Biamp Vocia VI-8
Biamp Vocia VI-8
The Vocia Input 8 (VI-8) is designed to facilitate the use of live audio paging to emergency and non-emergency zones in a Vocia system. The VI-8 will allow direct connection of up to eight analog mic/line audio inputs or digital CobraNet® audio connections from external systems. Each audio input supports VOX mute/unmute operation with user definable input signal thresholds. Eight general purpose inputs and outputs can be assigned to Vocia control events. The software interface allows live, real time audio paging to any assignable page code or zone within the Vocia. Status in and out allows monitoring of multiple VI-8 devices and the Vocia emergency system, which can be connected to an external monitoring system.
