Introduction

Welcome to ComPoint ™ !

Thank you for choosing a Russound

ComPoint system for your home or business. While you may already be familiar with paging and intercom systems, each system works differently. We’ve designed

ComPoint for ease of operation and with a unique set of capabilities to meet your communication needs. You’ll be pleased with the way the system simplifies your life, and we’re confident you’ll enjoy using

ComPoint every day.

ComPoint integrates the following features:

System-wide paging

Perhaps you want to call the family to dinner, move your party guests to the living room, or summon everyone in the office to an important meeting. ComPoint’s paging feature allows you to do all this with ease.

You can let everybody know about an important event like a birthday or anniversary, or you can broadcast a message for someone to pick up the phone or come see you. Whatever announcement you want to make throughout your home or business, paging allows you to get the word out.

What’s more, if you’re paging an individual, that person can reply to your page from the nearest keypad.

Point-to-point intercom

One of ComPoint’s most useful functions is the intercom feature. You need to talk with someone in another room out of earshot, and you can’t leave the room you’re in. The solution? The intercom feature lets you contact the person directly, saving you steps and time.

Whenever you want to reach a particular person without disturbing the whole house or office, the intercom feature connects you to the room the person is in. You can think of an intercom session as a private conversation while paging is a public announcement. Also, intercom enables two-way conversations, whereas paging is intended for one-way communication.

Door station call and reply

With ComPoint at your service, you don’t have to run to the door every time the doorbell rings. If you can’t get to the door right away, the door station call function gives you the convenience of answering the door from any room.

At any keypad you can have a two-way conversation with the caller to find out who it is and the purpose of their visit—before you even approach the door.

Doorbell chimes

With ComPoint, you can have separate doorbell chimes for two doors. You have a choice of seven different chime tones that your installer can assign. Or you can use a separate doorbell system if you prefer.

USER SECTION

Introduction

Door strike release

Did someone in the family forget their keys?

Did a friend drop by? ComPoint offers an optional module that works with a door strike release to let you admit your visitor from any keypad without going to the door in person. Imagine the convenience of not having to leave the baby or interrupt an important task to go and open the door for your visitor.

Listen to another room

Need to keep an ear open for someone?

Wondering what the kids are doing? With

ComPoint you’re within earshot of any other room. Listen mode keeps you in touch with what’s going on in any room with a keypad.

Do not disturb

When you’ve tucked your kids into bed or you need peace and quiet in the study to concentrate, you can switch the room keypad to Do Not Disturb. This prevents all communication events from being heard in that room.

Hands free

One of the nicest features in ComPoint is the ability to reply to intercom calls without having to touch the keypad. And when the delivery person rings your doorbell, they can answer your reply without having to press the Call key again.

Integration with your music system

For even greater convenience, your

ComPoint system can share the speakers in your multiroom audio system. When active,

ComPoint switches the speakers over to the keypad amplifiers in the affected rooms, momentarily interrupting the audio program. When the activity ends, the speakers resume playing your audio program.

About this manual

This section of the manual is for you, the user. It explains what you need to know to use and enjoy your ComPoint system.

Reading these first several pages will help you get the most out of your system. As you learn, share your discoveries with others in your family or office so they too can enjoy using ComPoint.

The Installer section that follows provides more technical information and gets into the nitty gritty of how the system works. It’s intended for your installer, but you’re welcome to read it, too.

We recommend keeping this manual in a safe, accessible place so you can refer to it when you need to.

USER SECTION

Operation

Using your ComPoint system

ComPoint is easy and fun to use. You’ll find these instructions simple to follow. Take a little time to get familiar with them so you can start enjoying your system right away.

Things you’ll need to know

With ComPoint, we refer to areas with keypads as zones. A zone may be a single room or an area with more than one room, such as a kitchen and dining area.

Every communication has a sender and a receiver. With ComPoint, we call any zone that initiates a communication the sending zone. The zone or zones to which the communication is sent are receiving zones, even though they may reply to the initial communication. For an intercom session, the receiving zone is also the target zone.

