Logic I/O The Logic I/O connector on the NM-1 facilitates redundant device failover only. It is not a general-purpose contact closure interface. See the Amplifier-to-Amplifier Failover section below. Page Active Relays An optional Page Active Relay card can be added to the VA-8600(c) to provide a contact closure audio activity is detected on a particular output channel.

VA-8600 Fault Detection Amplifier-to-Amplifier Failover Vocia supports one-to-one automatic amplifier failover in case of fault. Failover is triggered by one of the following conditions: Chassis fault Channel fault Loss of power Loss of CobraNet link Loss of Logic I/O Only faults (e.g., heat sink fault and channel failure fault) trigger the failover mechanism.

Channel-to-Channel Failover In addition to entire amplifier failover, Vocia supports channel-to-channel failover, which is triggered by one of the following conditions: • Heat Sink fault • Short Circuit fault • Channel Failure fault The wire failover link cable is not required when wiring channel-to-channel failover. The redundant channel can be wired in parallel to the existing speaker line (shown above) or connected to a redundant speaker line.
