Introduction
Introduction
The RTS MCII-e System controller card is the third generation controller for the ADAM Intercom System. Designed to
replace the ADAM-MC, it adds a number of key features. Adding Ethernet connectivity between the ADAM Intercom and the
PC running AZedit, the new controller can support up to 35 simultaneous AZedit sessions (32 using Ethernet and up to 3 using
serial ports). Using a pair of MCII-e controller cards will provide full redundancy with seamless automatic change-over upon
failure.
The speed of Ethernet, combined with expanded memory, allows the card to fully support large matrices with reduced setup
file download time.
As with all ADAM™ Intercom family products, the MCII-e card supports all standard, hot-swappable, and configurable
features through the AZedit configuration software. It is fully compatible with existing ADAM systems and cards, including
AIO-8, AIO-16, AES-3, and RVON VOIP interfaces
*The New MCII-e System Controller card is only for use in the ADAM Matrix Intercom System and cannot be intermixed with older ADAM
master controllers in a given frame.
Features
Installation:The MCII-e System Controller card is hot-swappable and installs into slots 19 or 20 in an
ADAM™ Intercom System.
®
Trunk Capable:The MCII-e System Controller card supports ancillary data control for use with Telex
Trunking.
Ethernet Compatible:Fully Ethernet capable. The MCII-e provides a single RJ-45 connection for use with a 10BASE-T
or 100BASE-TX compliant and network. Each system contro ller ha s its own IP address network
access.
AZedit Configurations:The MCII-e can connect to AZedit via Ethernet or Serial (RS-232) connections. Also, the new
Intercom Sizing Wizard in AZedit makes configuring the new system controller card easier than
ever.
Controls:Reset push-button switch, general indicators, an LED module for advanced monitoring features and
for gathering additional card information.

Gives (in binary) the
slot number (1-19) of
the card that the MC
is currently talking with
over the control bus.
Or when all the LEDs are
off, the MC isn’t
talking to a card over
the control bus.
This changes rapidly in
normal operation.
The rest of the green LEDs
show which IO cards are
alive.
For example,
23 = I/O Card in Slot 16 is alive and talking
...
10 = I/O Card in Slot 3 is alive and talking
9 = I/O Card in Slot 2 is alive and talking
8 = I/O Card in Slot 1 is alive and talking
NOTE: There is no LED for I/O card in slot 17.
ON, if acting as the active controller. OFF, if acting as standby.
