OPERATING AN INTERFACE

FRAME

An interface converts central matrix signals into other forms to communicate with telephones, camera intercoms, two-way radios, and other devices.

INTERFACE FRAMES AND MODULES

An interface module converts the 4-wire signals transmitted from a central matrix port to other types of signals that communicate with such external devices as telephones, camera intercoms, two-way radios, and so on.

To house these interface modules, Clear-Com offers three interface frames:

• The IMF-3 interface frame

• The IMF-102 interface frame

• The DIF-102 interface frame

IMF-3 INTERFACE MODULE FRAME

An IMF-3 interface module frame:

• Houses up to 11 Eclipse matrix interface modules.

• Installs in 3 rack units (3 RU) of a standard 19-inch wide (48.26 cm) equipment rack.

• Provides power to its interfaces through the externally connected PSU-101 power supply.

Front Panel

The front panel of the IMF-3 frame contains 11 slots for inserting interfaces.

Figure 1-1 shows an unpopulated IMF-3 frame. (When unpopulated, an

interface slot is covered with a blank panel.)

PSU-101 Power Supply

Powering an IMF-3 frame’s interfaces requires an externally connected PSU-101 power supply. Each Eclipse central matrix contains its own power supplies and does not supply any power for interfaces.

A single PSU-101 provides enough DC voltage to power the interfaces in two

IMF-3 frames, depending on the type of interfaces present and their individual power requirements. Additional PSU-101 power supplies can be installed for redundancy.

The PSU-101 installs in one rack unit (1 RU) of a standard 19-inch wide (48.26 cm) equipment rack. Chapter 2, "Powering Interfaces," provides more information on installing and operating the PSU-101 power supply.

Modular Connector Panels

The rear panel of the IMF-3 interface frame holds up to 11 separate connector panels, one for each interface module installed in the frame. Each connector panel holds two RJ-45 sockets for connecting an interface module to matrix ports, and two DB-9 sockets for connecting an interface module to non-4-wire devices.

Figure 1-2 illustrates the rear panel of an IMF-3 interface frame, with 11

connector panels installed.

DIF-102 DIGITAL-STATION INTERFACE MODULE FRAME

The DIF-102 interface frame has slots for two digital DIG-2 interface modules in one rack unit (1 RU) of a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) equipment rack.

DIG-2 interface modules allow the matrix to connect to digital versions of

Clear-Com intercom stations.

The DIF-102 frame is powered by one or two (for redundancy) external AC mains to 24-VDC power supplies via locking DIN connectors on the DIF-102’s rear panel. All other voltages are derived directly or indirectly from the 24 VDC on the DIG-2 module’s front and rear cards.

The DIF-102 should be located in the same building as the Eclipse frame. It can be located up to 3,000 feet (1000 meters) from an Eclipse frame.

Note: When hot-plugging any other card in the IMF-3 interface frame all AES-6 cards in the interface frame should be reset to ensure correct operation.

INTERFACES SUPPORTED FOR DIF-102 DIGITAL-STATION INTERFACE

FRAME

A DIF-102 interface frame holds two DIG-2 digital-station interface modules. A

DIG-2 digital-station interface module allows the matrix to communicate with two Clear-Com digital intercom stations. It converts the matrix’s analog port signals to digital signals for the connected digital stations.

DIG-2 interfaces are only supported by the DIF-102 interface frame and should not be fitted to any other interface frame.

The stations supported by the DIG-2 interface are:

• ICS-92T

• ICS-102T

• ICS-2003T

The ICS-92T and ICS-102T stations are standard versions of the stations with the COM-10 communications module replaced by a COM-20 module. The

ICS-2003T requires different firmware in addition to the COM-20 module.

I N T E R F A C E F R A M E S I N S T R U C T I O N M A N U A L

Each interface frame has provisions for power

"redundancy," so that if a power supply fails, or if a branch of AC mains fails, the frame’s interfaces will receive power from an alternate source.

POWERING INTERFACES

INTRODUCTION

Each interface frame is powered by AC mains electric current transformed into the appropriate DC voltage by a power supply, either external or internal to the product. Each interface frame has provisions for power "redundancy," so that if a power supply fails, or if a branch of AC mains fails, the frame’s interfaces will receive power from an alternate source.

