When repairing devices with microprocessors (EV-5000, EV-PAGE and EV-REL), the general
precautions and actions reagarding electrostatic discharge have to be taken.
This appliance may only be used in accordance with its intended purpose: Audio Matrix in a public
address or voice alarm system.
According to the EN 60849 standard the following documentation must be available respectively
records have to be kept:
1. User Manual
2. System Documents
3. Operation Log
4. Maintenance Record Keeping
Please refer to the mentioned standard for further details.
6. General Information
The EV-5000 is a Public Address and Voice-Alarm Matrix, which operates all necessary
supervisionfunctions in a slim 1 unit housing according to EN 60849. You can connect several
callstations and release emergency-announcements, stored evacuation-signals, chimes and
background muisc.
All sound files are stored on a SD Flash Memory card for easy handling.
The EV-5000 is the smart choice for a wide range of applications such as schools, convenience
stores, factories, office buildings or hotels. In the minimal setup the system is working cost-effective
with only 1 main-amplifier and a backup-amplifier. In this mode it is possible to implement 4 paging
zones. It is possible to realise projects with additional relay-boards due to its 4 line outputs, or if
even more zones are required, up to 10 EV-5000 can be linked together to control up to 80
speaker zones.
The EV-5000 detects all connected components by an automatic set-up run. The identified items
are clearly shown on the display and will then be supervised completely by the system.

9. Installation
– see overview page 4 –
9.1 Power Supply
The device is designed for use with 230V AC 50 to 60 Hz mains power. Power can be switched
ON/OFF by the rear side mains power rocker switch.
A backup power providing 24V DC can be connected via a 2-pole pluggable screw terminal. The
rocker switch only breaks the mains power, not the 24V backup power. Both power sources are
monitored by the system. If during the installation run there is no backup power source connected,
the presence of the 24V DC power source is not supervised. Powering from a 24V DC source only
is not possible, since the system will generate always an error message as soon as mains power
fails, regardless what the state was during the installation run.
9.2 Connection of Power Amplifiers
Amplfier inputs have to be connected to the OUT CH1...OUT CH4 pluggable screw terminals, the
backup amplfier to the OUT SPARE connections. All outputs of the EV-5000 are transformer
coupled (balanced and floating) for trouble free operation. Therefore the cable shields have to be
connected at one end only. The following drawing shows some wiring for balanced and unbalanced
amplifier inputs:

These samples are valid for amplifiers, which are earthed by a 3-pole mains power cord and plug.
If all-insulated (double isolation, 2-pole mains power plug) amplfiers are used, which have also no
GND connection via a backup power supply, the shield must be connected on the EV-5000 side
(GND screw terminal) too.
The amplifier outputs (100V types only) are to be connected to the AMP IN1...AMP IN4 inputs and
SPARE AMP IN input respectively.
9.3 Connecting Speaker Lines
Speaker Lines are to be connected to the CH1 OUT...CH4 OUT terminals.
CAUTION!
For error free functioning of supervision, the minimum load has to be 10 Watts per zone at 22 kHz.
Please be aware, that speaker impedances are frequency dependent, so each line has to draw
10 watts at 22 kHz not at 1 kHz. If it would be less, please connect a resistor 1 Kiloohm/10Watts in
parallel to the last speaker on the line. Maximum power must not exceed 800Watts/100V per zone.

