Lexicomm ViLX-RAP Remote Alarm Panel (ViLX-RAP)

Lexicomm ViLX-RAP Remote Alarm Panel

The ViLX-RAP provides an audible and visual indication of when the Lexicomm system is being used. It provides remote indication whenever a Lexicomm outstation is in use, or the Assist Call alarm is activated.

The audible buzzer may be muted whilst the cause of the alarm is investigated. When the call is ended, or the alarm cancelled, the Remote Alarm Panel will automatically cancel. The ViLX-RAP is connected to the In-Use Relay located inside the Lexicomm master station via a 2 core flame resistant cable.

The In-Use relay within the Lexicomm Master is site programmable (see appropriate manual for details) and an optional delay is available for signalling to different locations when the panel is unattended.

The ViLX-RAP is self contained and only requires a local mains supply in addition to the signal from the panel.

A relay contact is provided which can be used to cascade panels or to provide an additional volt free contact for BMS or Fire Alarm notification.

Operation

When the Remote Alarm Panel is activated, the red halo indication flashes and the buzzer sounds to make the user aware that there is a call or an alarm at the Lexicomm master station.

To mute the buzzer, press the Accept button. The red halo will be continuously lit, and the buzzer will beep periodically to indicate the call/alarm has been accepted.

When the call is ended, or the alarm cancelled, the red halo will be extinguished and the buzzer silenced.
