Cooper Notification’s Universal WAVES Interface (UWI) allows the WAVES Mass Notification System to communicate and distribute messages through its network of transceivers to virtually any paging system, emergency communications system, voice capable Fire Alarm Control Panels (FACPs), voice evacuation systems or other vendor speaker arrays used for Mass Notification.
The UWI is a peripheral device that provides WAVES transceiver units
(TRX) with one or more contact closure (CC) outputs. The contact
closure outputs are used to interface with other systems and are
independently controllable by WAVES.
The UWI is typically co-located with a WAVES TRX and UPS-901 (optional). The UWI receives power, line-level audio, and responds to serial commands from the host TRX through its RS-232 port. The UWI directly passes input audio through to the output with no gain or attenuation. The UWI simplifies system wiring by bundling line-level audio from the
TRX and the Push-To-Talk (PTT) contact closure in a single interface cable. The UWI-1301VXR is required for interfacing with FACPs and other regulated systems.
- Provides an interface to paging systems, FACPs, voice evacuation systems or other vendor speaker arrays used for Mass Notification
- Allows activation and deactivation of other life safety systems with one system interface
- Supplies the TRX with up to 5 contact closure outputs
- Required for interfacing with FACPs and other regulated systems.
