1 System Overview
The X-618 Public Address System provides a complete multiple sound source public audio
management solution. Centralized network management is achieved through the system software,
and all system states are monitored. The X-618 Public Address System is hereby referred to as the
“X-618” throughout the remainder of this manual.
The X-618 includes the following product components:
•X-DCS3000 Digital Integrated System Manager
The X-DCS3000 Digital Integrated System Manager is hereinafter referred to as the “DCS”.
When describing specific installation requirement, the X-DCS3000 is referenced.
The DCS is X-618 control equipment, is designed for expanding the number of loudspeaker
zones, and can support multiple sound source files for broadcasting. The system integrates
with functions such as the sound source file the storage system, the network audio
broadcasting system, the loudspeaker zone control system, and the system for monitoring and
diagnosing faults.
•X-DA1500/DA2250/DA4125 High Efficiency Power Amplifier
The X-DA1500/DA2250/DA4125 High Efficiency Power Amplifier is hereinafter referred to as
the “DA” or the “X-DA1500/DA2250/DA4125”.
In the X-618 system, the DA is used to amplify audio signal power and drive many
broadcasting loudspeakers.
•X-NPMS Configurable Network Paging Console
The X-NPMS Programmable Network Paging Console is used to page zones and control
broadcasts for the X-618 on an Ethernet network.
•X-NRI Network Resource Interface
The X-NRI Network Resource Interface is hereinafter referred to as the “NRI” or “X-NRI”.
The X-NRI is the external interface expansion control equipment in the X-618. It has multiple
audio interfaces and control ports enabling it to send audio and control signals through the
Ethernet network to the X-618 system.
