EA Series Audio Tone Library

Listen to the 50 tones stored in the EA Series Amplifier. Enter EA Series audio tone library here.

EA Series Custom Audio Sequence Library

This library contains a collection of custom sequences.  Eg Lockdown, Ammonia Alarm & Toxic Gas Alarm + more. Each sequence is stored in a configuration file which can be downloaded. Enter the EA Series custom audio sequence library here.

Amp Active Monitor

This setting disables the short-circuit monitoring of the 100V line when the amplifier is active. When set to off, it allows the amplifier to drive modules that switch resistors across the 100V line, such as the Apartment Module (AM-3) or the Supervised Control Module (M500S), without the amplifier going into ‘Defect’.

Generic Fault
33 Repeater Ctrl Open Audio IP3 is configured as a repeater but its activation line is open circuit Generic Fault
34 Repeater Ctrl Short Audio IP3 is configured as a repeater but its activation line is short circuited. (As the activation level goes down to 0v, this fault can't occur) Not applicable
35 RS485 Data A panel has been configured but there has been no data for 10 seconds Generic Fault. The panel will generate a timeout system fault if comms are down. Common Fault (System Fault).
