Getting Started
Product Overview
Thank you for your purchase of a GAI-Tronics S.M.A.R.T., ADA-compliant, emergency telephone. In
addition to providing standard emergency telephone operation, GAI-Tronics Self-Monitoring and
Reporting Telephones (S.M.A.R.T.) incorporate leading-edge technology to provide optimum
performance and flexibility. For example, when used with the GAI-Tronics Telephone Management
Application (TMA) the health of each telephone is monitored and reported. For complete details, please
refer to the on-line help included with TMA.
The following S.M.A.R.T. emergency telephone models are described in this manual:

These functi o ns are initially progra mme d during ma nufactu ring an d testing. After installa tion, they c an
be pr ogra mme d remotel y via DTMF data ca lls, either manually or through TMA. Set the e m ergency
auto-dial phone numbers in accordance with your security plan. For most applications, the other function
settings will not need to be changed from their factory defaults. For details regarding configurable
options and the factory defau lts, please refer to t h e p rog ramming section of th is manu al and the on-li ne
help available with TM A.
The emergency push button can be programmed to call three unique telephone numbers. The unique
telephone numbers include a primary telephone number and two backup, or roll over, numbers. In the
event an emergency call cannot connect to the primary telephone number (i.e., a busy signal or no
answer), the emergency phone will automatically dial the first backup, or roll over, number. Again, in the
event an emergency call cannot connect to first backup telephone number, the emergency phone will
automatically dial the second backup, or roll over, number. This sequence will continue either until the
emergenc y c all is answered or the progr ammed numb er of ret ries is rea c h e d.
Each of the above S.M.A.R.T. Emergency Phones require a “Class 2” 12 V dc regulated power supply
(includ e d) and can b e connec ted t o any of the foll o wing:
• Central Office (CO) line to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)
• 24 V dc or 48 V dc analog station port of Private Branch Exchange (PBX), Private Automatic
Branch Exchange (PABX) or KSU.
Connection may not be made to pay phone extensions or shared service (party) lines.
OTE: Each telephone req ui res a dedicated po wer supply. Multiple telep hones cannot be
N
connected to a si ng le power supp ly. The power supply must p ro v i de g a lvanic isol at ion between its
input a nd it s 12 V dc o utput. For dc - t o -dc app licat ions, g alvanic is olation is requir e d. Galv anic
isolation (separation) is achieved by using a transformer or opto-coupler.

Installation
ATTENTION
Installation should be performed by qualified personnel and only in
accordance with the National Elec trical Code or applicable loc al cod es.
Safety Guidelines
When installing any GAI-Tronics telephone equipment, please adhere to the following guidelines to
ensure the safety of all personnel:
• Do not install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• All telephone models must be properly connected to earth ground to protect personnel and to minimize
the effects of any electrostatic discharge (e.g., lightning). The Model 293-103AL, 294-103AL, 297103, and 298-103 Telephones each include a ground terminal. Please note proper grounding does not
eliminate the need for lightning protection for the telephone or the telephone system.
• An additional UL Listed lightning arrestor may be installed on any phone or phone cable that is
exposed t o a hig h er risk of li ghtning st rikes . The l ightning arr es tor must be i nsta lled as close to the
phone as possible to maximize the protection. It must not be installed within the enclosure supplied
with the phone. Please consult our Service Center at 800-492-1212 for further information.
• Do not install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
• Do not touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
• If an ac source is available within five feet of the telephone, the included power supply can be used.
The ac source and power supply must be mounted in a dry location, such as a GAI-Tronics stanchion.
• If the ac source is located more than five feet from the telephone, either extend the wiring of the
included power supply, or provide a UL LISTED “Class 2” 12 volt dc regulated power supply.
Additionally, if the ac source is not located within the same structure or building, lightning/surge
protection is required.
General Installation Guidelines
GAI-Tronics S.M.A.R.T. phones are designed to operate on telephone lines as detailed in the Product
Overview section of this manual. The telephones are designed to operate with one telephone per line. If
telephones are operated in parallel or “party line configuration” you may experience sporadic phone
operation, difficulties with programming, or premature disconnection of calls. Additionally, if special
features, e.g. voice mail, call waiting, etc, are not disabled, the phone may not function.
Tamper-Resistant Hardware
All of the telephones described in this manual are vandal resistant. The front panel for each telephone in
this manual is attached to its enclosure with tamper-resistant screws. A GAI-Tronics Model 233-001
Tamper-Resistant Screwdriver (sold separately) is recommended for installing the tamper-resistant screws.
Conduit In stallation D etails
GAI-Tronics recommends installing telephone lines in conduit to protect against accidental damage and
vandalism. To prevent moisture from entering the enclosure, we strongly recommend the following:
• Conduit should enter the enclosure from the bottom.
• Sealed fittings should be installed at all cable entry points.
• Silicone sealant or equivalent should be applied around and inside all conduit entries.

Models 293-103, 293-103AL, and 294-103AL
The mounting and wiring instructions for Models 293-103, 293-103AL and 294-103AL are as follows:
1. Remove the front panel of the telephone by
removing the four tamper-resistant screws.
2. Remove the front panel of the enclosure.
Carefully place the front panel assembly in a safe
location while installing the back box.
3. Posit ion the enclosure o n the mountin g surface.
The enclosure provides four 0.28-inch mounting
holes. Secure it with the four ¼-inch diameter
bolts of the appropriate length for the mounting
surface.
4. For Model 293-103 only, create an access hole
using a Greenlee-type punch that is equivalent in
size to the conduit diameter. Bottom entry is
strongly recommended. Insert a conduit fitting
in the access hole. Refer to conduit installation
Figure 1. Model 293-103 and Model 293-103AL
details on page 4.
N
OTE: Use silicone sealant or equivalent around and inside all conduit entries.
5. Pull the telephone line and power supply cord
through the conduit. Connect the power supply 4pin connector to the P17 header jack on the
PCBA.
6. Connect the telephone line directly to TB1 (Tip
and Ring terminals) or install a modular jack in
the back of the enclosure and connect the preinstalled modular plug to the jack.
7. Using the Setup section of this manual:
• Make hardware conf igur atio n c hang e s.
• Adjust the audio levels if necessary.
• Perform the initial pr ogra mming.
8. Verify the phone is operating properly by calling
to and from another phone.
