SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Personnel properly qualified in the application and use of life safety equipment (“qualified personnel”) shall
read this manual carefully before performing any actions to specify, apply, install, maintain and perform
operational tests of IED systems, and associated products in accordance with the instructions in this
manual. This manual shall be made available to all qualified personnel who operate, test, maintain, or
service IED systems, and associated products. It is strongly recommend that such personnel read and
understand the entire manual.
WARNING: IF SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, INSTALLATION AND TESTING ARE NOT PERFORMED PROPERLY, CONDITIONS COULD EXIST IN WHICH THE IED SYSTEM MAY NOT OPERATE, OR MAY OPERATE IMPROPERLY. THIS COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.
AVERTISSEMENT: SI LES MESURES DE SECURITE, L’INSTALLATION ET LES ESSAIS NE SONT PAS
EFFECTUES CORRECTEMENT, CELA POURRAIT EMPECHER LE SYSTÈME IED DE FONCTIONNER,
OU DE FONCTIONNER CORRECTEMENT. CELA POURRAIT PROVOQUER DES DEGATS MATERIELS
ET DES BLESSURES GRAVES, OU LA MORT POUR LES AUTRES ET/OU VOUS-MEMES.
It is very important that only responsible, trained personnel are allowed to operate and maintain these
systems, and that they use only appropriate equipment and tools. If a person is not trained, they shall
contact the IED factory for direction on how to operate and maintain an IED system.
Unauthorized personnel and equipment must be restricted from the areas of operation.
All operations should be performed carefully, methodically, and without hurrying. Greater effectiveness will
be developed by increased familiarity of personnel with their assignments. During any maintenance
operation, if a malfunction occurs or an incorrect indication appears, stop the operation and determine
whether or not it is safe to proceed. Before performing any step in a procedure, be sure that the preceding
step has been properly executed and correct results obtained. Cleanliness and good housekeeping in all
installation areas are major factors in effective accident prevention. Tools and equipment should be
maintained in good working order and should always be returned to their proper storage place after usage.
Cleaning agents and other cleaning aids should be removed from the equipment areas immediately upon
completing the task at hand.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Changes, modifications, or additions in connection with the IED system equipment shall not be made without
explicit authorization of IED.
Safety devices found on mechanical, and electrical and electronic equipment are put there for the protection
of personnel and equipment. These devices must be maintained in good working order and operative at all
times. Safety devices shall never be removed or bypassed unless specifically authorized by the IED factory.
Where safety devices have been rendered inoperable by proper and specific authorization, adequate notices
shall be posted to warn personnel of the potential hazard.
Avoid the use of flammable or toxic cleaning fluids, and the use of carbon tetrachloride is prohibited.
Maintenance of the equipment shall be at least what is specified in the IED manuals and literature, and
performed only by qualified personnel.
Whenever operation and maintenance is ongoing, personnel in the equipment areas shall have an effective
communication among these areas in order to protect people if any accident occurs.
PRELIMINARY PRECAUTIONS
Precautions which are applicable to general electrical or electronic maintenance are as follows:
a. Check yourself. Wear no article that might catch on equipment or that might act as a conductor.
b. Check the working area. The equipment area shall be clean and dry. If possible, stand on a
special insulator such as a rubber mat. There should be ample working space and good lighting.
c. Check the tools. Always use proper tools and check them for their safe condition. Use
screwdrivers with plastic handles. Check test equipment periodically and examine test leads
carefully as the slightest break in insulation is dangerous.
d. Check the procedures. Study the entire procedure before taking the first step. Consult the circuit
diagram frequently to obtain an understanding of what is accomplished at each step. Know what is
in the equipment and how it differs from others on which you have worked.
e. Be aware that high voltages may be present across terminals that are normally low voltage, due to
equipment breakdown. Be careful when measuring low voltages in equipment containing high
voltage circuits.
f. Do not make resistance measurements with power on.
g. Do not work within the equipment without the presence of a person who is capable of rendering
aid, and who is familiar with the procedure for emergency shutdown of the equipment.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN MEASURING HIGH VOLTAGE POTENTIALS
Observe the following precautions when measurements must be performed on circuits with potentials over
48 volts.
a. Do not measure potentials over 48 volts without the presence or assistance of a person who is
capable of rendering aid, and who is familiar with the procedure for emergency shutdown of the
equipment.
b. Be sure you are not grounded when you are adjusting equipment or using measuring equipment.
