When a Cerberus PACE Compact system is planned, the following questions must first be answered:
- In how many zones are audio signals to be emitted?
- How many zones are to be controlled individually?
- Are the zones for the 'Alarm' and 'Non-alarm' applications identical?
- How many audio channels are required?
- How many audio channels are required in parallel?
- How many call stations are required?
- Which safety level is required to safeguard against failure?
Once these questions have been answered, the network topology, the component zones, and the amplifiers can be planned.