In ComPoint, paging is the default method of communication. Different communication functions have different levels of priority.

Paging is not allowed when there is a door station call or intercom session in progress.

An intercom session is not allowed when there is a door station call or page in progress. Also, a door station call takes precedence over paging and intercom sessions and thus interrupts them.

Your ComPoint system is configured with either ISK1 Basic or ISK2 Advanced keypads. The way you use your system and the way it gives you information depends on which keypads you have. We explain how both types work.

With either keypad, pressing the Talk key sounds a ping tone in the receiving zones to announce your message. Releasing the

Talk key sounds a double ping.

If the system is already in use when you try to send a page or start an intercom session, the Talk key blinks red for 7 seconds to let you know the system is busy. Also, the

Advanced Keypad indicates Busy on its

LCD panel.

Paging

Paging lets you send an announcement throughout your home or business from any keypad. To send a page, simply press and hold the Talk key (figure 5), then speak. Release the key when you’re done speaking.

Fig. 5. Using the Talk key for paging

Your page will be heard in all zones except those that are in Do Not Disturb mode. For privacy and to avoid disturbing your neighbors, your page will not be heard at either door station.

USER SECTION

Operation

Paging (cont’d)

If a zone key is lit red on the Basic Keypad, press the key to deselect that zone before you press the Talk key to send a page.

If a zone label appears in the display on the Advanced Keypad, use the Next or

Previous key to select Page before you press the Talk key.

All keypads indicate which zone is sending a page, so you’ll know where it’s coming from. The zone indication remains for 30 seconds after the Talk key is released to simplify replying to the page.

The keypads in the receiving zones also sound a double ping when the Talk key is released. This lets you know the person sending the page is done speaking and you can reply to the page. Within 30 seconds, simply press and hold the Talk key and speak. Your reply will be heard only in the zone that sent the page.

If you wish to reply to the page after the

30-second limit, you can use the intercom function described below or a return page to send your reply.

Intercom

Unlike a system-wide page, an intercom session occurs only between two zones. To use this feature, select a target zone on a keypad. Press and hold the Talk key and speak. Release the Talk key when you’re done speaking.

On the Basic Keypad, press and release a zone key to select the target zone (figure

6). The key lights up red to indicate the zone is selected.

Fig. 6. Selecting a target zone on the Basic Keypad

If the selected target zone is in Do Not

Disturb mode, the zone key and DND key blink rapidly for 7 seconds.

On the Advanced Keypad, select a target zone by using the Previous or Next key to scroll through the list of available zones until the display shows the zone you want for the intercom session (figure 7).

If the selected zone is in Do Not Disturb mode, the display alternately shows the zone label and DND at 1-second intervals and the DND key blinks rapidly for 7 seconds.

USER SECTION

Operation

Door station call

A visitor can ring the doorbell and initiate a door station call by simply pressing and releasing the Call key (figure 8). When the

Call key is pressed, all keypads indicate the calling door station for 15 seconds. The D1 or D2 key on the Basic Keypad blinks red and the display on the Advanced Keypad shows Door1, Door2, or an installerassigned door label (figure 9).

10

Fig. 7. Selecting a target zone on the Advanced Keypad

Intercom (cont’d)

When the Talk key is released on the sending keypad, the receiving keypad indicates the sending zone to let you know which zone is sending. Also, both the sending and receiving keypads sound a single ping to let you know you can reply hands free within 7 seconds. After the 7 seconds, the keypads sound a double ping to signal the end of the hands-free reply period.

After the double ping, you can reply within

30 seconds by pressing and holding the

Talk key while you speak. After 30 seconds you can no longer reply, but you can start another intercom session to the zone that sent the original message.

Fig. 8. Using the Call key on a Door Station

The keypads also sound a doorbell chime, as long as they aren’t in Do Not Disturb mode and a chime option is selected on the hub. Alternatively, the door station can ring a separate doorbell.

USER SECTION

Operation station pings twice to indicate the time is up.

