EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Fike’s Emergency Communication System (ECS) is a combination system that consists of a variety of
components that have been designed to be seamlessly integrated into the CyberCat system in order to
provide the following ECS functions: In-Building Fire Emergency Voice/Alarm Communications (EVACS); In-
Building Mass Notification (MNS); Two-Way Emergency Communication; and Wide-Area Mass Notification
system interface. The primary ECS system components include the FCC Digital Paging Assembly, audio
amplifiers, and Local Operating Consoles (LOC) described below.
FIRE COMMAND CENTER (FCC) DIGITAL PAGING ASSEMBLY
The FCC Digital Paging Assembly (P/N 10-2751) is the primary audio component of the fire command center.
It provides the primary connection point for the systems audio network riser, paging microphone, and fire-
fighters telephone. The assembly includes the FCC digital paging card (P/N 10-2727), FCC paging control
card (P/N 10-2741), and FCC microphone housing (P/N 10-2757). A digital audio network riser (Class A),
originating from the Digital Paging Assembly, connects all system amplifiers and local operating consoles
together. This allows live audio messages (Pages) to be broadcast over the audio network to the system
amplifiers. The page can originate from the fire command center paging microphone or from any local
operating console microphone.
AMPLIFIERS
The Amplifier Assembly (P/N 10-2773) is designed to feed a single audio zone and provides an integral 24
Vdc visual notification appliance circuit. The amplifier card is capable of providing up to 50 watts of audio
output power to connected voice evacuation speakers. The amplifier card provides four Class B audio output
circuits that are compatible with 25 or 70 Vrms speakers. An optional Class A card (P/N 10-2746) can be
installed where redundant speaker circuit wiring is required. Each amplifier card can store up to 16 digitally
recorded voice messages, each of which may be up to 30 seconds long. User-defined custom messages can
be recorded and downloaded to non-volatile memory on the amplifier using the control panel’s programming
software (C-Linx). The amplifier card connects to the digital audio network riser allowing distribution of live
audio messages (Pages).
LOCAL OPERATING CONSOLES
The Local Operating Consoles (P/N 10-2800 and 10-2801) provides remote paging and voice control
capabilities from a location other than the fire command center (i.e., nurse stations, guard stations, etc.). The
assembly includes the LOC digital paging card (P/N 10-2816), LOC paging control card (P/N 10-2798), and
LOC microphone housing (P/N 10-2813). The digital paging card connects to the digital audio network riser
which allows live audio messages (Pages) to be initiated from the LOC microphone.
Refer to Section 3.1.9 for further details.
