Remove the four screws from the front panel and turn it to the right so that the interior surface faces you. Allow the wiring and ribbon cables to remain connected. This configuration presents the easiest access for troubleshooting and setting adjustments.
Installing the SmartSeries PCBA
Remove power from the station.
Remove all jumpers on the Main PCBA P4 connector.
Align the SmartSeries PCBA with four mounting holes to the right of the Main PCBA with the edge of the SmartSeries board under the Main PCBA. Secure the SmartSeries PCBA with the four screws provided.
Install the provided 34-pin ribbon cable from P4 of Main PCBA to P4 of SmartSeries PCBA.
Reapply power to the station.
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
®
Station Page 11 of 33
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.
NOTE: 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
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.

Speaker Impedance Supervision
®
Station Page 12 of 33
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.
FSK Signal Gain
The FSK Signal Gain, R13, adjusts the FSK transmit signal strength. It is set at the factory and should not be adjusted by the installer.
Attaching the Front Panel
After all adjustments have been completed, place the front cover in the rear enclosure, being careful not to pinch any cables. Secure the front cover using the four screws and washers provided. Torque the screws to 50 in-lbs (5.65 n-m).

Operation

Paging with ADVANCE Head End
®
Station Page 13 of 33
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 with the addition of an optional pre-announcement tone being generated by the station at the beginning of each page.
Station Time-out Features
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.
Emergency Party Line (EP L)
When connected to an ADVANCE control cabinet, the EPL option enables the ICS SmartSeries Station to automatically report the following information when the handset is taken off-hook.
Zone number Station address Party line (1 or 2)

All Call Paging Utilizing a Merge/Isolate Cabinet
Pub. 42004-734L2D
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 8.

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 line. The station detects the 50 kHz signal and switches to an alternate speaker volume setting.
VLC and SmartSeries options cannot be used in the same station.

Features

Provides an “alternate” speaker volume setting that is activated by receiving a 50 kHz signal on the
page line.
Allows office or crew quarters speakers to be muted until a high priority message or alarm is
broadcast.
Enables outdoor speaker volume to be reduced at night. Prevents local handset paging during emergency conditions. Adds the ability to provide a relay output (requires RTU option)
