Notifier MIC-1 — hand-held local paging microphone for the Notifier DVC Digital Voice Command audio panel.
It is the microphone an operator lifts from its cradle at the panel to make a live announcement; its cable plugs into the local microphone interface at J5 on the DVC board, which gives that DVC its paging capability.
- Plugs into the DVC local microphone interface J5, marked MIC-1 LOCAL MIC on the board
- The connection is monitored for continuity once MIC-1 is enabled in VeriFire Tools
- Push-to-talk activates the DVC PTT contacts and related logic equations, and lights the MIC ACT LED
- A page from it pre-empts a local telephone page from the TELH-1 or a firefighter telephone
- Supplied with the CA-2 chassis assembly; on a CA-1 the microphone and its well are the optional CMIC-1
Notifier defines the CMIC-1 as a MIC-1 plus its well, so order that if the well is needed. The RM-1 is different: a remote microphone on its own board up to 1,000 ft from the DVC. Distributors sometimes call this a firefighter microphone, but the firefighter telephone handset on a DVC is the TELH-1 at interface J8.