9.4 Connecting Call Stations
The fireman call stations can be connected to the rear side pluggable screw terminals (EV-EVAC1,
Fire Mic1) or to the front side DIN connector (5-pole, 180°, Fire Mic2) for EV-EVAC MIC. Pin layout
is as follows:
Pins 1 + 3 = MIC capsule
Pins 4 + 5 = switch input (PTT)
Pin 2 = GND, shield
4 2 5
1
3
The subzone call stations EV-P4 are to be connected to the so designated pluggable screw
terminals or to the RJ45 connector. Up to about 30 EV-P4 can be connected in parallel. The RJ45
connectors pin layout is the same as the screw terminals:
1 = BUSY
2 = GND
3 = Coil (CAPsule) hot
4 = Coil (CAPsule) cold
5 = Key1
6 = Key2
7 = Key3
8 = Key4
The cable length with EV-EVAC1 and EV-P4 can be extended up to maximum 500 Meters. Of
course only well screened and twisted pair cable has to be used such as communications
installation cable F/UTP 4x2x0.8mm or CAT5/6. Due to analog signal type, there will be a high
frequency cut when extending cable length to more than about 200 Meters.
Attention!
Please note the pair pin layout, which differs from a standard network cable layout. The second
twisted pair (MIC coil) has to be connected to pins 3 and 4 and not, as usual in network
systems, to pins 3 and 6. However if pre-assembled network cables (CAT5,CAT6) are used, length
is limited to about 10 meters.
The EV-PAGE call stations (80 channel) are to be connected as well to pluggable screw terminals
as to a RJ45 connector. Up to 8 EV-PAGE can be connected in parallel. The RJ45 pin layout is also
the same as the screw terminals:
1 = +15V DC
2 = GND (0V[15V])
3 = RS485 +
4 = RS 485 –
5 = GND
6 = EVAC
7 = Capsule (CAP) hot
8 = Capsule (CAP) cold
Maximum cable run is 200 Meters. Only well shielded twisted pair telecommunications cable may
be used such as F/UTP 4x2x0.8 or CAT5/6. It is possible to extend the cable run up to 500 Meters,
if the DC power supply (normally 15V DC) will not drop below 14V at any call station. If so, please
add further pairs of wire in parallel to the supply leads. Here is also valid: cable runs with more than
about 200 Meters will cause a high frequency loss.
Attention!
Again: please note the pair pin layout, which differs from a standard network cable layout. The
second twisted pair (RS485) has to be connected to pins 3 and 4 and not, as usual in network
systems, to pins 3 and 6. However if pre-assembled network cables (CAT5,CAT6) are used, length
is limited to about 10 meters. The pin layout on 7+8 for the MIC coil is suitable in any case.
9.5 Connecting Program/Background music sources and AUX with request contact
The IN PRG cinch connector is the input for program/background music. Line sources with a 0 dBu
(=0.775B RMS) level are to be connected.
The AUX cinch connector is for line sources providing a dry contact for request such as a
spotplayer for instance. Line level has to be 0.775V RMS too. The contact must be wired to AUX
screw terminal and GND.
11EN
EV-5000
ic audio
9.6 Further Control Inputs
To start stored alarm messages (for instance evacuation) the screw terminals EMY1 and EMY2
(against GND) can be used. The message is running as long as the control input is shorted to
GND. All wiring is monitored, this is why 2 resistors have to be added to a switch as shown below:
Alarm switch box
EV-5000
EMY1 / 2
Line
4K7
GND
4K7
The chime (for breaks) and a stored message (for instance shop closing announcement) can be
started by an external control key (normally open, NO). The corresponding screw terminals are
designated CHIME and MSG (message). They have to be wired against GND. These control inputs
are not supervised and therefore no resistors are necessary.
9.7 Relay Contacts EMY and ERR
The dry contact designated EMY (emergency, normally open, NO) is active during an
announcement via a fireman call station or during a stored alarm anouncement (evacuation) run.
The EMY dry contacts are useful for energising priority override relays for instance. Furthermore
this contact is active on the installation run.
An ERR called dry contact (Error, normally open, NO) is active on all error messages from the
system. This is intended to control indicator lamps for instance.
9.8 Cascading, Master/Slave Operation
If the amount of zones is not adequate, Master/Slave systems can be configured. Up to 10 units
(1 Master and up to 9 Slaves) can be cscaded by 2 RJ45 connectors (CASCADE) in each unit for
simple looping in.
CAUTION!
Each unit (Master and Slave) must have its own backup amplifier. The backup amps ouput
power must be the same as the most powerful operational amplifier.
All EV-PAGE callstations are to be connected only to the master unit and not to any slave.
However the EV-P4 callstations can be connected to both Master and Slave units and will call to
zones connected to each unit only. It is not possible to make calls via EV-P4 from Slave to Master,
from Slave to Slave or vice versa. Of course EV-PAGE can call in all zones.
If AUX-input, Message and Chime (for breaks) should be started in all systems at a time, the
control contacts and the AUX audio signal inputs have to be paralleled. For activating stored
emergency announcements in Slaves, a separate alarm switch (with resistors for monitoring) has
to be installed each. As an alarm announcement is started in a Master unit, the Slaves will start as
well in zones and with levels as programmed in the particular Slave unit and with sound files as
recorded on their SD-card.
All error messages coming from Slaves will be shown globally in the Master unit as „SLAVE
SYSTEM“ and in the respective Slave with there detected details. Errors coming from a Master unit
will not be shown in Slaves.
12EN
EV-5000
The maximum length of the interconnection cable is limited on a few meters only, that is to say all
units have to be mounted into the same rack.
Each unit can be configured as Master and Slave by setting internal jumpers. If one unit only is
used, it has to be jumpered as a Master. Please find below two images, which show Master and
Slave configuration. The yellow arrows point at jumpers to be set, whereas the yellow rectangles
indicate pins which will stay open.

