July 2018 Operations Manual CB901EX FEATURE DESCRIPTION HANDSET / LOUDSPEAKING When two intercom stations are connected, either party may speak to the other hands free without touching any buttons. CONFIDENTIAL /SOFTSPEAKING At any time during the call, either one or both parties may pick up their station ( AA918) and use it as a handset for a confidential conversation.
CB901EX Operations Manual July 2018 ALARM Long DC shift (1sec<) will send ALARM to the call number programmed for direct access. LINE SUPERVISION Line Supervision is activated with privilege #10. Zero Volt on the audio line will send FAULT to the call number programmed for Direct Access.
July 2018 Operations Manual CB901EX PRIORITY When a station is programmed with the privelege “Priority” it may connect to a busy or privacy station by dialing “0” . This is only possible if the busy station does not have Priority privelege.
CB901EX Operations Manual July 2018 PAGING Allows for one way paging from one station to other stations in the exchange and will override calls in progress (they will reconnect when the Page is completed).There are 15 paging groups in thesystem. Each group contains the call numbers that are included in the page (group call) or excluded from the page (all call).

TWO WAY RADIO The CB901EX system may be connected to a radio base station for communication on a closed two-way radio network. An interface unit (IF935) is required and is given an ordinary subscriber number.
CB901EX TELEPHONE NETWORK An interface (IF934P) can be supplied to operate between a telephone network and the CB901EX. The interface is used to make calls from any intercom station to the telephone network and to make a call from an outside telephone to any intercom station.
7. Customer introduction and training. CENTRAL LOCATION A summary of the environmental factors affecting the Ring-Master CB901 system is presented in the listing below. These factors must be considered when developing a detailed system plan. Site preparation is dependent upon the customer’s facilities. In many cases, there may be only one location where the central and power supply (or transformer) can be mounted.
July 2018 Operations Manual CB901EX C. Location of existing telephone ducts or conduit. D. The AC line should be dedicated exclusively to the system. If the line is equipped with a circuit breaker at the service entrance panel, the circuit breaker switch should be labeled «DO NOT TURN OFF».
CB901EX Operations Manual July 2018 The wire dimensions for stations located further from the central must be increased accordingly. However, independent local DC power supplies can be used for distant stations. No reference wiring between local and central power supplies is required.
July 2018 Operations Manual CB901EX CABLE TERMINATION IN STATION SOCKET Station type: Master Stations AA918, AA917 w/display - modular 8 pin RJ45 socket. Leads No. 1 and No. 2 - Audio Signaling Leads Lead No. 1 to be connected to pin No. 5 in the RJ45 station socket.
Using 27 V also permits longer cabling from stations to central with a 3 V tolerance to 24 V control voltage drop on longer cable runs. Ring-Master supplies a standard DC power unit PSDC24V12A which is factory-adjusted to 27 V and can supply 12 Amp. It is adjustable .

July 2018 Operations Manual CB901EX POWER REQUIREMENTS. Power for stations: Power needs for stations are based upon the basic figure of 250 mA per station. Station power is connected to screw terminals on the power distribution board PCB935 (in DP979 and DP980) marked + and - 24VDC.
12 or 13. In CB901EX systems the card positions 12 and 13 are used for Interlink B Card NFE1545. If not used then the Subscriber Card NFE1625 can be installed in these positions, giving a total of 88 subscribers in the Basic Cardrack.

2. To deactivate an alarm channel the 24V DC «enable signal» must be disconnected (back to open circuit on «alarm enable» input). Battery Operation Function - cable no. 2. When CB901EX Systems are installed as no-break system (connected to emergency power - battery bank) it is important to cut out the Program Distribution Feature when there is a mains power failure.
Page 24
Operations Manual July 2018 STATION POWER SUPPLY. In a fully equipped Ring-Master System CB901EX all stations can simultaneously be connected to program channels - 240 stations. The total power consumption will then be approx. 36 Amp. (240 x 0.150 A).
July 2018 Operations Manual CB901EX POWER ON SYSTEM CHECK NOTE: Always turn OFF the central power (NFE1528) before plugging the cards in or out of the cardracks. Pull all NFE1625 cards out of the plugs (approx. one inch) except the card in position No. 2. Test one card position at a time.
CB901EX Operations Manual July 2018 Plug in the rest of the NFE1625/PCB978 cards, one by one and connect the corresponding flat cable to the back of the motherboard in the cardrack. Make a call between the stations in positions 00 and 01.
July 2018 Operations Manual CB901EX FINAL CHECK OUT OF THE SYSTEM INTRODUCTION When the system has been installed and programmed, perform the following checks to verify the operation of the system and related equipment. If the system is found to be faulty, use the following guidelines to locate the faulty station or printed circuit board(s) and replace the part.
CB901EX Operations Manual July 2018 SERVICE INFORMATION CAUTION: Always turn power OFF before changing subscriber boards in the central exchange The CB 901EX system is a microprocessor controlled system and for servicing/maintenance a certain level of such knowledge is needed together with some understanding of the software.