POWER SUPPLIES

Interfaces require a power supply to transform the alternating current (AC) at the mains electric outlet to an appropriately lower direct current (DC). The

IMF-102 interface frame has an internal power supply, while the DIF-102 frame has external power supplies via DIN connectors on the frame’s rear panel. The

IMF-3 frame requires an external power supply.

REDUNDANT POWER

Each interface frame is equipped with an additional socket for connecting a second power-supply unit. Using two power-supply units, each connected to a separate branch of AC mains power, provides redundancy in the event of a power failure in one the AC mains branches.

Connecting two power-supply units to an interface frame also insures that a frame’s interfaces will continue to receive power if one or more of the power outputs in the power supplies fail.

The IMF-102 has an internal power supply. The

DIF-102 has external power supplies via DIN connectors on the frame’s rear panel.

The IMF-102 requires an external power supply.

POWERING INTERFACES IN AN IMF-102 FRAME

An internal power supply provides DC voltage to the interfaces housed in an

IMF-102 frame. The internal power supply requires 90 to 250 VAC with a maximum dissipation of 20 watts.

A 10-pin Jones-type socket for connecting an additional power supply is located on the rear panel of the IMF-102 unit. Connecting an additional power supply provides redundancy in the event of a power failure in AC mains (if each power supply is connected to a separate branch of AC mains) or in the event of equipment failure.

Figure 2-5 shows the location of the 10-pin Jones-type socket for connecting a

second power supply unit.

Two green lights on the IMF-102 frame’s front panel illuminate to show the presence of DC power at the frame.The two lights represent the plus and minus analog power supplies used by some interfaces.

POWERING INTERFACES IN A DIF-102 FRAME

The DIF-102 interface frame is powered by one or two (for redundancy) external

AC mains to 24-VDC power supplies via locking DIN connectors on the

DIF-102’s rear panel. All other voltages are derived directly or indirectly from the input 24 VDC on the DIG-2 front and rear cards.

You can connect an external alarm to the DIF-102 frame with the output provided by the Form C relay change-over contacts made available on a 9-way make D connector on the DIF-102 rear panel.

POWERING INTERFACES IN AN IMF-3 FRAME

The IMF-3 frame requires the external PSU-101 power supply to operate. One

PSU-101 power supply will provide power to two IMF-3 frames or more, depending on the type of interfaces installed. You can connect an additional

PSU-101 for redundancy. Once installed, the power supply requires very little attention.

This following sections describe the operation and installation of the PSU-101 power supply, and describes in detail how the PSU-101 powers the interfaces in an IMF-3 frame.

THE PSU-101 POWER SUPPLY

Each PSU-101 power supply contains two separate 9-VDC regulated power outputs. Each power output features adjustable output voltage. If voltage adjustment is necessary, set the outputs for 9 VDC ± 0.1 V under a 1-ampere load (this manual refers to the output voltages as 8 V; the voltages presented to the frame below the blocking diodes is actually about 8.4 to 8.5 V).

The two outputs provide "plus" and "minus" voltage for the frame’s interfaces.

Green status lights on the PSU-101’s front panel illuminate steadily to indicate that the power outputs are operating correctly.

I N T E R F A C E F R A M E S I N S T R U C T I O N M A N U A L

Each output of the PSU-101 features a fuse as listed below:

• + analog 3.0 amps

• – analog 3.0 amps

The PSU-101 features a variety of failure indicators, including:

• An audible alarm with a front panel disable switch.

• Relay contacts that can be wired to an external alarm.

Two PSU-101 units can operate in parallel to provide redundant power—if one supply fails, the entire system can continue operating while the faulty supply is replaced. Internal diodes isolate the supplies. Each IMF-3 frame has two paralleled connectors, which allows you to connect the frame to another IMF frame or another PSU-101 power suppply.

A PSU-101 requires 90 to 260 VAC at 45 to 65 Hz with a maximum dissipation of 80 W. A PSU-101 connected for redundancy requires very little AC current unless it is used.

PSU-101 Front-Panel Controls and Lights

The front panel of the PSU-101 power supply features two power status lights, two fuses, and an on-off switch for the internal audible alarm.

This output provides negative voltage for the analog circuits in the IMF-3 frame.

