CHANGING THE IP PROPERTIES ON YOUR PC .............................................................. 57
Introducing a totally re-engineered Zeus Intercom System—Zeus III is the next generation of small intercom system units,
giving smaller systems more options for their intercom configurations. We; now have 32 channels IN/OUT and two (2)
configurable party-line channels. This system is excellent for smaller installations, as well as OB (Outside Broadcast) vans. Its
compact size is perfect for small environments with limited space. With the addition of Ethernet, the Zeus III can be
configured from virtually anywhere on the network using AZedit Intercom software. Alternatively, the Zeus III can be directly
connected to AZedit through the use of the USB connector on the front panel. The Zeus II’s 24 DB-9 connectors have been
replaced with 32, RJ-45 connectors.
Features
Redundant Power Supplies The unit comes with two (2) completely independent power supplies powered from
separate AC (Alternating Current) feeds. Because of the extremely low power
consumption, the use of UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) units is possible.
USB PortThe USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is used for the AZedit Intercom software system
configuration.
Trunk CapableUsing the dedicated DB-9 trunk connector with standard RS485 protocol, the Zeus III is
able to communicate in a trunked system.
10 Additional Audio ChannelsExpanding on the Zeus II’s 24-channel unit, we have added 10 additional audio channels
to the Zeus III; eight (8) channels of audio IN and OUT, as well as two (2) channels that
can be configured for party line use. The two (2) party-line channels interface two separate
2-wire lines to 4-wire lines. From the front panel, it can be configured for RTS, Audiocom
(Balanced), or ClearCom (Unbalanced) mode.
Remote Configuration With the addition of Ethernet to the Zeus III unit, you can now remotely configure your
Zeus III intercom system using the AZedit Intercom System software.
Dynamic Keypanel Addressing Zeus III now automatically addresses keypanels when they are connected to
the Zeus III frame. This eliminates the need for setting keypanel addresses and
maintaining port allocations.
Relays New relay connection supports Relay 1 and Relay 2.
Simultaneous DownloadFaster downloads to multiple ports supporting the same type of keypanels.

Status LEDs
When the Zeus III powers on each time, the Status LED, located on the front panel (see Figure 2), cycle through a three (3)
color sequence as it verifies the Zeus III is working properly. The LED color cycle starts with Red, goes to Orange, and ends
with Green.
Red - System Malfunction
Orange -Boot Load Mode
NOTE: If Switch S1-7 is set to ON (Force Boot Loader Mode, see Table 9 on page 20) and the Zeus III unit is
powered on, the LED stays at the Orange level of the color cycle, indicating you are in boot loader
mode.

CH A and CH B 2W/Party Line LEDs and Controls
The CH A and CH B 2W/Party Line LEDs and Controls are used to configure dual-channel party line interface. Ports 33
and 34 in the intercom system are designated as the 2-wire party line channels. For more information on party line operation,
see “Party Line Operation” on page 45.
FIGURE 3. CH A and CH B 2W/Party Line LEDs and Controls
Peak LED Indicator
The Peak LED indicator displays if the party line channel or 2-wire channel is operating within the normal operating levels.
•When the level is less than -12dBu, the LED is off.
•When the level is between -12dBu to 1dBu, the LED is green.
•When the level is greater than 1dBu, the LED is red.
2-Wire Mode Rotary Switch
The 2-Wire Mode Rotary Switch is used to select the 2-wire mode you want to configure your party line channel.
Available options are:
OFF -No modes are active
1 - RTS Channel 1 mode
2 - RTS Channel 2 mode
Audiocom (Balanced) - Audiocom Mode
ClearCom (Unbalanced) - ClearCom mode. Unbalanced with DC call
To change the 2-Wire Mode, do the following:
1.Using a flathead screwdriver, insert the head into the rotary switch slot.
2.Turn the flathead screwdriver until the arrow is pointing to the mode you desire.
The corresponding green LED (to the right) lights, designating your selection.
2-Wire Mode LED Indicators
The 2-Wire Mode LED indicators signal which 2-wire mode is currently active. When a mode is active, the green LED next
to it lights.

Power 1 and Power 2 LED
The Zeus III has two (2) power supplies powered by independent AC feeds. This allows for full power failover protection if
one of the power supplies stops working.
Green LEDs located on the front panel (see Figure 4) indicates whether the power supply is working properly or is broken.
•When the green LED is lit, the power supply is working properly.
•When the green LED is not lit, the power supply is not working properly.

General Purpose Interface (GPI) Connector
The GPI connector provides eight (8) general purpose control outputs. The control inputs can be assigned, using AZedit, to
activate intercom ports, party lines, etc. The control outputs can also be assigned, using AZedit, to be activated by keypanel
keys. The control outputs can be used to control lighting, to key remote transmitter, to activate a paging system, etc.
Connections
The GPI inputs require +5 to +12VDC for activation. Figure 5 shows a typical connection. The GPI outputs are open collector
outputs and require an external voltage to operate. These output pull to common when activated (Figure 6 shows a typical
connection). Pin outs for the GPI inputs and outputs are summarized in Table 8.

1. Make sure the rate set here matches the rate set in AZedit. A 9600 baud permits a longer PC cable, but uploads and downloads are
slower (approximately 30 seconds for a complete system update). Alternatively, 38.4 kbaud provides faster uploads and downloads,
but the PC cable should be kept to a length less than 10 ft (3m), and some older PC's may not operate reliably at this speed.
