Application Information
1.1 Description
The SP4 Telephone Zone Controller (SP4-TZC) controls the zone paging capability of the SAFEPATH®4
Multi-Function Facility Communications System. Itis used in conjunction with the SP40 and the SP4-APS
(SP4 Addressable Paging Splitter). Audio Boosters SPB-80/4, SPB-160, and SPB-320 can be used in
conjunction with the SP40. Each audio booster can use additional SP4-APS splitters, increasing the number of
possible paging zones.
The SP4-APS splitter in conjunction with the SP4-TZC allows the End User to make audio zone specific
telephone pages and/or have audio zone specific Background Music (BGM) on a Wheelock SAFEPATH®4
Multi-Function Facility Communications System. This can occur as long as the system is not broadcasting a
pre-recorded message or when the live microphone is in use. The selective paging and BGM functions are
controlled by the SP4-TZC over a RS-485 based digital control network. It also provides a means for
expanding one supervised audio output zone to 4 CLASS “B” or 2 CLASS “A” supervised zones. The
maximum number of CLASS “B” zones in a system is 68. The maximum number of CLASS “A” zones in a
system is 34.
The SP4-TZC can be used with or without the SP4 Telzone Programmer 2 software. The features available
without using the software include the use of Individual Zones and Fixed Zone Groups for Zone Paging, and
Background Music on all zones. When using the SP4 Telzone Programmer 2 software additional features
include Logical Zone Group paging, disabling of Zone Paging (All-Call Paging), user programmable Zone
Setup options, and customization of Individual Zones for Backgr ound Music.
An Individual Zone is one of the individual outputs from an SP4-APS splitter. The SP4-APS splitter can
produce either 2 CLASS “A” or 4 CLASS “B” zones.
A Fixed Zone Group consists of 2 CLASS “A” or 4 CLASS “B” zones on each SP4-APS splitter. For example,
if the first SP4-APS splitter is used to cover the zones in the warehouse area the Fixed Zone Group for that area
can be paged by keying the two digit Zone Code “71” on the paging phone. The Zone Codes for Fixed Zone
Groups are 71 through 87 with each Zone Code matching the order of the splitters.
When used with the SP4 Telzone Programmer 2 software, the SP4-TZC in conjunction with the SP4-APS
splitter is capable of programming up to 9 Logical Zone Groups for audio paging. A Logical Zone Group
consists of 1 to 5 Individual Zones and/or Fixed Zone Groups. It can also program any Individual Zone for
Background Music. The two digit Zone Code for the Logical Zone Groups are “91” through “99”.
Paging an Individual Zone, a Fixed Zone Group, or a Logical Zone Group is accomplished using a touch-tone
phone connected to a page port or a touch-tone stand-alone phone. The paging telephone is connected to the
SP4-TZC allowing it to key Zone Codes each consisting of two-digit DTMF tones. See Table 1 for the dialing
scheme. Any Individual Zone or Fixed Zone Group that is not known by the system will result in a no page
condition and the SP4-TZC will start the paging process over.
The SP4 Telzone Programmer 2 software is the second major release of the sof tware, that is designed to operate
with an SP4-TZC having firmware version 2.xx. It is NOT backwards compatible with an SP4-TZC having
firmware version 1.xx. For SP4-TZC's having firmware version 1.xx, version 1.x.x.x of the SP4 Telzone
Programmer software must be used to ensure proper operation.

Zone Code Zones
00 All Call
01 - 68 Individual Zones
71 - 87 Fixed Zone Groups
91 - 99 Logical Zone Groups
Note: Zone Code is the splitter zone DTMF tone.
All splitters must use the same CLASS of wiring (CLASS “A” or “B”) for the audio output zones. See the SP4APS Installation Instructions (P84577) for proper wiring.
Individual Zone and Fixed Zone Group Zone Codes are controlled by the placement of the splitters in the
RS485 digital communication circuit. The first splitter connected to the RS485 digital control port on the SP4TZC will be assigned the first Zone Codes (Individual Zone Codes of “01” and “02” for CLASS “A”,
Individual Zone Codes of “01” through “04” for CLASS “B”, and a Fixed Zone Group Code of “71”). Using
the previous example where the first splitter covers the warehouse area, let’s add a second splitter covering the
front office area. If the paging zones are set for CLASS “A” then the warehouse will have Individual Zone
Codes of “01” and “02”. The front office area Individual Zone Codes will be “03” and “04”. The Fixed Zone
Group Code for the warehouse will be “71”, and the front office Fixed Zone Group Code will be “72”

