System Definition

ONYX Digital Voice Command [DVC] is NOTIFIER's new digital audio system with: Audio evacuation Paging Firefighter's telephone

Eight channels of quality audio for: Live emergency paging Simultaneous broadcasting of multiple stored

messages


System Definition

ONYX DVC broadcasts simultaneous, unique messages throughout your entire facility or select designated areas

ONYX DVC provides critical information or instruction in an emergency

ONYX DVC ensures the right people have the right information at the right time during the following: Smoke Fire Intrusion Chemical spill Weather event

Digital vs. Analog Audio



What does “Digital” mean? Audio Messages are transmitted digitally over the

Audio Riser Distortion resistant Unlimited distribution without signal degradation

Multiplexed single circuit operation Multiple audio channels with output control



Analog Source Analog low-level audio output

Analog Audio is vulnerable to distortion in: Recording Signal processing Line Loss External Noise induced on cables Amplifier and transformer non-linearity

Digital Voice Diagram

In digital voice, digital signals are transmitted with negligible distortion. Digital signals are repeated perfectly at each node. Each amplifier starts with a perfect digital signal

Features


True Digital for Unparalleled Clarity

From message storage to amplifier, everything is digital to eliminate distortion

Up to 32 Digital Audio Amplifiers can be connected to a DVC center

Each DAA is configurable as a primary or backup amplifier

DAA is a powerful 50 Watts in either 25 Volt or 70 Volt versions with four outputs per amplifier.


Large Number of Audio Zones

Larger applications can be accommodated with additional DVC centers

Each networked DVC adds support for another 32 DAA series amplifiers

Applications requiring hundreds of zones can be created by networking additional DVC centers over NOTI•FIRE•NET™


Network for Survivability and Scalability

Multiple DVC centers can be networked together with seamless integration into NOTI•FIRE•NET

NOTI•FIRE•NET with DVC provides: Added survivability and scalability Multiple command center support System expansion


Paging Over the Fire Alarm Network

Every DVC has an interface with NOTI•FIRE•NET

One channel audio over NOTI•FIRE•NET allows for network-wide live paging

Allows one DVC center to page over the whole system when multiple DVC centers are networked.


Multiple Paging Options

Preprogrammed multiple paging groups are standard with DVC New Group Paging Options

Page Active EVAC areas Page Active ALERT areas Page Inactive areas All Call

Option to page Inactive Areas to simply notify occupants of a potential emergency.

Each group of occupants receives customized information


DVC Keypad for Simple Group Paging


Firefighter’s Telephone

Up to five channels of simultaneous Firefighter's Telephone operation

Crucial scene assessment information can be gathered more quickly for: Improved response efforts Increased safety of both building occupants and fire service

personnel


Large Memory Capacity

Memory capacity of up to 1000 audio sequences storage

16 minutes standard of stored audio messages expandable to 32 minutes

Store customized audio sequences for any potential emergency/evacuation messages.


Customized Audio Messages

Comes with a standard library of messages

Message library speeds installation and simplifies maintenance

Record, edit, and distribute your own custom messages or tones as standard .WAV format audio files

No more locked-down libraries and no need to change memory chips


Custom Audio Messages Creation


Microphone Options

Local paging microphone option and Remote Microphone (RM-1) option.

Flexibility to page on site or from remote location to further enhance communications and life safety.


Backup Alarm

Alarm Bus backup activation in the event of communication loss between (DAA) and DVC center.

Two minute backup message storage

Alarm Bus initiates backup Emergency Message
