8.5NRS 90224 pilot tone & ground fault surveillance

The extension NRS 90224 is meant for insertion. It includes a 19 kHz tone generator and a selective 19 kHz receiver with evaluation stage for pilot tone surveillance. Also incorporated is a monitoring circuit with fault storage and display driver, to guard the cable network connected to the output.

8.5.1 Pilot tone surveillance:

Integration of the extension NRS 90224 provides continuous self-monitoring of the amplifier. This gets accomplished in the way that an extremely low-level 19 kHz pilot tone signal is introduced to the signal path following the input level control LEVEL. After passing the amplifier stages, the pilot tone signal is filtered out at the output and the result is evaluated. If the measured signal declines the pilot tone's predetermined threshold at the output or is not present at all, the READY indicator (7) dims and the READY fault message relay drops. When using the INPUT MODULE NRS 90225, the fault message is output as collective fault message with the floating contact of the READY fault message relay via the REMOTE CONTROL connector (16). When using the REMOTE MODULE NRS 90222, error occurrence is monitored and output by the PROMATRIX manager DPM 4000 (for further details, please refer to the PROMATRIX handbook).

8.5.2 Ground fault surveillance:

When installing and operating 100V-loudspeaker networks, compliance to the VDE regulation DIN VDE 0800 is mandatory. Especially, if 100V-loudspeaker networks are included in alarm system applications, all security standards have to be in accordance to the security class 3 standard.
