installation instructions, warranty registration
and homeowner’s manual to the homeowner.
PRECAUTIONS AND GUIDELINES
The NuTone IMA-4406 master station has been designed for
ease of installation. Please read and follow ALL installation
instructions, guidelines and precautions. Any deviation from
these instructions or miswiring combinations may result in
unit failure and void of warranty.
WARNING!
120 Volt AC Power to Transformers in the IR-105
Rough-in MUST Remain OFF until ALL System Wiring
at the Master and Remote Stations is Complete.
• Observe all local building regulatory codes in your area.
• All screw terminals at the master and remote stations must
be secure.
• Observe all color code connections of wires when
connecting the remote stations to the master.
• The IMA-4406 is designed to be installed with only NuTone
specified wire. No other wire should be used. The use of
wire other than NuTone wire will void all NuTone warranties
and may result in faulty installation and improper operation.
IMPORTANT WARNING!
THE POWER TRANSFORMER CONTAINS AN
INTERNAL FUSE.
DO NOT SHORT THE LOW VOLTAGE CONNECTING
SCREWS OF THE TRANSFORMER OR THE
TRANSFORMER WILL BE DESTROYED!
Use NuTone IW-2, 22 ga. twisted pair for connecting:
• Door speakers to master
• Remote controls to speakers
Speaker volume control (IC901) to master
•
• Speaker volume control (IC901) to speakers
• Electronic chime audio output to master
• Pushbutton to chime module
Use NuTone S-143, 18 ga. twisted pair for connecting:
• Pushbutton to electronic chime
• Electronic chime to chime transformer
Use Nº14/2 power cable with ground, Class 1 UL Listed
(Observe local codes) for connecting:
• Transformers to 120v AC
Use shielded audio cable for connecting external audio
sources to the master station.
REMOTE STATION WIRING
An individual 6-wire cable (IW-6) must be connected from
each remote station or remote control location to the master
station’s terminal board.
Maximum station wire length: 750 ft.
IMPORTANT! NuTone cannot be responsible for
improper system operation that results from
interference generated by light dimmers, fluorescent
lighting fixtures, and similar electrical products. Such
interference must be corrected at the source. TO HELP
REDUCE THIS INTERFERENCE, ALL WIRING
CONNECTIONS TO THE MASTER MUST BE PLACED
AT LEAST 12 INCHES FROM ANY AC POWER WIRING.
AVOID RUNNING INTERCOM WIRES PARALLEL TO
AC POWER WIRING.
Maximum total length of IW-6 cable per system: 4,000 ft.
MAXIMUM NUMBER OF REMOTE
STATIONS
The master station will accommodate up to 9 connections
at the terminal board. These connections can be any
combination of remote stations, remote controls or volume

CONNECTING OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
1. Refer to Figure 22. To connect an external audio source
(NuTone Model CP-95 cassette, stereo system, VCR, TV,
etc. with low level audio output) to the IMA-4406 master
station, locate the TAPE and AUXiliary inputs on the
upper center of the master station’s main circuit board.
2. Connect an RCA™phono type plug to the shielded audio
cable coming from the external audio source. Follow the
phono plug manufacturer’s instructions when connecting
to the cable.
3. Insert the phono plug into the appropriate input jack
(TAPE or AUX) on the master station’s main circuit board.
NOTE: The TAPE and AUX inputs have input audio level
controls to allow matching of the external audio source
with the radio and CD audio of the master.
4. To use the selected source audio for recording onto a
cassette recorder, insert the recorder’s plug into the
master station’s LINE OUT jack.
5. Optional connection to provide program audio only:
• The CD, radio or optional audio sources can be
channeled through an auxiliary amplifier (purchase
a NuTone Model IMA-516 separately) to provide
uninterrupted music (no intercom) to separate
speakers. This type of installation can be used for
example, in a doctor’s office where intercom and
music are desired in the office area, but music only
is desired in the waiting room.
NOTE: If an auxiliary amplifier is used, connect the
•
master station’s LINE OUT jacks to the auxiliary
amplifier’s low-level audio input wires using shielded
audio cable (not supplied by NuTone).
• NOTE: When using the LINE OUT for recording
program audio or distributing program audio only
through an external amplifier, the automatic CD PAUSE
should be disabled or the audio present on the LINEOUT jack will stop when the intercom or chime is used.
To disable the
manual.

The volume levels required at each station may vary with the
location of the speaker and the size of the room where the
speaker is located. Spend some time experimenting with the
volume levels, and adjust each speaker so that you can
clearly hear the radio, CD and intercom. Use the following
procedures to set your system’s volume levels.
1. At each remote station, turn the VOLUME control
completely clockwise to maximum volume.
At the master station, set the

until you have ample volume at the remote station that
requires the highest volume (i.e. a large living room, family
room, basement, etc.)
PLEASE NOTE: The master station and all remote stations

SETTING INTERNAL INTERCOM VOLUME
CONTROL
The internal intercom volume control has been factory set for
optimum intercom operation. Should the intercom gain need
to be adjusted beyond the range of the Intercom Volume
Control behind the left front door, use the following procedure:
1. Refer to Figure 27. Using a thin-blade screwdriver, adjust
the internal control counter-clockwise as viewed from the
rear of the master station panel. This adjustment will
reduce the intercom gain.
2. To increase the intercom gain, turn the internal control
clockwise.

SETTING THE BEEP TONE LEVEL
The internal BEEP tone volume control has been factory set
to a normal level for the BEEP tone to be heard when the CD
Player operation is initiated from a remote station by using
the AM/FM/CD CONTROL/END CALL key. Should that level
require adjustment, use the following procedure:
1. Refer to Figure 28. Using a thin-blade screwdriver, adjust
the BEEP TONE volume control counter-clockwise as
viewed from the rear of the master station panel to reduce
the BEEP level.
2. To increase the BEEP level, turn the control clockwise.

DIAGNOSTIC TESTS
The following diagnostic tests have been incorporated into
the NuTone IMA-4406 master station to assist in system
troubleshooting.
• Master station keyboard test
• Remote station control voltage test
• Display test

Pressing the MEMORY SET key will end the current
diagnostic test.
3. The current diagnostic test will end after one minute of
inactivity.
PLEASE NOTE: An incorrect voltage caused
by miswiring, shorted wiring or a defective
remote station may cause the radio and/or CD
Player to turn off/on, thus preventing the unit
from entering the diagnostic mode. Should this
occur, the master station’s control timer will stop
the on/off cycling after 30 seconds.
Remote Station Keyboard Test – Verifies that all keys on
the master station are functioning properly. To activate: Press

NOTE: Pressing the END CALL, DOOR TALK, or
INSIDE/PATIO keys at the master station will not change the
voltage on the control line. If a remote station does not
produce a voltage within the above window for a specific
intercom function, check the following:
• Make sure all connections from the master station are
properly installed at the terminal board.
• Check IW-6 connections at the master station terminal
board and at each remote station.
• Confirm that the suspect remote station functions properly
by replacing it with a known good remote station.

intercom audio becomes weak and distorted, remove power from the
master station for 10 minutes; this will reset the protective device. If
the audio returns to normal, the remote speaker wiring and remote
