General Information

The Model 370-301 Dual Channel 600-Ohm to 33-Ohm Converter allows GAI-Tronics’ Page/Party 600-ohm networks for one- or two-way communication between dissimilar transmission mediums.
The 370-301 includes two hybrid interfaces in each channel to isolate the audio so that the received audio in one direction does not affect the transmit audio in the other direction.
The 370-301 includes a VOX (voice activated switch) on each of the outputs. The VOX samples the audio out to the line. In the presence of audio, a relay is activated for receive amplifier activation.

WARNING
from a battery charger without the batteries connected.
In 24 V dc systems, most chargers have an unloaded output of 35 to 45 volts that can quickly damage the equipment designed for nominal 24 volts. The maximum battery voltage should never exceed the maximum specified input voltage.
In 24 V dc systems: Under NO condition should this equipment be operated

Mounting the Enclosure

NOTE: The enclosure is intended for indoor use only.
Mount the enclosure using the four 0.312-inch (8 mm) diameter holes located on the mounting flanges with ¼-inch (M6) hardware. The 370-301 is not supplied with conduit or cable openings.
Remove the front panel and drill or punch entry openings in the rear section of the enclosure
Refer to Figure 2 for the suggested locations. There must be a minimum of ½ inch (13 mm) of material between entry holes. The station is suitable for top or bottom entry per Figure 2. However, GAI-Tronics recommends bottom entry only wherever possible.
The standard orientation shown in Figure 2 locates the power supply housing in the upper left corner. The orientation of the enclosure can be rotated 180º to allow clear access to the top.
The 69856-xxx PCBA can then be rotated for correct orientation.
For specific details including mounting hole dimensions, refer to Figure 2. When mounting the enclosure, use caution to avoid damaging the internal components.
