Field Wiring
The ICS Page/Party® Station provides terminal blocks for field wiring. Each connection for the system
cable has two terminals for daisy-chain wiring. Attach #6 spade lugs to the wires before attachment to the
terminal blocks for the most secure connection. Torque the terminal block screws to 8–10 in-lbs.
(0.90–1.13 n-m) when attaching the spade lugs.
The terminal blocks on the Termination PCBA are labeled to coincide with the color code used on GAITronics 60029 series multi-party cable or 60038 series single party cable. Refer to Figure 6 for a sample
wiring diagram.
In certain circumstances where paging audio induces feedback, muting the speakers of two or more
stations during a page, referred to as mutual muting, can eliminate such feedback problems. This function
is enabled by connecting the spare orange wire between stations to terminal block TB4-2 or TB5-2.

Operation
For paging and subsequent party line conversation, the station operator lifts the handset, selects a free
party line using the five-position rotary selector switch (if equipped), and presses the handset pressbar or
headset page switch. The station operator pages the desired individual and designates the party line on
which that individual should respond. The individual then responds by approaching the nearest ICS
Page/Party
Full-duplex communication can then be held on the party line without broadcasting over the speakers.
After the conversation is complete, all parties should place the handset back on hook.

ICS SmartSeries
General
The 69552 SmartSeries PCBA adds microprocessor control to the ICS Page/Party® station, providing
additional sensor and monitoring capabilities. SmartSeries and VLC PCBAs cannot be installed in the
same station.
Features
When used with or without ADVANCE head-end equipment:
Ambient Level Sensing (ALS) circuitry automatically changes the local speaker’s paging volume in
response to varying background noise
Off-hook timeout prevents noise being introduced to a party line by electronically placing the handset
“on-hook” after 8 minutes
Page timeout limits a single page broadcast to two minutes, freeing the page line for emergencies
When used with ADVANCE head-end equipment:
Station monitoring of key components (including handset, amplifier and local speaker) provides fast
notification of any faults
Ability to accept supervised contact closure inputs and provide a supervised relay output (requires
RTU option)

WARNING
Before performing any of the following settings and adjustments, remove all
power from the station.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of hazardous atmospheres, disconnect the equipment
from the supply circuit before making any adjustments to the amplifier’s handset level.
Remove all cover bolts from the enclosure. Swing the front door open to access the internal PCBAs.
Setting the Address
For the SmartSeries option to function properly, each station in an ADVANCE system zone must be
given a unique address using the hexadecimal switches, S1 (Hi Address) and S2 (Lo Address). Each
switch contains 16 settings, labeled 0–F. A small arrow on each switch indicates the setting.
The station address is determined by the high address setting followed by the low address setting. For
example, to assign an address of 05, the high station address is set to 0 and the low address is set to 5.
Valid address settings are 05 to FE. Record the address assigned for each station in the system for your
records. If the SmartSeries PCBA is installed in a system without an ADVANCE head end, set the
address to 04 (default).
ALS Minimum Level
The ALS minimum level is the lowest speaker output level that the station will maintain. To set the ALS
minimum level, turn R91 fully counterclockwise
. Listen for a single beep from the speaker indicating the
speaker amplifier is in the Minimum Level Adjustment mode. If the page line is in use immediately after
the beep tone, the page signal should be used to make the minimum level adjustment. If the page line is
inactive following the beep tone, a continuous tone is activated to make the minimum level adjustment.
After the tone is activated, all page line activity is ignored until completion of the adjustment.
This test tone is used as a reference to adjust the speaker amplifier output level to the desired volume.
Adjust R91 to the desired output. The test tone automatically shuts off 5 seconds after the last
adjustment. The factory default setting for minimum level is 4.0 watts nominal into an 8-ohm load.
ALS Offset Level
The ALS offset level allows the output of the speaker amplifier to maintain a set difference or “offset”
between the ambient noise level and the speaker output level. To set the ALS offset level, turn R91 fully
clockwise and listen for the two beep tones indicating that the station is in the Offset Adjustment mode.
If the page line is in use immediately after the two beep tones are heard, the page signal should be used to
make the offset level adjustment. If the page line is inactive immediately following the beep tones, a
continuous tone is activated to make the offset level adjustment. After the tone is activated, all page line
activity is ignored until completion of the adjustment. Adjust R91 to the desired offset level.
N
OTE: This adjustment should be made under maximum ambient noise level conditions. The ALS offset
level must always be set higher than the ALS minimum level setting.

SmartSeries VLC Level
®
Station Page 14 of 31
When activated, the VLC overrides the ALS minimum level setting allowing the speaker volume to
change to a preset level during an emergency page. To adjust the VLC Level, force the station into the
VLC mode by having someone execute a page from a station programmed by the MCU to activate the
VLC function. During the page, turn the R91 control fully counterclockwise
, and listen for two beep
tones through the page speaker indicating the VLC Adjustment mode has been activated. After the two
beep tones, turn the R91 control to the desired speaker level using the live paging signal to adjust the
level. The station automatically exits the VLC Adjustment mode and reverts to normal operation 5
seconds after the last pot adjustment.
OTE: The system must be equipped with an ADVANCE head end to activate the VLC function.
N
Speaker Impedance Supervision
When this feature is configured, the station will supervise the speaker line for changes in the speaker line
impedance. To perform this function the station must be calibrated for the impedance of the speaker(s)
attached. If the station has never been previously calibrated, the station will report a speaker fault within
15 minutes of being configured for this feature. The station may be calibrated either “locally” at the
station or “remotely” by a system command from the ADVANCE head end. See the ADVANCE System
Programming Manual for details of “remote” calibration.
To perform a “local” calibration, first ensure that the station is configured for speaker impedance
supervision. Next, set the station's address to 0x02. Wait until you hear a single-beep tone at the attached
speaker. This should occur within 20 seconds. This tone indicates that a successful calibration was
performed.
If instead a double-beep tone is heard, this indicates that the station attempted to calibrate but was
unsuccessful (the attached impedance is out-of-range). If a tone is not heard, the station may not be
configured for speaker impedance supervision or there is an open connection to the speaker.
After hearing the single beep tone, set the address back to its original value to resume normal station
operation with the new calibration value.
NOTE: If this feature is used, then jumper P9 of the Main PCBA must be in the HI (default) position.

