and holding the key during the conversation. There is also an electronic latching feature that lets
you tap intercom keys to turn them on or off. This permits convenient hands-free conversation.
However it can also result in a talk circuit being left on unintentionally. For example, a key that
talks to a public address system could be accidentally left on. Or an IFB key (a type of key
assignment that is often used by a director or producer to give instructions to a listener, such as a
news anchor during a tele vision broadcast) could accidentally be left on, causing confusion for
the IFB lis tener. To prevent such accidents, the latching feature can be turned off. the latching
feature can also be turned on/off using ADAMedit or ZEUSedit software. Please refer to the
respective help file to use this feature.
DIP Sw itc h 6
Open: Default setting. 6-bit English protocol enabled.
Closed: 8-bit Katakana protocol enabled.
Description: Selects the type of protocol used for communications. The default 6-bi t protocol
allows the display of English language characters. The optional 8-bit Katakana protocol allows
the display of Japanese language characters.
DIP Sw itc h 7
Open: Default setting. Half-duplex communication disabled.
Closed: Half-duplex communication enabled.
Description: When closed the audio flowing in and out of the keypanel is in half-duplex
mode.When a talk key is depressed, audio coming in to the speaker/headphone is cut off.
Incoming audio is enabled as soon as the talk key is released. This application is seldom used.
DIP Sw itc h 8
Open: Default setting for MKP-4, BKP-4, TKP-4 and WKP-4. Map keys as xKP-4 series.
Closed: Default setting for MKP-12. Map keys as MKP-12.
Description: When clo sed the four keys normally present in the xKP-4 series are remapped to the
left most keys on the MKP-12 keypanel. If this switch is in the open position on an MKP-12 the
keys will appear as 9-12 on the panel. This function corrects mapping differences between the
xKP-4 series, MKP-12, and how they relate to ZEUSedit.
Address Switch
NOTE
In Zeus, ADAM CS, and ADAM intercom systems, intercom ports are arranged in groups of 8.
Within each group, each keypanel is uniquely identified by its Address switch setting.
The Address switch has a white pointer which points to the current switch setting. Determine the
proper setting as follows:
Important!
Always reset the keypanel after changin g the Address swit ch sett ing. Do this by br iefl y removing
power to the keypanel.
NOTE
Address switch settings 0, and 9 through F are not used in ZEUS, ADAM, or ADAM CS systems.
2-5
Zeus Intercom Systems: Intercom port connectors on the Zeus back panel are arranged in three
groups of eight intercom ports. For each group, intercom port connectors are labeled ID 1, ID 2,
etc. When you connect a keypanel to Zeus, set the keypanel Address switch to match the
corresponding ID number on the Zeus back panel.
ADAM CS Intercom Systems: Each Audio I/O card contains 1 group of 8 intercom ports.
However, the method of breaking out the groups depends on the type of connectors on the back
panel. To determine the keypanel Address switch setting, use the planning worksheets in the
ADAM CS Installation Manual. These are located near the back of the Installation Manual:
ADAM CS with RJ12 or DB-9 back panel: You can determine the keypanel add ress from the
worksheets in either of two ways:
1 If you know the port number that a keypanel will be connected to, look up the port number
in the worksheet, then read across to the appropriate logical keypanel number for that port
number. Use that number to set the keypanel Address switch.
2 If you know the connector number (on the back of the ADAM CS frame) that the keypanel
will be connected to, look up that c onnector number in the workshe et, then read across to t he
appropriate logical keypanel number. Use that number to set the keypanel Address switch.
ADAM CS frame with 50-pin Telco back panel: You can determine the keypanel address
from the worksheet in either of two ways:
1 If you know the port number that a keypanel will be connected to, look up the port number
in the worksheet, then read across to the appropriate logical keypanel number for that port
number. Use that number to set the keypanel Address switch.
2 If you know the connector numbers and pi n numbers t hat the keypanel will be con nected to,
look up these numbers in the works heet, th en read acros s to the appropr iate logica l keypane l
number. Use that number to set the keypanel Address switch.
ADAM Intercom Systems: Each Audio I/O contains 1 group of 8 intercom ports pe r card.
However, the individual int ercom po rts may be brok en out using v ari ous t ypes of breako ut pane ls
or punch blocks, and groups may not be easily identified. It may be easier to set the keypanel
Address switch using the actual intercom port numbers. To do this, refer to Table 2.1. Locate the
intercom port number to which the keypanel will be connected. Then, read across to the
“Address” column to find the Address number. Set the keypanel Address switch to this number.
Important!
The MKP-4, BKP-4, TKP-4, WKP-4 and MKP-12 keypanels can support ADAM systems up to
two frames in size

INTERCOM KEY OPERATION
Momentary vs . Latching Operation
For momentary key activ ation, pr ess and hold an i ntercom k ey. For l atching oper ation, t ap the key
to turn it on , and tap it ag ain to turn it off.
NOTES
• If the LED next to a key does not turn on when the key it activated, this means the key is not
currently assigned.