removed, install it by using the Microprocessor alignment marker shown in Figure 3.
Make sure that all pins on the PC board are properly aligned.
1.2.1 Power
The SP4-TZC is powered by a separate 24VDC filtered and regulated power supply whi ch can provide a
minimum of 150mA of current. The Wheelock RPS-2406 is a good choice.
1.2.2 USB Port
The USB port is used to program the 9 Logical Zone Groups and Background Music (BGM) using the SP4
Telzone Programmer 2 software included. The default (out of the box) configuration for the SP4-TZC is that
all zones have BGM. To program using the USB port, connect an interface cable from the host computer’s
USB ports to the USB Series “B” receptacle located on the SP4-TZC. The USB cable should not exceed 10
feet in length. This cable can be purchased using Cooper Wheelock Part Number TZC -USB (109923). The
SP4 Telzone Programmer 2 software can also be downloaded from the Cooper Wheelock website
(www.wheelockinc.com).
1.2.3 Telephone Input
The PHONE IN (Telephone Input) can accept three different types of devices to activate an audio page: a
stand-alone telephone, an unused C.O. port, or a page port. The SP4-TZC provides the stand-alone telephone
and unused C.O. port with loop start current in order to operate and provi de DTMF tones. The page port must
provide 600 Ohm impedance, provide a dry contact, pass loop current, and allow the DTMF tones to pass.
1.2.4 Background Music Input
The monaural Background Music Input shall be a Line Level Signal of 300mVrms at 600 Ohms. Background
Music will be automatically muted during a telephone page.
1.2.5 Audio Out
The Audio Out connects the to the SP40 BGM input.
1.2.6 RS485 Digital Control Port
The RS485 Digital Control Port connects to the digital control loop for the SP4-APS splitters.
1.3 Enclosure
The SP4-TZC PC board is mounted in its own enclosure and is designed for indoor use only. Normally, it is
mounted next to the SP40 enclosure. The separate 24VDC power supply is mounted outside of the enclosure.

2.4 Wiring the SP4-TZC Zone Controller
This Section describes the wiring of the SP4-TZC Zone Controller. Following the sequence of Section numbers
will ensure a proper installation.
2.4.1 Removable Terminal Block
The terminal blocks on the SP4-TZC are removable. To remove a terminal block, pull the block horizontally
from the circuit board as shown in Figure 5. Attach each wire to its proper connections, and plug the
terminal block back on the board being careful to match and align the pins.

2.4.2 Wiring the SP4-TZC Zone Controller
2.4.2.1 Wiring Connections for SP4-TZC to SP40 and an SP4-APS
To wire the SP4-TZC to the SP40 with one SP4-APS, refer to Appendix B in the back of this manual.
2.4.2.2 Wiring Connection for SP4-TZC to SP40 with an SP4-APS and
Audio Boosters with Multiple SP4-APS Splitters
SPB-160
To wire the SP4-TZC to the SP40 with one SP4-APS splitter and an Audio Booster with multiple SP4APS splitters, refer to Appendix C in the back of the manual. The diagram uses an SPB-160 Audio
Booster because it has two Audio Outputs with a splitter on each.
SPB-80/4
The SPB-80/4 Audio Booster has the same audio term inals as the SPB-160, except that it has a single
audio output. Use Appendix C and follow the same wiring sequence as the SPB-160 with a single SP4APS.

2.4.3 Wiring the Paging Telephone to the SP4-TZC
STEP 6
Connect to the PHONE IN terminal using either Section 2.4.3.1 “Stand-Alone Telephone or
Unused CO Port Wiring” or Section 2.4.3.2 “Audio Page Port Wiring”.
2.4.3.1 Stand-Alone Telephone or Unused CO Port Wiring
If a stand-alone telephone or an unused CO port on a telephone system is used, wire the Tip and Ring
wires directly to the PHONE IN terminals. The Tip wire is usually green and the Ring wire is usually
red. See Figure 6 for the location of the connection on the SP4-TZC.
Figure 6
Stand Alone Telephone or Unused CO Port Wiring
2.4.3.2 Audio Page Port Wiring
If the SP4-TZC is to be connected to an audio page port, the Audio Page Port must provide:
(A) A 600 Ohm, low power page output, capable of passing DC loop current.
(B) Transmission of DTMF tones (touch-tone).
(C) A dry contact that is normally open, closes when paging and reopens when the page is
completed.
If these conditions are met, then connect Tip and Ring as shown in Figure 7.