9.9 Display Language in EV-5000
Language can be altered by exchanging the 93C86 EEPROM (on socket, see stripy IC on Slave
image above). Language EEPROMs are available from ic-audio. Before exchanging disconnect the
unit from all power sources. After the replacement the factory settings have to be loaded – see
chapter 13. By this procedure all programming will be deleted and the unit has to be configured
again.
9.10 Port for Personal Computer
A RS232 port is provided to connect a PC. For getting started no PC is necessary, but it will
provide for a quick and comfortable overview on all parameters and helps keeping records – see
chapter 13 too.
9.11 Application of 100Volts Volume Controls
Because of non constant impedance, the application of 100Volts volume controls in monitored
systems is out of question. An impedance change will of course originate an impedance error. The
following compromise can be offered in cases, where 100Volts volume controls must be used:
1. Priority override relays have to be connected for instance to the EMY relay contact of the EV5000.
2. Impedance monitoring will be switched off as described in chapter programming sub menue
switch ON/OFF measuring impedance deviation.
3. Switching off impedance monitoring, will of course not switch OFF short circuit and open line
detection. Some volume controls break the line as they were turned to zero volume. To avoid
having an open line error in this case, a 1 kiloohm 10 watts resistor has to be added at the input of
the volume controls. If this is not done, an open line error will be generated as the controls shall be
turned to zero volume.
4. Of course all volume controls have to be turned to maximum volume as the installation run is
started. This will be an automatic function, if the EMY relay contact is used to control the priority
override relays, since it is active as the installation run is proceeding.
14EN

10. Setting up the System
After having assembled all components ready for use, the input sensivity of all power amplifiers
has to be adjusted to 0.21 Volt for 20 Volts of output voltage at a 22 kHz test frequency. If need be
also 1 kHz can be used as no test equipment with 22 kHz is available. The deviation of this must
not exceed ± 3 dB, that is to say the input sensivity has to be within 149 to 297 Millivolts for
20 Volts of output voltage.
Very Important!
After that, the installation run has to be started under full operational condition of all
components ( = all wiring completed, all power switches ON) in the system as follows:
Press the PROGRAM key
Press Key T3
Enter password = 3x pressing PROGRAM key consecutively
Press again key T3
As to be seen in the display, the installation run will start. If Slave units are present, these devices
will start their installation run at the same time, but the run can also be started separately for each
Slave in the same way. All connected components will be detected, shown in the display of the
central unit and installed.
After accomplishing the installation process, the following components are supervised:
EV-EVAC1, EV-EVAC MIC, the EV-PAGE cables in case of allocated address, alarm control
switches, power amplifiers, speaker lines, mains- and battery voltage.
If for instance an amplifiers fails, within 100 seconds there will be an acoustical warning (buzzer,
siren) and the error is indicated in the display. The backup amplifier will automatically be switched
in place of the defective operational amplifier – both input and output.
When not starting the installation run, no monitoring will take place and some of the system
components will not function.
To stop sounding the siren press the PROGRAM key, then key T2 (reset) and after that key T1
(= siren OFF). After having repaired the defective amplifier, a reset has to be made. In order to do
so, press the PROGRAM key again, then key T2 and once again T2 (LINE RLAYS). The error will
be resetted, the before faulty amplifier will be switched back to normal operation.

