DFSM Components (cont.)

• Two Assemblies (jumper configurable)
• Master 4100-1265 (one per)
• Switch Plate mounts in slot in front of DFSM

  plugs into DFSM, new harness 733-953 goes from
  DFSM to Audio Controller

  (ordered separately, required at each master and
  slave)

6
DFSM How it works

• Master
• Keyswitch (B-key) enables DFSM Mode
• Master Microphone is then routed to the DFSM
  card (will cause trouble on Audio Controller)
• DFSM card places amplified microphone signal on
  PDI channel 2 and out DFSM Riser
• VOX input on new amplifiers (discussed later),
  which is at highest priority, senses audio on PDI
  channel 2 (AMPAUX) and routes signal
• Troubles for slave wiring (NAC), power stage,
  switch wiring are reported through the supervised
  IAM (must be programmed in job)
• Slave
• DFSM signal from DFSM Master is detected
• Signal is routed to PDI Channel 2
• VOX input on new amplifiers, which is set at
  highest priority, senses audio on PDI channel 2
  and routes signal
• Trouble for power stage is reported through the
  supervised IAM (must be programmed in job)

Audio Enhancement Network Configuration Examples

• Audio Enhancements Project has enabled some new
  network configurations
• Synchronized Digital Audio with Local Audio
  Support
• Provides multi channel audio synchronization via
  the VCC
• Provide local mode multi channel audio messaging
  upon DAR or network failure
• Synchronized Digital Audio with Full Mode Local
  Audio Support
• Provides full multi channel audio synchronization
  via the VCC
• Provide full local mode multi channel audio
  messaging from remote node on DAR or network
  failure

18
Synchronized Digital Audio with Local Audio
Support

• No custom control required for general alarm
  operation, although lists and points will need to
  be manipulated
• DARIC and DAC control direction of DAR flow for
  each node (Enhanced DAR routing)
• VCC- From DAC through DARIC to remote boxes
• Remote nodes - from VCC DAC through DARIC, local
  DAC uses remote DAR received from DARIC to drive
  its miniplex riser
• No riser amplifier required
• Global paging supported from VCC
• Local Paging supported at remote nodes
• Remote nodes support local audio backup

19
Synchronized Digital Audio with Local Audio
Support

• Normal Mode
• VCC generates network DAR stream and controls all
  audio points in the system
• Remote Nodes receive network DAR and use this to
  drive their own miniplexes (through their local
  DAC)
• Exception If local paging is activated, the
  remote node using the paging feature will switch
  to its own local DACs DAR (custom control
  required for this operation)
• Degraded Mode (Assume DAR stream from VCC is bad)
• IF the node still has network communication
• A remote node which lost the audio stream switch
  to their local DACs DAR (must contain the same
  message set) and drive its local PDI / Riser and
  turn the DARIC PDI drive off
• IF the node has lost network communication with
  the VCC
• Remote Node controls its own points and switches
  to its local DACs DAR stream and continues
  operation based on its local inputs.

20
Synchronized Digital Audio with Local Audio
Support (cont.)
21
Synchronized Digital Audio with Full Mode Local
Audio

• Custom control required at each node that can
  generate network DAR, lists and points will need
  to be manipulated at all nodes
• DARIC and DAC control direction of DAR flow
  (Enhanced DAR Routing)
• From DAC through DARIC to remote boxes (when node
  is generating)
• From remote boxes through DARIC through DAC (when
  node is receiving)
• No riser amplifier required
• Global paging supported from any node that is
  capable of generating network DAR
• Local Paging supported from remote Nodes with a
  DAC
• Remote nodes can either be of local backup type
  or Full Mode Local Network Backup type

22
Synchronized Digital Audio with Full Mode Local
Audio Support Operation Example

• Normal Mode
• VCC generates network DAR stream and controls all
  audio points in the system
• Remote nodes receive network DAR and use this to
  drive their own miniplexes (through the DAC)
• Exception If local paging is activated, the
  remote node using the paging feature will switch
  to its own local DACs DAR (custom control
  required for this operation)
• Exception If global paging is activated at a
  remote node, the remote node will generate the
  network DAR for all other remote nodes and the
  VCC to use (the VCC will switch direction of DAR
  flow to receive on its DARIC and DAC).
• Degraded Mode (Assume DAR stream from VCC is bad)
• IF the node still has network communication
• The next node in line that has the capability to
  generate network DAR will switch DAC and DARIC
  direction to send (must contain the same message
  set as VCC) and continue to play audio, this DAR
  will also be driven out onto the network riser to
  be received by remote nodes.
• IF the node has lost network communication with
  the VCC
• Remote Node controls its own points (and
  possibly system points heavy custom control
  here), switches to its local DACs DAR stream,
  routes this stream out of its DARIC and
  continues operation based on its local inputs.
  Other nodes may or may not use this DAR stream,
  depending on custom control
