SECTION 1 PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION 1.1 RECEIVING INFORMATION I M P O R T A N T This merchandise was carefully packed and thor- oughly inspected before leaving our factory. Respon- sibility for its safe delivery was assumed by the carrier upon acceptance of the shipment.
PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION 1.1.5 TOOLS REQUIRED The following tools are needed for the mechani- cal assembly and installation of the VR-CM50 Con- sole System: 1/4" Flat Blade Screwdriver #1 Phillips Screwdriver #2 Phillips Screwdriver 7/16" Open End Wrench 3/8" Nut Driver 3/16"...
SECTION 2 CENTRAL PROCESSOR PACKAGE INSTALLATION 2.1 LOCATION OF THE CENTRAL PROCES- SOR PACKAGE (CPP) In selecting a location for the Central Processor Package (CPP) equipment cabinet, the following crite- ria should be considered: 1. Avoid locations which are subject to high ambient temperatures, excessive moisture, flooding, exces- sive dust or infestation by insects or small animals.
CENTRAL PROCESSOR PACKAGE INSTALLATION will be found in a document titled "Installation Notes" at the front of the "Customer Data" Section in in Vol- ume 1 of the VR-CM50 Console Service Manual. 2.3.1 CABLE ROUTING 60" CPP cabinets are designed for cable feed from the bottom of the cabinet.
CENTRAL PROCESSOR PACKAGE INSTALLATION 2.4 MOUNTING OF SURGE ARRESTOR BOX- ES AND GROUND BRACKET 2.4.1 PLACEMENT OF SURGE ARRESTOR BOXES The surge arrestor box(es) may be mounted directly on a wall or on a plywood board at a location near the central equipment cabinet. (Be sure the ground lug is on top).
Figure 2-4 STAR GROUNDING CONFIGURATION CENTRAL PROCESSOR PACKAGE INSTALLATION The VR-CM50 uses a STAR GROUNDING SYS- TEM (below) in which each console is individually bonded to a common point at the CPP using a #6 insulated wire.
CENTRAL PROCESSOR PACKAGE INSTALLATION Figure 2-5 COMMON GROUND BRACKET ASSEMBLY 2.6 GROUNDING INSTALLATION #1 Lug Connect a #6 THHN bare ground wire to the TOP RIGHT (first) copper lug on the common ground bracket assembly to all RTL kits (make this by taking a length of the #6 THHN wire and stripping it).
2.7 CPP I/O PANELS CPPs with a capacity of twenty or more cards will have one or more CPP I/O panels as shown in Figure 2-6. If there is more than one I/O panel, each panel is numbered. The I/O panels are hinged to allow easy access to the rear of the card cages.

2.9 WIRING OF SURGE ARRESTOR BOXES Typically, connectors P9 through P13 on the stan- dard I/O panel (connectors P4 through P6 on 14 card cabinets) will be assigned for RTL I/O connectors. 1. Connect the female end of an A600950A, 25 pair cable to the connector in the surge box.
White/Green whether the selected audio is sent to the left or right White/Brown speaker on the console. Refer to the VR-CM50 Con- Brown/White sole Service Manual to adjust them. Refer to Section White/Slate Slate/White 2.6 for grounding information.
Typically, logging recorder audio appears on con- nector P14 on the standard I/O panel (connector P7 on 14 card CPP cabinets). If the CPP is housed in more than one cabinet, a separate logging recorder output will be provided from each cabinet to minimize the need for intercabinet wiring.

2.16 CONNECTION TO AUXILIARY CONTROL FUNCTIONS (14 Card Central Cabinet) The 14 card Central Processor can accommodate only one Auxiliary Control Relay card with a maxi- mum of 16 relays. A somewhat different relay mounting arrangement is used due to space limita- tions.
CENTRAL PROCESSOR PACKAGE INSTALLATION 2.17 PA SYSTEM FEED The CPP can be connected to a building public address to permit paging via the dispatch console(s). The console(s) must be equipped with programming option TDM-OP431 or TDV-OP431 to use this fea- ture.
3.1 INTRODUCTION This section contains the instructions to assem- ble VR-CM50 CABINETRY. If you purchased a complete VR-CM50 system, most electronic compo- nents will be pre-installed in your VR-CM50 cabine- try. 3.2 TOOLS REQUIRED The following tools are needed for mechanical assembly of the TDM-150 Console cabinetry.
CABINETRY ASSEMBLY FOR CRT CONSOLE SYSTEMS 3.4 MAIN CONSOLE ASSEMBLY 4. Remove the front and rear keylocked enclosure pan- els from each bay and set them aside. C A U T I O N Keylocks will scratch keylock enclosure panels if they are stacked or leaned against each other.
Figure 3-4 FORMICA SURFACE ARRANGEMENT Figure 3-5 LEVELING THE CONSOLE 3.6 FORMICA WRITING SURFACE ARRANGE- MENT 1. Locate all writing surface Formica and arrange on the floor in front of console. A typical layout is shown in Figure 3-4. Permanent mounting can be accomplished more easily if the Formica is arranged on the floor directly in line to its mounting position on the console.
CABINETRY ASSEMBLY FOR CRT CONSOLE SYSTEMS Figure 3-6 WRITING SUPPORT RAIL MOUNTING 2. Fasten the writing support rail with three #1/4-20x3/ 4 Keps nuts as shown in Figure 3-6. One support rail must be used on either side of writing surface break as previously marked.
NOTE: Hex extensions or long hex drivers will not pass through the holes. C A U T I O N Use only VR-CM50-provided flakeboard screws to fas- ten the writing surface. Longer screws will protrude through the Formica surface. Figure 3-8 JOINING FORMICA...
If your console configuration has optional equipment, PLEASE CONTINUE. 3.10 CABINETRY OPTIONS VR-CM50 offers the following cabinetry options for your system. Installation instructions begin in the follow sections: 3.10.1 STABILIZER KIT (OPTION 1) Refer to Figure 3-11. For cabinetry consisting of two or more in-line cabinet bays, two (2) stabilizer kits are required - one at each end of the console.
cabinetry consisting of a pie-shape sections along with 2 or more cabinet bays in-line before the turn, one (1) stabilizer kit only is required at the end opposite the pie-shaped section. For assembly purposes, each con- sole that is required to have a stabilizer installed, is identified with a label: Mount Stabilizer Leg Here 1.
CABINETRY ASSEMBLY FOR CRT CONSOLE SYSTEMS 3.10.4 UNIVERSAL PENCIL DRAWER MOUNT- ING (OPTION 4) 1. Remove the pencil drawer from the mounting frame by depressing the black slide retainers. Refer to Fig- ure 3-14. 2. Position the mounting frame in the desired location between the writing support rails - 1 "...
