Biamp 920-01989-00001 Vocia TTS-2
Product Overview
The Biamp Vocia TTS-2 is a networked text-to-speech engine built for large-scale paging and mass notification within a Biamp Vocia system. It converts typed text into clear voice announcements in multiple languages and voices, then sends them digitally over CobraNet to the destinations you choose. Designed for facilities such as transportation hubs, healthcare campuses, and government spaces, this rack-mount announcement engine supports user-defined templates and interfaces with Rauland-Borg nurse call systems. The TTS-2 requires a Vocia Message Server-1e (MS-1e) for operation.
Product Description
The Vocia TTS-2 text-to-speech engine automates live and scheduled announcements so operators can publish consistent messaging without recording audio by hand. It builds announcements from a set of user-defined templates and includes 130 Voice Fonts, giving system designers control over language, voice, and phrasing across a distributed paging system. Announcements are created through a browser-based web interface and delivered digitally over CobraNet, while Ethernet-based control protocols handle integration and third-party control via the TTS-2 VTP interface. The engine occupies a single rack unit and provides separate ports for TCP/IP control and CobraNet audio, which keeps the head-end organized during rack-mount installation. Front-panel rotary switches simplify unit identification at commissioning, and a status LED reports device state at a glance. For healthcare deployments, the TTS-2 interfaces directly with Rauland-Borg Nurse Call Responder 5 systems, adding text-to-speech to nurse-call workflows. Because it operates only within a Biamp Vocia system, the TTS-2 pairs with Vocia servers and I/O to form a complete networked announcement platform for commercial AV integration.
