Please note the following guidelines: • Each speaker must have its own 25/70V transformer • Do not mix Speakers tapped for 25V with a 70V distribution line or speakers tapped for 70V with a 25V distribution line • All speakers must be wired in parallel. •...
8 Ohm Speaker(s) The following configurations are supported for driving 8 Ohm speakers. If you plan on driving more than one speaker, consider using 25/70V Speaker(s) with optional 25/70V transformer as described in the next section. • A single 8 Ohm speaker •...
Please note the following guidelines: • Speakers should be installed within 200 feet (60 meters) of the SE8 using 18 gauge wire • The total watts available from the SE8 are distributed equally among the speakers. Connecting Line Out or Line In Line Out The Line Out connector is designed to drive a 600 Ohm unbalanced load at -10db.
• Ensure Relay has been properly configured in the Intercom’s Software Configuration program Connecting the Sensor The IP7-SE8 supports an input Sensor that can be used for a variety of applications. The Sensor can be defined as Active Closed or Active Open via software. Digital Acoustics’ TalkMaster™ Software provides functionality for monitoring the status (open or closed) of a door via the Sensor.
• Cut a piece of 35mm DIN rail (not supplied) to the desired length and secure it to the wall • Place the IP7-SE8 onto the DIN rail by tilting the top of the unit (J1, J2, J3 connectors facing up with Volume buttons and USB-B...
