Handbook page 39 of 89 Doc.No.: 03118-000-OP The MPA 1603, 1605, 1606 and 1643 is also equipped with 3 additional Alarm buttons for activation of optional alarms. These alarms will all have lower priority than the GA and thus be overridden whenever a GA is initiated.
Handbook page 40 of 89 Doc.No.: 03118-000-OP GA overrides Emergency PA temporary in case EM PA is active before GA is turned on as a temporary guarantee for GA notification. (EM PA will then be able to re-activate and override GA as normal and with highest priority) o When the system is occupied the Zone buttons indicators of the Control Unit (MPA 1601 /1604/1605/1606/1643) will light up red.
Handbook page 41 of 89 Doc.No.: 03118-000-OP 2.10 ENTERTAINMENT The MPA1602 (optional) can have up to 2 entertainment sources. This can be either two CD-players. Or one CD-player and an external source like TV or video signals. Both sources can be distributed to any of the 6 zones.

BRIEF SYSTEM DESCRIPTION General The Public Address & Alarm system is designed, produced and delivered by Zenitel. The delivery comprises centralised equipment mounted in racks, as well as equipment for installation throughout the vessel / platform.
TEST PLAN Test philosophy An internal Pre-FAT testing of the Public Address System will be conducted at Zenitel's premises prior to the FAT. The Pre FAT test results will be available during FAT. The client will thus have the option to select only a number of Access units and Amplifiers for verification, as testing of all interfaces is very time consuming.

Page 61
Handbook page 59 of 89 Doc.No.: 03118-100-CO 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.
