EAP01 Emergency Microphone

EAP01 (Emergency Access Point)

• EAP01 (Emergency Announcement Point)
  • A dedicated emergency paging microphone designed for all-call announcements across an entire facility. Housed in an IP65-rated vandal-resistant, lockable enclosure, the EAP01 provides clear status indication through Busy, Speak Now, System Fault, and Status LEDs. It supports failsafe all-call operation via designated router inputs, ensuring emergency announcements can still be made in the event of router processor failure.

Key Features

• The EAP01 is an an IP65 vandal resistant emergency announcement microphone used to make all-call broadcasts. It is designed to work with the whole range of ASL Voice Alarm and Public Address systems.
• The unit features indicators for ‘Busy’, ‘Speak Now’, and ‘System Fault’, together with a ‘Power Status’ indicator.
• The EAP01 will operate in an All-Call mode even in the event of processor failure within the router, as required by BS5389 Pt.8. The unit should be connected to Router’s inputs 1 or 2, which operate in the All-Call failsafe override mode in the event of processor failure. Please note that BS 5839 part 8 doesn't require hardware bypass mode, although this does obviously improve the system resilience.
• The EAP01 Emergency Announcement Point is housed in an IP65 vandal resistant, lockable wall-mounting box.
• Hardwired connections to the Emergency Announcement Point interface all LEDs and switches to the router, while microphone audio is provided as a balanced 0 dBu (nominal) analogue signal.
• The EAP01 features a built-in signal limiter to accommodate varying operator technique. The microphone’s processor is responsible for generating an outgoing 20 Hz surveillance tone which is used to monitor the audio connection to the Router, while microphone capsule monitoring is performed by injection and monitoring of a signal such that either open or short circuit of the capsule or associated wiring will indicate a fault.
• Hardwired connections are provided for the PTT switch, and Speak Now and System Fault LEDs. The cabling to the PTT switch and Speak Now LEDs is continuously monitored by the Router for open and short circuits. If you need pinout information for the EAP01, please refer to the website.
• Field connections are provided on the inside rear panel of the back box by DIN rail mounted terminals.