If it fails, system audio would become inoperative or distorted. The green power status light goes out to indicate failure in this output.

Fuses

The PSU-101 unit’s front panel has a fuse holder for each of the two power outputs. If one of the front-panel power status light goes out, pull the appropriate fuse holder out from the front panel and check the fuse. Spare fuses are provided in the fuse holder if you need to replace a fuse.

Note: Clear-Com purchases the regulated power supply module used in the PSU-

101 as a finished unit. We have no schematics for the module because the manufacturer does not supply them. If the unit fails, the only repair that can be performed is to replace the unit’s input fuse.

Audible Alarm

Turning the "audible alarm" switch to "on" causes an internal alarm to sound if one of the two power outputs fail. Turning the switch to "off" prevents the internal alarm from sounding.

Note: The internal alarm is powered from the +8-volt output; if that output fails, the alarm will not work, unless two PSU-101 units are used for redundancy. In redundant operation, if one supply fails, maintenance personnel will be alerted before the second supply can fail. (An external alarm connected to the unit’s alarm relay contacts will sound if either of the outputs fails. See "Alarm Relay," in "PSU-101 Rear-Panel Connectors," below.

I N T E R F A C E F R A M E S I N S T R U C T I O N M A N U A L

Using two PSU-101 units, each connected to a separate branch of AC power, provides redundancy in the event of a power failure in one the AC mains branches.

Alarm Relay

The 4-pin Jones-type connector contains a set of relay contacts that you can wire to an external alarm. The contacts will close, and sound the external alarm, any time one of the two power outputs in the PSU-101 becomes inoperable.

Clear-Com recommends that you connect these contacts to the external alarm input of the central matrix frame. If either of the power supplies in the PSU-101 fails, it would cause a system alarm. Status lights on the front of the PSU-101 unit will indicate the failure.

The pin configuration of the alarm relay connector is as follows:

Table 2-1: Pin Assignments of PSU-101’s Alarm Relay Connector

Power to Interface Frame (2 Connectors for Redundancy)

Each PSU-101 has two 10-pin Jones-type sockets for connecting DC power cords from the PSU-101 to an interface frame. The factory supplies a DC power cord with each IMF-3 frame.

The second socket is provided for systems that require backup power in case of a failure in one of the PSU-101’s power outputs. If your system has been wired for redundant operation, a system will not fail if any one or more of an individual

PSU-101's two power outputs fails. The audible alarm and the remote alarm (if wired) will sound, warning you that one or more of the power supply's outputs has failed and needs attention.

You can also use the 10-pin Jones-type sockets for connecting DC power cords between interface frames, in cases where two frames are powered by one

PSU-101 power supply.

Figure 2-8 below shows how to connect DC power cords between the power

supplies and the interface frames. The illustration on the left shows one PSU-101 unit and two IMF-3 frames. The illustration on the right shows three IMF-3 frames connected to two PSU-101s for redundancy. All of the frames are

Figure 2-8: Wiring Power Supplies to Interface Frames

INSTALLING THE PSU-101 POWER SUPPLY

The PSU-101 requires one rack unit (1 RU) in a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack. Allow at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) of clearance behind the PSU-101 to plug in cables.

CAUTION: For thermal and safety considerations, when the PSU-101 power supply is mounted on an equipment rack:

• Leave one full rack space (1.75 in. or 4.4 cm) above the unit and one full rack space below the unit.

• Do not block the ventilation holes.

• Leave at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) of clearance behind the unit.

PSU-101 POWERING OF INTERFACES IN AN IMF-3 FRAME

As a rule-of-thumb, one PSU-101 power supply unit is required for every two

IMF-3 frames.There are two exceptions to this rule. The first exception occurs when the frames have a large number of CCI-22 party-line interfaces which require no DC power from the IMF-3 frame. However, an IMF-3 with only

CCI-22 interfaces still needs to be connected to a PSU-101 as the IMF-3 frame itself needs some DC power for the circuitry on its rear panel.

The second exception occurs when using multiple TEL-14 telephone interfaces.

An IMF-3 interface frame will only power eight TEL-14 interfaces. If more TEL-

I N T E R F A C E F R A M E S I N S T R U C T I O N M A N U A L

14 interfaces are required, you must install them in a second IMF-3 frame with a second power supply.

