The 4100ES supports voice evacuation and mass notification through scalable audio architectures ranging from single-channel to eight-channel systems (Page 7) [1].
Emergency Communications Systems (ECS) or Mass Notification Systems (MNS) messaging can be configured to take precedence over fire alarm activations [1].
Key support features include:
Amplification: Flex 50 amplifiers allow two simultaneous active channels, while 100W amplifiers support high-power output for a single signaling area [1].
Custom Messaging: The system supports custom WAV files (44,100 Hz, 16-bit mono) and an archived message library for specific site requirements [1].
Manual Control: Operators can trigger building-wide alerts using the All Speakers Evac button or target specific zones via Selective Evac (Page 62, 67) [1].
System Integration: For expanded coverage, multiple 4003EC control panels can be interconnected for system-wide ECS/MNS control [1].
Live Paging: The panel includes an internal microphone for live paging, with a Ready to Talk LED indicating when the system is clear to broadcast (Page 63) [1].
