Unpacking the Components
Unpack the contents of the shipping crates and carefully inspect for damage. Notify the freight carrier immediately if any
damage is noted. Check off all items as noted in the packing lists.
SAFETY TIP: Use caution when lifting the system components. A fully loaded ADAM Card Frame, for example, weighs
approximately 75 lbs (34kg).
Mounting the Central Matrix Components
Bolt the ADAM Card Frame into the front of the equipment rack. The frame has no special ventilation requirements, but make
sure the ventilation holes on the front and back are unobstructed. The rack space behind the ADAM Card Frame should be
kept completely clear to allow for connections and the insertion and removal of back cards (at least 2 feet).
Note, there is an LED fail indicator and reset switch located near the top-front of each front card. The LED indicators are only
visible when the center of the card frame is at or above eye level.
Station Breakout Panels and Translation Panels are usually mounted in the back of the equipment rack, and are generally
arranged to allow intercom station cabling to exit the frame at the top or bottom, as required.
Optional UIO-256 Frames should be mounted in the front of an equipment rack. When positioning a UIO-256, consideration
should be given to the visibility of the front panel LEDs, which provide visual indication for any active inputs and outputs.
Optional Program Assign Panels should be mounted in the front of an equipment rack. Generally, a PAP should be located
slightly below eye height when sitting or standing to allow for viewing of the front panel indicators and easy activat ion of the
front panel controls.
ADAM Circuit Cards
Front Card Access
Loosen the thumbscrews that secure the front glass door, and swing the door down.

Introduction
Card Removal and Installation
All ADAM circuit cards can be “hot-installed”, which means you do not have to turn the power OFF before installing or
removing a card. This permits continuous operation of the intercom system - with no interruptions to unaffected ports - in the
event of a card failure.
READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLING CIRCUIT CARDS!
The connector pins on the back plane inside the ADAM frame can be easily damaged by improper or hurried insertion of the
circuit cards. Always use the following procedure when inserting cards:
1. Begin installation with the back card. Orient the card so the edge connector is toward the bottom.
2. Insert the card edges into the upper and lower guides in the back of the ADAM frame. Push the card in until the mounting
plate is flush with the ADAM frame.
3. Install mounting screws in the top and bottom of the card plate to lock it in place.
4. When installing a front card, orient it so the indicator LED and reset switch are at the top-front.
5. Insert the card edges into the upper and lower card guides in the front of the ADAM frame.
6. SLOWLY push the front card straight into the slot until initial resistance is felt.
7. When initial resistance is felt, apply slightly more pressure to begin engaging the connector pins.
8. Once the connector pins have started to engage, press FIRMLY to completely seat the connectors. When the card is
properly seated, the card mounting plate should be flush with the ADAM frame.
9. Mount screws for the front cards are not required, but are recommended for mobile installations.
T o remo ve a front card, press down on t he lower ejector lever and up on the upper ejector lever. Once the card is released from
the back plane connector, pull it straight out of the frame.
To remove a back card, first release the front card by pressing the ejector levers, then remove the back card.
IMPORTANT: All system clock signals are derived from the Audio Input/Output (AIO) Card in slot number 9, with clock
backup in slot number 8. Therefore, if your intercom system uses fewer than ten AIO Cards, make sure that slots 8 and 9 are
filled in any case. Also, never remove cards 8 and 9 at the same time as the intercom system will cease to operate.
NOTE: When a front or back audio card is removed, the displays on any keypanel connected to that card will display asterisks
instead of the normal key assignments. After a card is reinstalled, it may take a minute or two for the keypanel displays to
return to normal.
Unused Back Card Slots
To ensure proper air flow, each unused back card slot should be fitted with a card blank (p/n 9000-7467-003) to cover the
opening.
Master Controller Card DIP Switches
As shipped from the factory, all master controller card DIP switches are set to the default operation position. These settings
will be satisfactory for most applications. Optional settings are summarized in Table 1 on page 11 or T able 2 on page 12. If any
changes are made to the settings, make sure both the main and backup controller cards are set the same.
