Page 10 POWERING UP SYSTEM With all zones wired and connected to the Controller and Zone Expansion Units (if any), initial testing can begin. Refer to Controls and Indicators, Terminals and Connector. Once initial testing is done, you can begin to program the Controller with the features for each zone. 1.Plug the power cord into the AC input connector on the AmpliCenter.

The other method works via the telephone access port (like calling to make a page), which accepts only touchtone telephone keypad inputs (DTMF) tones.

To verify the status of this option, dial 2 3 and repeat step 2 above. 2 4 INHIBIT DIAL TONE DETECT Supervision of the Station/Centrex Access mode is accomplished in 3 ways, by monitoring the loop current and the audio signal (including dial tone), and a forced disconnect timer.

All such input activity to the paging system can then be viewed (and recorded) on the computer. By selecting Display, the monitoring activity described above enables commands to be sent to a visual message display where preprogrammed messages are displayed.
Page 21 5 8 SPECIFY ZONE MICROPHONE This option allows you to specify that a zone microphone is attached to the Attendant Access interface. When the Zone Microphone option is enabled (ON), the controller will wait for a zone to be selected from the microphone keypad before it makes a page.
Page 22 Note: The INPUT #1 option must only be assigned to physical zones 1 through 8 (on the Controller). The factory default is OUTPUT (i.e., all zones are output type, by default). 1. Dial 6 2 to select this option. Hear a DOUBLE beep. 2.
Page 23 1 to select ON. Hear TRIPLE beeps. 4. To verify the status of this option, dial 6 7 and repeat step 2 above. OUTPUT ZONE/GROUP CONFIGURATIONS These options apply to zones or groups already configured as outputs (see Program 62, Type of Zone). All these parameters can be individually optioned per zone.
Page 24 2. Enter the zone number, of the zone or group you wish to configure. Hear a DOUBLE beep. Note: Use ALIAS numbers, if optioned. Otherwise, use physical zone/group numbers. 3. Enter 0 for NO (Page Not Enabled) or 1 for YES (Page enabled) Hear TRIPLE beeps.
Page 25 This YES option, with DTMF tones enabled to the output, is useful when you have more than one Controller connected in a system. The DTMF tone is passed through the first controller (not triggering a zone change) to the second controller (or other auxiliary device). You will need to repeat this procedure for each output zone or zone group that you wish to send DTMF tones to the output.
Page 26 4. To verify Tone Routing, dial 9 5 and repeat steps 2 and 3 above. Note: Use ALIAS numbers, if optioned. Otherwise, use physical zone/group numbers. 9 6 AUDIO SOURCE ENABLE The primary use for this feature is to allow the paging system to be used for door service. If optioned, whenever a selected zone is active (i.e., the doorbell pushbutton), an audio source (either Telephone Access or Attendant Access) will be routed automatically to a zone (the door speakerphone) selected in Audio Routing, below.

Answering the Doorbell The person inside the building, having heard the door chime, can simply dial the proper extension and establish two-way communications with the door speaker. If the input zone (door bell) has been optioned for Audio Enable, then the user's telephone access (or attendant access, depending on the option chosen in Audio Enable) connects via the paging system to the door speaker, for a period of 1 0 seconds.
