KEEP MASTER,
VOLUME/REMOTE CONTROLS AT LEAST 18
INCHES FROM FLUORESCENT LIGHT FIXTURES,

This includes AC wiring, security cable, and other
control wires. These can cause a "hum" or "buzzing"
sound in the intercom.
Keep cables away from objects such as heating and
air conditioning ducts, metal construction plates, and
anything else with sharp edges that can damage the
cables.
Outside cable runs should be underground through
PVC conduit. This cable is not weatherproof,
therefore, it must be protected.
If extra cables are run for possible future speaker
additions, care must be taken that these cables do
not get connected to the master unit. Unterminated
cables (no station) connected to the master unit will
cause electronic feedback that will damage the
master unit.
