General Information

GAI-Tronics Model 234L(x)-xxx LITE ( Lightweight Illuminated Telecommu nications Enclosure) Seri es
Stanchions are designed for use in commercial environments to house GAI-Tronics telephones. The
LITE Series Stanchions are designed for wall mounting, and are comprised of a front stanchion body and
rear mounting plate.

The LITE Series Stanchions are available in both ac and 12 V dc versions. The standard LITE Series
Stanchion body is made of a durable 3/16-inch nominal thickness acrylic sheet in safety yellow with black
ASSISTANCE graphics applied on each side. The 1/16-inch thick aluminum rear mounting plate is
powder coated gray for maximum durability. An additional eight stanchion colors and four graphics are
also available.

Two LED lights are mounted on the front of the stanchion. The LED locator light contains super bright
LEDs that are visible even in sunlight. The courtesy LED panel light provides nighttime illumination of
the telephone.

The blue beacon mounted on top of the stanchion provides a visual indication that the stanchion telephone
is in use. When used with the GAI-Tronics Series 297 and 298 Series Push-Button Phones, the blue
beacon energizes when the red push button is activated and will remain activated until the call is
terminated. When used with the GAI-Tronics Series 276 and 277 Handset Phones, the blue beacon
energizes when the handset is lifted from the cradle, and remains activated until the handset is hung up.

Mounting Panel Pre-Wiring

For ease of installation, th e L I TE Series Sta nc hion can be p artially p re- wired on a horiz ontal sur f ace prior
to mounting. This minimizes the connections that must be made when the stanchion is attached to the
wall. It is also recommended that the appropriate telephone back box be mounted to the stanchion body
at this time. See Telephone Installation on page 11.

Make the rear mounting plate wiring connections between and within the weatherproof boxes. Connect
the wire leads for stanchion lights. Refer to the connection diagram in Figure 2 for components that can
be pre-wired.

NOTE

All connections must b e made in accordance w ith the National Electrical Code

(NEC) in the United S ta tes o r the Canadian El ectrical Codes (CEC) in Canada.

Additionally, if the Model 203-003 Interior Lighting Kit is to be installed, it should be done at the same
time. Refer to the Interior Lighting Kit section on page 5 for installation instructions.

Wire routing is exceptionally important if interior lighting is installed. Wires must be adequately bundled
and anchored so as not to cast shadows on the main stanchion body. Refer to Figure 3 for proper wire
routing a nd anchor ing.

24 V DC Modification s

GAI-Tronics 12 V dc LITE Series Stanchions are preset for 12 V dc power operation. For 24 V dc input
operation, modifications must be made to the stanchion. Modify the stanchion by removing the jumper
(labeled JMPR) located on the upper right side of the relay PCBA within the dc weatherproof box.
Additionally, the locator light must be replaced with a 24 V dc compatible version. Contact GAI-Tronics
Corporation to obtain a 24 V dc version of the locator light. Supply the stanchion with 24 V dc input
power.

Installa tion of Model 203-003 Int erior Lighting K it

Most LITE Seri es Stanchio n models can be illuminate d from the interior p roviding a glowing appear ance
for maximum visibility. This is especially effective at night or in low light areas such as parking garages.

The optional Model 203-003 Interior Lighting Kit for the LITE Series Stanchion contains a 19-module
LED string, with each module containing four super bright white LEDs. The string of LEDs is mounted
to the stanchion’s rear mounting plate. All LITE Series Stanchions include the necessary hardware for
attaching the LED string to the mounting plate.

OTE: The foll owing sta nchi on colors c annot be lit from the interior because the stanchion body

N

material is opaque:

234LN-xxx - Night Black (PLEXIGLAS 2025)
234LE-xxx - Earth Brown (PLEXIGLAS 2418)
234LU-xxx - Utility Gray (PLEXIGLAS 3001)

Begin installation of the Model 203-003 Interior Lighting Kit by placing the rear mounting plate on a
horizontal surface. Arrange the string of LEDs, without permanently attaching them, as shown in
Figure 3. Hook the mounting feet on the five mounting studs to insure proper layout and spacing of the
string. Untwist any modules as necessary. Permanently attach the LED modules to the panel as follows:

1. Place the five provided metallic spacer washers (provided with stanchion) on each mounting stud.

Beginning in the bottom left of the rear mounting plate, peel the transfer film off of the first LED
modu le and locate it u sing the protruding stud. R efer to F igur e 3 .