activated.
Caution!
In a standard configuration as shown on page 4, the line relays have to be cleared – no
numbers set. This will continue backgroundmusic on the not adressed zones during an
announcement.
In the following special examples 12.1 and 12.2, programming has to be done different
according to the requirements of these configurations. Because of supervision, here
the line relays have to be programmed inverse, that is to say in zones, in which a call
should go, the relays stay not energised. In zones, where the call should not be
heard, the relays will be energised and so switch these zones OFF. For programming
line relays this means, that always relays have to be activated, which have to switch
OFF zones. In the screen shown above the call will sound in all 4 zones.
By programming each single key of the callstations individually with audio and relay
switch functions, it is possible to generate single call and any combination of zones for
group calls and all call. When using EV-REL relay cards, those have to be programmed
additionally by means of their DIP-switches – see chapter 21 EV-REL.
The subzone callstations EV-P4 cannot be used together with EV-REL relay
cards.
Pressing the PROGRAM key will always return to the previous menu.

if a call goes to zone 2,3 or 4 the background music will be stopped in all these zones. Of course
zone 1 will not be affected.
Programming for distributing a call in zone 3 for instance shall be executed as follows:
Activate audio on CH2, on all other channels audio has to be deactivated.
Energise relays 2 and 4 as a call goes to zone 3.
As already mentioned, relays have to be activated, which must switch OFF zones. In principle the
same is valid for emergency announcements or inhouse messages (MSG) for instance.
During a call, switched OFF zone speaker lines were connected to the backup amplifier by the line
relays. The backup amplifier provides for the check tone too, so that switched OFF zones are
monitored permanently.

Running lower priority sources like chime and EV-P4 do not initiate a busy status in the EV-PAGE
call station.
The EV-PAGE callstations among each other have block mode priority, that is to say the first
activated EV-PAGE in a system has priority, all others were busy and blocked.
EV-P4 callstations among each other have no priority. So if keys at two EV-P4 were pushed
simultaneously, both will be active. Please observe the busy signalling LED before pushing a call
key when using an EV-P4.
An active higher priority audio source will trigger busy status, which is indicated by a quickly
flashing busy LED in EV-P4 and by showing BUSY in the EV-PAGEs display.
An EV-P4 sub zone call station connected to a slave unit can make calls in its slave system at the
same time, as another EV-P4 on a master unit shall do. There is no interference one to another.
16. Soundfile Card
All sound files are stored on a SD-card inside the device. The system can play MP3 or wave sound
formats. For MP3 files a bit rate of 128 Kbit/s, sample frequency 44.1 kHz, Mono or more is
recommended, which will provide nearly CD sound quality.
The sequence of the files on the SD-card has to be absolutely maintained, since the system
accesses the files on the basis of the sequence:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
16 kHz test tone

In order to edit sound files, first the device has to be disconnected from all power supply, both
mains and 24V DC battery power. After removing the cover, the SD-card can be extracted and
inserted in a SD card slot of a computer.
Concerning the sequence, please be aware that most operating systems (Windows© too) do not
show the true sequence. When copying files please proceed as follows:
24EN

5. Emergency announcement 1 mark, copy and paste
6. Emergency announcement 2 mark, copy and paste
7. Message mark, copy and paste
8. Chime for breaks mark, copy and paste
After reinserting the SD card into the EV-5000, the sequence can be checked by pressing the
PROGRAM key and then T4. The file numbers and the file names are displayed one after another.
The file names may contain up to 8 characters.
The 16 kHz test tone has to be placed first and as original sound file on the card, it is stored also
first on the card on delivery.
Each of the 6 above mentioned storage places have to be recorded. If places are not used, store
empty sound files instead.
Sound files should have a 1 second pause at the beginning – with the exception of the test tone of
course.

