Mass Notification System (MNS)
Description
1.1.5 Cabinet Mounting
The AA-100/AA-100E and AA-120/AA-120E mounts directly in the FCI-DR-C4B or FCI-DR-
D4B cabinet backbox. Primary (AC) and secondary (24V battery) power source connections must
be made to each amplifier. The AA-100 and AA-120 amplifiers require 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz pri-
mary power and the AA-100E and AA-120E require 220/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz primary power. Some
external listed means of charging the batteries (such as a CHG-120) must be provided.
1.2 Mass Notification System (MNS)
Use the AA-100/AA-120 amplifiers in the E3 Series Classic System of the Mass Notification Sys-
tem. The Gamewell-FCI, Mass Notification System (MNS) is a combination in-building fire and
mass notification system. It comprises the E3 Series Broadband Emergency Voice Evacuation, E3
Series Classic Systems and the E3 Series Broadband networked fire alarm system. This design
allows a wide range of configurations to form an integrated, distributed fire alarm system in combi-
nation with audio evacuation for both Fire and Mass Notification functions as desired. The design
also allows for its use as a dedicated standalone Mass Notification System without fire alarm ser-
vice. The network communication conveys all Fire alarm and Mass Notification control functions,
audio evacuation, voice paging, and fire fighter communications over a single pair of wires or
fiber-optic cable. The modular design offers several configurations to accommodate the following
audio components:
•
Autonomous Control Unit (ACU) (Main Command Center)
•
Local Operating Console (LOC), (Remote Command Center)
•
E3 Series Broadband Voice Evacuation System
•
E3 Series Classic Voice Evacuation System
Table 1.2.1 lists the E3 Series sub-assemblies that can be used in the Gamewell-FCI, MNS (Mass
Notification System).
