LN, midiVES 8003 LN and 8003 LNR series connector panel miniVES LN series as well as midiVES 8003LN / LNR are equipped with extended xNET_mini 1GB/ WAN/RS network card. Extended interface provides additional POE port, 2 logical inputs/ outputs and 2 optional SFP ports for fibre or copper redundant connection.

Connecting midiVES 8003LNR with 8003R: For connecting midiVES 8003LNR with 8003R we can use a single set of 4x12V (VRLA) batteries which is shared between 8003LNR and 8003R. Please remember to set the capacity of the batteries on unit 8003LNR only and select no batteries option in 8003R when using the same bateries.
NOTE: Battery bank has to be connected before connecting main power supply. In case of disconnecting batteries and lack of AC power please wait 60 seconds for fully discharge of miniVES before the battery pack will be reconnected to the system. Improper connection procedure may lead to charger module damage.
Alarm mode Activating alarm mode Lift red button flap (alarm button “activate Evacuation”) and press it. However miniVES system is not equipped with the red button protected by the flap. That means that pressing once the red button on the front panel of miniVES activates the 5 seconds procedure (Evacuation button starts blinking RED) during which the system waits for second press of the button.
A flashing yellow FAILURE LED means that one of VAS central unit elements or a loudspeaker line is damaged. On miniVES devices and ABT-DFMS the system failure will be indicated by an acoustic signal. When the damage is signaled, press “confirm failure” button to mute the alarm sound, and the system will register that the failure was confirmed by the Operator (this event will be recorded in the event log).