2. Move to the mounting stud on the top left corner and peel the transfer film off of the LED module

closest to it. Locate it us ing the protruding stud. Repe at this step for the top cent er, t op right, and
bottom right protruding studs. Do not peel the transfer film and attach the LED modules between the
studs.

3. Assemble the 6-32 nuts (provided with stanchion) to the studs with the LED modules on them.

Tighten the nuts snug against the modules. Do not over-tighten the nuts, as this will stress the self­adhesive tape on the modules.

4. Beginning in the bottom left of the panel, peel the transfer film from the remaining LED modules and

attach them. Align each module with the one below it and maintain consistent spacing between each
module. Repeat this step with all modules, working around the panel in a clockwise direction. If care
is taken, the modules will be consistently spaced when complete.

5. Finally, wire the module string into 12 V dc power. Refer to Figure 3 for the suggested wire layout

and connection points. If a separate 12 V dc power source is used, be sure to attach the white wire to
positive and black to negative.

3. Connect the proper power source to the stanchion. For ac powered stanchions, power should be

routed to the ac weatherproof box located at the bottom of the stanchion. For 12 V dc powered
stanchions, the corresponding 12 V dc can be routed directly into the weatherproof box containing the
relay and terminal block. Attach the power input directly to the terminal block (positive = red or
white, negative = black). All cable entering or exiting the weatherproof boxes must be properly
sealed with the supplied Heyco bushings or properly sized conduit fittings. For 12 V dc stanchion
models, skip to step 6.

4. To attach the incoming ac power to the power switcher, remove the two screws holding the internal

mounting bracket. The switching power supply is attached to this bracket. Connect incoming ac
power to the corresponding connection point on the power switcher (H = black, N = white, ground
symbol = green). Refer to Figure 7.

Pub. 42004-338 Model 277-001 Autodial Telephone

The telephones listed above must be weatherproofed before installation within a LITE Series Stanchion in
an unprotected outdoor environment. All stanchion components are housed in weatherproof boxes
(3R rating) or are completely sealed (IP 66 rating). Standard GAI-Tronics telephones do not have sealed
rear enclosures, and the stanchion body does not provide adequate protection. Weatherproofing can be
accomplished in two ways: by purchasing a sealed back box (Part No. 236-002) or by sealing the standard
GAI-Tronics back box.

OTE: Steps 1 through 4 should be performed prior to wiring the stanchion body components to the rear

N

mounting plate.

1. Separate the back box from the telephone front panel.

2. If installing in an unprotected outdoor area, a sealed telephone back box must be used. Part No.

236-002 sealed back box can be purchased, or the supplied standard back box enclosure can be
sealed.

3. To seal the standard back box, run a sufficient bead of silicon caulk on both the inside and outside of

the enclosure’s four corners and seams. Ensure that all gaps are sealed.

4. The standard back box has a top and a bottom opening. Seal the supplied top hole plug to the back

box with silicone sealant. Attach a weatherproof cable bushing to the bottom enclosure hole for wire
entry. Additional entries can be placed on the bottom of the back box. Use the proper weatherproof
cable bushing for all wire entry. Indoor applications do not require sealing.

5. Place the back box into the phone opening from the front of the stanchion. Mount the box using the

eight 6-32 self-tapping flat head screws supplied in the stanchion’s parts envelope. Refer to Figure 9.

6. The telephone front panel is shipped from the factory with a cable and modular plug attached to TB1.

If the telephone line is to be hard-wired to the phone, this cable can be removed and discarded. Skip
to step 7. If desired, an optional modular telephone jack can be mounted to the inside of the back box
allowing the use of the cable and modular plug that is attached to TB1.

7. Bring the cable lead from the relay PCBA through the access hole of at the bottom of the back box for

connection to the telephone PCBA.

8. Attach the telephone’s cable lead to TB2 (out) on the telephone PCBA as shown in Figure 5.

Final Ass embly

Test the stanchion as follows:

1. Energize the circuit for testing purposes before closing the stanchion.

2. When energized, the courtesy light and locator LED light will illuminate. If the Model 203-003

Interior Lighting Kit has be e n install e d, it w ill also illuminat e.

