    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 5 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE 5.1 INTRODUCTION 5.1.1 PA CONFIGURATION, CARGO VESSELS Compact MPA system installations onboard cargo vessels, where GA is not integrated into the PA system have no require- ment for duplication. All loudspeaker loops shall be arranged as closed loops. 5.1.2 PA CONFIGURATION, PASSENGER VESSELS Compact MPA system installations onboard passenger vessels are required to be duplicated in order to minimize the effect of a single failure.
  • Page 20 User and Installation Manual Compact MPA To ensure this, the Compact MPA system makes use of the industrial standardized 100 V line distribution system. This is a dis- tribution system that is based on a fixed line level (100V) and where the loudspeaker output power is determined by means of loudspeaker type and power tapping.

  • Page 23: Amplifiers

    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 5.2.7 AMPLIFIERS The number of loudspeakers, their tapping (actual power output) and, in some cases, the zone segmentation determines the necessary number of amplifiers in the amplifier pool. In a fixed line level (100V) system such as the Compact MPA, the requirement for amplifier power is exactly the same as the loudspeaker output figure.
  • Page 24: Compass Safe Distance

    This is a part of the system setup and must be determined either in the factory (FAT) or during System installation and commissioning. Configuration of the GA characterisics is an option within the MPA 1600 web configuration facility, which is described in section 6.
  • Page 25: Power

    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 5.5 POWER The operating power is 115/230 VAC as primary, and 24VDC, alternatively 115/230 VAC as secondary. The Compact MPA system will automatically switch between primary and secondary power sources in case of power supply failure. A secondary power supply must be present at transition to emergency power supply in order to avoid the system boot sequence of approximately 30 seconds.

    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 6.8 CONFIGURATION – EXTERNAL ALARM INPUTS Figure 10: External Alarm Inputs The “External Alarm Inputs”-tab allows users to set the zone selection, alarm tone, alarm priority, synchronisation and other advanced options for alarm inputs from external systems. The External alarm input setup controls the zone or set of zones to include in the alarm, the alarm tone to use, the priority of the alarm and several advanced options.
  • Page 35 User and Installation Manual Compact MPA The activation parameter of the external input defines how long the input is to be considered triggered. If set to “Continuous”, the input is triggered as long as its state is asserted. If set to “Impulse” the input is triggered immediately when its state is asserted, and is not cancelled when the state is no longer asserted.

    „Please see the configuration-section for more details on how to set up the MPA1600. 7.3 OPERATING DESCRIPTION 7.3.1 EMERGENCY PAGING Emergency Paging (EM PA) is the highest priority paging method within the MPA 1600 system. 7.3.1.1 PRIORITY • EM PA overrides any audible entertainment channels within the system while active.
  • Page 42: Description

    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 7.3.1.2 DESCRIPTION EM PA messages are always broadcast to all zones/areas in the system. EM PA is initiated from the 1601, 1605, 1606, 1643 access panels, by means of the EM PA button. This button is distinguished by a red colour.
  • Page 43: Paging

    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 7.3.2 PAGING Normal paging (PA) is the second priority paging method within the MPA 1600 system. 7.3.2.1 PRIORITY • PA overrides any audible entertainment channels within the system while active. • PA overrides any external entertainment systems by means of an entertainment mute signal while active (see chapter 4.4 and 9.3).

    The tests will also show that the basic performance requirements (e.g. Signal Levels and functions) are met. These commissioning tests are targeted towards a IMO/SOLAS certified system and relies on the MPA 1600 to configured to comply with those requirements. Please see the Prerequisites section of the Operating Procedure for details on the necessary configuration options.

    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 8.4.2 MPA 1601/1643 TALK UNITS The 1643 unit is an EX variant of the MPA 1601 talk unit, and the procedure to test this unit is identical to the 1601. 8.4.2.1 NORMAL PAGING Paging may be performed in any combination of the six zones. Zones are selected by the MPA 1601 zone-keys, and activated by the PA-key.
  • Page 47: Priority By Normal Paging "Pa

    User and Installation Manual Compact MPA 8.4.2.4 PRIORITY BY NORMAL PAGING "PA" The MPA system is a single access system. Meaning that only one operator can use the system at any time. The priority is programmable by software. If operator I has higher priority than operator II, then operator I can override operator II. However, the operator II can override I with the use of Emergency PA (EM-PA) key.
  • Page 48: Mpa 1603 Alarm Panel

    8.4.4 MPA 1603 ALARM PANEL 8.4.4.1 ALARM SETTING The MPA 1600 can handle 4 different alarm types. The General Alarm is mandatory by the IMO/SOLAS specifications, the others are optional and thus of lower priority and significance. The alarms can be activated from the MPA 1603 alarm panel. All alarms will temporarily override any PA activity from any users.
  • Page 49: Failure / Warning Outputs

    In no cases should the sound level exceed 120 dBA. To ensure this, the MPA 1600 system makes use of the industrial standardized 100 V line distribution system. This is a distribution system that is based on a fixed line level (100V) and where the loudspeaker output power is determined by means of loudspeaker type and power tapping.
