PCS-84-10

Installation Instructions

I. Introduction

This manual is for a Power Charging System designed to provide power during the day to a Talk-A-Phone Co.
Emergency Phone System that receives power every night. At night, while the batteries are being charged, the
Power Charging System will continue to power the system.

The PCS-84-10 is specifically designed to provide power to a Talk-A-Phone tower enclosure (ETP-MT/R-PCS, ETP-

MT/R-PCS-WP, ETP-MTE-W, ETP-MTE-WP, WEBS-MT/R) or surface mount enclosure (ETP-SMW).

II. Contents

Before beginning installation, make sure you have all the included components. Each PCS-84-10 package consists
of the following bill of materials as summarized below:

III. Communication System Installation

All connections must meet National, Regional and Local Electrical Codes. Installation should only be performed by
qualified professional personnel. Step down transformer and DC-DC converters (included with the cellular
interfaces), have connections for multiple input and output voltages. Be sure to make your connections to the
terminals labeled with the voltage that you require. As a safety precaution, it is recommended that you make all
connections while the 120VAC (or other high-voltage) is turned off. The battery may need one charge cycle before
the system will function completely. It may be convenient to charge the battery in advance.

Make all electrical connections according to the wiring schematic in Figure1 as well as any instructions included
with the individual electrical components:

1. Use battery terminal crimp-on connectors to connect the LED Blue Light and LED panel light assembly
directly to the battery.

Installation Instructions

2. If using an optional ETP-CI , connect the 12VDC side of the DC/DC Converter to the Battery, and plug the
barrel connector into the ETP-CI Cellular Interface.

3. If using a VOIP-500 Series Phone, connect the device directly to the battery. Make sure the phone is set to
accept 12VDC by adjusting the jumpers on the PCB. Refer to the phone installation instructions for further
information.

4. If using an optional VOIP-RF-FM-1100, connect the PoE injector (model VOIP-RF-FM-POE) directly to the
battery.

5. Connect the battery charger to the battery.

6. If 120VAC is available, connect the battery charger to the incoming 120V. If a PCS-SD Series step down
transformer is used to step down a higher incoming voltage, connect the 120V side of the Battery Charger
to the 120V side of the transformer, and connect the incoming high voltage to the high voltage side of the
transformer.

7. Phones and Cellular/Wireless IP Interfaces require additional programming as described in their own
manuals.

IV. Physical Installation

The Power Charging System can mount into a PCS-BOX series enclosure, a Talk-A-Phone tower enclosure (ETP­MT/R-PCS, ETP-MT/R-PCS-WP, ETP-MTE-W, ETP-MTE-WP and WEBS-MT/R) or surface mount enclosure (ETP­SMW), or can be installed into a customer supplied enclosure.