Power Supply Removal and Installation
Place the power switch on the front of the power supply in the OFF (O) position before removal. Loosen the two captive
thumbscrews on the front of the power supply, then grasp the screws to pull the power supply out.
4
AC Power Connection
T o install a power supply, set the power switch on the front of the supply to the OFF position. Push the power supply firmly
into the slot in the ADAM frame so that the connector sits properly in the slot, then tighten the captive screws.
AC Power Connection
1. Place the AC switches on the back panel of the ADAM frame in the OFF (O) position.
2. Place the power supply ON/OFF switch on the front of each power supply in the OFF (O) position.
3. Connect AC power to both of the AC jacks on the back of the ADAM Frame.
Connecting both AC inputs will assure continued operations of the ADAM Frame in the event that one power supply fails.
If desired, two separate AC power phases may be connected. This will protect not only against a power supply failure, but
also against a loss of power to one phase.
ADAM Frame Power-Up
NOTE: For proper power supply loading, at least two front cards should be installed in the frame before turning on the power
supplies.
1. Place the AC switches on the back of the ADAM Frame in the ON position.
2. Place the ALARM OVERRIDE switch on the front panel in the ON position.
The alarm should sound while the power supplies are OFF.
3. Place the ON/OFF switch on the front of each power supply in the ON position.
The POWER GOOD indicators and all voltage indicators should light. The fans should turn ON. The alarm should shut
off.
While the intercom system is initializing, the red LED fail indicators will be lit on all circuit cards. Allow 15 to 30 seconds for
all indicators to turn OFF.
Circuit Card Reset and Fail Indication
Each front card is equipped with a reset button located near the top-front of the card. Directly under the reset button is the red
LED fail indicator. The LED indicator remains OFF during normal operation. If the fail indicator turns ON, first attempt to
restore normal operation by momentarily pressing the reset button. Allow 15 to 30 seconds for reset. If the fail indicat or does
not turn OFF after this time, replace the affected card.
Alarm Operation
If there is a power supply fault during operation, the audible alarm will sound and one or more indicator lights on the affected
power supply will turn OFF. To deactivate the alarm, set the ALARM OVERRIDE switch to the OFF position. Turn OFF the
defective power supply , and repair or replace it as soon as possible to assure continued backup protection in the event of
another power supply failure.
NOTE: The power supply alarm will also sound if a power supply is turned OFF. This is normal. Either turn ON the power
supply, or turn OFF the ALARM OVERRIDE switch.

CHAPTER 2
Inter com Port Connections
General Information
Typically, devices are connected to individual intercom ports using Station Breakout Panels as shown in the in the drawings
starting on page 33. Depending on the type of breakout panels being used, the individual intercom stations will utilize either
RJ-11 modular style intercom cables, or 9-pin D-sub cables. Wiring diagrams for both are shown in the Figure 22, “Intercom
Station Cables,” on page 54.
Each intercom port supplies two pins for audio input, two for audio output, and two for data. All audio connections are
balanced, dry lines. All audio inputs and outputs are set for unity gain by default: whatever level is applied at an input will be
supplied at the output. Input and output levels may be adjusted for individual ports, if required. This may be accomplished
either from AZedit or from individual keypanels.
Various types of intercom stations are generally connected to the intercom ports, but other types of audio devices could also be
connected. For example, a program source could be connected to the audio input for an intercom port, and in this case the
audio output pins are available for other functions.
The data wires for an intercom port are used to send and receive control information between the connected device and the
ADAM AIO card. The data wires are only used by keypanels, by the TIF (Telephone Interface), and by CDP-950 Camera
Delegate Panel. The type of data transmitted includes key press information and display information. For example, when a key
is pressed on a keypanel, this information is sent on the data wires to the ADAM frame. The AIO card talks to the Master
Controller, the ADAM frame then makes the necessary talk and listen connections so that a conversation can take place. It also
sends data to the device being called; for example, to display the caller’s name at a keypanel, or to activate a telephone line at
a TIF interface.