• The electronic latchi ng feature (DIP switch 5) must be enabled in order to use latching. See
Section 2 for details.
Intercom Key Operat ion for Di fferen t Types of Key Assignm ent s
Basic Talk and/or Listen Key Operation: The down position activates talk (if assigned). The up
position activates listen (if assigned). Talk and listen may be latched on or off independently by
tapping up or down.
NOTE
The following paragraphs describe special types of key assignments called special functions.
These types of key assignments can only be set up using the ADAMedit or ZEUSedit software,
and they are described in detail in the software help file. To find out if a key has a special function
assignment, you can display the key's assignment as described under “Displaying Key
Assignments”. If a special function is assigned to a listen key, you will see AF, or AL, etc. when
you display the key assignment.
Talk+Auto-follow (AF) List en Key Assignment: This key assignment works the same as the
basic talk/listen key assignment: The down position activates talk, and the up position activates
listen. Talk and listen may be turned on or off independently by pressing up or down.
Talk+Auto-listen (AL) Listen Key Assignment: The down position activates both talk and
listen. However, only the talk LED will turn on. If talk is on, you cannot turn off listen. If talk is
off, you can turn listen on independently by pressing up.
Talk+Auto-mute (AM) Listen Key Assignment: The down position activa tes talk. And, if li sten
is on, it automatically turns off until talk is released. When talk is off, listen may be turned on
independently by pressing up.
Talk+Auto-reciprocal (AR) List en Key Assignment: The down position activates talk. Listen
is always on and continuously monitors whatever is assigned to the ta lk position.
All Call (AC) Talk Key Assignment: When a ta lk key is assigned as an All Call key, it operate s
only as a switch to turn on or off all talk keys to the left of the All Call key. These other talk keys
will then activate according to the way they have been assig ned. Note th at will also affect any
listen keys that have been assigned with special functions. For example, an auto listen key will
also activate if its corresponding talk key has been activated by an All Call key.
Intercom Key Indications
T alk Indicator:
• Solid green: Talk is activated.
• Green flashing “incoming call” indication: The person assigned to the key is calling. Activate
the key to talk back.
• Continuous red “in use” indication: An “in-use” indication is provided for an IFB or ISO key.
It is also provided for a key that talks to a remote int ercom system (wh en your intercom sys tem
4-3
is equipped with optional trunking). The “in-use” indication warns you that someone else is
currently talking.
• Red flashing “busy” indication: May occur when a key is activated to talk to an IFB or a
remote intercom system. This indicates that some other keypanel with a higher priority is
currently talking and you cannot talk at this time.
Listen Indicator:
• Solid green: Listen is act ivate d. (This indica tion will on ly be provide d when you manua lly turn
listen on by tapping or pressing upward on a key. It will not occur if li sten has been
automatically activated during talk.)
CALL WAITING OPERATION FOR INCOMING CA LLS
As previously describ ed, the talk indicator for a key will flash when there is an incoming call to
that key, and you may activate that key to talk back. Also, if DIP switch 1 was set to the Open
position, the cal ler' s name will appear in the c all wa itin g window, and you may press down o n the
call waiting key instead to talk back. If a caller is not already assigned to an intercom key, the
caller's name will always appear in the call waiting window, and you must use only the call
waiting key to talk back.
If a second call is received in the call wait ing window while a caller's name is already displayed
there, the call waiting display will start to flash. Also, the topmost LED next to the call waiting
key will turn on. When there are mu ltiple calls, use the call w aiting key as follows:
1 To talk to the currently displayed caller, press down on the call waiting key.
2 To clear the currently displayed caller name, briefly tap up on the call waiting key. The next
caller's name will then appear in the call waiting window, and you may press down on the call
waiting key to talk back.
3 Continue talking to callers and clearing their names until the call waiting window displays
dashes (no callers). Also, when all calls have been answered, the green LED next to the ca ll
waiting key will turn off.
OPERA TION WITH THE TIF-951 & TIF-2000 TELEPHONE INTERF ACE
If DIP switch 3 (see Section 2) is set to the Closed position, you can use the keypanel to answer
incoming telephone calls that have been received by the TIF-951 or TIF-2000. A talk and listen
key pair on the keypa nel must be as signed to talk/listen to the TIF-951 or TI F-2000 as previously
described. Use the assigned keys as follows:
1 Leave the talk and listen keys in the off position, except when answering a call.
2 When there is an incoming pho ne call, the talk indicator will flash red. Acti vat e t he t alk key to
talk back. You may also have to activate the li sten key.
3 When the conversation is finished, turn the keys off.
Important!
The keypanel does not hang up t he phone line wh en yo u turn t he keys off. Usua lly t he TIF-9 51 or
TIF-2000 does this by detecting when the caller has hung up. However, this may not be possible
in some phone syst ems, and the TIF-951 or TIF-2000 may remain o ff hook. In this case you must
manually disconnect using the OFF switch on the front of the TIF-951 or TIF-2000.
NOTE
Unless there is a n incomi ng cal l to answer, activ ating a key o n the keyp anel that is a ssign ed to t he
