The SS-1002 is a single-channel station; the SS-2002 & SS-2002RM provide switch selectable access to either of two (2) intercom channels. Both the SS-1002 and the SS-2002 come in three (3) versions to suit a variety of applications.

Sidetone Trimmers - Balanced/Unbalanced Selector Switch - SS-1002/2002 Features FIGURE 1. The sidetone trimmers adjust the level of the user’s own voice in the headphones when using full-cushion headphones. When using the speaker or open-ear style headphones, the sidetone trimmers are adjusted to eliminate the user’s voice from the headphones or speaker.
Configuration Pre-check Before making connections, read the following configuration notes. Make sure all internal controls are properly set for your intended usage. To access the internal controls, do the following: Remove the four (4) screws on the front panel that secure the intercom station faceplate to the mounting box. Pull the faceplate out for all versions (except the RM version).
Mic Kill Receive Audiocom intercom stations, such as the US2002A, can transmit an inaudible signal to turn off the microphones in all remote intercom stations on an intercom channel. This is useful when a remote intercom station has been left unattended with the microphone on.
As an alternative to a headset or telephone style handset, you can use either the built-in panel microphone or an optional gooseneck microphone. To connect a Telex MCP-90 gooseneck microphone, do the following: Insert the 1/4” RTS connector into the panel microphone connector.
When a gooseneck microphone is inserted in the panel microphone connector, the built-in panel microphone is automatically bypassed. Use either of these microphones for talk back, then use the internal speaker for listening, or connect a pair of headphones to the headset connector for private listening. Intercom Channel Connections The method of connection depends on the type of box.
In isolate mode, each intercom channel is a separate party line, and total current for each channel is limited to 1 Amp. Both the SS-1002 and SS-2002 stations may be connected depending on each location’s need to communicate with one or two channels.
All Locally Powered Intercom Stations (Dry Lines) If intercom stations are widely distributed, you can dispense with a system power supply (PS2001L, SPS-2001, etc.) and use local power for each station. When no power is delivered on the intercom channels, this is known as dry-line operation. Since a system power supply is not used, a line termination must be inserted in each intercom channel for proper operation.

Sidetone Adjustment The SS-1002/2002 and the SS-2002RM use full-duplex audio in which the talk and listen audio are sent and received on the same wires when using a headset. The SS1002/2002 and the SS-2002RM use half-duplex audio when the speaker is used. A certain amount of your own voice level is desirable (called sidetone) to overcome the muffled sensation when talking.
To adjust sidetone on SS-2002 and SS-2002RM headphones, do the following: Activate channel 1. Activate talk and listen. Set the volume control to the normal listening level for intercom audio. While talking into the microphone, use a small, flat-head screwdriver to adjust the channel 1 sidetone trimmer so you can hear your own voice in the headphones at an acceptable level.
Turn ON the listen keys and begin your conversation. Turn the keys OFF when finished. NOTE: You can turn the listen key on in either momentary or latched mode. For momentary operations, press and hold the key. For latched operation, tap the key to turn it on. Then tap it again to turn it off when finished.
