WS-4 / WS-10 and EWS-4 / EWS-10 Back
Device ID
The rotary ID switches give the unit a unique Device ID. The switches are in hexadecimal format. All units
of the same device type must have a unique Device ID to function properly within a Vocia Paging World.
The Factory Default Device ID is 01. A Device ID of 00 is invalid and cannot be used.
To assign a Device ID of hex 07, leave the MSB switch on 0 and turn the LSB switch to 7. Device ID
switches should be set using a 0.1 inch (2.5mm) to 0.12 inch (3.0mm) flat blade screwdriver. More
information on setting IDs and the hexadecimal numbering scheme can be found in the Vocia Help File.
NOTE
Changes made to the Device ID while connected to the network require a power cycle in order to take effect.
Aux Power Connector
This two-way connector may be used to power the EWS-4 or EWS-10 from an auxiliary 24V DC power
supply. When this connector is used, Links CN11 and CN12 must be removed (default configuration for
EWS-4 and EWS-10). Conversely, when PoE is used, links CN11 and CN12 must be installed (default
configuration for WS-4 and WS-10).
CobraNet
The Paging station is a CobraNet devices. All CobraNet routing and bundle assignments are processed
by the Vocia devices locally. Vocia devices are not interoperable with non-Vocia devices.
Connections
Each device has two RJ45 connectors. These are labeled Audio Network and Auxiliary.
