GENERAL INFORMATION
Midian’s VAE-10 is a voice alarm encoder that can have a voice message stored in it and when the emergency
input is activated the VAE-10 will transmit an emergency ANI and the prerecorded voice message. The
emergency ANI can be sent in Motorola’s MDC-1200, Kenwood’s FleetSync, Harris’ G-Star, DTMF or 5-Tone.
The following are some common applications:
Equipment Failure Notification:
The emergency input of the VAE-10 can be connected to an output of
equipment such as tower lights or a backup generator, so that when the tower light goes out it can send a voice
message stating that the “Mount Lemmon tower 3 light is off”. This warning can be sent periodically multiple times
or continuously until reset. For backup power, when the backup is activated a message such as “Backup power is
on”.
Emergency Alert:
Public safety dispatchers do not want field radio users to talk on the channel without need
when an emergency is occurring. The dispatcher can have the VAE-10 send a voice message such as
“Emergency alert keep channel clear”. This message can be sent periodically until reset.