17. EV-PAGE 80-Channel Call Station
The comfortable call station EV-PAGE can address up to 80 zones.
By means of a numeric keyboard and a display all functions can be
operated very comfortable.
Additional there are control keys for single call, group call and
all call as well as for programming and starting emergency
announcement 1.
Busy status is shown in the display as clear text and by a red
luminous ring on the gooseneck microphone.
The programming function – to be accessed via the PROGRAM
key – allows also for switching ON/OFF the background music,
labelling zones for indicating in the display and the allocation of an
address.
Pressing the PROGRAM key will show in the display:
1=MUSIC ON
3=TEXT
4=NR00
Pressing key 1 will switch ON/OFF backgrond music for all zones
simultaneously. ON/OFF will toggle cyclically on each push.
By means of key 3 the first 44 zones can be labelled to be displayed
on the EV-PAGE:
KEY 01
ZONE
0=NEXT
That means:
Zone 01 is labelled ZONE.
By key 0 the next zone to be labelled can be selected.
By key PROGRAM the cursor is moved and by key ALARM the menu is left. When leaving, all
entries are stored automatically.
To enter texts, the numeric keys are multiple used, characters can be chosen by several pushing a

Key 4 allows for allocating an address to the call station. Addresses can be selected in the range of
00 to 08. If 00 ist assigned, the ALARM key has no function, whereas the addresses 01 to 08 will
unblock the ALARM key for starting emergency announcement 1 (EMY1).
That is why this setting has to be adjusted by the installer only!
It has absolutely to be avoided to enter the same address double in a system. After modifying an
address, the so called installation run has to be started – see chapter 10. As the alarm start
function is then enabled, also the data lines of the EV-PAGE are monitored.
Procedure for allocating an address:
1. After pressing the PROGRAM key press and hold key 4.
2. Pess the PROGRAM key and hold it as well
3. Release key 4, then release key PROGRAM
After each key sequence, the address number will be increased by one:
00 - 01 - 02...08 - 00 - 01 and so on.

Programming zones has to be done in the EV-5000 central unit.
Any zones can be defined, also several on one button, all call
included.
The busy LED indicates by continuous lighting that a fireman call
station is active. Quickly flashing indicates that a preannouncement
chime, an emergency announcement or a message is just running
as well as another call station (EV-PAGE or EV-P4) is active or
the AUX input is requested. The busy signalling has to be observed
to avoid two persons talking at the same time, since the EV-P4 have
no priority function among each other. Of course in busy state
coming from a higher priority sound source, calls are blocked.

The relay card EV-REL is an open board to be built in a housing or in a rack. A flange mounted
bracket allows for fast and easy fixing on mounting rails (DIN rail 35x7,5 or 35x15mm).
EV-REL provides 4 relays (R1...R4) with 2 dry changeover contacts each.
It can be controlled by the 80-channel MIC bus of a EV-5000 Master and/or 5 control contacts. For
easily inserting into a call station bus, 2 parallel RJ45 sockets are available.
Each relay can be programmed by means of DIP-switches. By switching speaker lines in inverse
mode, the supervising functions from Master/Slave units will be maintained.
Power has to be supplied by an external 24V DC source, for instance by a mains adaptor or by the
continuous output of a battery manager.

