Redback® A 4565B Evacuation Controller
2.0 SETUP GUIDE
2.1 MANUAL, AUTO AND ISOLATE MODES
The unit features 3 modes of operation.
These are Auto, Manual and Isolate, selectable via the keyswitch on the front of the unit. The switch is keyed to a 003
standard key profile, and will allow removal of the key in the "Auto" position only.
Manual Mode:
In the manual position any of the Alert, Evac or Bell functions may be initiated from the switches on the front panel. (Note
the Alert, Evac, Bell and Cancel buttons may need to be depressed and held in for 2 seconds).
Paging is also operative in manual mode through the A 4660 Paging Console or the front panel microphone input. This
allows the operator to select any of these functions as required.
With the key in this position the rear panel contacts are all inoperative except for the Bell contact.
Manual Operation:
ALERT MODE: Depressing the Alert switch will activate the Alert mode and play the MP3 file located in the Alert
Folder on the Micro SD card. The Alert tone is played three times in an Alert cycle on a rotation basis and will ascend
in volume. If an Alert Message is available in the Alert Message Folder (see section 2.6) it will be played twice for every
three cycles of the Alert tone. This cycle will continue until either the Cancel switch is pressed or the Evac switch is
pressed (which will activate the Evacuation mode).
The alert tone can be changed to an evacuation tone at any stage of the Alert cycle simply by depressing the evac
switch.
EVAC MODE: Depressing the Evac switch will activate the Evacuation mode and play the MP3 file located in the Evac
Folder on the Micro SD card. The Evac tone is played three times in an Evac cycle on a rotation basis. If an Evacuation
Message is available in the Evac Message Folder (see section 2.6) it will be played twice for every three cycles of the
Evac tone. This cycle will continue until the Cancel switch is pressed.
BELL MODE: Depressing the Bell switch will activate the Bell tone. The Bell tone will play the MP3 file located in the
Bell Folder on the Micro SD card.
Auto Mode:
When selected to the auto position the panel will respond to any trigger from the rear contacts of the unit. This could be
the Alert, Evac, Bell, Fire or Cancel trigger which could be triggered from a Fire Indicator Board or Break Glass Alarms, etc.
In the auto position the front panel alert, evac and cancel controls are inoperative. But all other functions will work, i.e..
front panel microphone paging, bell (front or rear )and music inputs on the rear of the unit whether they be the BGM or
Aux inputs. In Auto mode the Alert, Evac, Bell, Fire Test and Fire switches on remote plates and the paging console will all
function.
Auto Operation:
ALERT MODE: If the Alert tone is triggered it will activate the Alert mode and play the MP3 file located in the Alert
Folder on the Micro SD card. The Alert tone is played three times in an Alert cycle on a rotation basis and will ascend
in volume. If an Alert Message is available in the Alert Message Folder (see section 2.6) it will be played twice for every
three cycles of the Alert tone. This cycle will continue until either the Cancel trigger is activated, the Evac trigger is acti-
vated (which will activate the Evacuation mode) or the Alert/Evac switchover preset time is reached (at which stage the
unit will automatically switch into Evac Mode).
The alert tone can be cancelled by pressing the cancel switch on a remote plate or the paging console, by triggering
the rear contacts of the A 4565B or by using the key to put the unit into manual mode and then pressing the cancel
switch on the front of the A 4565B.
EVAC MODE: If the Evac tone is triggered it will activate the Evac mode and play the MP3 file located in the Evac Fold-
er on the Micro SD card. The Evac tone is played three times in an Evac cycle on a rotation basis. If an Evac Message is
available in the Evac Message Folder (see section 2.6) it will be played twice for every three cycles of the Evac tone. This
cycle will continue until the Cancel trigger is activated. The Evac tone can be cancelled by pressing the cancel switch on
a remote plate or the paging console, by triggering the rear contacts of the A 4565B or by using the key to put the unit
into manual mode and then pressing the cancel switch on the front of the A 4565B.
BELL MODE: Depressing the Bell switch will activate the Bell tone. The Bell tone will play the MP3 file located in the
Bell Folder on the Micro SD card.
Isolate Mode:
This isolates the unit so that the Alert,Evac, Fire or Fire Test functions cannot be activated either by the front panel switch-
es, the rear contacts, the remote wall plates or the A 4660 paging console. The Bell function is still operational.
