LSI-16/LSI-16e FRONT PANEL

Setup and Use
The Vocia software provides an intuitive interface for configuration and programming of the LSI-16/LSI-16e. The information supplied by this
manual relates to physical connections and assignment. For more details on configuration of the LSI-16/LSI-16e, please consult the Vocia
software Help File.

The LSI-16/LSI-16e governs the emergency functions of a Vocia system, monitoring and reporting faults and alarm conditions through
indicators and the system software. Incorrect configuration, removal, or non-installation of some system elements may result in the
LSI-16/LSI-16e reporting a fault or alarm condition. This is normal operation. For correct, fault-free operation, inputs and outputs must be
connected to the LSI-16/LSI-16e as detailed below, the LSI-16/LSI-16e must detect that it is the only such device installed in the Paging
World, and the system must be correctly configured and correctly operating.

Front Panel
The LSI-16/LSI-16e features twenty-three LEDs on the front plate (from left to right):

(LED 1) Power
The first LED on the left will illuminate green if the unit is powered by main or PoE supplies.

(LED 2) General Alarm
This LED will illuminate red if the LSI-16/LSI-16e receives an alarm signal from an external emergency detection system (e.g. a fire alarm
system) via the Alarm inputs to the LSI-16/LSI-16e. This LED indicates the general alarm state:
1. Solid red - The LSI-16/LSI-16e has received an alarm signal from an external emergency detection system (e.g. fire alarm system).
2. Flashing red - The LSI-16/LSI-16e has received a general alarm silence from an external emergency detection system (e.g. fire
alarm system).

(LED 3) General Fault
This LED will illuminate yellow if there is a fault in the system that does not affect the delivery of a warning message.

(LED 4) Power Supply Fault
This LED will illuminate yellow if LSI-16/LSI-16e is operating on a PoE supply but the main 24V supply fails or an external power supply fault is
signaled to the LSI-16/LSI-16e.

(LED 5) Protection Fault
This LED will illuminate yellow if a system amplifier channel fails and this failure does not prevent an emergency zone voice announce-
ment. Note: failures that do affect emergency zone voice announcements will result in a system fault.

(LED 6) Path Fault
This LED will illuminate yellow if a fault in a transmission path is detected. The path integrity is tested from microphone capsule
to end of loudspeaker lines if optional Vocia ELD-1 devices are fitted at the end of the loudspeaker lines.

(LED 7) System Fault
This LED indicates the integrity of the system:
1. Flashing yellow - The unit has a fault that may prevent the reliable operation of life safety announcement functions.
2. Not illuminated - The unit is operational without any faults that may prevent reliable operation of life safety announcement functions.
