TOA Electronics Emergency Remote Microphone - RM-300MFPS

Product Overview

The TOA RM-300MF is an emergency fireman's microphone designed exclusively for the VM-3000 Series voice evacuation system. It gives first responders and trained operators direct control to start and stop pre-recorded evacuation and alert messages and to make live emergency announcements. A dedicated emergency activation key and a CPU bypass switch allow broadcasts to reach all zones even in the event of a system CPU error. The RM-300MF serves as the central operator interface for life-safety paging in commercial and institutional buildings.

Product Description

The RM-300MF connects to the VM-3000 system over shielded CPEV cable or Category 5 shielded twisted-pair (CAT5-STP), with a total run up to 800 m, and is powered at 24 V DC from the system. It includes a unidirectional dynamic microphone with a talk key and a switchable compressor for intelligible speech under pressure. Dedicated keys cover emergency, evacuate, alert, and emergency-reset functions, while a comprehensive indicator set reports power, emergency, communication failure, CPU-off, evacuation and alert announcements, microphone in-use, and external equipment status. Up to three RM-320F extension units connect to the RM-300MF to add zone-selection and failure-acknowledgment keys. Microphone and buzzer volume controls let the operator balance announcement levels for the room. As a commercial-grade life-safety component, it integrates directly into the VM-3000 paging and emergency broadcast chain.