If more than 15 seconds have passed since the door call, you can reselect the door station and press the Talk key to start a new session. This does not ring the doorbell.

Door strike release

Door station call (cont’d)

A door station call takes precedence over paging and intercom sessions and thus interrupts them if they’re in progress when the Call key is pressed.

If your ComPoint system includes optional ISDR1 Door Strike Release

Modules, you can activate them from a keypad to unlock the doors. The

ISDR1 itself does not unlock the door; rather, it provides a switch to control a separate door strike release unit to unlock the door.

To reply to a door station call, press and hold the Talk key on a keypad within 15 seconds and speak. Release the Talk key when you’re done speaking. When you

Note: You must use the Talk key to reply to a door station call. For your privacy,

ComPoint doesn’t allow a hands-free reply to a door station call.

After you reply to a door station call, the caller has 7 seconds to answer your reply hands free. After 7 seconds, the door

The module then activates for 3 seconds and the keypad and door station sound a buzz tone to confirm activation.

To activate the Door Strike Release Module from an Advanced Keypad when there is no current door call session, first press the

Previous or Next key to scroll through the list to the door label (figure 11). Then press and hold both keys for 3 seconds.

Listen mode

You can use your ComPoint system to continuously listen to any single zone from one or more other zones. To do this, first turn on a keypad microphone in the zone you want to listen to, then select that zone on one or more other keypads.

Other communication events have priority over Listen mode but only temporarily interrupt it.

To turn on a zone microphone, select that zone on its own keypad. The Talk key lights up red to indicate the keypad’s microphone is active. On a Basic keypad, the zone key blinks (figure 12) and on an Advanced

Keypad, the zone label changes to MicOn after 2 seconds (figure 13). Note: Only one zone microphone can be on at once.

INSTALLER SECTION

Product Summary

About this section

This section of the manual provides technical information for installing and programming the

ComPoint system. It also provides detailed functional descriptions of the system components.

Product summary

The ComPoint system uses one or more central hubs, each of which supports up to 6 keypads.

Each keypad is addressable by its own unique

ID number assigned by the hub.

ComPoint connects with CAT-5 cable, which conveys power, ground, audio bus, and data between the components. The system end-toend length limit for the CAT-5 cable is 250 feet

(76 m).

The system can include one or two door stations connected to hub #1. Each door station has its own unique ID number, permanently assigned in the system firmware.

Each door station may also have a door strike release module wired in line between the hub and the station.

Simple system programming is required to assign the hub ID numbers, doorbell chimes, and when ISK2 Advanced Keypads are used, zone and door labels.

ISH1 Hub

As the central controller for the ComPoint system, the ISH1 Hub performs all communications routing. It addresses each keypad by sending a message on the status wire in the CAT-5 cable to give the keypad its own ID number according to the port it’s connected to.

The hub has 6 zone keypad ports. Up to 6 ISH1

Hubs can be linked together for a maximum of

36 zones. With multiple hubs, each hub must be assigned a unique ID number during installation.

The hub also has ports for 2 door stations. In a system with multiple linked hubs, only the hub with ID number 1 supports the door stations.

A separate doorbell chime tone can be selected on hub 1 for each door. These chime selections take effect for the entire system and play through all the zone keypads.

The hub’s firmware contains a list of zone labels for display on the ISK2 Advanced Keypads. The labels are assigned to zones by the installer and stored in nonvolatile memory within the hub.

The ISH1 hub uses an external power supply to conserve chassis space. It also has a port for updating the system firmware from a computer.

System keypads

ComPoint keypads are designed to be simple, intuitive interfaces for the user. Each model has a Talk key, volume keys, and a DND key for setting the zone in Do Not Disturb mode. Both models have installer-selectable amber or green backlighting that turns on when the system is used and turns off after the system is inactive for 60 seconds. A built-in microphone with automatic gain control picks up the user’s voice.

The keypads require external speakers, which are driven by the keypad amplifiers for communications. By using built-in speaker relays, the keypads can share the speakers used in a multiroom audio system. When ComPoint activates, the relays switch the speakers to the keypad amplifiers in the affected zones, momentarily interrupting the audio pprogram. When the activity ceases, the speakers are switched back to the audio system.

