GENERAL PURPOSE BROADCAST
Recorded CF Card Messages
Messages can be recorded on the CF card using the EV-350R. In the EV-350R, a series of messages is
called a "program," which is called a "message" when played back using the EV-200 and VM amplifier.
Up to 8 Messages (programs) are available, with Nos. 1 - 5 intended for general-purpose broadcasts,
Nos. 6 - 7 for emergency broadcasts, and No. 8 for pre-announcement chime tone broadcasts.
Message (program) Nos. 1 - 5
Messages for general-purpose broadcasts are recorded. Recorded messages or chime tones are played back
at preset times using an external timer. These messages can also be broadcast to groups programmed into the VM
amplifier by pressing the Remote Microphone's Activation button.
Message (program) Nos. 6 - 7
Emergency messages for alert and evacuation are recorded.
For Message 6, the recorded alert message is broadcast 5 times (in the example below) in repetition to
permit investigation of the source of the emergency situation during the broadcast.
[Message example]
"Attention please. The fire alarm system is indicating a fire. We're now investigating the cause.
Please await further instructions."
For Message 7, the recorded evacuation message is played back without end even if the Number of
repeats setting wouldn't be set as ENDLESS.
[Message example]
"There is a fire. Please evacuate as quickly as possible."
Message (program) No. 8
Standard equipment on the VM amplifier includes 6 different types of chime tones, however other types of chimes
can be recorded on the CF card.
NOTE: The EV-350R permits more than 8 messages to be recorded, however no more than 8 messages can be played back
on the EV-200.
