4.3 System Overview
The Ampac EV3000 Occupant Warning and Intercommunication System is a microprocessor based
OWIS system that complies with Australian Standards AS2220.1 and produces Alert and Evacuation
signals compliant with AS1670.4
The OWIS comprises of two sub-systems,
1. Occupant Warning System (OWS)
The prime function of an OWS is to transmit via speakers in evacuation zones, alert signals,
evacuation signals and public address clearly and reliably.
The OWS can automatically initiate evacuation procedures or be manually operated as well
being used for non-emergency functions, e.g. background music and general PA facilities.
2. Occupant Intercommunication System (OIS).
The OIS is a totally independent intercommunication system provided to communicate on a
one to one basis from the Master Emergency Control Panel (MECP) to the individual Warden
Intercommunication Points (WIP’s) within the evacuation zones.
The OWS and OIS are collectively referred to as the Occupant Warning and Intercommunication
System (OWIS).

EV3000 INSTALLATION & COMMISSIONING
5System Description
5.1 Occupant Warning System
The OWS subdivides the building into evacuation zones. Each evacuation zone has one or more
amplifiers and a number of associated speakers. In sections of a building where the background
noise is high, visual warning devices may be used in addition to speakers. Each evacuation zone
amplifier may be switched by the system to one of four audio channels. These channels are PA,
Alert signal, Evacuation signal and Background music (BGM). The BGM channel to each amplifier
can be configured on site by jumper links to one of the following sources:
Background music 1
Background music 2
Silence
During non-emergency situations the evacuation zones can have the PA channel or BGM channel
switched to allow the OWS to be used for PA facilities or background music. The background music
is disabled;
in an emergency situation,
if the OWS is manually operated; or
if the mains power fails.
The signal generator module (SGM) is responsible for generating the alert and evacuation signals as
well as the alert and evacuation verbal messages.
The OWS has two possible types of alarm signal inputs to indicate that an emergency condition is
occurring in the building. These are:
Emergency Alarm Initiating Devices (EAID’s) i.e. manual call points
Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP)
These inputs are grouped according to the building evacuation zones. Any number of EAID's and
FACP’s inputs may be assigned to any one building evacuation zones or group of zones.
When an input, i.e. EAID or FACP initiates an alarm signal the OWS, if in automatic mode, will
initiate a preset evacuation sequence. The evacuation sequence will sound the Alert / Evac signals
to the evacuation zones within the building and activating the visual warning devices (if installed)
according to the pre-programmed evacuation sequence. The manual override will cease the pre-
programmed evacuation sequence, and output Alert / Evac signals to evacuation zones as dictated
via the OWS panel control switches. If the keyswitch is placed back into the Auto position after an
evacuation sequence is stopped by use of the keyswitch and no keys were pressed in Manual then
the evacuation sequence will be discontinued.
The OWS provides full system status and fault indication facilities.
If the OWS has more than one ECP, one ECP is referred to as the Master Emergency Control Panel
(MECP) and the remaining ECP’s are referred to as Secondary Emergency Control Panels
(SECP’s).
5.2 Occupant Intercommunication System
The OIS provides an independent communication system between the controlling ECP and a
Warden Intercommunication Point (WIP). OIS features are:
The controlling ECP can call individual WIP’s or enter an All Call mode, where all the WIP’s are
called simultaneously.
The controlling ECP and up to 5WIP’s can communicate in a conference mode.
Calls to an individual WIP's have full duplex communication.
All Call, communication is half duplex from the controlling ECP.
Any WIP can call the controlling ECP the call is answered at the controlling ECP at the
operators’ discretion.

7OWIS Components
The OWIS is broken into three components:
1. Master Emergency Control Panel
2. Cabling
3. Devices
The Master Emergency Control Panels can be further broken down into two sections,
1. Emergency Control Panel
2. Main Equipment
7.1 The Emergency Control Panel
The ECP consists of:
A Control Panel which contains the Auto/Manual/Isolate facility, the All Call facility, the common
System Status and Zone Status controls and indicators.
An OWS control panel which controls the manual selection of audible signals to the Evacuation
zones and an OIS control panel which controls the communication with WIP extensions.
7.2 Ancillary Components ECP
7.2.1 MICROPHONE
The microphone;
is used for the PA facility;
has a press to talk (PTT) switch; and
is normally disabled unless the ECP is in control, i.e. the key-switch is in the MANUAL position
and its REMOTE ECP IN CONTROL indicator is NOT illuminated.
7.2.2 Master OIS Handset And All Call Switch
Handset and associated cradle (RED).
7.2.3 Emergency Alarm Initiating Device (EAID)
The EAID on the ECP is one of the Alarm inputs for the evacuation zone that corresponds to the
section of the building where the ECP is located.