In the absence of a multiroom audio system, or in zones that are not shared with an audio system, the keypads can be connected directly to in-wall, in-ceiling, or surface-mounted speakers through concealed wiring.

The keypad amplifier is monaural, but the relay passes stereo signals from the audio system to the speakers.

The keypad volume keys adjust the listening level for communications by controlling the keypad’s amplifier output. They have no effect on the room volume for a connected audio system.

The volume keys signal the hub to send a ping tone as an audible cue for the volume level when there is no communication taking place.

Once the volume adjustment reaches either end of the range, the ping tone no longer sounds.

ISK1 Basic Keypad

The ISK1 Basic Keypad is designed for use in a system with up to six zones, since it cannot indicate or select zones other than 1 through 6.

Pressing a zone key selects a target zone for an intercom session.

Certain keys change to red to indicate zone or door station selection, incoming page or intercom, door station call, or system busy. When another zone originates a page or intercom session, that zone is indicated by a red-backlit zone key on the ISK1.

ISK2 Advanced Keypad

The ISK2 Advanced Keypad has enhanced features to provide more user feedback and support a larger system than the ISK1. It uses a 5character LCD text display to show zone and door station labels and other information.

INSTALLER SECTION

Product Summary/Installation

ISK2 Advanced Keypad (cont’d)

One of the benefits of the Advanced Keypad is unrestricted intercom on large systems (7 to 36 zones), since the ISK2 is able to select any of the zones by label. The zone and door station labels are dynamically served from the hub and listed in alphabetical order to appear on the keypad display. A Page label is included in the list as the default selection when the system is inactive and the Talk key is pressed.

On the ISK2, the target zone for an intercom session is selected by scrolling through the zone list. Pressing and holding the Previous or

Next key scrolls through the list with a half-second delay between zone labels.

A bar graph on the display indicates the zone volume level visually in conjunction with the audible ping tones. A small pushbutton on the front edge of the keypad is used to enter a setup mode to assign labels to the zones.

ISK3 Door Station

Unlike the Basic and Advanced Keypads, the

ISK3 Door Station has only one key and contains an internal speaker. Amplification for the speaker is built in as with the keypads but there is no speaker interrupt relay. A potentiometer allows adjustment of the speaker volume level.

The ISK3 also provides contacts for closing a standard doorbell circuit. These close for a minimum of 4 seconds to activate an existing doorbell or other device.

ISDR1 Door Strike Release Module

The optional ISDR1 Door Strike Release Module provides relay contacts for activating a door strike release obtained from another source.

The module connects in the CAT-5 line between a hub and an ISK3 door station. The ISDR1 can be located anywhere in the CAT-5 line, though it would be preferable to have it close to the door.

The ISDR1 obtains its operational power from the hub. The separate door strike release must receive power from its own source.

The ISDR1 passes signals on all leads of the

CAT-5 cable except one which is used to activate the module from the hub upon receiving a command from a keypad.

By providing a normally closed (NC) relay contact in addition to the normally open (NO) and common contacts used for the door strike release activation, the ISDR1 can be used for other applications where a versatile relay is needed. The ISDR1 can be activated by providing 15 VDC between two of the eight positions in the 110 punch-down input connector.

Device installation and trim

The ISH1 Hub is designed for surface mounting or installation in a structured wiring panel. It should be located near an electrical outlet.

The ISK1 and ISK2 Keypads are designed to install in standard US electrical plastic wall boxes with an internal volume of at least 18 cubic inches (295 cm 3 ). Each keypad occupies a single gang and accepts a Decora ® wall plate.

For the best accessibility, viewability, and microphone reception, we recommend installing the keypads at a standard thermostat height of 58 to 60 inches (1.5 m). This may vary according to personal preferences or requirements.

