The TRT-300 A acts as a remote contact interface that can activate or deactivate
a third party instrument or equipment that needs to be triggered during a live-
broadcast of an evacuation event. The TRT-300 A sits in the LOOP and receives
the broadcast audio message. As soon as the broadcast audio message contains
a 20kHz pilote-tone, the on-board relays of the TRT-300 A will change state into
‘override’ mode. The state change is latched as long as the pilote-tone is received.
Depending on the function of the third party instrument or equipment, the TRT-
300 A offers two potential free NC and a NO switching contacts.
The VARES-LOOP – Ringbus Isolator (TRT-200 A) is the successor in our range of
loudspeaker loop-isolator devices that are using our patent technology to deliver a
higher level of security of evacuation loudspeaker lines that are installed according
to the return-loop principle.

The TRT-300 A is equipped with clearly market connectors. It has a LOOP-FEED and LOOP-
RETURN connection that are not sensitive for feeding direction. LOOP has a DC-carrier for
charging and communication purpose.
Please observe correct connectivity:
RED = PHASE / PLUS
BLUE = ZERO / MINUS
GREEN = GROUND (If applicable)
NOTE: The T-Branch switching load is maximised to 2000W. The OVERRIDE signal must
be sent together with any emergency message.
The override pilots-tone must be: 20kHz / 7,5Vrms

The TRT-300 A has two potential-free switching contacts that connect to third party in-
strument or equipment. Using these triggering relay contacts, a local source automatically
overrides when emergency paging from the VACIE is applied or a local instrument can be
energised.
The TRT-300 A is equipped with a power capacitor that is charged by the LDB and has en-
ough capacity to operate at least two emergency cycles without the need for re-charging.
The LED indicator(s) on the TRT-300 A are flashing with intervals to indicate quiescent or
fault condition. The TRT-300 A has a RESET button for local reset. Please refer to the User
and Installation manual for detailed information.
The maximum switching load of the contact relays is: 230VAC/8A.
The TRT-400 A is equipped with WAGO
push-terminals that accept up to 2,5 mm2
core installation cable. A special tool is
provided to quickly remove all three wires
in one run. (Release-tool is included)
