an industry first

Vigilon Compact Voice is ideal for small to medium applications requiring fire detection together with a compact VA/PA system. It is an integrated fire detection, voice and public address system that meets the requirements of EN54 and BS5839:part 8. The system comprises of an integrated analogue addressable fire control panel driving one or two loops of fire detection and alarm devices and a number of loop powered DAUs. The distributed amplifiers are connected to and powered from the analogue fire loops as required. A separate fault tolerant audio loop carries the live announcements for emergency situations and public address. The control panel has a built in emergency microphone and is able to accept inputs from a PA paging microphone and a background music source, e.g CD player.

Master Audio Control Unit

The Master ACU takes the form of a wall-mounted box fulfilling the primary function of a Voice

Alarm Control Panel.

The ACU features a keypad and

LCD display for configuration and fault reporting, and can be supplied either blank, with no further control functions, or with an integral emergency microphone and a number of configurable front panel buttons for zone selection, and

8 push button selectors for DVA broadcasts.

The ACU is able to interface with the Vigilon fire alarm system to facilitate centralised control. It is possible to connect a PC via an

RS232 interface for programming of the ACU itself, or any of the attached satellite DAU’s.

The ACU will automatically display the status of all connected DAU’s by means of the standard Fault

LED/ Sounder arrangement and with a cycling display on a local

(2x40) LCD.

If the blank version of the Master

ACU is supplied, in order to provide the same functionality, an additional Desk Console or wall mounted Emergency microphone can be provided in place of the on-board Keypad.

Ceiling Loudspeakers

This family of ceiling loudspeakers has been carefully designed to satisfy the most critical eye. The units are stylish yet unobtrusive and are supplied with a firedome.

The units are made from a pressed steel epoxy coated chassis incorporating a twin cone driver, which has a wider frequency range than the standard single cone alternative, making this range more suitable for use in applications where background music is a primary requirement.

Ease of installation is a key feature of these units, incorporating a user-friendly spring release action providing quick and easy access to transformer tappings once installed

20W Metal Column Loudspeaker 13421-51-DC



Spherical Pendant

Loudspeaker

This modern styled spherical loudspeaker is a true omnidirectional device. It provides coverage angles of 360 degrees horizontally and 140~160 degrees vertically giving an even dispersion over the audio spectrum. The smooth frequency response, excellent dispersion and carefully controlled performance means that they are ideally suited for covering large open spaces such as warehouses, open plan retail complexes, concourses and factories, as well as being suitable for both speech and background music. The 13421-

80-DC is supplied with a metal braided cable strong enough to carry ten times its own weight.

Metal Column Loudspeaker

The weather resistant metal column loudspeaker offers a combination of elegant styling, robust construction and high performance. The enclosure is tuned to give a wide frequency range not normally associated with column loudspeakers and as such produces high quality music and speech reproduction.

Ideally suited for use in airports, churches, factories, sports and conference centres.

Intellivox 4C Loudspeaker

Array

The Intellivox-4c is a fully integrated digitally controlled loudspeaker array and has been serving a wide variety of applications since its introduction in 1996. It has proven to be a versatile and effective solution for vocal reinforcement within reverberant venues, offering excellent speech intelligibility even in demanding acoustical conditions. A single Intellivox-4c is capable of covering an area of up to 65m whilst maintaining an even sound pressure level.

The seventeen, custom designed,

4” loudspeakers are driven by a sixteen channel class-D amplifier.

The loudspeakers themselves are arranged in accordance with our patented algorithm.

The increased lower frequency control offered by the array makes the Intellivox-4c suitable for easy and unobtrusive implementation in highly reverberant and architecturally sensitive environments.

The Intellivox units can be controlled using our proprietary

WinControl software that offers user friendly control of the beam steering parameters, audio processing and surveillance features.

Intellivox 1B Loudspeaker Array

The Intellivox-1b is the smallest member of the Intellivox DDC range. Despite its modest dimensions, the Intellivox-1b still offers remarkably tight directivity control and is capable of covering an area of up to 15m whilst maintaining an even sound pressure over the audience area. The six, custom designed, 4” loudspeakers and two dome tweeters are driven by an eight channel class-D amplifier. Its compact array length makes the Intellivox-1b suitable for easy and unobtrusive implementation in even the most architecturally sensitive environment.

IntelliGent

Inventive Intelligence from Gent!

The Power of Voice

Gent’s newly developed Vigilon Compact Voice is a genuine first - the first combined fire detection and voice alarm system to feature loop-powered amplifiers, and as such the first to be viable on smaller applications. This highly innovative but low cost package is an affordable proposition even for premises and building areas requiring as few as ten loudspeakers, though it can have up to 100. Moreover, it even doubles as a public address System and can be connected to an external music source to enhance the environment with background music. Indeed, it could be seen as a combined fire and PA system that offers high quality voice alarm at no extra cost.

See page 2 for more information.

Four

Devices in One

The new S-Quad sensor range is the most innovative solution to the detection and signalling of fires. Patented angle optical scatter smoke detection improves speed and integrity of detection. Combined with Vigilon’s true analogue processing and the ability to sense the presence of Carbon Monoxide, the S-Quad delivers extra assurance in detecting fires and a reduction in unwanted alarms caused by dust and steam. This advanced sensing technology is coupled with an integral sounder with speech capability and strobe in the same device making S-Quad a truly unique fire detection and alarm device.

See next issue of IntelliGent for more information.