The ISK3 Door Station installs in a standard single-gang US electrical deep plastic wall box with an internal volume of at least 22 cubic inches

(360 cm 3 ). It has its own weather-resistant front plate and thus needs no other cover plate.

The ISDR1 Door Strike Release Module is a surface-mount device. It should be located in an accessible area near the door, such as an attic, basement, or closet space between the door station and the hub. The ISDR1 connects to a door strike release unit, which in most cases would be installed by a security contractor.

Wiring and connections

ComPoint system components connect with

CAT-5 cable. Run CAT-5 from the hub location to every keypad and door station location. If you are installing ISDR1 modules, loop the door station cables through the module locations.

Each keypad in the system requires one or two external speakers. If the ComPoint system is sharing speakers with an audio system, loop the speaker cables through the keypad locations. If dedicated speakers are being used, run the speaker cables to the keypads.

When running CAT-5 and speaker cables, avoid

AC power wiring. If you must run the cables parallel to electrical wiring, space the cables at least two feet (0.6 m) from the AC power lines.

110 punch-down connections

The keypads, door stations, and door strike release modules have 110 punch-down connectors for the CAT-5 cables. Connect the wires as shown in figure 19.

Each keypad also has an 8-pole screw-terminal connector for accessing the internal speaker relay. This connector is typically used for connecting the zone speakers in a multiroom audio system. In a zone where the ComPoint system does not share speakers with an audio system, connect a dedicated speaker or pair of speakers to the output terminals.

Note: Both speaker output channels must be connected, since they are wired in series. If you are using only one dedicated speaker, connect the speaker to one channel and connect a shorting jumper or a 2-watt power resistor of up to 8 ohms to the other channel. If the CAT-5 cable to the keypad is short, a jumper will suffice. If the CAT-5 is long, use a resistor instead to reduce the load on the keypad amplifier.

Be sure to observe polarity when connecting the speaker wires. The standard color code for

4-conductor speaker cable is as follows:

Programming

System programming

All system programming resides in the ISH1

Hub. For a six-zone system with ISK1 Basic

Keypads, programming consists only of setting the doorbell chimes. For a system with ISK2

Advanced Keypads, programming includes assigning zone and door station labels. For a system with more than six zones, programming includes setting hub ID numbers.

20

Fig. 24. DIP switches on ISH1 Hub

The ISH1 Hub has DIP switches for setting the hub ID number and doorbell chime assignments.

The hub’s firmware contains lists of zone and door station labels for display on the ISK2

Advanced Keypads. These labels are assigned by using a connected ISK2 keypad.

With multiple hubs, the label settings are initially stored in the hub to which the keypad is connected. Upon exiting the programming procedure, the settings are copied to the other hubs.

Hub 1 serves as the master hub for storing all zone and door label settings. Whenever hub 1 is powered up, its settings are copied to the other hubs. Accordingly, hub 1 should be powered up last whenever the system power is cycled.

Hub ID numbers

In a system with multiple ISH1 Hubs, each hub must have a unique ID number. This is manually assigned on the 4-switch HUB ID DIP before the system is powered up. To assign the ID number, set switches 1 through 3 as shown in table 1.

Doorbell chimes

A single 8-switch DIP assigns doorbell chimes for both door stations. Switches 1 through 3 select the chime for door 1 and switches 5 through 7 select the chime for door 2. There are 7 chime options, with a setting for no chime when a separate doorbell system is used. To select the chimes, set the switches as shown in table 2.

Doorbell chimes (cont’d)

Switch 4 selects how the chime volume level is managed. Setting the switch to 1 (up) sets the chime volume level to a fixed level at 50% of the maximum keypad output in all zones. This causes the chime to play at the same level in all zones. Setting the switch to 0 (down) allows the chime volume to be determined by the keypad volume level setting in each zone independently.

Switch 8 is currently not used.

The ISH1 Hub also has a gain control for setting the overall volume of the doorbell chime through the system. This can be used to adjust the chime level relative to the communication level.