Logical Keypanel Numbers
Even though separate data pins are provided for each intercom port, these pins do not actually represent a unique data port.
Rather, groups of intercom ports share a common data port. In an ADAM intercom system, data groups consist of 8 intercom
ports, and each Audio Input/Output card represents 1 data group. To distinguish between devices connected to the same data
group, a “Logical Keypanel Number” (1 through 8) is assigned to each device at the time of connection. The relationship
between intercom port numbers, Audio I/O Cards and Logical Keypanel Numbers is shown in Table 3 on page 13. Specific
information about setting Logical Keypanel Numbers is discussed further in the installation notes on the following pages.
NOTE: AIO-16 Cards consist of 16 ports per card, double the number of ports the AIO card contains. Also, the AIO-16 is a
“smart card”, which means when it is inserted into an ADAM frame, it automatically figures the back card configuration and
protocols being used. The AIO-16, unlike the AIO-8, is not constrained by logical keypanel numbers or addresses completely,
because each port has its own data driver.

Intercom Port Connections
General Procedure for Connecting Devices to the Intercom
The following is a suggested method for planning the intercom system and connecting devices to intercom ports:
• Make a copy of the Intercom System Planning Worksheet, see Table 10 on page 17. (Or create your own custom tables
using your favorite spreadsheet or database program).
• For each device that will be connected, fill in a row in the worksheet.
• Breifly note, the device type (keypanel, beltpack, TIF, program source, CDP-950, etc.). Other useful information might
include the device location and usage, as well as any labeling on the intercom cable.
• Write down the name (either 4, 6, or 8-characters) in the AZedit Alpha column of the worksheet. You will enter this name
into the intercom system later, using AZedit. Then, whenever you assign the port to an intercom key, the name will appear
in the keypanel display for that key.
NOTE: In earlier versions of AZedit, a port had a single alpha representing both the audio input, and audio output portions
of the port. For keypanels, where both the input and output refer to the same device, this made sense, However, in other
applications, the input and output paths of the port would often be used for different purposes (eg. IFB program inputs or
listen sources on the input side, and an IFB output on the output side).
In versions 2.06 or higher, it is now possible to give separate alphas to both the input and output portions of a port (by
default, the input alpha tracks the output alpha unless you explicitly change the input alpha, so that normally they are the
same which would be typical for ports with keypanels attached).
• If the Intercom System is trunked (interconnected) to another intercom system, a second name may be recorded in the
“AZedit Alias” column of the worksheet, if desired. This name will also be entered using AZedit. An alias may be useful,
for example, to prevent conflicts when the same alpha name is already being used in both intercom systems. When the
intercom port is assigned to a keypanel key in the external intercom system, the alias name appears in the display above
that key. If you do not enter an alias name, AZedit will automatically use the alpha name as the default.
• Connect devices to the intercom ports as noted in the worksheet. Refer to any installation notes included below for the type
of device being connected.
• Run AZedit and enter the AZedit Alpha and Alias names as listed in the worksheet.
• Complete the intercom system configuration.
KP-12 Installation Notes
Use either FRAME connector (but not both) on the back of the keypanel to connect to an intercom port at a Station Breakout
Panel.
For more information on Breakout Panels, see the Breakout Panel Resource Guide (p/n LIT00061-000)
T o connect to an expansion panel, use the cable supplied with the expansion panel. Connect for the EXPANSION connector of
the KP-12 to either CONTROL connector on the expansion panel. The remaining CONTROL connector may be used to
connect a second expansion panel.
Plug in the AC power cords for the KP-12 and any connected expansion panels, and turn ON the power.
When the KP-12 is connected and turned ON for the first time, the call waiting window will display “SET ADDR”. Tap the
SELECT control. “ADDR 1” should appear in the call waiting window (logical keypanel address number 1). Turn the
SELECT control to display the correct logical keypanel address number, then tap SELECT again. After a few moments the
alphanumeric displays should change from asterisks (****) to dashes (----).
