8. OPTIONS
8.1 Radio Control
The UVIC can be activated by a radio
signal when the optional radio
transceiver is incorporated into the
Control Unit. Activation by radio control
has the advantage that control lines are
not required between the control site
and the UVIC. Federal Signal offers the
controller with a full line of transceivers
built in which cover the
VHF and UHF bands.
8.2 Digital Voice Recording
Four minutes of digital voice storage is
provided as a standard feature with the
UVIC. When the Digital Voice Recording
option (model DVR) is purchased, the
UVIC will be factory programmed with
high quality voice or music recordings
as specified by the customer.
Up to 16 individual messages may be
programmed into the UVIC. Digital
Voice Messages may be activated
remotely or via the control panel
switches. To program activation codes
with Digital Voice Messages under
them, follow the instructions in the
Commander Digital System manual. It is
possible to assign codes to the functions
DIG VOICE 1 through DIG VOICE 16.
As in all sounding functions, the unit
must first be sent the ARM command
followed by one of the six DIG VOICE
commands to activate the stored
message. The only adjustment available
on the Digital Voice PCB is a
potentiometer, which adjusts the audio
output level.
8.3 UVIC25ST Option
When purchased, the UVIC25ST allows
the end-user the capability to reduce
audio output from the 70VRMS standard
to the 25VRMS standard. This option is
beneficial when deploying the
UltraVoice electronic controller in an
indoor warning application. See Section
9 for wiring details.
8.4 UVIC25SD Option
As with the UVIC25ST, the UVIC25SD
allows the end-user the capability to
reduce audio output from the 70VRMS
standard to the 25VRMS standard. The
UVIC25SD consists of a PC board with
two 400W step-down transformers
housed inside a fiberglass enclosure.
This option is needed instead of the
UVIC25ST when purchasing two UV400
amplifiers.
8.5 UVARM Option
The Audio and Relay Output module
provides three separate audio outputs
for the UltraVoice controller to interface
with other devices and systems. The
outputs consist of a balanced 33 ohm, a
balanced 600 ohm, a selectable 600
