2. System Features
Modular System Offers Connection to Various Sound Sources.
The VX-2000 System Manager features 8 input slots that permit the use of various input sources with the
selection of corresponding modules.
Up to 8 Remote Microphones Can Be Connected.
• A total of 8 RM-200X and RM-200XF Remote Microphones can be connected to the VX-2000. Up to 4 RM200XF units can be installed.
• RM-210 extension capability permits the number of Remote Microphone function keys to be increased to up
to 105 keys per unit.
• The system can be configured for up to 305 function key settings.
Sound Source Devices
• Up to 2 EV-200 units can be connected to the VX-2000.
• The VX-2000 features 4 different chime sound sources.
Standard-Equipment Control Input and Output
The VX-2000 features 16 control inputs and 16 control outputs as standard equipment.
Expansion to Up to 50 Output Zones
The VX-2000SF Surveillance Frame can be expanded to up to 5 units, increasing the number of available
output zones to up to 50 zones.
Control Input and Output Modules, and 2 Types of Speaker Output Modules
• The VX-2000SF is designed to accept up to 10 modules. The control input module, control output module,
and 2 types of speaker output modules are available.
• Speaker output modules feature failure-detection circuitry. Two failure detection methods are provided:
impedance checking and pilot signal monitoring. Such failure modes as speaker line shorts, open circuits
and ground faults can be detected.
• With the addition of extra control input modules and control output modules, the number of control inputs
and outputs can be expanded to up to a total of 128 terminals within the system. (Sixteen terminals are
included as standard equipment in the VX-2000.)
9-Band Graphic Equaliser Card
Provides 9 bands of computer-adjustable graphic equalisation to the system's speaker output module.
Standby Amplifier Function
A standby amplifier can be installed for each VX-2000SF to automatically provide substitute amplifier output
should the main power amplifier fail.
CPU OFF Switch
Enables broadcast from the RM-200XF Fireman's Microphones to all output zones even if the system's main
CPU fails.

Individual Block Failure Detection Circuitry
• This failure detection function monitors cable connections between the Remote Microphones and the VX2000, between the VX-2000 and the VX-2000SF, between the VX-2000SF and the VP power amplifiers, and
between the VP power amplifiers and the speakers.
• The function detects and warns of such failure modes as blown fuses or overheating in the VP power
amplifier.
• Can detect and indicate failure of the VX-2000DS' charging circuitry, or battery irregularities.
Failure Indication
• The failure LED indicators for the VX-2000, VX-2000SF and Remote Microphone light when any failure is
detected within the system.
• The failure indication function can be assigned to the Remote Microphone. When assigned, the LEDs flash
and a buzzer is sounded if a failure is detected.
Monitoring Function
The sound output of a selected output zone can be monitored using the Remote Microphone's internal
speaker or the VX-2000's monitor output.
Time Schedule Function
• A weekly schedule can be programmed.
• Up to 40 specific day programs can be set for any desired date and time.
• A summertime period can be set by either the system's PC software or the VX-2000's Summertime Setting
switch.
Energy Saving Mode
Battery consumption can be reduced by using the VP power amplifier's standby function (since the entire
system's power consumption is reduced by putting unnecessary power amplifiers in standby mode).
PC Setting Software
PC software is used to select input and output equipment, or set priorities, broadcast patterns, items to be
activated, etc. Various functions can also be freely assigned to the Remote Microphone' s function keys.
PC Software Provides Versatile Auxiliary Operation
• The VX-2000's memory can log up to 2,000 events, which can be read into a PC.
• System block diagrams and individual equipment settings can be printed out using the VX-2000's PC
software.
• Remote Microphone function key names can be printed out and used as name labels.
• System configurations and connections can be checked during equipment installation.
• Inspection mode permits inspection of emergency broadcast equipment operations without actually making
broadcasts.

5.2.8. VX-2000DS Cautions on Cable Connection to the Battery Terminal
Cable end treatment
Usable cable diameter:
To secure the connection between the battery terminal
and cable, be sure to use the cable of specified
diameter and treat its end shown at right.
Cautions on cable connection to the battery terminal
• Before connecting the battery cable to the battery
terminal, be sure to fully open the cable clamp by
turning the terminal screw counterclockwise.
Battery terminal
Cable clamp
• Strip the cable end long enough to be fully clamped.
Otherwise, its outer jacket prevents the cable
conductor from being tightly secured, causing poor
contact.
CorrectIncorrect
Terminal screw
Incorrect
Fully open.
Too narrow to
clamp the cable
6 – 1/0 AWG
Cross sectional area:
16 – 50 mm
2
Stripped length: 30 mm ±5 mm
Insert the battery cable into the correct position in the
•
battery terminal referring to the terminal's cross sectional
diagrams below.
Correct position of the cable insertion
Cable conductor
Cable clamp
Incorrect position of the cable insertion
Wrong insertion position of the cable or a forked
cable insertion causes poor contact or insufficient
connection tightness, making the cable come off
to possibly cause short-circuit accident.
Connecting the Battery
Step 1. Insert the positive battery cable into the VX-2000DS' rear-mounted BATTERY POWER IN positive
terminal from the bottom side of connector, then tighten the terminal screw with a flat screwdriver.
Note
Never connect the negative cable first to avoid accidental short between battery's positive and
negative polarities if the positive cable should contact the unit chassis or equipment rack.
Step 2. Connect the negative battery cable to the negative terminal in the same manner as Step 1.

Disconnecting the Battery
Step 1. Loosen the VX-2000DS' BATTERY POWER IN negative terminal screw, then pull out the
negative battery cable.
Notes
• Never remove the positive cable first to avoid accidental short between battery's positive and
negative polarities if the positive cable should contact the unit chassis or equipment rack.
• Insulate the exposed end of removed cable with insulator such as insulating tape to avoid
shorting to the other cable.
Step 2. Remove the positive battery cable from the positive terminal in the same manner as Step 1.
Note
Insulate the exposed end of removed cable with insulator such as insulating tape to avoid
shorting to the other cable.

Here, an example of sequential operation with an EV-200 mounted in the VX-2000 is explained.
Sequential Operation
Sequential operation consists of Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Sequence Phase 1 operates upon emergency system activation. When the set time interval elapses, the
broadcast is automatically switched to Phase 2.
Setting Contents
Both the broadcast messages and output zones are set for Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Assuming that these phases are set as follows:
Phase 1: The alert message is continuously broadcast for 5 minutes to each floor of each building.
Phase 2: The evacuation message is continuously broadcast to the entire zone.
Alert and Evacuation Message Examples.
Alert Message:The fire alarm system has been engaged. We are now checking the cause.
Please wait for further information.
Evacuation Message: There is a fire. Please evacuate immediately.
Step 1. Background music (BGM) is
broadcast to A-GF (Building A
ground floor) and B-GF (Building
B ground floor) when the system
is in general-purpose broadcast
mode.
Step 2. The sensor installed on A-3F
detects irregularities, and the fire
alarm system transmits a control
signal to the control input.
The emergency mode is activated
and BGM stops, allowing the alert
message to be played through to
A-3F.
installed on A-2F and A-4F detect
irregularities and the fire alarm
system transmits a control signal
to the control input. Broadcast
zones are added, and the alert
message is also broadcast to A2F and A-4F, as well.
Step 4. After the set 5-minute time
interval elapses, the message is
automatically switched from
Phase 1 to Phase 2. Broadcast
zones change to the "entire zone"
and the evacuation message is
broadcast to the entire area. The
evacuation announcement
continues until the Remote
Microphone's restoration key is
pressed or a restoration signal is
transmitted from the connected
fire alarm system.
