Coverage, 9922A Talkback Speaker Selection Units

A standard Valcom talkback paging system is made up of three basic components:

1.A talkback page control unit.

2.Speakers (45 Ohm)

3.A power supply.

Although the "B" series 45 Ohm Talkback Interior Speakers with LED can be used with all Valcom Talkback Control Units, consult Valcom's VSP Handsfree Talkback Paging (947100) for detailed information on selecting the control unit and power supply.

NOTE: Only the Valcom V-1109RTHF and V- 9921HF provide provisions for activating the LED.

Coverage

The distance you can be away from a speaker and still have good talkback depends on the type of speaker and the ambient noise level. In a typical office environment, a wall speaker (V-1062B, V- 1064B, V-1066B) will cover approximately 600 square feet (talkback from 25') and a ceiling speaker (V-1060B) will cover approximately 250 square feet when mounted 8' from the floor (talkback from 10'). Ceiling speaker coverage is dependent on ceiling height; the greater the ceiling height, the larger the area covered.

IMPORTANT

NOTE: Do not split pairs to speakers.

•Do not use talkback in noisy areas (80dB or greater).

V-9922A Talkback Speaker Selection Units

Valcom recommends that the total number of speakers per talkback zone be limited to two talkback and forty one-way self-amplified speakers. The reasoning behind this recommendation is simple. Whenever a page is made into a talkback zone, the paging party will hear audio from all of the talkback speakers in that zone. If a zone contains more than two talkback speakers, the talkback audio from the "extra" speakers will impede the quality of the talkback audio from the desired speaker. Additionally, there are limits to the number of talkback speakers that a page control will actually drive.

Ideally, if a page were made into a talkback zone, all of the speakers would simply act like "one-way" speakers except for the one that is closest to the paged person. Talkback capability can be provided by utilizing a V-9922A Talkback Speaker Selection Unit for each talkback speaker. (A V-9928 Wall Mount 5 Watt Amplifier is also required for every six

(6) talkback speakers).

When a page is made, all speakers provide one-way

The speaker is no better than your ears. If you cannot carry on a conversation at normal voice levels over the required talkback distance, then the talkback page equipment will not function satisfactorily.

Use common sense when mounting a talkback speaker. The speaker should be as close as possible to the area where talkback is desired. It should not be mounted close to, or pointed at, noise producing equipment such as fans, air

conditioners, machinery, or compressors.

Limitations

•Two talkback speakers maximum per zone unless V-9922A talkback speaker selection units are used. Refer to the next section for details.

•Two talkback plus 40 one-way amplified speakers maximum per zone when mixing talkback and one-way paging.

•800 feet maximum cable length to speaker from page control.

announcement. In order to respond, the paged party activates the closest speaker with a press of the push-button of that speakers associated talkback speaker selection unit. This activates the chosen speaker as a talkback speaker and resets any previously selected speaker. Contact Valcom Technical Support at (540) 427-3900 for additional information.