Note: In a system with multiple linked hubs, only the settings on hub 1 affect the doorbell chime assignments and volume level, since the door stations connect only to hub 1. Because the settings take effect immediately, the doorbell chimes can be set at any time. There is no need to cycle the power after setting them.

Zone and door station labels for Advanced

Keypads

The ISK2 Advanced Keypad shows which zone or door station is selected by displaying a zone or door station label. The default zone labels are Zn#1 through Zn#36, based on the hub and port numbers the keypads are connected to.

The default door station labels are Door1 and

Door2. You can assign zone labels from table 3 and door station labels from table 4 to replace the default labels. The hubs retain label assignments in nonvolatile memory so they won’t be affected if the system is powered down.

Table 4. Assignable door labels for ISK2

To assign labels you must have all hubs linked together with unique ID numbers (if the system has multiple hubs) and an ISK2 Advanced

Keypad connected to any hub. You can use the same keypad to assign labels for the entire system. Also, the system must be powered up.

Assigning zone labels

To assign zone labels, follow these steps (or the

Zone Name Procedure flow chart on page 24):

1. Remove the wall plate if it’s installed. Press and release the Setup button on the right edge of the keypad (figure 25) to enter the main menu.

The display shows

ZName (ZONE NAME).

2. Press the Talk key to enter the Zone Name procedure. The display shows Zn#? to prompt you to select a zone number.

3. Press the Talk key again for the next sequential zone to be assigned or use the Volume Up or

Fig. 25. ISK2 Setup Button

Volume Down key to select a specific zone. You can press and hold the key to scroll through the list of zones with a half-second delay between items. Stop at the desired zone number.

4. Press and release the Talk key. The display shows

Name? to prompt you to assign a zone label.

5. Use the Volume Up or Volume Down key to select a label from the list of zone labels. You can press and hold the key to scroll through the list of zone labels with a half-second delay between items.

Stop at the desired label.

6. Press and release the Talk key to save the selection. The display shows Zn#? to prompt you to select the next zone.

7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 for the remaining zones.

Press and release the Setup button to exit the procedure. You can then go to the Door Name

Procedure by pressing the Next key or press the Setup button again to exit the main menu.

Note: If you aren’t sure which zone an ISK2 keypad is connected to, you can find out by observing the keypad’s display when powering up the system. When a hub is powered up, each keypad connected to that hub briefly indicates

Page, then indicates the port and hub number to which it is connected. For example, an indication of P4:H2 shows the keypad is connected to port 4 on hub 2. This indication remains for 3 seconds, then reverts to Page.

Zones are numbered sequentially starting with hub 1, port 1. Table 5 shows zone numbers and port assignments.

INSTALLER SECTION

System Functions

Detailed function descriptions

ComPoint routes communications by switching its audio bus to the keypads and door stations.

All switching takes place in the hub(s). The hub switches the bus to either the microphone or the amplifier in a keypad or door station, depending on the direction of the communication.

For example, when you start an intercom session, the system switches the bus to the microphone in the sending keypad and the keypad amplifier in the selected receiving zone. For the reply, it reverses the connection so the microphone in the receiving keypad is connected to the amplifier in the sending keypad.

Communication priority levels

Certain communication events take priority over others for proper system operation. Each function has a priority level based on its application.

If two identical levels of communication overlap, the first to occur has priority.

System functions have the following priorities:

Door station call

Paging

Intercom

Listen mode

Top priority

(supersedes all other events)

Intermediate priority

Low priority

Paging

Paging is the default system function. To send a page, all one needs to do is press and hold the

Talk key and speak, as long as the keypad is not indicating a selected zone or door station.

Since a page is a system-wide broadcast, no zone selection is necessary.

When a page is sent, the audio bus connects to the microphone in the sending zone and the amplifiers in all other zones that are not in DND mode. All keypads indicate which zone is sending the page for 30 seconds after the Talk key in the sending zone is released.

During this 30-second time frame, anyone in a receiving zone can reply to the page by holding in the Talk key and speaking. This switches the audio bus to the microphone in the receiving zone and the amplifier in the sending zone. The reply is heard only in the sending zone.

