Follow all instructions.
Do not use this equipment near water.
Clean only with dry cloth.
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including ampliers) that produce heat.
Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.
Protect your equipment with surge protector and Uninterruptable Power Supply
(UPS)equipment.
Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required
when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as if the
power-supply cord or plug is damaged; liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus; the apparatus has been exposed to rain
or moisture; does not operate normally; or has been dropped.
Follow COMPLETE instructions for wiring the system and ALL system checks
before powering the system on for the rst time, to avoid irreversible damage
to the components. Ensure proper polarity for wiring with regard to power,
data and audio output.
Do NOT plug any n.FORM™ devices into a computer or network or like
equipment other than n.FORM™ devices unless specically asked to do
so in the installation manual.

You’re a Crucial Part of a Sound Decision
Clear direction in the event of an emergency is critical to the safety of building occupants
and employees. In today’s workplace, distraction is a norm that every employee
contends with. You have been asked to play a part of the solution in the planning for
an emergency event. There are four critical criteria for a mass notication emergency
communication (MNEC) system to be successful: Reach, Clarity, Redundancy and
Reporting.
n.FORM™ delivers on these criteria. Furthermore, you are being asked to install the
system completely so that it operates reliably at all times and delivers the messaging in
the intent that it was designed.
The equipment you are installing will play a vital role in ensuring proper communications
in the event of an emergency.
You have been provided with state-of-the-art equipment and technology to install,
test, tune and nalize. As such, your goals for the completed installation should be:
Tuning the system to the proper dB level
Achieving proper sound uniformity
Managing expectations for the product
Leaving the customer with a properly installed mass notication system
Mass notication involves much more than a series of speakers, switches and wiring
deployed throughout the oce or campus.
Congratulations on being asked to perform a vital service for this client. You will leave
the workspace a better, safer place to work.
WHAT ARE THE CRITERIA FOR PERFORMANCE?
The audio from a mass notication system must accomplish two things:
It must reach persons in all spaces.
It must be intelligible.

.01-i.LON The Lencore n.FORMTM System uses an i.LON® Server as its
head-end equipment to control the networked system. The i.LON®
Server offers exceptional features, solid construction, plus the
flexibility to monitor and control the sound masking from virtually
anywhere.
.02-MPI-6 Lencore’s Music Page Interface (MPI) replaces all
the bulky head end equipment that is associated with music and
paging systems. With the MPI there is no need for additional
cable home-runs, amplifiers, separate equalizers, special
switching equipment or matching vendors for compatible
product interfaces. The MPI’s technology is so sophisticated that
it can allow zone additions, modifications, deletions and other
changes to the paging system on the fly, without rewiring. This
eliminates the need for running multiple home runs back to the
electrical closet or through building risers to create separate or
additional zones.
.03-Jordna Hub The Jordna Hub provides the ability to split
the system’s signal and distribute it to multiple points. It
provides an input that connects to the OP (Rack Mount) and has
four outputs that enable the hub to branch to other OP (Rack
Mount) locations in separate buildings or facilities. When the need
for wider system coverage and signal distribution is required,
Jordna Hubs can be connected to each other, providing clients
with almost infinite scalability to meet future growth.

.05-OP (Rack Mount) The Operating Platform (Rack Mount)
delivers superior intelligible messaging, quadruples the number of
speakers from one in-plenum operating platform and has four times
the number of channels, compared to the Spectra i.Net® OP –
creating coverage up to 6 million square feet per system.
2.1 | system components
.04-SmartSwitch The Lencore SmartSwitch provides total data
and audio redundancy to any n.FORM™ system.

.08-Free Topology (FT) Terminator The free topology
terminator is used to change the topology of the network from a
BUS to a free or flexible topology.
.06-Speakers Emerald Technology speakers are designed to be
an integrated part of the Lencore n.FORM™ engineered system
solution. Each speaker, when used with the OP (Rack Mount),
produces nearly twice the sound level of other systems.
.07-Router A router ensures quality data transmission, paging and
music integrity across long cable runs. Each router terminates
and rebroadcasts signals back to full strength allowing the system
wiring network to work at best practices standards.

.09-RAMP (pre-recorded messages) Designed to address
paging and mass communication needs, the RAMP™ (Record,
Audio, MPEG Player) offers the necessary features for a variety
of audio announcement applications, ranging from public
addresses to safety announcements.
.10-Relay Used for triggering strobes, pre-recorded messages or
other devices.
2.2 | optional accessories
.11-Strobes Strobes are visual communication devices that alert
occupants of an event. A variety of different colored strobes
are available and depending on the type of facility will often
represent a different type of emergency.

.12-Horns Lencore’s decorative paging horns are available when
a surface-mounted speaker is desired or necessary due to site
configuration or condition.

2.2 | optional accessories
.14-Paging Microphone A microphone input device is often
used to speed communication through push and talk. This device is
easily incorporated into the design of a mass notification system.
.15-Amplifiers for Horns When using a horn for loud voice
communication an amplifier is required in order to generate
enough power to make the message clear and intelligible.
.13-Mic Pre-Amp Designed to offer superior paging, the
Microphone Pre-Amplifier with Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is
Lencore’s next generation in high performance technology. The
Microphone Pre-Amplifier improves vocal clarity for paging and
emergency messaging. Each unit incorporates Automatic Gain
Control to deliver greater compression and feedback suppression.
