Introduction2-3
Introduction
As with any sophisticated communications device, installationof the
competent technician.To assure easyservicing and reliable operation,
several factors must be considered when planning the system
installation. Theinstallation proceedsin these major steps:
Site Preparation
KSU and Power Supply (PS) Installation
PCB Installation
Sys tem Wi ring
Keyset an d Termi nal I nstallat ion
Basic InstallationCheck-Out
System Programming and Verification
Ins ta llin g t he STARPLUS Tria d- S System is quickand efficient if these
ins ta llat ion ins tructions are fo llowe d.
Site Preparation
General Site Considerations
The first step is to locate an acceptable site for the commonequipment
(KSUs, boards, etc.). When locating a mounting site for the KSUs, the
following points must be considered:
The KSUs are designed for wall mounting and should not be
mounted dir ec tly t o a mas onr y or plas terboa rd wall. I t is
recommended that a 1/2 inch plywoodbackboard be firmly
mounted to the wall, and the KSU and MDF be mounted to the
back board.
Page 21
2-4Site Preparation
The location must have access to a dedicated 110 Volt AC (±10%), 60
Hz , si ngl e-p hase circu it with a c irc uit br eak er or f use rat ed a t 15 amps .
A 3-wire parallel blade grounded outlet should bewithin
approximately 6 feet of the lower left rear of the BKSU mounting.
The location must have access to a g ood earth ground, such as a
metallic cold water pipe without non-metallic joints. The ground
sourceshould be located asclose aspossibleto the system.
The sy stem shoul d be located in an a rea that is well v entilated with a
recommen ded temperature range of 68°-78 °Fandarelative
humidity range of 5-60% ( non condensing).
Thesystemshouldbelocatedwithin25feetofthetelephone
company’s te r mina ti on p oint. Al so, t he l oc ation s houl d be wi thin the
pr escribed st ation loop lengths for al l keysets and te rmi nals. If
existing cabling is used, its location and conduits should be
considered. Station wiringshould bein thebuilding. Station ports are
not designed for installation outside of the building.
Protection from flooding, flammable materials, excessive dust and
vibration.
The siteshould be away fromradiotransmitting equipment, arcweldingdevices, copyingmachines andother electrical equipment
capable of generating electrical interferences.
Operation ofthis equipment in a residential area islikelyto cause
int erf erence. In w hich cas e the user, at his own exp ens e, is r equi red to
take any n eces sar y me asur es to corr ect the i nterference.
Page 22
Site Preparation2-5
Backboard Installation
A wooden backboard is recommended for all installations and must be
installed when the location has masonry or plasterboard walls. A 1/2-inch
plywood material is sufficient for most installations. The backboard
shouldbemounted at aconvenient height, about threefeet above the
floor andbe bolted in various places to distributethe weight of the
system.
Spaceshouldbeavailableonthebottomsideofthebackboardforthe
MDF cabling and for optional equipment such as a music source, battery
backup, etc. It is recomme nded that the locati on of each major item be
roughly sketched on the b ackboard as an installation layout.
Verify On-Site Equipment
Once the equipment installation siteis identifiedand a dedicated AC
outlet, earth ground , and lig hting and ventilation are availab le, verify that
allequipmentrequiredison-site and wasnotdamaged during shipment.
Unpack the KSUs to assure there is no shipping damage. Note that a
mounting template is packed with the BKSU; this template is required
later in the installation. Check that the typeand quantity of boards
receivedis correct and optional equipment and a Power Line Surge
Protector are on-site. DoNOTunpack the individualboardsat this time.
If any equ ipment is damage d o r missing, noti fy the app ropriate
personnel to correct the situation.

The STARPLUS Triad-S Sys tem cons ists of a B asic KS U (B KS U) c abine t.
Mounting the Basic KSU
The Basic KS U consi sts of a pla stic cover, a metal b ase frame desi gned for
wall mounting. Before installing BKSU on the wall, two wall mounting
plates that are assembled in the bottom sid e of the BKSU, must be
extended for mounting. The KSU must NOT be mounted on a masonry or
dry-wall surface;a woodenbackboard is required.
A mount ing templat e is i ncluded wit h t he B KSU. Thi s template ca n be
used to drill pilot holes for mounting screws. Please note that the
template provides screw hole locations for the BKSU and EKSU. The BKSU
is mou nted w it h t hree # 10 or la rge r, 1 1 /2 i nch or lon ger sc rew s. Dr ill pil ot

KSU Installation2-9
Mounting the Expansion KSU (EKSU)
The Expansion KSU consists of a plastic cover, a metal base frame
designed for wall mount installation. The EKSU contains a power
transformer and expansion interface board (EIB). The EKSU MUST be
mounted above theBKSU.Before installing the BKSU on the wall, thewall
mounting plate that is assembled in the bottom side of the EKSU, must
be extended for wall mounting and the fastener provided with the EKSU
must b e assembled with the EKSU.
After positioning the EKSU above theBKSU:
1. Markthe location of the two screwsto mountthe BKSU.The EKSU
must NOT be mounted on a masonry or dry wall surface; a wooden
back board is required. The EKSU is mounted with two #10 or larger,
1 ½ inch or longer screws.
2. Drill pilot holes in the two locations marked, insert the screws and
tighten leaving about ½ inchexposed.
3. Mount the Expansion KSU on the screws and tighten the screws
securely.
Interconnection is achieved via an amphenol type connector and power
cable. The amphenol connector is included and connects the EKSU to the
BKSU on the right side through connectors labeled EXP as shown:

