US-2000 User Station

GENERAL
The Audiocom® US-2000 is a microprocessor controlled two-channel intercom user station, that occupies only 1/2-rack space. The US-2000 can communicate with an entire intercom system or an individual channel, and can be expanded up to 18 channels. ES-4000 Expansion Stations can be “daisy chained” to the US-2000 to add four channels at a time to the intercom system. Each channel can be programmed for talk, listen or both. The US-2000 can use mono or stereo headsets, or panel mounted microphone. VOX operation can be selected for either headset or panel microphone. Internal switch and jumper settings allow the unit to be used with Clear-Com® components, if desired. Other internal switch and jumper settings allow the unit to be uniquely configured to the operator’s requirements.
FCC STATEMENT
This equipment uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy that may cause interference to radio communications if not installed in accordance with this manual. The equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart J, Part 15 of FCC Rules which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause interference which the user (at his own expense) will be required to correct.
This product meets the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive, 89/336/EEC.

INITIAL US-2000 SETUP
The channel termination is initially set for balanced operation, which is compatible with other Audiocom® equipment. If the unit is going to be connected to Clear-Com equipment, two jumpers and one switch must be changed as described in the section on Clear-Com Setup in this manual.
The US-2000 is factory set to allow all channels (including those of any attached ES-4000 units) to be heard through a single powered speaker, such as the Audiocom® SPK-1000. If the user wants to have each channel go to a separate powered speaker, three jumpers must be changed as described in the section on Speaker Setup in this manual.
The headset microphone termination is initially set for unbalanced operation. To change the headset microphone termination, refer to Table 2 in this manual for the position of jumper J16. If the termination requirement of a headset microphone is unknown, the recommended setting is unbalanced.
MICROPROCESSOR FUNCTIONS

CHN 1
Each intercom channel has a pair of connectors (one male and one female) for convenient interconnection of stations. Each pair of con­nectors is wired together in parallel, providing a “loop through” at each connector pin. Use one connector of each pair to connect to the intercom power supply. Use the other connector of each pair to run a cable to another user station.

CHANNEL TERMINATION
Each channel of the US-2000 must be terminated to prevent audio oscillations. When a channel is connected to a Telex® power supply, channel termination is provided within the power supply for that channel.
External channel termination must be installed when a channel is:
· Used in a “dry-line” (non-powered channel) application
· Unused and un-powered
If necessary, install external channel termination by connecting a 300W resistor across pins 2 and 3 of the intercom channel connector (either

) at the rear of the US-2000.
INTERNAL SWITCHES, JUMPERS AND ADJUSTMENTS
There are several internal switches, jumpers and adjustments that affect operation. These are described below. To gain access to the switches, jumpers and adjustments, remove one screw from the top of the cover and two screws on each side. Switch, jumper and adjustment locations

Adjustments
The following adjustments are accessible either internally (refer to Figure
2) or from the underside of the US-2000, as shown in Figure 3.
Return Cancellation Adjustments (R187, R188)
Adjusted at the factory to cancel audio output that may be re­flected from the line. There is a separate adjustment for each channel. The Return Cancellation should only require adjust­ment when the channel impedance or capacitance changes sig­nificantly. To adjust one channel; connect powered speaker (set for full volume), enable TEST SIGNAL on desired channel, and adjust appropriate Return Cancellation to minimize signal volume on the speaker.
Limiter Adjustment (R198)
Adjusted at the factory for 1 Vrms audio output to the line. If the microphone input is higher than 4 mVrms, adjust the pre-amp Limiter to reduce clipping of the audio output signal, if neces­sary.
