HDSICM ONE WAY INTERCOM
USER’S MANUAL

FEATURES

• Complies with the 1996 Code for machine room to the cab communications
• Simple off-hook operation
• Easy installation with one pair of wiring
• Battery backup
• The call is initiated from the Machine Room phone only
• Wall-mounted phone with handset for machine room
• Available in multi-button models for multiple cabs.
• The cab unit can mount on the ceiling using provided enclosure or can be mounted behind the speaker pattern if removed from the enclosure

OPERATION

1. Remove the handset from the telephone and it will automatically establish communication with the elevator unit. If there are 2 or more buttons on the telephone, press the appropriate button to establish communication with the unit you need to communicate with.
2. To end the call, simply just hang up the handset to the cradle

PRE-TESTING

1. Remove the intercom system from the shipping box. If you want to test the intercom before installation, connect a pair of wires from the white terminal strip to the TELCO block on the cab unit. Be sure that the positive side of The European connector is connected to the positive side of the TELCO block. See markings on the connector and on the PC board beside the TELCO block for proper terminal designations.
2. Plug the AC power supply into the 110VAC outlet and connect the 9-volt battery to the battery snap.
3. Take the elevator unit into an adjoining room and close the door.
4. The person at the machine room phone should pick up the handset. If it is a simplex unit (no pushbuttons), communication can begin. If the unit is a duplex (2 buttons) or triplex (3 buttons), the person needs to press the appropriate pushbutton to communicate with the elevator cab unit.
5. Check each elevator unit in the same manner.

INSTALLATION

1. The intercom system requires one pair of wiring for each elevator unit to the machine room phone. The intercom system requires 110 volts AC to trickle charge the battery. The wiring from the AC plug can be extended as needed to get to the nearest outlet. Connectors are provided for this purpose.
2. Install the elevator unit on the ceiling using the mounting holes provided in the galvanized box. The elevator unit can be mounted behind a speaker grille in the car operating panel (3.5-inch minimum diameter speaker pattern required) by removing the intercom board from the galvanized enclosure.
3. Install the machine room telephone on the wall using an RJ11W or equivalent.
4. Connect the AC power to the machine room telephone.
5. For Simplex installations, connect one pair of wires between the European connector of the Machine Room telephone to the TELCO connector of the elevator unit. This connection is polarity sensitive, so be sure to connect the wiring so that the positive is on the No. 2 terminal.
6. On multi-button telephones, there will be a white terminal strip at the Machine Room phone with a connection for each cab unit. When you connect the wiring at the TELCO connector, be sure that the positive is connected to the No. 2 side of the connector. Positive and negative are marked on the board.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Make sure that the Machine Room phone is getting power from the AC transformer by checking the voltage on the battery snap. There should be approximately 13 volts DC with the handset on-hook. There should be positive voltage on the female side of the connector and negative voltage on the male side. If the polarity is not correct reverse the wires coming from the wall transformer.
2. Make sure the wall phone is powered by taking the handset off-hook and pressing any of the digits. There should be tones heard in the handset. If no tones are heard check the connections to the power supply.
3. Make sure the 9-volt battery is charged. If you have less than 8-volts you can temporarily replace it with any charged 9-volt battery for testing purposes. The 9-volt The battery supplied with the unit is rechargeable and will build up to full charge after a couple of hours connected to the power supply.
4. Check to make sure voltage is being sent to the European connectors. WITH THE HANDSET offhook and THE APPROPRIATE PUSH BUTTON PRESSED (if not simplex) check to see if you have 9-13 volts DC to the European connector to the selected elevator cab.
5. Check to make sure the cab unit is getting voltage. WITH THE HANDSET OFFHOOK and THE APPROPRIATE PUSHBUTTON PRESSED (If not simplex) measure the DC voltage at the TELCO connector. There should be 9-13 volts. Make sure that polarity is the correct-positive voltage on the No. 2 and negative voltage on the No. 1 connector. The CMU intercom in the elevator cab does not require a 9-volt battery.
6. You can test each cab unit individually and without any field wiring connected by attaching a 9-volt battery to the battery connector that is soldered directly onto the PC board and plugging a modular tone phone into the blackjack on the back of the board. You should be able to communicate through the handset to the PC board.
