[. . . ] Vocia VA-2060, VA-2060e, VA-4030, VA-4030e Manual Biamp Systems, 9300 SW Gemini Drive, Beaverton, Oregon 97008 U. S. A. (503) 641-7287 www. biamp. com IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1) Read these instructions. WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. [. . . ] The pluggable terminal blocks provided will accommodate wire sizes from 12-18 AWG. External over-current protection must be provided, according to the current carrying capacity of the connecting wires, and in no case greater than 30 Amps. Do not ground or connect to chassis either the positive or negative Auxiliary Power connections. All CobraNet routing and bundle assignments are processed by the Vocia devices locally. A 100Base-T Ethernet switch (not repeater hub) is required when networking multiple units. CobraNet utilizes standard CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6 or CAT7 cabling, which has a specified maximum length of 328 feet (100 meters). Additional Ethernet switches, or switches that provide fiber-optic interface, can be used to extend the physical distance between units within a network. Please note that CobraNet limits network extensions to seven hops (one-way transmissions) within a network. The CobraNet network connection is configured with the primary connector on the left and the secondary (redundant) connector on the right. The primary and secondary CobraNet ports are provided to facilitate connection redundancy. Each connector provides two LEDs that indicate Ethernet link and network activity. 7 VOCIA AMPlIFIERS VA-2060, VA-2060e, VA-4030, VA-4030e REAR PANEl Table 1. CobraNet LED indication Left LED None None Flashing yellow Flashing yellow Flashing yellow Right LED None Green Green Flashing green None Description No data connectivity or CobraNet activity Link established Link established and CobraNet activity detected; unit acting as a CobraNet performer Link established and CobraNet activity detected; unit acting as a CobraNet conductor CobraNet fault; check cabling and configuration for errors Device ID switches The rotary ID switches are located on the back of the amplifier and give the unit a unique Device ID. All Vocia units of the same type must have a unique Device ID to function properly within a Vocia Paging World (for instance, it is not possible to have two Vocia devices of the same type with the same Device ID of hex 07). Note that VA-4030 and VA-4030e units represent one device type, while VA-2060 and VA-2060e units represent another device type. As an example, to assign a Device ID of hex 07, leave the MSB switch on 0 and turn the LSB switch to 7. To create an ID of hex B7, turn the MSB switch to B and turn the LSB switch to 7. Device ID switches should be set using a 0. 1 inch (2. 5mm) to 0. 12 inch (3. 0mm) flat blade screwdriver. More information on setting IDs and the hexadecimal numbering scheme used can be found in the Vocia Software Help File. Analog Audio Inputs with Phantom Power Option For the VA-2060e and VA-4030e, each amplifier channel has analog inputs that allow a local balanced microphone or line level background source to be delivered to the amplifier channel associated with that input. Two such inputs are available on the VA-2060e amplifier and four on the VA-4030e. Input sensitivity and 48V phantom power on/off state may be determined in the Vocia software. Because a local input may only be delivered to the channel associated with that input, if a local background source is required on two or more channels the source must be wired in parallel to each of the inputs.
