About the Universal Voice System (UVS)

Congratulations on your ownership of an ADEMCO Universal Voice
System (UVS). The ADEMCO UVS is comprised of a Universal Voice
Control Module (UVCM or UVCM–EU/A) and Universal Voice Station
(UVST).
The the UVCM or UVCM–EU/A, along with stations, comprise an
audio system that offers central station 2-way voice, user 2-way voice,
intercom, speakerphone, and alarm annunciation features. The
UVCM or UVCM–EU/A serves as a central audio controller. It
establishes audio signal pathways between the incoming telephone
line and stations, or between individual stations, based on the feature
being used.
The stations serve as the user interface. Each has a built-in
microphone and speaker that send audio signals to and receive audio
signals from the system. Each station has three keys, two LEDs, and
a volume control dial for controlling system operation and for
annunciating system status.
Depending on your specific installation, your Universal Voice System
may have up to 7 stations installed. These stations will have been
installed at various locations inside your premises; however, up to
two stations may have been installed outside your premises near the
front and/or back door. Stations that are installed inside your
premises are referred to as inside stations, and support all features.
Stations that are installed outside your premises are referred to as
outside stations. These stations support limited intercom, central
station, and user 2-way voice features.
