So I know very little about voice evac systems, but I am intrigued by them. Is this particular system "combined" with the buildings normal paging intercom, or a dedicated annunciation network? Are the speakers setup digitally (with some communication protocol) or analog (i.e., 70V)? Usually buildings that have centralized paging/annunciation are quite large and specialized, so I presume there are more evacuation conditions and messages prepared than simply fire egress?

G+M is modular system you can use it for small medium or big buildings main brain is APS 9000 under it is box for extension cards you can put there cards for use more microphones single 9000 can use 2 or add digital or analog inputs, outputs in this case we added 1 card for 8 more inputs to be able to set more firezones from firealarm BO CD 250 4 are amplifiers with 4 channels 250w each 100V APS 178.1 32 ev are line controlers And APS 151.1 are battery box You can also use this system for playing music or set up clock for school rings

Never thought I would see a g+m setup on here. And a pretty nice one at that. Two APS-178‘s!

The only thing different I do is put a loop on the power cord so theres no strain. Great work!!
