4. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AI-900 Security System is a voice communication system that permits calls to be quickly and easily made - even in emergency situations - with the touch of single button. The system can record conversations, and features external equipment sync output and operation log output. These features combine to make the AI-900 an ideal system for voice security applications.

5. FEATURES

•Modular construction facilitates installation, maintenance, and system expansion.

•Rack- or wall-mountable exchange.

•Up to 4 master stations (or commercial telephone sets) and 64 substations can be connected per exchange.

•Up to 2 outside telephone (C/O) lines can be connected per exchange.

•Station paging (by means of the substation speaker) and external paging functions.

•External sound source distribution capability.

•Up to 19 paging zones can be established.

•Emergency Paging function.

•By connecting an external recording device, the conversations at the master station (or telephone set) and at the outside line telephone can be recorded.

•Exchange operating log can be transmitted to a PC.

•Tie-line possible for up to 16 exchanges.

•24 V DC input for connection of backup power supply.

•Manual/Automatic Call Forwarding, Conference, Scan Monitor functions.

6. INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

•To prevent the unit's failure, be sure to switch off its power when inserting or removing the card.

•When mounting each card, fully insert it into the Main Frame. After all cards are mounted, secure them with the card fixing bracket.

•When the unit gets dirty with dust or oil, wipe down with a soft, dry cloth. Never use a chemically-treated cleaning cloth or volatile liquids, such as benzine and thinner, because the unit's plastic parts may be deformed or its finish discolored.

•All units except the AI-RS170 and AI-RS180 Substations are designed exclusively for indoor use. Do not install them outdoors.

•The whole system will not operate without power supply.

•In areas where broadcasting stations are close by, the system operation may be affected by radio frequency interference.

•Keep DC wiring at least 30 cm away from AC wiring. Otherwise, the system may malfunction.
