The dmc1 supports the 3-note Model MC3 and 8-note Model MC8 chime modules. The chime module installs inside the wall housing and is activated by the Door Station pushbutton.

1.Install the chime module circuit board by snapping it onto the four plastic mounting standoffs in the wall housing. See Figure 13.

Master Station Pre-installation

To aid wiring of the Master Station unit to the cables from the wall housing, the Master Station unit contains a wire to hang the Master Station from the wall housing.

1.

Suspend the Master Station unit from the wall housing by

 

looping the third hand wire (the thick green wire) into the

 

hook at the top of the wall housing (see Figure 14).

2.

If a chime module was installed, plug the chime module’s connector

 

into the CHIME connector on the dmc1 circuit board (see Figure 15).

1.Refer to the room number identifi cation printed next to each connector socket on the circuit board (see Figure 16). The connector room number 1-9 identifi cation matches the station selector switches 1-9. Stations 5, 6, 7, 8, and

9 each have two sockets for connection for two Room Stations that will share the same station selector switch.

2.Insert each Cat-5 Room Station and music speaker quick connector into the appropriate connector socket.

3.Write or label the names of the station locations in the numbered areas provided inside the dmc1 front access door.