A PSU-101 requires 90 to 260 VAC at 45 to 65 Hz with a maximum dissipation of 80 W. A PSU-101 connected for redundancy requires very little AC current unless it is used.

Installing two PSU-101 power supplies per application provides redundancy because either of the two PSU-101 power supplies can power a complete system.

If one fails, it can be removed without interruption of the entire system. Rear panel connectors provide easy parallel connection to the IMF-3 Interface Module

Frame.

The current capacities of the power supplies are as follows:

• 9 V analog 3.0 amperes

• -9 V analog 3.0 amperes

The following chart provides the current drain of the +/- analog power supplies for all components in the system. Some devices, such as interfaces, have a varying current depending on the operation of features. In applications where it is possible to activate all operating features of all components used, use the maximum current column for planning.

INSTALLATION

PLACING INTERFACE FRAMES AND POWER SUPPLIES

It is important to place an interface frame in a convenient location, so that you can access the controls on the front panel and the connectors on the rear panel.

Leave at least 2 inches (5 cm) of clearance at the rear of an interface frame to allow for cable connectors and access to rear-panel controls.

Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose an interface frame to rain or moisture.

Usually interface module frames are located near the matrix, but they can be located farther away. The maximum recommended distance between an Eclipse matrix and an IMF-3 or IMF-102 interface frame is 500 feet (150 meters). The

DIF-102 interface frame can be located up to 3,000 feet (1000 meters) from an

Eclipse matrix. The DIF-102 should be located in the same building as the

Eclipse matrix.

The only interface frame that requires an external power supply is the IMF-3.

You can connect an additional external power supply to the IMF-3 interface frame to provide redundancy in the event of power outages or equipment failure.

The IMF-102 frame has an internal power supply with a connector for an additional power supply. The DIF-102 frame is powered by one or two (for redundancy) external AC mains to 24-VDC power supplies via locking DIN connectors on the DIF-102’s rear panel.

If redundant PSU-101 power supplies are used for interfaces, mount them together. It is required that you leave an extra rack unit (1.75 in. or 44.45 mm) above and below each external power-supply unit. This allows for needed cooling for larger system loads.

For detailed information on power-supply requirements, refer to Chapter 2,

“Powering Interfaces.”

1. Remove the interface frame from its shipping carton.

2. Remove the blank plates from the front and rear of the slot in which an interface module will be installed.

3. Install the interface module in the appropriate slot. Advance the front half of interface along the guides in the front part of the slot until it connects to the midplane connector. Slide the rear half of the interface along the guides in the rear part of the slot, until it connects to the midplane connector.

4. Install the provided screws on the front and rear panels of the interface module you have just installed, to secure the interface module in place in the frame.

5. If you are installing a second interface module, repeat steps 2, 3, and 4 for that module.

6. Install the interface frame in the 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack.

7. Secure the interface frame in the rack with the four provided front-panel screws.

IMF-102 ONLY.

Connect a redundant PSU-101 power supply if necessary.

Connect the PSU-101 power supply to the 10-pin Jones connector on the rear panel of the interface frame. See "PSU-101 Power Supply" below for instructions on safely installing and placing the power supply.

PSU-101 POWER SUPPLY

A PSU-101 can power the interfaces in up to two IMF-3 interface frames, and possibly more, depending on the mix of interface modules and anticipated usage.

It also can provide backup power for an IMF-102 interface frame. See Chapter 2,

"Powering Interfaces," for more information.

I N T E R F A C E F R A M E S I N S T R U C T I O N M A N U A L

The PSU-101 requires one rack unit (1 RU) in a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack. Allow at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) of clearance behind the PSU-101 to plug in cables.

Connect DC power cable from the 10-pin Jones-type connector on the rear of the PSU-101 power supply to the 10-pin Jones-type connector on the rear of an interface frame. See Chapter 2, "Powering Interfaces," for more information.

CAUTION: For thermal and safety considerations, when the PSU-101 power supply is mounted in an equipment rack:

• Leave one full rack space (1.75 in. or 4.4 cm) above the unit and one full rack space below the unit.

• Do not block the ventilation holes.

• Leave at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) of clearance behind the unit.
