General Information

GAI-Tronics’ Centra-Page systems provide dependable paging and party line communications for rugged
and haza rdous indust ria l f aciliti es . Cent ra- Page syste ms feature centrally loc ated elect ron ic s tha t pr ovide
environ me nta l prot e c tion and u nitiz e d amp l ificatio n for easy ma inte nance. Standard Cent ra- Page
cabinets can support up to 30 handset stations, and in most cases, up to 60 paging speakers. Alarms and
telephone interfacing can be added to Centra-Page systems with the addition of a Model 10959-006
Audio Messenger Interface (AMI) and a Model 10961-001 AMI Centra-Page Interface.

The Model 10961-001 AMI Centra-Page Interface, in combination with the AMI, can replace the Model
H97019 Programmable Tone/Speech Generator and the Model 10448-202 Telephone Interface for
Centra-Page systems or the Model B93017 Programmable Telephone Interface in CP/P II systems.

The Model 10961-001 AMI Centra-Page Interface is designed to provide five alarm inputs to activate the
Model 10959-006 AMI’s tone/speech generator when both are mounted in a Model 10468-002 Centra­Pa ge C entr al Cabinet and are pr operly configured.

The AMI Centra-Page Interface can provide Centra-Page systems access to the public telephone network.
The telephone line coupler is designed for loop start operation with bridged ringing. This coupler is
registered by the FCC number ADGOT01B46055. The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is 0.1A, with
an RJ11C connection.

WARNING

WARNING

Do not apply power until all the connections have been wired.

Connect only to a UL-listed Class 2 power source.

If replacing existing equipment, remove the tone generator, telephone interface, and the associated wiring
prior to installing the Model 10961-001 Interface.

The Model 10961-001 AMI Centra-Page Interface and the Model 10959-006 AMI should be installed in
the Centra-Page central cabinet at the same time. Allow 6U of open space immediately below the Model
10461-002 Card Rack in the lowest position in the cabinet to mount the AMI, and immediately beneath it,
the Centra-Page Interface. Refer to Figure 2.

OTE: The standard lengths of the interconnecting cables do not allow for blank panel space between

N

th ese p ieces of eq uipme nt.

1. Carefully unpack and identify the various components. The Model 10959-006 AMI includes a parts

envelope containing mounting hardware, a CD, and a 12 V dc Walpac. The Model 10961-001 AMI
Centra-Page Interface includes a parts envelope containing seven cable assemblies, four mounting
screws, a SmartMedia

®

card, a modu lar RJ11 s plitter, an d a Centra- P age terminal block label. The

seven cable assemblies are:

• 61531-033 • 61531-038 • 61531-041 (9-inch green ground wire)

• 61531-034 • 61531-039

• 61531-035 • 61531-040

2. Use the mounting hardware supplied with the AMI to mount it directly below the bottom card rack.

Startup

The AMI begins its startup procedure when 24 V dc is applied. When the startup procedure is complete,
the AMI will be communicating with the 69407-002 I/O controller PCBA on the Model 10961-001
Interface.

“System Up” will be displayed on the AMI. When viewed from the rear of the cabinet, LED1 on the
69407-002 should be flashing. Use the display and the buttons on the front of the AMI to set the time and
date. Refer to GAI-Tronics Pub. 42004-345 for more setup and operation information for the AMI.

Quick Test

1. Press the PRIORITY 1 button on the front of the Interface panel to play the Alarm 1 tone over the
Cent ra- P age statio n and the cr e w’ s qua rter s speakers.

2. Press the CLEAR button on the front panel of the AMI Centra-Page Interface to stop the alarm tone.

3. Set the D

AY/NIGHT switch on the front of the AMI Centra-Page Interface panel to Night Mode. Call

th e AMI from an exter n al l ine or a phone wi th a dif ferent number th an the AMI.

4. When ringing can be heard through the Centra-Page system, press the ACCESS button on the front
of t he I n terface panel to a n swer the p hone.

5. From a Centra-Page station set to party line 1, take the handset off-hook. There should be two-way
audio with the c all i ng ph one.

6. Press the D

ISCONNECT button on the front of the AMI Centra-Page Interface panel to hang up the

phone.

