12 Introduction T2004 Multi-Control Head System Manual

2 System Overview

The T2004 Multi-Control Head system allows the use of between one and
five control heads with a single T2020 or T2040 radio. The control heads
are configured as one Primary and up to four Secondary. The Primary
control head is the only one which controls the radio’s power, as well as
power to each Secondary control head, otherwise the functionality of all the
control heads is the same. Advantages: radio to control head length able to
be greater than the standard 6m cable.

The Multi-Control Head system consists of two kits, designed to connect to
your existing Series II T2020 or T2040 radio and T2008 power supply:

■ the T2004-A20 (T2020) or the T2004-A40 (T2040) Primary Multi-

Control Head Kit (one required per system).

■ the T2004-A21 (T2020) or T2004-A41 (T2040) Secondary Multi-

Control Head Kit (not required if only one control head is used in the
system).

The T2004-A20 or T2004-A40 Primary Head Kit provides the Primary
control head as well as the Radio Interface PCB. This PCB is housed inside
a dummy (Clayton’s) control head and replaces the standard control head on
the radio. The radio can be concealed if required, as all radio controls are
now done via the Primary control head.

The T2004-A21 or T2004-A41 Secondary Head Kit provides one
Secondary control head and other equipment needed to install the control
head for use with the radio.

T2004 Multi-Control Head System Manual System Overview 13
© Tait Electronics Limited May 2004

Each control head can be installed anywhere on a multi-drop line up to
2000m long (not included), and is powered locally by a mains-operated DC
plug pack. A speaker plugs into each control head to provide local Tx and
Rx audio.

Note The DC Plug pack is not supplied as part of the kit. The correct

plug pack for each country can be ordered separately as per the
table on page 18.

The control heads provide the same functionality as the standard T2000
control head, but will not provide for a DTMF module to be fitted. In
addition, the control heads provide some extra functions:

■ Global Mute

The Global Mute function is provided to avoid the possibility of
audio feedback when two or more control heads are placed in close
proximity. This function is individually selectable on each control
head, via a link JP1 on the control head PCB. Refer to Part B, Con­trol Head for further information.

■ Power Switch Selection

The Power Switch Selection function is provided so that only one
control head in the system (the Primary control head) is able to con­trol the system’s power. This function is selectable by the fitting of a
jumper (JP2) on the control head PCB of the Primary control head.
Refer to Part B, Control Head for further information.

This kit provides one Secondary control head and other equipment needed
to install the control head for use with the radio. Between one and four
Secondary Multi-Control Head Kits can be installed as part of your system.

Each control head can be installed anywhere on a multi-drop line up to
2000M long, and is powered locally by a mains-operated DC plug pack. A
speaker plugs into each control head to provide local Rx audio and Tx audio
from other control heads in the system.

DC Plug packs for powering multi -control heads

Each multi-control head requires a separate DC plug pack. This is not
supplied as part of the kit because the exact plug pack requirements differ
between countries.

With each T2004 multi-control head kit you can order one of the following
plug packs

Order Code Input Voltage Country

T952-012 230V Australia/ New Zealand

T952-022 230V United Kingdom

2.4 System Connections

Each control head connects to the system network via the Micromatch to
RJ45 Cable, which plugs into the RJ45 Wallbox. The RJ45 Wall boxes are
fitted at intervals along a multi-drop cable.

The radio also connects to the system network via the Micromatch to RJ45
Cable, which plugs into the X2AM01 Multi-Head Radio Interface. The
other end of the cable plugs into an RJ45 Wallbox, which is fitted at one
end of the multi-drop cable. See system diagram earlier for block overview
of system.

3 System Installation

The T2004 Multi-Control Head Installation Manual M2004-00-000-315
should be referred to for the installation process.

20 System Installation T2004 Multi-Control Head System Manual

4 System Operation

The primary control head provides the same user functionality as the
original T2020/T2040 control head, including the On/Off power control
to the entire multi-head system.

The Secondary control heads have the same functionality except for the
On/Off power control. The power switch is disabled in the Secondary
heads, because only one control head (Primary) can provide system power
On/Off control.

Secondary control heads can not be individually powered off.

Note The DC plug pack for the Secondary head should be connected

to a 24-hour mains outlet in order for the Secondary heads to
always function correctly. Display errors will occur if power is
removed and replaced without resetting the radio via the Primary
head. Secondary heads have a programmed delay of 10 seconds
from initial power on, where key presses will not be actioned.

5 System Equipment Specifications

5.1 Multi-Drop Cable Specifications

Note This cable is not supplied by TEL as part of the Multi-Control

Head system.

The Multi-Drop Cable is a 4x twisted pair overall screen cable (Cat5 or
similar) which is used for cabling within the building. The length of this
cable can be a maximum of 2000M.

The recommended cable type used for the multi-drop cable is M&M cables
b2004 ESCS 4 x twisted pair/overall screen.

RJ45 Wall boxes are fitted at intervals along this multi-drop cable, which
provide the junction between the remote control heads and connection to
the building network.

5.2 Micromatch to RJ45 Cable (IPN 219-02900-00)

The Micromatch to RJ45 Cable is the means by which the radio and control
heads connect to the building network.

The cable connects the radio at SK3 on the X2AM01 Multi-Head Interface