Stand on a rubber mat or other insulator if possible. Be sure the equipment area is clean and dry. In
general, use only one hand when servicing live equipment.
c. If a test meter must be held or adjusted while voltage is applied, ground the case of the meter before
starting a measurement. Do not touch the live equipment or personnel working on live equipment
while holding the meter. The “common” terminal on some A/C electronic voltmeters is at ground potential; never connect the “common” terminal to any point above ground potential.
d. High-voltage, high-capacitance capacitors should be discharged before servicing is started.
WARNING! Discharging must be done carefully and judiciously. First ascertain whether there is
a built-in bleeder network. If so, wait a minute or two for the capacitor to discharge through the
network. Otherwise, use an external discharge network. This is most important in the case of
high voltage or high capacitance capacitors. If one terminal is connected to ground, connect the
discharge network between the other terminal and ground. If neither terminal of the capacitor is
grounded, connect the network across the capacitor terminals. Connecting a short circuit
across the terminals is not recommended. Doing so can produce extremely high currents and a
flash which can injure the eyes, vaporize metals, and cause burns.
AVERTISSEMENT: La décharge doit être faite soigneusement et judicieusement. Vérifier d’abord
si il y a un réseau de purgeur incorporé. Si c’est le cas, attendez une minute ou deux pour que
le condensateur se décharge par le réseau. Sinon, utilisez un réseau de décharge externe. Ceci
est très important en cas de haute tension ou des condensateurs à haute capacité. Si un
terminal est. relié à la terre, connecter le réseau de décharge entre l’autre terminal et la terre. Si
aucun terminal de condensateur est fondé, relier le réseau au terminal du condensateur. La
connexion d’un court-circuit entre les terminaux n’est pas recommandée. Cela peut créé des
courants très élevés où des étincelles pourrait blesser les yeux, fondre les métaux et causer des
brûlures.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING ON ENERGIZED EQUIPMENT
When it is necessary to work on energized equipment, think ahead and anticipate every hazard. Never work
alone on energized equipment.
Interlock switches are installed on some of the doors and panels to break the power circuits when the
enclosure is entered. When it is necessary to work within such an enclosure on energized equipment, the
interlock may be bypassed. Extreme caution should then be exercised, as dangerous voltages are present
within the unit.
AC POWER CIRCUITS
Equipment obtaining power from a secondary distribution system should be grounded at all times by means
of a third grounding wire on the power lines. Equipment permanently wired to a secondary distribution
system should also be grounded separately by connection to a grounding bus or ground rod with a
sufficiently large conductor to handle the current expected if the secondary source is accidentally shorted to
the equipment.
The ground wire should be protected from mechanical damage and periodically inspected for good physical
condition.
Personnel should never depend on a switch to remove power from equipment. If the equipment is connected
to the secondary distribution system by means of a power cable, detach the cable from the receptacle
before attempting any repairs of removal of chassis.
If the equipment is permanently wired to the secondary distribution system, remove the main fuses or open
the power switch. Attach a suitable warning tag to the switch which will warn personnel not to operate the
equipment; only the person who originally attaches the warning tag should be authorized to remove it.
RESUSCITATION
Personnel working with or near high voltage should be familiar with modern methods of resuscitation. Such
information and training is available from the Red Cross or local emergency response personnel such as the
police and fire departments.
The IP100 family of products is an integrated control system containing a micro-controller with integrated
storage media, data network interface, auxiliary analog audio inputs, logic input ports and relay outputs. The
system functions performed by the unit are determined by the software configuration provided with the unit.
The IP108 and IP116 models include a CobraNet digital audio network interface. In addition, other models
may be available that are denoted by suffixes such as IP100-x or IP100-xx. The models available in the
IP100 family are as follows:
IP100 The base level model that handles only IEDnet+ audio devices
such as IP Speakers.
IP108 The same base as the IP100, with the addition of an 8-channel
CobraNet digital audio network interface.
IP116 The same base as the IP100, with the addition of a 16-channel
CobraNet digital audio network interface.
IP108-DThe same base as the IP100, with the addition of an 8-channel
Dante digital audio network interface.
IP116-DThe same base as the IP100, with the addition of a 16-channel
Dante digital audio network interface.
Other related part numbers are actually “sales kits” that include special features such as education-related
pre-configuration in the -EDU versions and included technical support in -CS versions. However, the
underlying hardware in each of these cases is one of the above listed options.

Eight (8) dry contact relay outputs are provided to send signals from the IP100 to other systems
such as fire alarm panels, building management systems, security systems, etc. Each relay is
programmed in the system software. Relays can be programmed to act as zones and trip each
time an announcement or message is active for that zone. Relays can also be used to provide a
closure when there is a fault condition present in the system.
12. Auxiliary Audio Inputs
These connectors are used to bring in up to two channels of line level analog audio which may be
used for such things as background music (BGM) or audio to accompany a logic closure.