Attaching the Front Cover
After all adjustments have been completed, inspect and clean the machined flange joint surfaces of both
the cover and box. Surfaces must be smooth, free of nicks, scratches, dirt or any foreign particle build-up
that would prevent a proper seal. Surfaces must seat fully against each other to provide a proper
explosion-proof joint. Clean surfaces by wiping with a clean lint-free cloth.
Apply a light coat of Killark “LUBG” lubricant to flange surfaces and close the cover. Install and tighten
all cover bolts to 30 ft.-lbs. Make certain no cover bolts are omitted. Use only those bolts supplied with
the enclosure.
It may become necessary to re-terminate some or all of the enclosures in a system. If so, strip the wires
back to clean copper and connect only one wire to each connector to allow for easier future
troubleshooting.
OTE: Refer to the Killark Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Data Sheet enclosed with the unit for
N
additional information.
Operation
Paging with ADVANCE Head End
Paging and party line operation with the ICS SmartSeries option is similar to standard station operation.
The main differences are that when the handset pressbar or the headset page switch is pressed, a steady
“wait” tone will be heard in the handset/headset earpiece. When the “wait” tone ends, a preannouncement tone, if programmed, will sound, and the operator may place their page. If the system is
busy and the page is denied, the user will hear a busy tone in the handset/headset earpiece.
Paging without ADVANCE Head End
Paging and party line operation will be similar to standard station operation.

Station Time-out Features
®
Station Page 16 of 31
The ICS SmartSeries option supports a page duration limit that sets the maximum duration of each page.
If the page is still active when the page duration limit is reached, the page will be terminated. When used
without an ADVANCE head end, the page duration limit is fixed at 2 minutes.
The ICS SmartSeries option supports an off-hook limit that sets the maximum duration that the station
may be kept off hook. If the off-hook limit is reached, the station will be placed electrically on hook. To
reset the timeout condition, the handset must be physically placed on hook momentarily. When used
without an ADVANCE head end, the off-hook limit is fixed at 8 minutes.
All Call Paging Utilizing a Merge/Isolate Cabinet
Merge/Isolate (M/I) cabinets contain switching relays that are energized by a control signal from
Page/Party
Page/Party
®
stations. When energized, the relays merge (connect together) the page lines of multiple
®
systems. This allows voice pages to be broadcast from all the systems connected to the M/I
cabinet. ICS handset stations with the All Call feature contain a push-button switch on the front panel for
activating an M/I cabinet. Refer to Figure 11.

VLC
General
The 69553 Volume Level Control (VLC) PCBA adds the capability of remotely controlling the local
speaker volume level. When VLC is activated, a remote device transmits a 50 kHz signal over the page

WARNING
Before performing any of the following settings and adjustments, remove all
power from the station.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of hazardous atmospheres, disconnect the equipment
from the supply circuit before making any adjustments to the amplifier’s handset level.
Remove all cover bolts from the enclosure. Swing the front door open to access the internal PCBAs.
50 kHz Alignment
The 50 kHz alignment, R5, adjusts the receiver’s frequency for VLC operation. It is set at the factory and
should not be adjusted by the installer.
Speaker Mute
P26 allows for the installer to mute the speaker audio during VLC operation or normal operation. In the
“50kHz” position, the audio is muted during a VLC broadcast. In the “NORM” position, the audio is
muted during normal operation. To operate the unit without the muting feature, remove P26.
Audio Alignment
To set the normal speaker output level, set DIP switch SW2-1 to the “off” position. Set SW2-2 to the
“on” position to enable a reference test tone. Adjust R91 on the Main PCBA (refer to Figure 9 for
location) to the desired audio level. To mute the audio, turn R91 fully counterclockwise and put P26,
MUTE, in the “NORM” position.
OTE: If LED2 on the VLC PCBA is on, indicating the system VLC tone is present, this adjustment
N
cannot be made.
To set the VLC controlled speaker output level, set SW2-1 to the “on” position. Set SW2-2 to the “on”
position to enable a reference test tone. Adjust R12 on the VLC PCBA to the desired audio level. To
mute the audio, turn R91 fully counterclockwise and put P26, MUTE, in the “50KHz” position.
Set SW2-1 and SW2-2 to the “off” position to return to normal system operation.

To activate the RTU relay when the system VLC tone is present, set SW2-4 to the “on” position.
Attaching the Front Cover
After all adjustments have been completed, inspect and clean the machined flange joint surfaces of both
the cover and box. Surfaces must be smooth, free of nicks, scratches, dirt or any foreign particle build-up
that would prevent a proper seal. Surfaces must seat fully against each other to provide a proper
explosion-proof joint. Clean surfaces by wiping with a clean lint-free cloth.
Apply a light coat of Killark “LUBG” lubricant to flange surfaces and close the cover. Install and tighten
all cover bolts to 30 ft.-lbs. Make certain no cover bolts are omitted. Use only those bolts supplied with
the enclosure.
It may become necessary to re-terminate some or all of the enclosures in a system. If so, strip the wires
back to clean copper and connect only one wire to each connector to allow for easier future
troubleshooting.
