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.

(9) Ground to chassis connection
(10) RS485 ADDRESS DIP switch
In mixed or analog installations, the DVA-102ETH communicates with the various elements of the SMP-250 system (SU-114N, UMX-02/0, MD-500, MD500EM...) through an RS485 bus. By means of this DIP switch a communication address can be assigned to the unit, inside the RS485 bus. Each unit connected to an RS485 bus must have a different address. To configure it, refer to section 4.

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
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.

NB: To view the page, it is necessary to deactivate the proxy in the configuration of the web browser.
ATTENTION
If the IP is activated by software, the functionality of IP address selection by DIP switches will be deactivated.
Once the change has been made, it can be undone by deleting the IP software via the web, or by selecting the address 0.0.0.0 on the DIP switches and restarting the unit.
ATTENTION:
Once the IP address of the unit has been changed, it is necessary to modify this in the P.A. Manager software as well (see section 8.1) and to send configurations to the unit (see section 8.6).
5.3. CONFIGURATION OF THE IP OF THE UNIT BY SOFTWARE
(Is necessary configure previously the parameters of the equipment according to paragraph 8)
It is possible to change the IP configuration of the unit by means of the IP ADDRESS DIP switches on the back of the unit or remotely, without the need for access to the unit, through the P.A. Manager software.
To make the change by software, right click with the mouse on the name of the DVA-102ETH on the message panel and select the option Web Connection
(1).
If the PC is remote with respect to the installation, open the Internet browser and enter the IP of the unit in the address bar (for example: http://10.1.1.2). This IP address is the address configured through the IP ADDRESS DIP switches situated on the back of the unit.
In both cases, a web page belonging to the unit will load.
Proceed as follows:
1. Enter the password in
the Administrator
Login (2) (contact
technical staff at Optimus and they will provide you with this) and click on Login.
2. Open the Expert menu (3) and click
on the Set IP address option (4).
3. Write the new IP in the IP Address field (5) (for example:
10.1.1.100) and click on Save IP Address (6).

7. EQUIPMENT CONNECTIONS
7.1. RECORDING MICROPHONE
CONNECTION
The unit has a mono female JACK input of 6.35 mm on the front to connect a microphone for recording messages. The input sensitivity is -60 dBm.
For its connection, refer to Figure 5.
7.2. AUDIO INPUT CONNECTION
Analog local input, balanced, with an RJ45 connector and a sensitivity of 0 dBm.
For its connection, refer to Figure 6.
Pin 1: Audio H (Hot).
Pin 2: Audio C (Cold).
Through contacts 1 and 2, this input can provide a “PHANTOM”-type power supply of 24 V DC. See section
6. INTERNAL CONFIGURATIONS.
Pin 3: Acknowledge. This output contact allows synchronisation with external desks (MD-94 family), avoiding initial signal loss from the desk due to possible delays in activation.
Pin 6: Priority input contact.
Pin 8: GND
When the internal jumper JP3 is removed (see section
0), the shield of the Cat 5 FTP cable is separated from the ground connection of the signal circuit. In certain installations, this makes it possible to eliminate alternating noises caused by ground loops.

7.3. EMERGENCY INPUT CONNECTION
Analog local input, balanced, with an RJ45 connector and a sensitivity of 0 dBm, especially suitable for emergency announcements.
This input has priority over any other signal from the unit.
The emergency announcements are activated when pin number 6 (speech preference) is connected to pin number 8 (GND) of the connector.
Although the DVA-102ETH may not be powered, the signal applied to this input appears in the AUDIO OUTPUT when speech preference is activated.
For its connection, refer to Figure 7.
Pin 1: Audio H (Hot).
Pin 2: Audio C (Cold).
Through contacts 1 and 2, this input provides a “PHANTOM”-type power supply of 24 V DC (see section 6) to power the emergency desk.
Pin 3: Acknowledge. Allows synchronisation with external desks (MD-94 family), avoiding initial signal loss from the desk due to possible delays in activation. Figure 8 shows an example of ACK operation between micro MD-94 and DVA-102ETH.
Pin 6: Priority contact of the live voice emergency message.
It is connected to pin 6 of the AUDIO OUTPUT (priority output) connector through the internal jumper J6 (see section 0).
Pin 8: GND.
By changing the configuration of some internal DIP switches (see section
6), this contact becomes an open collector output which is activated whenever the system detects an alarm.
