SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Please, read carefully these safety instructions. 1. Save this User Manual for future reference. 2. The equipment must be connected to a bipolar power cut-off switch according to the low voltage regulation and must be accessible for disconnection. 3.
1 INTRODUCTION LDA ONE PA/VA system is certified according to the requirements of EN 54-16 and EN54-4, ensuring a safe and controlled emergency evacuation. Its high performance, versatility and audio quality make it a powerful and affordable music and voice distribution system for all types of installations.
General description Illustration 2: Control panel 1.1.1 Luminous indicators State indicators show in every moment the working condition of the equipment or system. They are located at the left side of the screen. a) PWR: “POWER”. Green On: when the equipment is powered from any of the possible power sources. b) EMG: “EMERGENCY”.
b) Direct access controls i) OK: Makes the indicator test by pressing the button for 2 seconds . ii) RESET/RST: Pressing this button for 2 seconds allows the user to restart the operating condition of the equipment when it is in either emergency or fault state. iii) BCK: Menu navigation: go up one level / return.
2 INSTALLATION The equipment allows the installation in wall or rack, and in vertical or horizontal orientation. Installation accessories are available to facilitate the installation procedure. To fix the equipment to the supports, 4 of the 8 outside screws of the equipment shall be removed.
b) Disconnection switches These switches cut the power path of the power supply and the battery. They help to avoid the danger of sparks when connecting the battery and it's useful for restart the equipment completely. 2.2.2 Battery installation Before installing the battery it is recommended to switch off the equipment using the switches in the supply circuit.

Illustration 7: Supervised CIE connection Illustration 6: Fire Central Interface Connection is made using female euroblock connectors given with the equipment. The → → cable section range for each pole of this connector is: 0,14 1,5mm2 (30 14 AWG). Inputs are activated when the dry contact is voltage free. (N.O.= normally open) a) Zone emergency activation inputs These inputs are connected the same way as the general entrance to allow link supervision.
They allow a maximum current of 350mA and a voltage of 350V. d) RS-485/MODBUS Interface Communication port on RS-485 half-duplex base for communication with fire control panel. It needs to be connected by 2 twisted wires (A, B) plus a GND wire. The port uses protocol MODBUS RTU and is used to connect a fire central with advanced commands.
2.2.5 Audio source inputs The system integrates 3 inputs for background music and/or microphones. See the audio inputs configuration for further details. At the side of each input there is a luminous audio signal indicator that activates with signal over -40dBV. The audio input connection is made by euroblock connectors that allow cable sections →...
The ACSI input integrates audio, communications and power allowing the emergency devices to be fed directly from the integrated backup source. The connection is made using standard UTP network cable T568B. The connection is made by bus, with a maximum connection length of 1000m. This input has a signal indicator LED for audio tests and a state LED that will indicate that there are connected devices.

Its future options will be to provide simple redundant...
3 CONFIGURATION AND COMMISIONING Once made the needed connections, the elements and options used in the system should be configured. Power supply Before activating system power, test previously service commuters that unable AC source inputs and battery, see Illustration 3. Connect the equipment to the electrical network.
File format is monochannel 16 bits PCM with sampling at 24 or 48 Khz LDA offers a free tool to convert audio files, you can find it int our support web page. 3.2.3 Advanced mode question The system ask about advanced mode yes or not option. In advanced mode user will be able to select A+B speaker lines configuration.
Manual configuration <Configuration> Configuration menu allows to adjust manually the system parameters, such as equipment number, zones, input and volume configuration, DSP adjustments, battery, messages, firmware, etc. 3.3.1 Audio Inputs a) Inputs #1 and #2 configuration: Vumeter: Input audio level indicator. (de -100 a 0 dBV) •...
3.3.2 Audio Outputs In this menu amplifier outputs, preamp outputs and LINK connection for slave equipmentare configured a) Amplifier Amplifier output manages the main amplifier and backup amplifier at the same time.

If there is a previous configuration, it overwrites the previous data. Import Sys CFG: It imports the data from folder DATAxx from the USB memory. •...
4 SYSTEM USE Main screen Main screen will show relevant information depending on the state as specified in EN54 standard. It will show the message PA/VA System <Ready> by default. When the emergency or failure state gets activated, it will show automatically the appropriate information screen.
4.2.1 Volume adjustment <Volume> The volume of the inputs and output amplifier (master) can be adjusted in this menu. The adjustment range of the inputs is -100dB to + 10dB. The amplification range is -100dB to 0dB The general volume can also be adjusted using the up and down buttons directly from the main screen.
Upper line: • ◦ Information from the actual list: FLT, EMG o SYS ◦ Number of visualized input/Total inputs in the LOG. ◦ Input selection can be changed with the right or left buttons. Lower line: Keys up and down change information. •...
5 SYSTEM MAINTENANCE This chapter explain some recommendations for correct system maintenance and some of common fails that we need to solve. Maintenance procedures: Check system fault Led and Logs. Weekly • Do a fire evacuation simulation testing. Monthly • Clean ventilation inlets of the cabinet.
5.1.4 Power supply The system will indicate a power failure in either of these situations: Main power: A fault has occurred in the main power supply (AC power). If this fault has occurred, check that the network power reaches the equipment. If so, check the output of the AC / DC source, it should give 15V.
EN54-16 functions ONE system controller implements all the mandatory functions contemplated in EN-54/16 norm. It also includes the following optional certified functions. 1. Audible advice 2. Phase evacuation 3. Voice alarm cndition manual silence 4. Voice alarm condition manual restart 5.
