Networking details

Vocia supports two modes of

network

communication

depending on the network topology. One

requires a direct connection to a CobraNet network while
the other requires an IP-based connection to the MS-1e
Message Processor to access the system. The factory
default IP address for the MS-1e is 192.168.1.101, which
is already set up in the example configuration accordingly.
Should any problems occur to connect to the system, use
the MS-1e device maintenance tool in Vocia Software.

Setup Requirements:

The following devices will require 802.3af (Class 3) power from a PoE capable switch or a suitable PoE injector:

• 5 - Vocia DS-4

• 2 - Vocia DS-10

• 2 - Vocia EWS-10

• 4 - WR-1

• 1 - VI-6

• 3 - ANC-1

• 1 - LSI-16e (2 Ports)

System setup

All Vocia devices are set, by default, to unity gain. This allows the system to start working, once the file is loaded, with
minimal adjustments.

• Select the output voltage on the amplifiers to 70V or 100V as needed

• Adjust the amplifier

output level

as needed for each zone

• While at the amplifier's properties, go to "ELD Assignment" tab and assign PLD's if being used

• Adjust ambient sense microphones input levels and values

• Check and confirm adequate DS-10, DS-4 and EWS-4 microphone input level from the

Audio & Live Control

tab

found under the respective units properties

• Verify there are no Alarms or Faults active in the LSI-16e. If present, verify

wiring

and terminations

• Upload and assign emergency messages that have been customized to the ships evacuation requirements

• Adjust scheduled announcements of daily activities

• Test the Emergency Evacuation Systems with each of the triggers for proper functionality and validation
