CONFIGURATION 10:

6 ZONES - ONE-WAY PAGING - MIXED HIGH- AND LOW-POWER ZONES -

25/70V AC OR SELF-AMPLIFIED SPEAKERS

High- and Low-Power Mixed System is a non-programmable feature that lets the system designer use a dedicated amplifier or self-amplified speaker per zone and at the same time use a centralized amplifier for zones requiring less than 250 watts of power*.The PCMZPM module to be used as a low-power module must have all three zones with dedicated amplifiers or self-amplified speakers and have its output switch set to Low-Power.The other PCMZPM module will be used as a high-power module and its output switch must be set to High-Power. In this example, three TPU100B amplifiers are used on the second PCMZPM low-power module.

Note: Low-Power Systems do not support two-way paging.

INSTALLATION:

STEP 1: Assembling Modules

Follow the same procedure described previously on page 5, step 1.

Note: Do NOT connect PCMPS2 (power supply) at this point.

STEP 2: Connecting Telephone System Paging Output to the PCMTIM

Refer to paging access modes described previously in Step 2 on pages 5 (paging port/contact closure), 7 (paging port/VOX), 9 (loop start trunk), 11 (ground start trunk), or 13 (station level/Centrex).

STEP 3: Switch and Control Settings

Set the TEL-INT-SEL DIP switches on the PCMTIM module to match the paging output access from the telephone system based on the type of telephone interface used. (See step 3 on page 5 if using Page Port Contact Closure; page 7 for Page Port VOX; page 9 for Loop Start Trunk; page 11 for Ground Start Trunk; or page 13 for Station Level/Centrex.)

Set the SYS ID switches on the PCMCPU module to the OFF position (to the left).

• Set the TALK BACK switches on the PCMZPM module to the OFF position (to the left) for all zones.

Set the LO PWR / HI PWR OUTPUT switch on the first PCMZPM High-Power module to the HI PWR OUTPUT position (down).

Set the LO PWR / HI PWR OUTPUT switch on the second PCMZPM Low-Power module to the LO PWR OUTPUT position (up).

STEP 4: Connecting Amplifiers

• Locate the terminals on the PCMCPU module labeled PA IN/RT and wire it to the TIP and RING (T & R) input on the amplifier.

Locate the terminals on the PCMCPU module labeled PA OUT/RT and wire it to the COMMON and either 25 or 70V AC output on the amplifier.

Locate the terminals on the second PCMZPM module Low-Power module labeled ZONE A and connect the amplifier to the TIP and RING terminals. Follow the same procedure for ZONE B and ZONE C.

STEP 5: Connecting 25/70V AC Speakers

Follow the same procedure described previously on page 5, step 6.

STEP 6: Testing Your System

Connect the power supply PCMPS2 to the PCMCPU module to either the power jack 12V DC input or wire it to the 12V DC screw terminals observing polarity.

Connect the Bogen amplifiers to the AC power outlet (120 V AC 60Hz).

Set the volume on your Bogen amplifiers to a 1/2 turn.

Access the Paging from the telephone system and listen (on the handset) for the confirmation tone (double beep).

Dial 01 to access ZONE ONE and listen (on the handset and also to the speakers) for a pre-announce tone (single beep) followed by your page (audio).

Follow the same steps for ZONES TWO (02) through SIX (06).

Set the Bogen amplifiers to the desired volume level.

* Older PCM systems only have a 150W capacity.
