System Overview - Honeywell X-618 Installation Manual

1 System Overview

The X-618 Public Address and Voice Alarm System provides a complete multiple sound source
public audio management solution. Centralized network management is achieved through the
system software, and all system states are monitored. The X-618 Public Address and Voice Alarm
System is hereby referred to as the "X-618" throughout the remainder of this manual.
The X-618 includes the following product components:

X-DCS2000/EN/X-DCS3000 Digital Integrated System Manager
The X- DCS2000/X-DCS3000 Digital Integrated System Manager is hereinafter referred to as
the "DCS". When describe specific installation requirement, we mention X-DCS2000/EN or X-
DCS3000.
The DCS is X-618 control equipment designed for expanding the number of loudspeaker
zones, and can support multiple sound source files for broadcasting. The system integrates
with functions such as the sound source file storage system, the network audio broadcasting
system, the loudspeaker zone control system, and the system for monitoring and diagnosing
faults.

X-DA1500/DA2250/DA4125/DA4060 High Efficiency Power Amplifier
The X-DA1500/DA2250/DA4125/DA4060 High Efficiency Power Amplifier is hereinafter
referred to as the "DA" or "X-DA1500/DA2250/DA4125/DA4060".
In the X-618 system, the DA is used to amplify audio signal power and drive many
broadcasting loudspeakers.

X-NPMI Configurable Network Paging Console
The X-NPMI Programmable Network Paging Console is used to page zones and control
broadcasts for the X-618 on an Ethernet network.

X-NPMS Configurable Network Paging Console
The X-NPMS Programmable Network Paging Console is used to page zones and control
broadcasts for the X-618 on an Ethernet network.

X-NRI Network Resource Interface
The X-NRI Network Resource Interface is hereinafter referred to as the "NRI" or "X-NRI".
X-NRI is external interface expansion control equipment in X-618. It has many kinds of audio
interfaces and control ports, so it can send the audio and control signal which from the
peripheral equipment through the Ethernet network to the X-618 system.
X-DCS3000 can connect with 8 main amplifier channels and 2 standby amplifier channels.
Following is the connection way of 4 amplifier channels:
