Listen Window The listen window is located directly above the talk window. It contains one listen label per selector. Labels refer to the listen paths that are established when the selector is pushed up. Answer-Back Window The answer-back window is located above the “Answer Back” selector. It displays a list of as many as five incoming calls.
Page 10
Page Override Page override is a special function in the station in which the intercom volume defaults to a preset to a value when commanded to by the central matrix. Any fixed group can be assigned the page-override function through the configuration program.
Page 11
Monitoring/Eavesdropping Indicators If any other station begins monitoring a station a beep (the monitoring-alert tone) will sound at the station. To inhibit the monitoring-alert tone, use the configuration program. Call-Waiting Indicator If a station calls another station with a selector programmed with the caller’s label, the red LED will flash rapidly.
Page 12
Answer-Back Facility The primary function of answer-back facility is to answer or call other stations or interfaces not assigned to a station’s selectors. Stations and interfaces that are assigned to a station’s selectors also can be answered or called with the answer-back facility.
Page 13
Removing Labels from the Answer-Back Stack Any label will be automatically removed from the stack if it is not answered within a certain time interval, which is set by the answer-back auto-clear time in the configuration program. To manually remove the current caller’s label from the answer-back stack, push up on the “Answer Back”...

Listen-Level Mode To use the listen-level adjust mode: 1. Push (for less than 1 second) and quickly release the “Listen Level” button. 2. “Listen Level Adjust Mode” will appear in the message window to indicate the function is on and the LEDs of all active listen selectors will begin to flash. Note: Only active selectors can be adjusted in listen-level mode.

View Forced Listens This function displays destinations or sources of forced listens. Use the selectors to select “Destinations” or “Sources.” Viewing destinations displays all stations or interfaces always connected to the station’s out-going audio. Viewing sources displays all stations or interfaces always connected to the station’s incoming audio.
Page 17
Warning: All station key reassignments take place immediately upon exiting this function. Active talk and listen paths will be disconnected when their labels are removed. System Configuration Menu The System Configuration menu changes some of the Eclipse System configuration parameters typically only available through the configuration program.
Page 18
Warning: All station selector reassignments take place immediately upon exiting this function. Active talk and listen paths will be disconnected when their labels are removed. Assign Forced Listens To add or remove forced listens: 1. Select “select source -> assign destinations” to choose a single source and assign it to multiple destinations.
Page 19
Dial Button (*) The “Dial” phone button turns the station keypad into a touch-tone phone keypad, allowing DTMF tones (Touch Tones) to be generated for telephone dialing. To place a telephone call: 1. Push a talk selector assigned to a telephone interface. 2.

PTT status. This input only controls latched talks. Programmable Relay Each ICS-2003 station includes a relay controlled by the system program and independent of the local station function. This relay can be assigned to any label(s) in the system, which will activate whenever a talk or listen is set to that label(s).
Mute Relay The mute relay is activated whenever any talk selector is activated at the station. The mute relay is commonly wired such that whenever it is activated, the volume of the monitor speaker in that room is decreased (muted).

The following sections describe connecting the station to the matrix frame, and all the connections between the station and local devices. Each of the following sections describes cable and station connector wiring: • Analog matrix frame to station wiring • Digital matrix frame to station wiring •...
Page 25
DIGITAL MATRIX FRAME TO STATION WIRING The ICS-2003T differs from the ICS-2003 because it contains an internal digital audio/data communications module (COM-20) that works in conjunction with the DIG-2 digital interface module to connect digital stations to the matrix. The DIG-2 digital interface module offers two options for wiring the frame to intercom stations.

feed (program audio) can be heard on the station’s speaker and headset; it cannot be heard by other stations in the Matrix system. To connect an external program feed to the station: 1. Connect the balanced audio pair to pins 1 and 9. 2.
Page 28
• PTT: Activate Two-Way Radio Keys—implements a push-to-talk function for all two-way radio talk selectors. When the logic input is active, the station operates normally. When the logic input is deactivated, all active two-way radio talk selectors are disabled. Any controls (relays, etc.) assigned to the labels are activated or deactivated along with their assigned labels.
Page 29
OPT-100 AUXILIARY AUDIO I/O OPTION The OPT-100 Auxiliary Audio option provides the following features: • Hot Mic output • SA audio and relay outputs • Auxiliary audio line level output Figure 7 shows the pinout for the intercom station’s DB-15F Auxiliary Audio I/O connector.

Both normally open and normally closed contacts are provided. They are rated at 1 Amp at 24 VDC. This relay is not designed for switching mains AC line voltage. To switch an external device running on mains AC line voltage, use an external relay (or other switching mechanism) activated by this relay (see Figure 7).
Front Panel Headset Connector Figure 9: Binaural Headset Wiring MAINS AC POWER The station has a separate, external DC power supply with a removable AC power cord. The power supply is “universal,” operating over a voltage range of 90 to 260 VAC and 45 to 65 Hz. The maximum dissipation is 30 W. A bracket has been provided to mount this external supply if necessary.
Page 32
PANEL MICROPHONE GAIN The preamplifier gain of the panel microphone can be adjusted over a range of 0 to 10 dB; the maximum is the panel microphone gain’s default setting. However, if two stations are talking to each other at the same time with the panel microphone gain set to maximum, feedback may occur even if the speaker mute (see “Speaker Mute”) is set to maximum.
Configuration System Program (see Eclipse Configuration System Manual for more information). Also refer to the Operation chapter for details regarding the configuration options available from the ICS-2003’s menus. ACCESSORY PANELS The following sections describes how to install the following optional, accessory key panels: •...
Page 34
STATION CONNECTION A cable is supplied with each panel to connect it to a station or to additional panels. The cable is 6-ft. long (1.8 m) and has a DB-9F connector on one end and a DB-9M connector on the other end. If custom length cables are to be made, they should be made with 9 conductor control cable with 22 to 24 AWG wire.
MAINTENANCE INTRODUCTION This chapter provides station microprocessor resetting instructions, maintenance menu use, troubleshooting guidelines, schematics, assembly drawings, and component lists. STATION RESET The station’s microprocessor has a reset button located in an unmarked hole just below the program volume knob on the right side of the unit’s front panel. If the station is acting erratically, try resetting it by performing one of the following: •...
Page 36
• Keypad button functions do not operate, or the station beeps when a button is pressed (affected buttons could include “Assign,” “Station,” “Dial,” “Menu,” and “Swap”). 1. Ensure the function has not been inhibited from the configuration program of the station’s local Configuration menu. 2.
Page 37
5. Test the integrity of the station’s audio path by temporarily setting a forced ‘ listen to it. 6. Reset the station’s Matrix card in the Matrix frame. 7. Replace the station’s Matrix card in the Matrix frame. 8. Reset the station. 9.
