a)
PTT (Push-To-Talk) and Speak Now LED connections are only required if the ASL hardware bypass emergency
microphone functionality is being used (with inputs 1 or 2 of ASL Voice Alarm Routers).
b)
Refer to BS7671 (Requirements for Electrical Installations) or other appropriate local standards for guidelines on
maximum potential cable lengths given the actual installation parameters.
1)
Excessively large RJ45 cables will not fit the strain relief guides. RJ45 plugs with excessively bulky rubber boot will
not fit the connectors on the MPS properly; see cable and rubber boot dimensions in Figure 1 (page 8).
!
!
Suitable CAT5 patch leads are supplied with the microphone (ASL P/N 208440).
2)
Emergency Microphones that are used as location for display of mandatory EN 54-16 indications and controls
should have dual power supply: one power supply connected to ROUTER 1 port, and the other power supply
to ROUTER 2 port.
3)
Headset microphone cannot be used in emergency mode.
4)
For EMC compliance:
•
Screened cables must be used where specified.
•
All screen tails must be less than 3 cm.
