Note: The optional audio source can be a CD or tape player, AM, FM, or commercial radio, or other audio device.
  • Page 3 If more than one AmpliCenter is used in the paging system, each one can be connected to the same music source, or different audio device, if desired. Figure 3.

    8. Set the Zone Option switches on the Controller and Zone Expansion Units, if any. Note: For each zone used, no matter what its function, this switch needs to be set to one of three set- tings for proper zone operation. The Controller has eight switches for zones 1-8.
  • Page 8 INPUT CONTACT CLOSURE Figure 15. Contact Closure Zone Wiring to Controller 3. Test speaker wiring for short circuits. Measure the resistance of each home run wiring with an ohmmeter. Any pair indicating a value of less than 15 Ohms must be rechecked for possible shorted wiring or speakers. Correct any problems and retest.
  • Page 9 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.

  • Page 13: Programming The Controller

    PROGRAMMING THE CONTROLLER The Controller is programmed to enable each zone to have different zone features, if required. There are two ways to do the programming. One is via the RS-232 serial port on the Controller which is connected to an IBM compatible (DOS) PC using the optional programming software. An advantage of using a PC to configure the Controller is that screens can be viewed on the monitor to aid in selecting the zones for various options.
  • Page 14 2 0 DEFINE LENGTH OF ALIAS NUMBERS This system option allows you to set the length (3 or 4 digits) of the ALIAS number field. The default is 2 digits. If you wish to assign ALIAS numbers to the paging zones, you must set the length parameter. The ALIAS number is the dialing extension for the zone.
  • Page 15 Hear TRIPLE beeps. 3. To verify the condition (OFF/ON) of the Dial Tone Detect option, dial 2 5 and repeat step 2 above. 3 0 SET CONNECT PASSWORD This feature will not become active until the first time you enter a password, via the programming mode. The factory default is NO password.
  • Page 16 Hear TRIPLE beeps. 3. To verify that the new Programming password has been established, dial 3 3 and repeat step 2 above. Forgot the Password? If either or both the connect password and programming password are forgot- ten, it will be necessary to call the Help line (refer to page ii) for instructions how to erase the two pass- words and be able to enter new ones.
  • Page 17 5 0 SET VOX DISCONNECT TIMING The system will hang up on a page if no audio is detected for the programmed amount of time. The default time is 30 seconds, but can be varied from 10 seconds to 60 seconds, in 10 second increments, or can be disabled completely.
  • Page 18 5 4 SELECT INPUT TO COMPUTER MONITOR This option turns ON or OFF the inputs of Attendant Access, Telephone Access, and Night Bell to be recorded and displayed by the Computer Monitor if you have activated it in Step 10. Default is OFF for all three.
  • Page 19 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 20 Digit string length for an ALIAS code can be 3 or 4 digits, but all ALIAS codes must have the same num- ∗ ber of digits. (Refer to Step 3) The and # digits are not applicable digits for zone ALIAS numbers. Note: If ALIAS numbers are enabled, you MUST use them for programming from now on.
  • Page 21 SET INPUT PRIORITY ARRANGEMENT The input priorities are pre-set at the factory. You may only assign a priority level to inputs such as door- bell or security alarm, by assigning them to Input #1 or Input #2, which differ in priority. Note: These priorities cannot be rearranged.
  • Page 22 6 6 SET ZONE OR GROUP ZONE TO REMOTE MONITOR This option selects a zone or group zone for computer monitoring, (logging of paging activity), or for visual message display. The default setting is off (Refer to Step 10). 1. Dial 6 6 to select this option. Hear a DOUBLE beep.

  • Page 25 9 0 PASS DTMF TO THE OUTPUT This zone output option enables the Touchtone telephone keypad tones (DTMF) to be passed through the Controller and output to a second controller or other auxiliary device. The choice is YES/NO, with the default being NO. Operating the unit in the default mode, you may switch from zone to zone (within the same Controller) without hanging up, simply by dialing the zone number of the zone you wish to switch to.

    The Ground Start mode is a two wire interface and has a 600 Ohm input impedance. When a trunk is accessed, a momentary ground is sent to the ring-side of the pair by the host equipment, loop current is detected and the tip-side of the pair is closed. Disconnect supervision of the ground start mode is accomplished by monitoring the loop current.
