3 Structure and function 3.1 Description The Loop isolator (100V) PCA2005-A1 is used in voice-alarm evacuation systems with a loop topology. The Loop isolator (100V) monitors the speaker line from its loudspeaker connection to the speaker for short-circuit and open lines. The matrix monitors the loop for short-circuit, open lines and ground fault.
Planning Topologies Fig. 3: Loop with loudspeakers at loop isolators and loudspeakers between the loop isolators Loop without loudspeakers at loop isolators and with loudspeakers between the loop isolators It is also possible to use the loop isolators without loudspeakers at the Loop isolator (100V) itself.

Mounting, installation Wiring NOTICE Incorrect polarity and contact stability Defective module or open line. Take note of the positive and negative terminals when connecting to the Loop isolator (100V). Only connect one wire to each terminal. 4. Use cable ties to secure the cables to the Loop isolator (100V). 5.
Configuration Adjustment elements 7 Configuration The Loop isolator (100V) can only be configured in terms of hardware using the SIL switch. You will find more information on the system configuration in document A6V10429097 / A6V11474760. 7.1 Adjustment elements SIL switch SW1 is used to activate or deactivate various software functions. Changed switch settings are only updated after a reboot of the loop isolator.
