Description
The BTQ-SG8 Secondary Global Unit is an extension for the BTQ-VM4/VM8 main controllers. Up to 64 BTQ-VM4/VM8 or BTQ-SG8 units can be cascaded via a fully redundant Global-Net. The BTQ-SG8 supports up to 1000 W speaker load per zone, with a maximum of 2000 W per unit. It expands system I/O capacity with 9 monitored EVAC inputs (triggered by dry contact or relay), 8 logic control inputs, and 8 relay control outputs. Two digital interfaces allow connection of up to 8 paging consoles or remote units each, via daisy-chain or redundant loop. A USB port is available for message or music file playback. Compliant with EN54-16 and UL2572, all BOUTIQUE components and peripherals are fully monitored—from the paging microphone capsule to the end of speaker lines. Monitoring includes detection of short circuits, open circuits, and leakage. Volume attenuators can also be installed on monitored speaker lines. The BTQ-SG8 is eco-friendly, featuring ultra-low power consumption in standby mode.
