VOCIA 8-CHANNEL LIVE AUDIO INPUT DEVICE (VI-8)
The Vocia 8-Channel Live Audio Input Device (VI-8) is designed to facilitate the use of live audio Paging to Emergency and Non-emergency
Zones in a Vocia system. The VI-8 allows direct connection of up to eight analog mic/line audio inputs or digital CobraNet
from external systems. Eight General Purpose Inputs and Outputs are provided and can be assigned to Control Events in the Vocia system.
The interface allows live, real-time audio Paging to any assignable Page Code or Zone within the Vocia World. The Status In and Status Out
allows for monitoring of multiple VI-8 devices and the Vocia emergency system.
The VI-8 supports Emergency Paging functions when a Vocia Life Safety Interface (LSI-16 or LSI-16e) is present in the system.
