2 Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Code Blue InterAct 500 series analog speakerphone(s), intercom(s)
and paging device(s) for indoor and outdoor applications. These speakerphones are part of our
Emergency Signaling group of products that are built to meet the latest regulations, withstand the
harshest elements and be proactive solutions for when you need them most. The InterAct 500
series phones meet the need for a cost effective, highly reliable product for multi-level parking
decks, stairwells, hallways and building entrances.

Note: Only recommended for use on Bell POTS lines or dial tone provided by ToolVox®; locations with
private PBX head end phone systems should explore the rest of Code Blue’s speakerphone options.

The InterAct 500 is a series of line powered speakerphones – IA500-d, IA500-s, IA501-d and

IA501-d – featuring piezoelectric touch sensitive buttons, a waterproof speaker and microphone,

and one latching type auxiliary relay output. The units include remote programming, call in
monitoring for Areas of Rescue functionality and live audio setup programming.

These line-powered phones feature single or dual solid-state button activation, two high intensity

LED indicators, a cast metal bezel assembly and stainless steel housings for surface or ush mount

applications.

The InterAct 500 series has conformal-coated electronics to support both indoor and outdoor
installations. Each model includes a built-in contact closure that may be used to activate a strobe or
camera or can be used for door access applications.

The two-piece housing on the surface mount models allows the back plate to be mounted and pre­wired during the rough-in phase and the faceplate/electronics assembly set in place near the end of

the project. The ush mount version includes the ush mounting box and has an oversized faceplate

to eliminate additional trim work.

Accessories include blue beacon lighting, remote mount strobes, identication signage and curb

mount pedestals to support a wide range of installations.

This guide provides basic and advanced programming information for obtaining the best
performance with the InterAct 500 speakerphone.

3 Getting Started

1. The analog phone line will terminate on the barrier strip at Tip and Ring positions.

a. Talk voltage: 24~48
b. Loop Current Range: 27~50mA

2. Relay: The phone has one relay that can be a straight contact closure or supply low

current through the relay to power a remote strobe.

a. Spec Rating: 1A @ 220V DC or 250V AC (EA2-3TNU.1)

The IA500 series phones are remotely programmed. This enables the installer or end user to pro­gram the unit from a phone on site or from a remote location.

3.1 Construction

IA500

Surface Mount

The IA500 housing shall be constructed of 16 gauge stainless steel and measure 7.375” W x 7.125”
H x 2” D and weigh approximately 5 lbs. The housing shall consist of two pieces, permitting the
backplate to be mounted during the rough in and the faceplate installed during completion. The back
shall have four holes for mounting hardware.

Flush Mount

The IA501 faceplate shall be constructed of 12 gauge stainless steel and the ush mounting box of

14 gauge painted steel. It shall measure 9” H x 9” W x 3.5” D and weigh approximately 9 lbs. The
faceplate shall provide an overlap to the mounting box to eliminate additional trim work.

5 Installation

The IA500 Series comes in surface and ush mount options. The surface mount allows the

mounting bracket to be installed during rough in and the faceplate with electronics during

completion. The faceplate on the ush mount is ve inches square and provides an overlap to the

mounting box to eliminate additional trim work.

• To install the IA500, rst remove the two retaining screws
(Allen wrench provided), from each side of the case.

• Remove the rear mounting plate by sliding it downward.

• Using the mounting plate as your guide on the wall, mark
the mounting hole and conduit hole locations on the wall.

• Remove the rear mounting plate and create the required
holes, along with any conduit you choose to use. Attach
rear mounting plate to wall.

IA500

• Pull CAT 3 shield twisted pair wire through the conduit
opening in the rear mounting plate, and leave nine inches
of CAT 3 wire beyond the wall.

• Strip the tip and ring wires and attach them to the IA500
(PCB) screw terminals marked tip and ring.

• Slide the IA500 down, starting from the top of the rear

mounting plate until the bottom of the IA500 comes ush

with the rear mounting plate lip.

• Replace the two retaining screws.
