Control Events

A Vocia Control Event allows contact closure based control for a Vocia World.

Control Input Events can be driven by external equipment to the Control Input connections available on the VI-6, VI-8, VO-4, VO-4e and GPIO-1 hardware or via an MS-1(e) using the Scheduler and World Control Handles. Alternatively, Virtual Control Input Events can be configured on the VoIP-1 and POTS-1 which can be asserted by calling in to the system and using keypad (DTMF tones) control. These inputs can then be associated using the Vocia software. Please see the Control_Input_Events section.

Emergency Control Input Events can be driven by external equipment to the Control Input connections available on the LSI-16, LSI-16e and GPIO-1 hardware. The LSI-16 and LSI-16e also support Virtual Inputs operated via LSI-VTP from an external control system connected vie RS-232 or IP. Supported input types include Emergency Fault, Emergency Zone Alarm and Emergency Zone Reset. Please see the Emergency_Control_Input_Events section.

Control Output Events allow external control systems or indicators to be used to monitor Vocia system parameters. These include both Non Emergency and Emergency functions. Emergency functions require a LSI-16 or LSI-16e to be available in the Vocia World. Control Output connections are available on the VI-6, VI-8, VO-4, VO-4e and GPIO-1 hardware.
