configuration in order to ensure that the system operates correctly.
The multicast networks include a wide range of protocols, from filter protocols (IGMP, MLD) to routing protocols (MOSPF, DVMRP, PIM-DM and PIM-SM/SSM).
Optimax incorporates an application-level control (ACK) (level 7 of the OSI scale) of the management data sent.