With paging, pressing the Talk key causes a single ping tone to sound in the receiving zones to signal the beginning of the announcement.

Releasing the Talk key sounds a double ping to signal the end of the announcement.

Zones in DND mode don’t receive a page audio signal but do indicate the sending zone. Also, pages are never sent to door stations.

Thus, paging is not allowed when the audio bus is being used for an intercom session or a door station call. Similarly, an intercom session is not allowed when a door call or page is in progress.

However, paging and intercom can interrupt Listen mode, and door station calls can interrupt all other communications. DND mode blocks all levels of communication to a zone in that mode.

Intercom

Intercom is a point-to-point communication that involves only two zones, unlike a page which is system wide. For ease of use, the intercom function allows hands-free replies as well as manual replies with the Talk key.

INSTALLER SECTION

System Functions

Intercom (cont’d)

The intercom function requires first selecting a target zone. This is done by pressing a zone key on the ISK1 Basic Keypad or scrolling to a zone label on the ISK2 Advanced Keypad. After selecting a zone, the user may press the Talk key to begin communication.

If an invalid zone (one that has no keypad) is selected on an ISK1 Basic Keypad, the zone key blinks rapidly for 7 seconds. Pressing another zone key selects another zone. After a valid target zone is selected, pressing the same zone key deselects it.

If a zone in DND mode is selected on an ISK1

Basic Keypad, the zone key and DND key blink rapidly for 7 seconds when the Talk key is pressed.

With the ISK2 Advanced Keypad, only valid zones (ones with keypads connected) appear in the zone list on the display. If a zone in DND mode is selected, the display alternately shows the zone label and DND at 1-second intervals and the DND key blinks rapidly for 7 seconds. A selected zone can be deselected by selecting

Page or another zone.

When receiving an intercom message, the target keypad indicates the sending zone. This indication remains for a 37-second reply period after the Talk key on the sending keypad is released.

There are two ways to reply to an intercom message with either type of keypad: a handsfree reply within 7 seconds and using the Talk key within 30 seconds thereafter. When the Talk key on the sending keypad is released, both the sending and target keypads sound a single ping and the target keypad permits a hands-free reply by activating its microphone for 7 seconds. During this period the Talk key on the target keypad is lit red to indicate the microphone is active.

After the 7 seconds, a double ping in both the sending and target zones indicates the end of the hands-free reply period. A reply may still be made by pressing and holding the Talk key within the next 30 seconds. After the 30 seconds, a reply can no longer be made, but a person in the receiving zone can start a new intercom session to the original sender.

Each time a Talk key in either zone is released, a single ping is heard in the other zone and the

7- and 30-second reply periods are renewed.

Door station call

Communication with the door stations is similar to an intercom session, though there are significant differences. First, a door station has no ability to select a target zone. Instead, it simply rings the doorbell and a person in any zone can reply. Second, for privacy reasons the system doesn’t allow a hands-free reply to a door station call from the interior keypads. The reply can be made only by pressing and holding the

Talk key.

When the Call key on a door station is pressed, each hub instructs all connected keypads that aren’t in DND mode to activate their speaker relays and connects the audio bus to their amplifiers. If a doorbell chime is selected on hub 1, the chime is played through the speaker outputs on those keypads and through the internal speakers in the door stations.

27

28

INSTALLER SECTION

System Functions

Door station call (cont’d)

Pressing the Call key also causes the doorbell contacts to close for a minimum of 4 seconds to activate a separate doorbell or other device connected to the door station. The actual time varies with the doorbell selection on hub 1; the contacts remain closed for the duration of the selected chime.

Also, all keypads indicate which door station is calling, regardless of whether or not they’re in

DND mode. The indication remains for 15 seconds, during which the door station is selected at each keypad for reply.

Within the 15 seconds, a person at any keypad can then speak with the person at the door while holding in the Talk key. If the 15 seconds pass before the Talk key is pressed, the person inside will need to first select the door station on the keypad and then press the Talk key to start a new session. This will not activate the doorbell chime.

