PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

Is this a COLOR Video installation?

This manual is written expressly for the QwikBus™ 2-wire Color systems that will be using the Inside monitors listed on the previous page. If you are installing a Black and White system, please refer to the QwikBus™ 4-wire Black & White Manual.

How many apartments?

QwikBus™ can run up to 120 apartments and can exceed that number if specially designed. If you will be installing a larger system please contact Alpha Communications® for assistance.

How many apartments will need more than 1 monitor?

An apartment can have up to 4 monitors and or audio stations that will ring when the entry button is pressed. A fifth can be added a custom TT33-8P as opposed to the standard TT33-3.

Will these multiple monitor apartments need intercommunication?

Intercommunication is only available using the VFS1500/ FS1500 series stations which allow you to ring 2-4 other stations in the apartment depending on the equipment used.

How many Entrances?

Typically,QwikBus™canhaveupto8Entrance panels. If you will be installing a larger number of entrances please contact Alpha Communications® for design assistance.

Modular Panel?

STR™ modular panels are available in White, Titanium, and Dark Brown and areusually used in small installations from a 1 button residential application up to multi-apartment configurations and feature beautiful contemporary looks, illuminated buttons, and outside weather resistance.

Stainless Steel or Brass Panel?

Alpha Communications® can custom design and build flush and surface mount entry panels in Stainless Steel or Polished Brass with all necessary apartment button numbering and address engraving.

How many observation cameras will be in the system?

Additional Cameras can be added in addition to the Entrance Cameras for a total of 8, enabling the apartment monitors to view the various feeds on demand.

What type of Inside stations will you use?

Although all the compatible stations connect the same way, each model does have certain capabilities and advantages depending on the needs of the tenant and can be exchanged for another unit at anytime if necessary by simply installing the2wiresand reprogramming the system to recognize the unit.

Page 5

Are you running new wire or using existing wire from a previous system?

Although digital systems are fairly forgiving in wiring requirements, they are still susceptible to RFI from unusually strong nearby transmitters, EMI from electrical lines running nearby, or existing wiring that is not twisted, in poor condition, or not a suitable gauge. Please refer to the wiring thickness chart below to determine the minimum recommended wire gauge needed. If the existing wiring is more than 12 years old, has deteriorating insulation, questionable splice connections, corrosion, or is not configured as twisted pair wiring, it is highly recommended that new wire be run.

To reduce the risk of interference problems:



lwaysuseasingle twisted pairwire forthe two wire BUS line.

 Do NOT double wires to increase effective wire diameter. This will cause interference

problems.

 Do NOT install anyunused additional wires with open ends.  Neverconnect the shield from a cable, orconnect the shield from one cable to another.  Use a separate cable to the door strike from the SP333.  Onlyuse a 12VAC door strike or12VAC relaywith less than 1 amp draw.  If it is absolutelynecessaryto run the door strike wiringin the same cable as the BUS

line, you must use a transient voltage suppressor at the door strike end.

 Loop resistance should be less than 20 ohms.

Twisted pair is always recommended.

Cat5, Cat5E, Cat6, and the new Cat7 spec. wire is NOT recommended.

How many risers will you be using?

The recommended maximum number of monitors on a riser is 8-10 with each riser originating from the VSP333-3 Control Unit, including from the EVB333 Amplified Splitter(s) if your system requires them.

System Notes – 2 wire COLOR: Important Information on Monitor Riser Connections

This section discusses the proper procedure for connecting monitors on a riser. Although a digital system is very forgiving, it is best to follow these rules during installation to maximize performance and minimize potential problems.

Using existing wiring:

When using existing wiring there are many things that can cause problems. The first is

of course, wiring condition and gauge. Solid or stranded does not matter but a minimum of 18 gauge twisted shielded wire with the shield NOT connected together is strongly recommended. Using any lighter gauge may result in loss of performance and/or introduction of interference from outside power sources.

Many installers run the cable the easiest way and this, unfortunately, is usually by

running the wire in a conduit or small enclosure right along side AC power lines, near fluorescent ballasts, or machinery. It is therefore suggested that you run your own wiring for this job in the recommended way, and avoid wiring with unknown potential issues. If this is not possible, it is best to advise the customer that the system may notworkuptoits full potential especially with regard to video display.

Proper BUS Connections to the Monitors:

Although the polarity of the BUS connections on a monitor on a line is not important, it

is good form to reverse the connections from monitor to monitor on a BUS line to prevent the propagation of signal distortion by putting them “out of phase” with each other. On the picture below, note how the monitors are “reverse connected” as they go up a riser.

Page 11

All Monitor BUS lines must be terminated with an End of Line resistor on the last

monitor in the run. This is built into each monitor and can be installed by putting a jumper connector on J1

terminated properly, the electronic characteristics of the line will change resulting in signal degradation and poor video quality.

Using EVB33 Distribution Units with BUS risers:

Always try to avoid branching or “T-Tapping” to connect monitors from a riser as this

will cause changes in the riser electronic characteristics which may cause signal degradation and poor video quality. However, when it is necessary to “T-Tap” a line from a BUS line, there are two important things to remember.

