The A 1730A is an MP3 based message player and tone generator designed for public address, security, customer direction or emergency evacuation announcements.
This compact message player can be custom programmed with tones, messages or music for use in interactive displays, security, customer entry and emergency evacuation announcements. When combined with a Redback A 1709 timer it can play announcements at prescribed times for in-store advertising and customer notification.

It allows playback of custom MP3 tracks plus standard alert and evacuation tones. A library of commonly used tones, messages and phrases are provided on the unit’s internal storage along with standard tones, including bell, bing bong, siren and pre announcement chime, plus Australian Standard alert and evacuationtones (complying to AS1670.4). These can be downloaded to a micro SD card and then custom MP3 tones, music etc may be added as desired. To comply with Australian Standards for evacuation tones, a custom message may be played after every fourth cycle providing evacuation instructions to occupants. Alert tones can be automatically switched to evacuation tones after a set period (adjustable 30-240 seconds).

Playback for each track can be activated by a closing set of contacts. Contacts may be configured between alternate or momentary action. This can include or exclude alert & evacuation tones as desired. Cancel contacts are provided to stop playback of tracks. Playback can also be manually triggered by front panel switches (if activated via the DIP settings on the rear panel). Optional dedicated messages can be played on each trigger cancellation. A 9-30V DC switched output is available which is activated when any message is active (the switched output is dependent on the input voltage)
