2 About the product
The Sonix Hmi-5 Ex is an intrinsically-safe Human
Interface access panel for connection into the Sonix
PA/GA system from harsh and hazardous locations. It
can provide operators with the ability to interface with
the system to activate and control alarms and make
announcements, both routine and emergency speech.
The units are remotely configurable using the Sonix
administration software with several features that can
be tailored to the needs of system installation.
The unit is an A & B duplicated unit with independent
and isolated circuits for A side and B side. Each side is
typically phantom powered from the PA/GA system rack
and has been designed to be a low power solution. The
unit is in an IP66 rated enclosure.

2.2 Unit ordering and configuring

limited number of buttons and indicators available on the
Hmi-5, each unit is customised for the required system
functionality. The specific functionality needs to be
discussed and specified before and during ordering with
your local Eaton representative.