2-12Battery Chargin g Unit (BCU) Installation
Battery Charging Unit (BCU) Installation
The BCU provides power for the system during a power f ailure. The BC U
connects to the Triad-S via the connector on the bottom of the BKSU. The
ext ernal g el cell batter ies m ust provi de 24 V DC. This is gen eral ly
accomplished by connecting two 12 volt batteries in series.
The BCU provides chargingcurrent to thebatteries duringnormal AC
power operation at a maximum of about 0.5 amp. During battery
operation, the BCU discontinuesbattery operation ifAC poweris
restored orthe batteryvoltage is too low to maintain proper system
operation.
The time the system operates onbatteries isdependent onseveral
elements, including: battery charge state, condition of the b atteries,
capacity of the batteries, andthe systemsize (number of station ports).

KSU Grounding
To ensur e proper sy stem operation and for s afety purposes, a good e arth
groundis required.A metallic COLDwaterpipe usually provides areliable
ground. Carefully check that the pipe does not contain insulated joints
tha t c ould isola te the grou nd. I n t he ab sen ce of a C OL D wa ter pi pe, a
groundrodor othersource may be used.
A #1 2 in sul ated A WG or la rge r co pper wire shoul d b e used betwe en t he
ground source and the KSU (BKSU and EKSU, respectively). The wire
should be kept a s short a s possible (recommended 25 f eet or less).
1. Remove about 1 1/2 inches of insulation from both ends. Attach one
end of the wire to the Ground Lug on thelower side of theBasicand
on the lower side of the Expansion KSU by inserting the wire under
the l ug s cre w, th en ti ghte n t he scr ew se cu rely.
2. Attach the other end of the wire,as appropriate, to the ground
source.
3. Take a DC resistance reading and an AC volt reading between the
chassis ground point (cold water pipe) and AC ground (third wire AC
ground). Thelimit is 5V AC and 5 Ohms DC resistance. If ahigher
reading is obtained, choose a different chassis ground point and
repeat thisstep until a suitable ground point isfound.
Page 31
2-14Power Line Surge Protection
Powe r Li ne Su rge Pr ot ec tion
The AC outlet should be equipped with a power surge protection device
or UPS. Systems using su ch devices are mor e resist ant to da mage from
power line surges than unprotected sy stems. Power line surges often
occur during normal operations a nd during violent thunderstorms.
Installation of a surge protector meeting the specifications described in
the following paragraphmay prevent or minimize thedamage resulting
from power line surges.
The isolation transformer/surge p rotector should be: 15 amp
se lf-containe d un it t hat plugs into a stand ar d grounded 1 17V AC wal l
outlet. The wall outlet must be designedto accept a 3-prongplug (two
parallel blades and a ground pin). The protector should be fast and
capable of protecting transients greater than200 volts.
Lightning Protection
The system provides secondary protection per UL 1459 specifications.
Primary protection circuitry is the installer’s responsibilityand should be
installed per the National Electric Code (NEC).
KSU AC Power Plug
Before plugging the KSU power cord into the AC source (grounded,
3-prong AC outlet required):
1. Verify the power switch of the BKSU is off.
2. Plug the KSU power cord into the AC outlet and turn the power
switchon.
The red LED on the MPB illuminates.

PCB Handling and Gene ral Installation
DO NOT in stall or r emov e any bo ards with p owe rappl ied .
The sy stem cards contain digital circuitry whi ch are extreme ly reliable,
but can be damaged by expos ure to excessive static electricity. Whe n
handling PCBs,a groundedwrist strap should be usedto protect the
boards from static discharges. Also, use common sense when handling
PCBs.
Example: Do not place a PCB in locations where heavy objects might fall
onthe PCB anddamage components.
BKSU and Main Processor Board Assembly
The main processor board (MPB) is installed in the BKSU at the factory
before the shipment. The MPB contains a lithium dry cell to maintain
memory a nd real-time clock functions. The battery is soldered to the MPB
and connected to the circuitry byan ON-OFFdip switch (SW2).Makesure
thedipswitchSW2isONbeforedatabaseprogramming.
Before pr ogramming the sys tem, switch 1 (SW1) should be placed in the
ON position and powered off and on to initialize the system database to
default. Once the database is initialized, sw itch 1 (SW1) should be placed
in the O FF po sition to prote ct the da ta bas e.

the o ff-l ine t es ting o f d igi tal k eys et s a nd D SS unit s. T he t erm off- lin e
means that the unit under test is operationally disconnected from the
switch during the test operation. Keysets not under test continue to
operate in the normal ma nner. Tests are provided to verify the keyset an d
DSS LED, LCD, and keyboard button operations.
The test mode is entered by taking a keyset’s handset off hook.
Pressi ng the SPE ED bu tton and d ia ling [7 #] on the di al pad
disconnects the keyset from the system and brings up the Test Mode
Menu on the keyset’s LCD. The t est mode is e xit ed by putt ing the
