DATA SHEET: TOA VX-3016F AMQ VOICE ALARM SYSTEM FRAME
The VX-3016F AMQ is an ultra-high-density, network-enabled public address and voice evacuation system manager within the EN54-16 certified TOA VX-3000 lineup. Expressly designed for expansive structural layouts requiring broad structural zoning, this single frame supports up to 16 independent speaker lines, offering exceptional multi-zone matrix control over a decentralized IP network.
KEY FEATURES & SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Ultra-Dense 16-Zone Matrix: Drives up to 16 distinct speaker zones from a single 3U frame, maximizing rack space and optimizing overall project expenditure.
Flexible Dual-Bus Amplification: Hosts up to 2 digital amplifier modules. Configurable as a single bus driving all 16 zones, or split into a 2-channel bus mapping 8 zones per amplifier. Alternatively, the secondary slot can be mapped as a global standby amplifier.
Advanced Acoustic Core: Complete Input/Output DSP engineering featuring parametric equalizers, customizable compressors, acoustic feedback suppression (FBS), and sound-alignment delays up to 2.7 seconds per channel.
Intelligent Line Monitoring: Integrated monitoring architecture supporting real-time speaker line diagnostics via pilot-tone impedance testing or specialized End-of-Line (EOL) modules to pinpoint shorts, opens, and ground faults.