Unpack the unit from its shipping carton and identify any accompanying components that may have been
included. The unit comes with built-in rack ears for easy mounting into a 19" rack.
Two types of external 12VDC power supplies are available. The IED1112PSD is an in-line power supply
module that provides power to the unit for situations that do not require power supply redundancy. The
IED1112PS is a rack-mount power supply unit with optional redundant power supply modules to provide
uninterrupted power to the unit should a supply fail.
If the unit will be used with the IED1112PS, locate the adaptor cable that will be used to connect the two
units. If the installation will use the IED1112PSD in-line power supply, then ocate this unit and prepare it for
installation as shown later in this manual.
INSTALL UNIT INTO A RACK
The IP100 requires one rack unit (1 RU) of available space and a recommended mounting depth of 12” to
allow adequate clearance for cabling. Select a location in the 19” rack for the unit based on proximity to the
rack mounted 12V power supply system, and (if desired) keyboard and monitor or a KVM
(keyboard/video/mouse) switch unit. Mount the unit using suitable screws for the rack being used, two per
rack mount ear. Please refer to any safety and installation instructions that came with the rack prior to
assembly.
OPTIONAL – CONNECT KEYBOARD, MOUSE AND MONITOR
The unit can be operated as a black box with only network connection, but if desired may be connected to
keyboard, mouse and monitor either directly or via a KVM switch shared with other devices in the rack.
Figure8: Connecting Keyboard, Mouse and Monitor
Connect the keyboard and mouse to two of the available USB ports on the back of the unit. Connect the
monitor to either the VGA output (15-pin D shell connector) or the HDMI output on the back as appropriate
for the type of monitor being used.
Note: A monitor (VGA or HDMI) or video switcher must be connected when the unit is powered up or
rebooted, or else the display driver will not be initialized and connecting a monitor to the unit later will not
show any video.
IED GLOBALCOM IP100/IP108/IP116 Installation Instruction Doc: 1240B Ver 1.3 1/16/2018
CONNECT NETWORK CABLES
The IP100 unit has one Ethernet port and the IP108/IP116 units have three Ethernet ports located on the
rear of the unit. At a minimum the control port and if provided, one of the two digital audio ports must be
connected for proper operation. One is used for control and data while the other is dedicated strictly for
digital audio. Connect the data and primary CobraNet ports to available Ethernet switch ports using a
suitable Cat-5e or Cat-6 jumper cable. The switch ports should be configured for auto-negotiation 10/100 or
10/100/1000.
Figure 9: Connecting Network Cables
CONNECT LOGIC AND RELAY I/O
The IP100 provides eight (8) logic sensor inputs that can be used to trigger announcements, indicate a fault
with external equipment or mute the system, for example. Also there are eight (8) dry contact outputs which
can provide control to external systems or indicate a system status, for example. As required for the
application, attach logic input lines and relay output lines to the terminal blocks provided, as shown in Figure
10.
Figure 10: Connecting Logic and Relay Lines
Each logic input is isolated and terminations are made by connecting the signal to the + terminal while using
the – terminal for the return path to the signaling device. Pins 5 and 10 on each connector provide a
reference to chassis ground. Refer to Figure 11 for details on the logic and relay terminals.

CONNECT AUXILIARY AUDIO INPUTS
There are two analog audio inputs available on the rear of the IP100, which may be connected for
background music or audio to use in a page action, such as from a logic input closure. One makes
connections to these inputs as shown in Figures 12. Note, these inputs are balanced. If connecting
unbalanced audio to these inputs, it may be done as shown in Figure 13.
For 230VAC Mains
applications, the ferrite
filter included with the unit
must be installed near the
connector in the vicinity
marked here.
IED GLOBALCOM IP100/IP108/IP116 Installation Instruction Doc: 1240B Ver 1.3 1/16/2018
CONNECT POWER PLUG
Connect the cable from the IED1112PSD in-line 12V power supply or the IED1112PS rack mount 12V
power supply system to the power connection on the back of the unit. If main power is present, the unit will
immediately boot up. The fan will run and the LCD display on the front panel will illuminate.
Figure 14: Connect 12V Power Plug
When the unit’s power supply is connected to a 230VAC mains line, to avoid excessive EMI from the unit,
the ferrite filter should be installed on the power inlet within a few inches of the connector. This ferrite can
be installed in 120VACS mains applications as well, if desired, with no harmful effects. The ferrite filter
simply clamps over the wire as shown in the figure below. (The reason the ferrite is not pre-installed is that
there is more than one power supply option that can be ordered and used.)
