The Edwards 5540MP Millennium Central Tone Generator, when used with the 5542RPU Remote Paging Unit, is designed for applications where voice paging and other audio output are desired. The paging/voice signal is inputed into the Remote Paging Unit via either an audio pair or the 5542MIC series microphone.

The Millennium Central Tone Generator produces the 55 standard Adaptatone sounds. The tone generator assures a synchronous signaling sound from all remote speakers. Three tones may be programmed into the Tone Generator at any time. The tones may be selected by setting miniature dip switches within the unit. The tones operate on a pyramid-type priority system. The input from the Remote Page Unit has priority over all three tones. The three signals may be activated from field-wired, normally open contacts or a 240V DC external voltage source such as an output from a PLC. Normally open contacts can be obtained from the Cat. No. 5538-4 or Cat. No. 5538-4R Adaptatone Signal Actuator.

Adaptatone Signaling Systems are designed for industrial applications calling for high decible output, voice paging, and microprocessor reliability combined with simultaneous signal delivery over all speakers included in the system. Typical applications include: emergency warning systems, plant evacuation alarms, security intrusion sirens, process monitoring, shift start-and-dismissal horns, and paging signals.
