Rev. C April 1999
File Priority
The priority of a file playing on one channel will not affect the priority of files playing on any other channel. Priority levels are 1 thru
5, 1 being highest, 5 being lowest.
Priority 1 and Priority 2 files WILL interrupt any file with a lower priority that is playing through the same output channel. Priority 3
and Priority 4 files will NOT interrupt lower priority files but will begin playing immediately upon completion of any lower priority file.
Any file that is interrupted by a higher priority file before it has completed playing will remain on the channel queue until it is allowed
to replay completely.
If two files or more of equal priority are activated, the files will play sequentially as long as the files are activated.
Priority 4 and Priority 5 files may be acknowledged. Files are acknowledged by the reception of an acknowledge command on the
serial port or activation of the acknowledge input. Acknowledged files will play one more time and then be removed from the queue.
Dry contact activated files must have their input released and then reactivated to play again. Serial command activated files must
have another serial start command transmitted to play again.
Files of all priority levels may be reset. Files are reset by the reception of a reset command on the serial port or activation of the
reset input. Reset files will stop immediately and are removed from the queue. Dry contact activated files must have their input
released and then reactivated to play again. Serial command activated files must have another serial start command transmitted to
play again.
Note: In the United States the latest NFPA guidelines and standards provide that life safety/fire notification alarm tone(s) and
voice message(s) are the only alarm tone(s) and message(s) that shall be assigned priority 1 for all SAFEPATH panel
output channel(s) assigned to either a dedicated life safety/fire alarm protective signaling system or the life safety/fire
alarm system portion of an integrated multi-function system.
Acknowledge Playing Files
All priority 4 and priority 5 files may be acknowledged. Files activated by a dry contact input may be acknowledged by activating the
acknowledge dry contact input. Files activated by a serial command may be acknowledged by the serial acknowledge command.
Files which have been acknowledged will play one more time and then be removed from the queue. String files which have been
programmed with a file repeat will play the number of times selected by the file repeat option and then be removed from the queue.
Dry contact activated files which have been acknowledged must have their input released and then reactivated to play again. Serial
command activated files which have been acknowledged must have another serial start command transmitted to play again.
Any dry contact input may be selected to be the acknowledge input. An input selected to be the acknowledge input may not be used
to activate files to play. The acknowledge input feature may be disabled by selecting input 0 to be the acknowledge input. In
SAFEPATH panels configured with a DX-200 the acknowledge input selection is located in the SETUP procedure from the main
menu on the DX-200. In SAFEPATH panels configured with a DX-100, the acknowledge input is selected by first selecting the
required input on a Series DV-200 and then transferring the Series DV-200’s configuration.
Reset Playing Files
Files of all priority levels may be reset. Files activated by a dry contact input may be reset by activating the reset dry contact input.
Files activated by a serial command may be reset by the serial reset command. Files which have been reset will stop playing
immediately and be removed from the queue. Dry contact activated files which have been reset must have their input released and
then reactivated to play again. Serial command activated files which have been reset must have another serial start command
transmitted to play again.
Any dry contact input may be selected to be the reset input An input selected to be the reset input may not be used to activate files
to play or to be the acknowledge input. The reset input feature may be disabled by selecting input 0 to be the reset input. In
SAFEPATH panels configured with a DX-200, the reset input selection is located in the SETUP procedure from the main menu on
the DX-200. In the SAFEPATH panels configured with a DX-100, the reset input is selected by first selecting the required input on a
Series DV-200 and then transferring the Series DV-200’s configuration.
Note:
The reset switch must be located within a locked enclosure.
Playing Files
The digital voice module stores message file activations in a separate queue (see "queue" definition in glossary) for each output
channel. Files can be added to the queue by a contact activation or a serial port start command. Files in each queue are played in
the order of file priority. Equal priority files are played in the order of activation.
When a contact activation is detected, the programmed message file is placed on the programmed queue. The contact input is then
not checked for activation again until the message file completes playing. Therefore, a momentary contact closure will only play a
message file once and a maintained contact closure will continuously repeat a message file as long as its input is held activated
(unless it is interrupted by a higher priority file, played alternately with other equal priority files, acknowledged, or reset). (See
"acknowledge" definition in Glossary.)
When a valid serial port start command is received, the programmed message file is placed on the programmed queue. Each time
the file completes playing, the digital voice module checks to see if a valid serial port stop command has been received. If one has
been received, the message file is removed from the queue. As long as the file is on the queue, it will repeat continuously (unless it
is interrupted by a higher priority file, played alternately with other equal priority files, acknowledged, or reset).