When the KP-12’s keypanel is initially set, it is automatically saved. Unlike KP-9x series keypanels, no power-off reset is
required to change the intercom port number.

KP-32 Installation Notes
Refer to the KP-12 User Manual (p/n 9350-7497-001) for complete user information.
KP-32 Installation Notes
Use either FRAME connector (but not both) on the back of the keypanel to connect to an intercom port at a Station Breakout
Panel.
• To connect an expansion panel, use the cable supplied with the expansion panel. Connect from the EXPANSION connector
of the KP-32 to either the CONTROL connector on the expansion panel.
• Plug in the external power supply, provided with the KP-32, into the power connector and then into the AC power cord.
Addressing the KP-32
Each KP-32 keypanel is uniquely identified on the data port by setting the rotary address switch (see KP-32 Addressing on
page 15).
Refer to the KP-32 Keypanel User Manual (9350-7656-000) for complete user instructions.
Program Source Notes
External audio program sources can be connected to intercom inputs, but all sources must be DC isolated. The audio output
and data pins for the port are not used. Nominal input level is +8 dBu.
NOTE: If program inputs will be assigned using a Program Assign Panel (PAP), they must be connected to specific ports of
the intercom system. See “Program Assign Panel (PAP) Installation” on page 21.
TIF Telephone Interface Installation Notes
Rear Panel DIP Switch (S201)
The rear panel DIP Switch contains switches to configure the most often changed options. These include: auto-answer ON/
OFF, ring signal ON/OFF, password ON/OFF, intercom port address, and full duplex method.
Password Required
Turning ON the password required option sets the unit so when a call is automatically answered, the user must enter a
password via DTMF before the unit will allow communications. The password numeric sequence and length are determined
by the settings of S203 internal DIP switch.
Intercom Port Address
Switches 4 to 7 determine the address of the unit. The port address is expressed in binary with switch 4 being the least
significant bit (LSB) and switch 7 being the most significant bit (MSB). For more information, see Table 4 on page 14.
9
Intercom Port Connections
Connections
INTERCOM- Use either of the “To Matrix” connectors (but not both) to connect to an intercom port. The intercom port that you
connect to will determine the address of the unit. An LED labeled “Data’ is located next to the Matrix connectors and serves as a
basic indicator.
TELEPHONE and TELEPHONE LINE- There are two telephone connections provided on the rear of the TIF system. Plug the
telephone line into the jack labeled “To Phone Line”. You may also plug a standard telephone into the jack labeled “Loop Thru”.
NOTE: The telephone plugged into the “Loop Thru” jack is disconnected when the TIF seizes the telephone line.
POWER SUPPLY - Insert the round connector from the brick type power supply into the power connector on the rear of the TIF>
Turn the locking ring on the connector to secure the connection. Plug the female end of the IEC type power cord into the power
supply and then plug the other end into an appropriate power outlet.
For more detailed installation instructions, see the TIF User Manual.
CDP-950 Camera Delegate Panel Installation Notes
CDP-950 General Description
The CDP-950 provides a means of quickly and easily assigning ports to any of 4 party lines. In an ADAM intercom system, up to 8
ports can be controlled from the CDP-950.
CDP-950 Theory of Operation
The CDP-950 connects to the data port for an intercom group by connecting it to the data pins for any port in the group. It can either
be connected along with an intercom station, or it can be connected to a port by itself. Once connected, the CDP-950 controls all 9
ports in the group. Or, it can be set to control less than 8 ports, leaving the remaining ports free to be used by other data devices.
For each port, the CDP-950 provides the equivalent of 4 keypanel keys. The keys a rearranged in a column, and are labeled “PL1”
through “PL4”. There are 10 columns of keys, labeled “CAM1” through “CAM10”, but columns 9 and 10 are not used in ADAM
intercom system.