1. Use an EVB33 for each “T-Tap” to help minimize issues with signal propagation. This can be done in an “in-line” method alternating polarity of the monitors, (maximum of 6 monitors or 8-10 monitors on the total riser) or in a “star” pattern with up to three monitors on their own “sub” risers.

2.AlwaysusetheEndofLinejumper at the physical end of a riser line.

Both of these items are illustrated below.

Dipswitch Settings – Entries & Door Strikes

The QwikBus™ system uses dipswitches for identification of Entry stations, additional cameras, and to enter “Programming Mode”.

Entrance Panels must have a unique code so the system knows where the call is coming from and which door to open. Dipswitches 4, 5, & 6 on the back of the Speaker/Microphone Unit (TSMB3 (Modular style) or TT33-3 (Custom style)) assign this code as shown in the chart below.

When a Door Strike is used, It can be connected locally to the TSMB3 (Modular style panels) or TT33-3 (Custom style Panels) Tö terminals, or connected to the SP333 Controller at the Tö1, Tö2, Tö3, or Tö4 terminals (number is related to the entry number). You must let the system know which connection you will use by the position of the #3 dipswitch for each entry. Dipswitch #3 = OFF (SP333)orON(TSMB3 or TT33-3). The entries DO NOT have to be set alike.

TSMB3 Dipswitch Location TT33-3 Dipswitch Location

Page 13

Entrance Panel Cameras

When using a Modular system, The Modular Camera (KMBC3*) is automatically identified by being connected directly to the TT33-3 and takes the same Entrance number (1-8) of the TT33-3.

When using a Custom Panel with a TT33-3 Speaker/Microphone/Controller, You can use either a pinhole or CCTV type analog camera with it’s own power supply for system video input. This camera will connect by coax to the KBS3-2 which is automatically identified by being connected directly to the TT33-3 and takes the same Entrance number (1-8) of the

TT33-3 using dipswitches 4, 5 and 6.

Using analog cameras as add on observation cameras to the system.

You can add CCTV type cameras to the system that are not related to an entrance

panel to allow for observation of other areas using the KBS3-2.

As an example you could have 2 entries to the building using Camera #1 & #2, and use 3 observation cameras set as camera #3, #4, & #5. When a visitor rings from Entrance #1, camera #1 will come on the monitor to display the visitor, but the resident can also cycle

through all five cameras by pressing the button.

When using any other camera(s) the KBS3-2 module must be used. This module has two functions:

1. Converts the analog camera video signal to a digital signal that is used bythe QwikBus™ system. The analog signal is fed into this module from any pinhole or CCTV type camera by a standard RG59 or RG6 coax and sends the converted to digital signal out through the BUS connections to the system.

2. Establishes a Camera numberforidentification. If this camera is addressed as # 2 fo example, This KBS3-2 would be set to #2 using the dipswitches 4,5,&6 (7 is not used). The 8 combinations are shown below.

NOTE: When using a Coaxial cable into a KBS3-2, ALWAYS connect a 75Ω (for RG-59) or 50 Ω (for RG-6) End-of-Line resistor between the coax center lead terminal and the (

terminal on the KBS3-2. Failure to do this may cause degradation of the video signal.

BUS End-of-Line Resistors – Jumper Locations

For proper system operation, the last video monitor on a BUS riser as well as the last camera on a run must have an End-of-Line Resistors.

These resistors are built in to the printed circuit boards and can be connected by installing the jumper on the two pins labeled

J1*.

Usually these jumpers are supplied on all the monitors and camera boards and must be removed if the unit is not the last camera or monitor connected to the BUS line.

If there is only one camera used or one monitor used, the End-of-Line resistors must still be used.

The Chart to the left shows the locations of

the J1*pins on the different circuit boards.

NOTE: Do not confuse this End-of-Line Resistor with the End-of Line resistor required at the end of a coax cable entering the KBS3-2. See page 9 for more information.

* NOTE: End of line resistor (J1) may be labeled "Abschluss Widerstand" instead!

The Matrix – Wiring Pushbuttons to the TT33-3

When using an STR™ Modular Button assembly, the system can read which switch is being pressed by electronics built into the switches.

In the case of a Custom Panel, these electronics are built into the TT33-3 and you must run wires to assign each button to a position in a matrix.

The chart to the left shows an example of how a 15 button panel could be connected using combinations of letters and numbers to give each button a unique identification in the electronic matrix.

As long as each button is connected to a unique combination of one letter and one number then the system will be able to assign addresses to each button.

Using the matrix on the TT33-3 module, you can get 4x6 (24) unique combinations. One of these combinations (DL) can be used for special functions, so you can have up to a total of 23 or 24 apartments using the TT33-3 alone. If your system has more apartments you may add the following parts (one for each entry) which will extend the matrix by giving you more numeric connections. Please refer to the chart below.

The IC2 Database Chip

The QwikBus™ system has 8 pin nonvolatile IC chips located on the back of each TSMB3 Speaker Microphone Module (in the Modular style Entry Panels) or TT33-3 Speaker Microphone Module (in the Custom style Entry Panels). Each unit has this chip which maintains the programming for that specific entry.

If you have to replace a TSMB3 or TT33-3 unit, you can remove the IC2 from the old unit and install it into the new unit so you do not have to reprogram that entrance. When doing this replacement, be sure to install it in the correct polarity indicated by the mark on the chip.
