Most fire alarm systems using
MX1 will require Alarm Devices
– also
called “occupant warning system”, “evacuation system”, or EWIS in
various standards.
On MX1 , occupant warning can be provided using one or a combination
of:

A T-Gen2 (T-Gen 60 or T-Gen 120), T-GEN 50 or BOWS tone
generator to drive loudspeakers with tones, digitised speech
messages, and, optionally, public address.

One, two or three Mini-Gens to drive loudspeakers with tones and
digitised speech messages.

Multiple sounders on a common cable pair that can be arranged in up
to three branches.

Visual warning devices (Strobes, LED beacons) driven by the ISO
8201 Strobe Driver Module.

A QE90 EWIS system.
These are described in the following sections.
Note that the 100V speaker outputs of Mini-Gen, T-Gen2, T-GEN 50,
BOWs, and QE90 are Telecommunication Low-Voltage (LV) cabling and
is subject to AS/ACIF S009:2006. The cabling must be double-insulated
and separated from ELV customer cabling.
These instructions describe a basic installation of a T-Gen2 tone
generator on the left hand side of an
MX1 15U gearplate (T-Gen 60 or
the T-Gen 120), or right hand side fold (T-Gen 60 only) and wiring it to
the usual ANC1 terminals.
Refer to LT0667 T-Gen2 Installation and Operating Instructions and
LT0442
MX1 Wiring Diagrams for installations involving:

Mounting in other positions on the 15U or BTO gearplates.

Mounting and use of the 3U T-Gen2 User Interface door.

Mounting and use of the 100V Splitter or 100V Switcher modules.

Use of slave T-Gen2 units.

Connection of paging consoles.

Configuring the T-Gen2 to use non-default operation.
The T-Gen 60 mounts onto the MX1 gear plate left hand side in the
‘responder footprint’ position, which has five holes for plastic standoffs
and one metal standoff.
The T-Gen 120 mounts onto the MX1 gear plate left hand side in the
‘responder footprint’ position, but is fixed in place using four M4 screws
and the MX Loop card mounting holes.
The T-Gen 60 mounts on the right hand fold of the gearplate using four
double-ended plastic standoffs and two metal male/female standoffs.
For a Grade 3 solution , a single T-Gen2 can take its power from the MX1
Loop Interface Supply Terminal (J33) through a 10A fuse, using the
Alarm Devices
T-Gen2