The device consists of the following functional units:
1.
2.
3.
4 decoder units, which accept commands from the 80-channel call station bus
4 DIP-switch blocks, which distribute the decoder outputs to the 4 relays
5 DIP switch blocks, which handle the contact inputs also for EV-P4,
4x zones and 1x busy
1 decoder for global commands, which control all 4 relays simultaneously
So there are 10 selectable switch functions, which can be allocated optional to each of the 4 relays.
Indeed one relay can be assigned to multiple switch functions, as well as one switch function can
control multiple relays at the same time.
21.1 Application of EV-REL for extending zones
Data coming from the 80-channel bus are fed to 4 decoders, consisting of an 8-pole + 4-pole DIPswitch and an evaluation electronics. By the 8-pole DIP switches the binary address is defined, to
which each decoder will be sensitive to. The 4-pole DIP-switch distributes the decoders output to
the 4 relays. The following code table contains the binary codes for each available function –
D8...D5 most significant byte, D4...D1 least significant byte. So if a decoder should switch relays as
the message (MSG) is running, the following address is to be entered:
ON
98H = 1001 1000 or
D8=1, D7=0, D6=0, D5=1, D4=1, D3=0, D2=0, D1=0
Thereby means
0 = DIP switch OFF and
1 = DIP switch ON.
The related 4-pole switch matrix will define the relays to be energised,
in the adjacent sample these are relays R1, R3 and R4.
D8 D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1
ON
R1 R2 R3 R4
As already explained, for inverse function of line relays control, the
not active lines have to be switched. So in this example the message will only be heard in the
zone, which is connected to relay 2.
Attention!
The global decoder has to be set to address AAH as the EV-REL is used for extending the
number of zones in inverse programming mode – see following list of codes. In the inverse
mode the global decoder can no longer be used for global functions.
The inverse mode will cause all relays to be energised on all cards, as soon as a call key is
pressed on the EV-PAGE. Single decoders take priority over the global decoder, in that way that
relays for programmed speaker lines remain not energised and so signals will be heard on just
these lines.
Furthermore the PRIO - input of the contact switch matrix has to be connected to GND.
This will change the PRIO 4-DIP-switch block into
a relay selector switch for group call (group call
T2
T1
key on EV-PAGE). The DIP-switches R1 to R4
ON
ON
T1
below PRIO determine relays, which switch after
pressing the group call key. Here too inverse

21.2 Application of EV-REL for getting additional switch functions
Besides using EV-REL in invers programming mode for extending zones, it can also be applied in
normal mode for getting additional switch functions.
Any switch functions can be implemented, for instance to trigger control lamps or priority override
relays, switching illuminations and so on.
The global decoder then can have the code lists second page addresses too (of course not the
AAH!). At the single decoders 1 to 4 – as in inverse mode – addresses from the subsequent list of
codes can be set as described before.
The global decoder has no switch matrix, its output will always energise all 4 relays at the same
time.
In addition to the 80 channel bus, in normal mode the inputs of the contact switch matrix T1 to T4
and PRIO can be used. These inputs can be connected to the switch outputs of the EV-P4
subzone call stations for instance. Each of the 5 inputs is to be routed via a 4-pole DIP-switch to
the 4 relays. The switch inputs have high level (+5V) when not activated and are to be connected
to GND for activation.

Sample:
If relay 2 should switch as input T4 will be
grounded, at DIP switch T4 R2 (relay 2)
is to be set to the ON position. All other
switches have to be set to the opposite
(OFF) position.

22.2 Expansion by means of relay cards
Adding up to 20 EV-REL maximum 80 zones can be addressed.
There are some limitations using relay cards: At all EV-REL connected to one 100V line output of
EV-5000, background music is switched off as soon as only one zone is addressed. The reason for
this is, that one amplifier cannot transmit two different signals (Call and BGM) at a time. Of course
this is not valid for the remaining three zones of the EV-5000, to which no EV-RELs are connected.
Attention should be paid to the fact, that EV-P4 subzone callstations will not work together with
EV-REL.

22.3 Expansion with one Master and up to 9 Slave units:
In that case up to (1+9)*4 = 40 zones can be established without using EV-REL. Background music
and calls can be transmitted individually per zone without interfering each other. Each Master and
each Slave unit must have its own backup (spare) amplifier.
For each Slave there are now additional functions and further accessories can be connected:
1 preannouncement chime individually switchable at Master and Slaves. So preannoucement
chime can be switched on at Master and switched off at Slaves or vice versa.
2 stored emergency announcements
1 AUX-input with contact activating (request)
1 stored message
1 chime for breaks
1 program/backgroundmusic input
The preceding additional Slave sources can only be used in the respective Slave unit. They cannot
be routed to another Slave or to the Master unit.
Up to 30 EV-P4 per Slave, the Master can have also up to 30 EV-P4 simultaneously.
EV-PAGE and EV-EVAC have to be connected to the Master unit only.

22.4 Mixed expansion in Master/Slave configuration and added relay cards
To the Master and also to each Slave unit EV-REL cards can be connected, all together up to 20
pieces. This quantity can also be devided between Master and Slave units. The maximum
addressable number of zones is limited to 80 as in relay card only expansion too. For distribution of
background music via relay cards connected to Slave units, the same is valid as mentioned in
chapter 22.2.
