  • Page 10: Section 2.3 Amplifying The Audio Signal

    MPLIFYING THE UDIO IGNAL The AMG-1 and ATG-2 produce low-level tones or messages. To drive speaker circuits, the audio signal must be fed through an AA-30, AA-30E, AA-100, AA-100E, AA-120, or AA-120E Audio Amplifier. The output of the amplifiers is then fed to the modules that control the speaker zones (refer to Figure 2.3-1). The AMG-1 or ATG- 2 can drive up to 50 amplifiers per channel.

    Section Three: Audio Message/Tone Generators AMG-1 Audio Message Generator The Audio Message Generator (AMG-1) is the heart of the Voice Alarm System. This unit provides up to four digitally-recorded voice messages, each of which may be up to 24 seconds long. A built-in microphone allows paging through speaker circuits.

  • Page 16: Section 3.1 Operating The Amg-1 Audio Message Generator

    Section 3.1: Operating the AMG-1 Audio Message Generator The Audio Level LED is illuminated when the audio level is correct. When paging, talk loudly enough to cause this LED to illuminate. If the AUDIO Level LED is allowed to remain off for 30 seconds, a sys- tem trouble will result.

  • Page 23: Section 3.2 Zone-Coded Voice For The Am2020/Afp1010

    Section 3.2: Zone-Coded Voice for the AM2020/AFP1010 Zone-coded voice is a software version of the AMG that announces the annunciator point address that is in alarm. It may be used by the AM2020/AFP1010 system. The AMG will emulate standard annunciators. If the AMG cannot find the data for the desired tone, or if the VROM for the original voice message has not been installed, the AMG will beep to indicate that there is a problem.
  • Page 24 Zone-Coded Voice If VROM-A has been installed and contains the required voice segments, then any alarms will be processed as zone-coded voice. The AMG will broadcast the annunciator address number using digitally stored numbers (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, and 9). The number spoken will follow in the order of the annunciator point addresses. For example: Annunciator Point Number Spoken Address 2, Point 1...

    Appendix B: ACT-1 Audio Coupling Transformer General The ACT-1 Audio Coupling Transformer couples low-level audio to audio amplifiers or other audio inputs, such as the ATG-2 Audio Tone Generator. A single ACT-1 can be used to couple a low-level audio signal to up to eight devices in the same cabinet.
  • Page 50 Installation The ACT-1 connects to one of up to eight amplifiers on a given channel. Multiple ACT-1s are required for amplifiers on multiple channels. To install, connect the low level audio loop to the terminal block on the ACT-1 as illustrated on the next page. Then connect the ACT-1 to the first amplifier in the chain as illustrated.
  • Page 51 Note 1: Using the supplied cable, connect the "EARTH" ground terminal of each ACT-1 to terminal P8-10 on the AA-100/AA-100E or AA-120/AA-120E or to a screw on the upper left corner of the AA-30/AA-30E. The "COM" terminal is intended for optional shielding of the secondary side of the ACT-1 (the low level audio from the ACT-1 through each of the amplifiers).
