User manual BIAMP VOCIA INPUT

[. . . ] As part of the Vocia system, the VI-6 meets paging requirements for facilities of all sizes. FEATURES · Four sets of dual RCA connectors, plus terminal block connectors for line-level inputs · Four control inputs and four control outputs · Two microphone/line inputs with phantom power · Software-configurable local audio signal processing, including gain, filters, and compressor/limiter · Rotary switches for unit identification · CobraNet audio/control with dynamic use of available bundles, plus power over single Ethernet cable · Status LEDs to indicate signal and clip · CE marked and RoHS compliant · Covered by BIAmp Systems' warranty 3 VI-6 frOnt Panel Setup and Use The Vocia software provides an intuitive interface for configuration, DSP equalization, and programming of the VI-6. [. . . ] All VI-6 units must have a unique Device ID to function properly within a Vocia Paging World (i. e. , it is not possible to have two VI-6 units with the same Device ID of hex 07). To assign a Device ID of hex 07, turn the LSB switch to 7 and leave the mSB switch on 0. To create an ID of hex B7, turn the LSB switch to 7 and turn the mSB switch to B. 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 in Vocia can be found in the Vocia Help File. Please note: Changes made to the Device ID while connected to the network require a power cycle in order to take effect. All CobraNet routing and bundle assignments are processed by the Vocia devices locally. Vocia devices are currently not interoperable with non-Vocia devices. 5 VI-6 rear Panel cOntrOls This connection carries control data, power, and digital audio over CobraNet. The maximum distance between any unit and an Ethernet switch is 328 feet (100 meters) when using copper cabling. Additional Ethernet switches and/or fiber-optic cable can be used to further extend distances between units on a network. please note that CobraNet limits network extensions to seven hops (one-way transmissions) within a network. If other network traffic shares an Ethernet switch with the Vocia network, a managed switch should be used with separate VLANs. All Ethernet wiring is to be done using shielded CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6, or CAT7 cable.

(NO): normally open (connected to C when relay is energized) Control Inputs The Control Inputs are labeled as follows: 1. (10V): 10V reference voltage (when used as a switch input, a switch must be connected between the input and logic common terminal) Audio Inputs Two sets of plug-in barrier strip and RCA connectors provide analog audio signal input.