Operation

General

The Model 10959-006 AMI has an on-board MP3 player that generates pre-recorded tones and speech
messages. It stores these sound and its configuration files on a SmartMedia
telephone interface PCBA that connects to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).

The Model 10961-001 AMI Centra-Page Interface is designed to allow the capabilities of the AMI to a be
used by Centra-Page system. The AMI Centra-Page Interface contains two boards: the 69407-002 I/O
controller and the 69542-001 AMI Centra-Page Interface PCBAs. The interface connects the alarm, page,
and party audi o bet ween the AMI and t he Centra-Pa ge system. In addition, the panel and r e mote s witch e s
connect to the AMI Centra-Page Interface communicating their state to the AMI.

Alarms and Paging

Five alarms can be activated from the push buttons on the front panel of the AMI Centra-Page Interface or
from remote switches (momentary/N.O). The alarms can be cleared or reset using the push button on the
front panel. For convenience, a remote switch can be connected to control each alarm. Use terminal
block TB11 on the Centra-Page central cabinet’s rear panel to connect the remote switches.

Each alarm plays a different tone and each has a different priority level assigned to it. Alarm 1 has the
highest priority and Alarm 5 the lowest. If an alarm tone is playing and a higher priority alarm is
activated, the higher priority will override the lower priority alarm. Pot 15 on the 69542-001 PCBA
adjusts the alarm audio level.

If an alarm is playing and someone makes a page from a Centra-Page station the alarm will be reduced by

-7 dB and the page will play over top of the alarm. If the alarm is still active when the page is complete,

the alarm level will return to its normal level.

Crew’s Q uarters Muting

The crew’s quarters sp eaker s are n ormally muted and no a larms or pa ges are broadcast. T he M odel
10961-001 Interface has an output that allows the crew’s quarters speakers to be unmuted so that selected
alarms can be heard. The output can be set up so that it is active when one or all of the first three alarms
are played.

Jumpers P1 to P3 are used to select alarms 1 to 3. Putting the jumper across positions 1 and 2 makes the
output inactive for that alarm and putting the jumper in positions 2 and 3 activates the output for that
alarm. The output is on TBX04 on the AMI Centra-Page Interface’s 69542-001 PCBA. It is position 9 of
TBX04 and will have a black wire long enough to connect to the back panel of the Crew’s Quarters
terminal block.

T elephone Interf ace

The Model 10959-006 AMI connects to the PSTN, and through the Model 10961-001 AMI Centra-Page
Interface, connects to the Centra-Page system. Pressing the Interface’s front panel A

D

ISCONNECT buttons causes the AMI to take the phone line on or off-hook. Pot R10 on the 69542-001

PCBA can adjust the level of the audio from the phone line to the Centra-Page party line.

OTE: The IN USE LED on the front panel of the Interface lights when the phone line is connected to

N

party line 1.

There are two modes of operation: Day mode and Night mode. The Day/Night mode toggle switch on the
Interface’s front panel is used to switch between the two modes. If the toggle switch is put in the Night
position, a remote switch (maintained) connected to terminal block TB13 on the rear panel of the Centra­Page Central Cabinet can be used.

Day Mod e

An attendant, with access to a phone on the same line as the AMI and a Centra-Page station, answers the
incoming call and pages the person being called. When that person answers on party line 1 of the Centra­Page system, the attendant presses the ACCESS button to connect the phone line to the party line. Upon
completion of the call, the attendant presses the DISCONNECT button to hang up the phone line.

CCESS and

If the attendant is not there, the AMI will auto-answer after the fourth ring. The caller will hear two
beeps, and can then make a live page. When a Centra-Page station goes off-hook after the page, the
phone is connected to party line 1. The AMI will go back on-hook 15 seconds after the station goes back
on-hook.

Night Mo de

In night mode an incoming call is auto-answered after one ring. The ring message is played over the
paging system until a Centra-Page station on party line 1 goes off-hook. The page then stops and the
phone line is connected to party line 1. The AMI will go back on-hook 15 seconds after the station goes
back on-hook.

There is a one-minute time out if the page is not answered and then the AMI will hang up the call.
