History
From Background Music to Automatic Voice Alarms
For a long time PA systems have been used to
distribute background music and paging
announcements into public areas
• Nowadays these PA systems that have evolved into
Integrated Voice Evacuation systems, are used to
warn people who face various life threatening
situations
• In an emergency situation it has become essential
to have Automatic Voice Alarms in conjunction
with Alarms.

Voice Alarm Systems
 Clear instructions allow a controlled evacuation
without panic
 The requirements for a secure Voice Alarm System
are written in the European standard EN 60849
TOA follows these requirements with its systems of the
Venas - Range

Venas Systems
VM-2000-Series
 The integrated PA System Manager for small to
medium sized PA systems, 120 or 240 watts
VX-2000-Series
 The modular System for medium to large
PA systems
 Fully compatible with EN 60849
 Easy system configuration via PC

Automatic Fire Area Related
Alarm (Example)
Tower Building with
Several Fire Areas
• Fire in the 5th floor
• the fire detecting system (FDS)
controls the VX-2000 specifically
• The VX-2000 starts an Evacuation message
for the 5th and 6th floor
• It also starts a Warning message
for the other floors simultaneously
• The fire increases
• The fire detecting system controls further
control inputs of the VX-2000
VX-2000
• The VX-2000 starts an
Evacuation message for all
FDS
floors
15
bc
Manual Intervention into the
Automatic Alarm (Example)
The Fireman Operates the Fireman’s
Microphone
• Fire on the 5th floor. The automatic
evacuation message is broadcast
to the 5th and 6th floor, and a
warning message to the other floors
• The fireman decides to evacuate all
upper floors. He manually activates
the evacuation message for these
areas on the fireman’s microphone
• The fire is extinguished. The
VX-2000
fireman activates the all-clear
message on the fireman’s
FDS
microphone.

bc
(1)
Redundancy
 Automatic Switch-Over to Stand-by Amplifier
 Power Supply can be designed redundant
(at a power supply unit’s loss, another power supply unit takes
over the supply)
If the CPU fails, it is still possible to make an all-call
from the fireman’s microphone
Automatic Reset
 Surveillance and automatic Reset of the CPU via
Watchdog timer

Economy Mode
(2)
Economy Mode
 Stand-by Function of Power Amplifiers
 In economy mode, the power consumption of the
power amplifiers is reduced when not in use
 At battery operation the current consumption is
extremely reduced, and the battery’s capacity can be
designed lower than usual
 quick readiness of the power amplifiers