Once the CDP-950 has been connected and the range of intercom stations that control has been set, the front panel keys may be
assigned like any other keypanel keys. Since the CDP-950 is primarily intended for assigning ports to various party lines, the keys
are generally assigned to party lines, but they do not have to be. For example, a key could be assigned to talk to a specific person, if
desired. Unlike most keypanels, which typically have a separate talk and listen assignments. When a key is activated, the intercom
station which is connected to the audio lines for the corresponding port can talk and/or listen to the selected destination.
During normal operation, all 4 keys for a port may be activated simultaneously, if desired. However, during critical
communications, it may be desirable to temporarily disable all non-essential communications. The CDP-950 has an “isolate” option
which permits this. This option is selectable via an internal DIP switch. When the “isolate” option is activated, the PL4 keys
function as “ISO” keys. Pressing a PL4 key will activate its talk/listen assignment, and at the same time, it will disable the PL1
through PL3 keys directly above it. When the ISO key is turned OFF, the previous state of the other three keys will be restored. This
ISO feature is selectable using an internal DIP switch in the CDP-950.
The following procedures describe the installation and programming of the CDP-950 for use in an ADAM intercom system:
10
CDP-950 Camera Delegate Panel Installation Notes
Installing the CDP-950
1. Before installing the CDP-950, remove the top cover and set the internal DIP Switches:
DIP #1Normal/ISO Select
Closed:Normal Operation
Open:ISO Operation
DIP #2Baud Rate Select
Closed:9600 baud
Open:76,800 baud (Do not use for ADAM)
DIP #3Not Used (position does not matter)
DIP #4 - #8Intercom range select (see Table 4 on page 14 for settings.)
2. Connect the CDP-950 to the data for any one of the intercom ports that will be controlled. Several possible cable wiring
diagrams are shown in Figure 22 on page 54
3. Connect beltpacks, camera intercoms, etc. to the audio input and output pins or each intercom port controlled by the
CDP-950.
Programming the CDP-950
Run AZedit and assign the CDP-950 keys just as you would normal keypanel keys. For each intercom port, the PL1 through
PL4 keys on the CDP-950 correspond to keys 1 through 4 in the AZedit key assignment table.
NOTE: When a key is activated, both the talk and listen assignment for that key will activate.

a. Always set the DIP switches the same on both the main and backup controller cards.
b. The default setting of 9600 baud is compatible with the default setting for the AZedit configuration software. Alternatively, 38.4k
baud will provide faster uploads and downloads, but the cable from the ADAM Frame to the PC must be kept to a length less than
10ft (3m), and some older PCs may not operate reliably at this speed.
c. Normally, when a call is received by a keypanel, the keypanel checks for a talk key assigned to the caller. If there is no talk key
assigned, the display above that key will flash. If no key is assigned, the caller’s name will appear in the Incoming Messages
window. Some intercom systems may have many keypanels that do not have alpha-numeric displays. In this case, it may be
preferable to have all callers names appear in the Incoming Messages window.
d. The in-use flash is indicated by a slow and continuous flashing display above a keypanel talk key. It is provided for IFBs, ISOs and
trunk lines. It occurs, for example, on all keypanels that have keys assigned to a particular IFB, when that IFB is in-use by any
keypanel.The displays will continue to flash until the IFB is no longer in-use. Any user could activate their talk key to talk to the IFB
while the display is flashing, but they may interrupt a conversation that is in progress.
The busy flash is indicated by a display that alternates between the normal key assignment and a double asterisk (**) when the talk
key is pressed. A “busy” flash occurs when a keypanel tries to talk to an IFB or trunk line that is currently in-use by another
keypanel that has a higher IFB or trunking priority . When a busy flash is indicated, the user cann ot talk to the destination assigned to
the talk key.
e. 38.4K baud is the normal data rate for communication with a local trunk mast. 9600 baud may be selected when the intercom system
is connected to a remote trunk master over some form of long-distance connection (modems, partial T1, etc.). However, expect large
response delays when using 9600 baud. If this is not acceptable, other methods of connection using additional equipment may be
required.
f. Set to ON only for Altera chip versions 4.1 and higher. Provides enhanced error correction for the bus clock. Leave in OFF position
