10 channels. A microphone must be connected to the US2000A for talk on the 10 channels. Each PS4000 provides power for 4 intercom channels and also interfaces with an ES4000A to the intercom channels. The XP-USPG interfaces 2 external program inputs to the US2000A, and also interfaces the US2000A to an external PA system. Each XP-4PGM interfaces 4 external program sources to an ES4000A.

4 external program sources to the ES4000A. The XP-ES4000 interfaces 4 of the PS2000L power supplies to the 4 channels of the ES4000A. The connection between the US2000A and the ES4000A, as well as the connections of the XP-USPG and the XP-4PGM, are show in Figure 6. The power supply connections for the US2000A are shown in Figure 7.
PS2000L, etc.). Alternatively, you can use option PS-L Wall-pack Power Supplies. If you are using PS-L Wall-packs, connect them to the 12-15 VDC jacks on the back panels of the US2000A and ES4000A. When PS-L Wall-packs are used, the US2000A / ES4000A will not draw power from the intercom channel power supplies, leaving more power for belt packs.