When a door call is answered from inside, the release of the Talk key at the keypad triggers a single ping at the door station to let the caller know they can reply. The person at the door station has a 7-second window for a hands-free reply after the single ping. The caller has the option of speaking within the 7 seconds or pressing and holding the Call key to speak longer. Holding in the Call key keeps the audio bus switched to the door station’s microphone.

If the 7-second hands-free window ends before the caller presses the Call key to speak, the door station sounds a double ping indicating the audio bus has opened. At this point the caller must press the Call key again to request another session if they wish to speak longer. This also rings the doorbell again.

Door strike release

The optional ISDR1 Door Strike Release module can be activated from any keypad at any time.

When activated, the module stays active for 3 seconds, confirmed by a buzz tone at the keypad and the door station.

On an ISK1 Basic Keypad, the module is activated by pressing and holding the appropriate door key for 3 seconds.

When a communication session is active between a door station and an ISK2 Advanced

Keypad, the module can be activated by pressing and holding both the Previous and Next keys for 3 seconds. If no session is active, the door will first need to be selected on the keypad.

Listen mode

Listen mode is a system state in which one keypad has a constantly active microphone and one or more other keypads are receiving its audio signal. This mode is subject to temporary interruption when the system is used for paging, intercom, or door station sessions.

Selecting a keypad’s own zone connects its microphone to the audio bus 2 seconds after the selection is made. That zone then becomes the sending zone for Listen mode. The keypad’s

Talk key lights up red to indicate the microphone is on. In addition, the zone key on an

ISK1 Basic Keypad blinks red and the display on an ISK2 Advanced Keypad shows MicOn.

If another zone is already selected as a sending zone for Listen mode, the keys on the Basic

Keypad for both the active zone and the desired zone alternately blink red for 7 seconds to indicate which zone’s microphone is active. The

Advanced Keypad alternately displays the active zone and MicOn for 7 seconds.

INSTALLER SECTION

System Functions

Listen mode (cont’d)

Selecting the sending zone on other keypads connects their amplifiers to the audio bus so they can listen to the sending zone.

Listen mode can be used with DND in the same zone as long as Listen mode is enabled first.

On either type of keypad, selecting a zone other than its own disables Listen mode.

Because Listen mode is the lowest priority communication, it can be interrupted by other functions, including an intercom session from the Listen mode sending keypad. When Listen mode is interrupted, the sending and receiving keypads give a system busy indication until the interruption is over.

If the audio bus is not available, attempting to activate a keypad’s microphone for Listen mode will result in a system busy indication.

Do Not Disturb (DND) mode

Placing a zone in Do Not Disturb (DND) mode prevents the audio bus from being switched to the keypad amplifier in that zone. Thus, that zone will not receive any pages, intercom calls, door station calls, or doorbell chimes (unless a separate doorbell is used). However, DND mode will not prevent the zone from receiving audio from a multiroom audio system.

The volume setting in effect when a zone is put in DND mode is retained when DND is disabled.

DND mode can be used in conjunction with

Listen mode as long as Listen mode is selected first. If DND is selected first, pressing any key to enable Listen mode will exit DND mode.

When a zone attempts an intercom session with a zone that is in DND mode, the DND key on the sending keypad blinks red for 7 seconds after the Talk key is pressed. Also, on the ISK1

Basic Keypad, the zone key for the zone in DND mode blinks red.

Audible keypad volume level indication

When the audio bus is inactive, pressing the

Volume Up or Volume Down key on a keypad sounds a ping tone to audibly indicate the keypad’s output level. As volume is increased the ping tone gets louder and vice versa. Once the volume adjustment reaches either end of the range, the ping tone no longer sounds.

Keypad backlight

The keypad backlighting comes on whenever any system function is activated and goes off after 60 seconds of system inactivity.

System busy

If someone attempts to start a page or intercom session when the system is busy, the Talk key on the keypad blinks red for 7 seconds to indicate the system is unavailable. The ISK2

Advanced Keypad display also flashes Busy at the same time.
