Description:
The NOVA Public Address and General Alarm (PA/GA) system utilises microprocessor technology to provide superior performance and reliability for all types of facilities.
From remote system monitoring, to complete system health checks, to individually addressable speakers, NOVAs innovative features meet customers’ requirements in a wide range of applications.
The PA/GA system can be divided into one or more
zones which can be accessed independently for
announcement or alarm broadcasts.
Broadcasts
are transmitted through loudspeakers installed
throughout the facility. The system permits calls
between it and any existing public address
system. The system is modular in design and is
easily expanded to include remote amplifiers
and/or combinations of amplifiers. The area of
coverage will be such that calls will be clearly
audible in the paged operating areas and their
surrounding areas.
Loudspeakers and/or beacon circuits support
paging zones where one or more loudspeaker
circuits can be grouped into a zone. Each loudspeaker
or beacon circuit is connected to the
central equipment for amplification and control /
monitor functions. The system can interface to
other systems such as telephone, radio, or other
paging/intercom systems. Up to 64 individually
prioritized audio interfaces are supported. Additional
interfaces support external alarm/monitor
systems; NOVA can activate external system
alarms and, accept external system alarm/audio
inputs initiating both alarms and beacon/strobes.
Touch screen desktop or rack access panels allow
voice announcements and alarm control operations.
Announcements can be configured to
broadcast in designated zones, or a zone selection
feature enables users to direct announcements to
selected zones. Access panels are connected to
the central equipment and assigned an access
priority for announcements, thereby ensuring that
the panel with the highest authority level takes
precedence over lower level panels. Alarms are
likewise given a broadcast priority that gives the most critical alarm precedence.