CAUTION

The lighti ng kit L E D s are very bright, and c are should be taken to prot ect the eyes as necessary
if the sta nchion body is removed.

3. Ensure that the mounted telephone is on an active line and all programming to the telephone is

complete in accordance with its instruction manual. Depress the red button to test that the telephone
dials to the proper phone number and the beacon activates. After the open line is disconnected, the
beacon will stop flashing. Refer to the connection diagram in Figure 5 and phone’s user manual to
troubleshoot any problems. For handset version phones, lifting the handset from the cradle should
activate the beacon.

4. After all testing has been successfully completed, attach the supplied gasket and cover to the

weatherproof boxes. Wrap the supplied closure plug threads with Teflon

®

tape, and use them to seal

any open access holes.

5. If the stanchion has the interior lighting kit installed, check the location of all wires before screwing

the enclosure shut. If wire shadows are cast in an unacceptable manner on the main stanchion, make
adjustments by lifting the bottom of the main stanchion body away from the wall approximately 8–10
inches. Adjust any wires as necessary, and replace the stanchion body parallel to the wall.

6. The screw attachment locations on the rear mounting panel will be in line with the countersunk holes

in the main stanchion body when the mounting plate, mounting surface, and stanchion main body are
parallel. Attach the two supplied 10-32 tamper-resistant screws into the screw hole locations located
on the bottom of the stanchion to secure the body.

Warranty

Equipment. GAI-Tronics warrants for a period of one (1) year from the date of shipment, that any

GAI-Tronics equipment supplied hereunder shall be free of defects in material and workmanship, shall
comply with the then-current product specifications and product literature, and if applicable, shall be fit
for the purpose specified in the agreed-upon quotation or proposal document. If (a) Seller’s goods prove
to be defective in workmanship and/or material under normal and proper usage, or unfit for the purpose
specified and agreed upon, and (b) Buyer’s claim is made within the warranty period set forth above,
Buyer may return such goods to GAI-Tronics’ nearest depot repair facility, freight prepaid, at which time
they will be repaired or replaced, at Seller’s option, without charge to Buyer. Repair or replacement shall
be Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy. The warranty period on any repaired or replacement equipment
shall be the greater of the ninety (90) day repair warranty or one (1) year from the date the original
equipment was shipped. In no event shall GAI-Tronics warranty obligations with respect to equipment
exceed 100% of the total cost of the equipment supplied hereunder. Buyer may also be entitled to the
manufacturer’s warranty on any third-party goods supplied by GAI-Tronics hereunder. The applicability
of any such third-party warranty will be determined by GAI-Tronics.

Services. Any services GAI-Tronics provides hereunder, whether directly or through subcontractors,

shall be performed in accordance with the standard of care with which such services are normally
provided in the industry. If the services fail to meet the applicable industry standard, GAI-Tronics will
re-perform such services at no cost to buyer to correct said deficiency to Company's satisfaction provided
any and all issues are identified prior to the demobilization of the Contractor’s personnel from the work
site. Re-performance of services shall be Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, and in no event shall GAI­Tronics warranty obligations with respect to services exceed 100% of the total cost of the services
provided hereunder.

Warranty Periods. Every claim by Buyer alleging a defect in the goods and/or services provided

hereunder shall be deemed waived unless such claim is made in writing within the applicable warranty
periods as set forth above. Provided, however, that if the defect complained of is latent and not
discoverable within the above warranty periods, every claim arising on account of such latent defect shall
be deemed waived unless it is made in writing within a reasonable time after such latent defect is or
should have been discovered by Buyer.

Limitations / Exclusions. The warranties herein shall not apply to, and GAI-Tronics shall not be

responsible for, any damage to the goods or failure of the services supplied hereunder, to the extent
caused by Buyer’s neglect, failure to follow operational and maintenance procedures provided with the
equipment, or the use of technicians not specifically authorized by GAI-Tronics to maintain or service the
equipment. THE WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES CONTAINED HEREIN ARE IN LIEU OF AND
EXCLUDE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY
OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
