COMPONENTS & WIRING (Cont.)

WIRING & INSTALLATION:
Before Installation:

· Make sure you have the proper power supply(ies) and all necessary and compatible equipment for the system.

· Background music is optional and requires additional equipment. See notes below.

· Lay out your system in advance, assigning station numbers for all sub station locations.

· Surge protection for the intercom equipment is strongly recommended. Add SA-1 surge arrestors for the power
supply, plus one per two wires connected to the master station.

Wire:

· Shielded wire is strongly recommended. Use the proper gauge for the distance being run.

Wiring Method:

· Run intercom cables at least 20" away from all AC wiring, fluorescent lights, dimmer switches, and other
electrical or electronic devices. Wiring can cross AC wires at 90 degrees.

· Sub stations may be homerun to the master station, or daisy-chained. If daisy-chained, include one
common wires plus one individual wire per station on the run.

· If more than one master is used, homerun sub to the NEW-5 Dual Master Adaptors, then wire NEW-5's to each master.

Intercom Locations:

· Do not install intercoms near dimmer or light switches, or other electrical wall devices.

· To prevent feedback, do not place sub stations back-to-back on a common wall.

Mounting the Master & Add-On Units:

· Each master and add-on requires three rack console spaces.

· Secure the masters and add-on stations using the included screws. See information provided with your rack console for
more detailed information.

Mounting the terminal board:

· Make sure that the appropriate terminal board assembly is used for the master and add-on selector(s). Master and
add-on mother terminal boards mounted on terminal board assembly are different and are NOT interchangeable.

· Secure the terminal board inside the rack console using the supplied screws

· Terminal board must be mounted within 5' of the master and add-on units, connected with ribbon cables.
