ISO Test

1

Set DIP switch DS3 to off (two-channel, two-wire mode).

2

Set DIP switch DS5 to on (talk muted during ISO).

3

Set all TALK and LISTEN buttons to on.

4

Connect a 100 ohm resistor from the ISO input (J22 pin 12) to circuit common (J22 pin 10).
Observe that the MIC ON LED turns on and the channel 1 and 2 TALK buttons turn off.

5

Remove the 100 ohm resistor across the ISO input.

6

Reset DIP switch DS3 to on and DS5 to off.

Remote Mic Switch Test

1

Set all buttons to off.

2

Connect a 100 ohm resistor from the remote mic switch input (J22 pin 25) to circuit common
(J22 pin 10), and observe that the MIC ON LED turns on.

3

Remove the 100 ohm resistor.

Program Lockout Test

1

Set DIP switch DS4 to on (front panel setup lockout enabled).

2

Press and hold the CALL button for ten seconds, and verify that the MCE325 does not enter
program mode.

3

Reset DS4 to off.

Noise Checks

1

Connect a 150 ohm load across the dynamic mic input (J2 pins 1 and 2).

2

Connect an 8 ohm load across the speaker output.

3

Connect 51 ohm loads across the left headphone output (J2 pins 3 & 4) and right headphone
output (J2 pins 3 &5).

4

Terminate each intercom channel into 200 ohms.

5

Set the MIC ON button to on.

6

Set the SPKR ON button to on.

7

Set all other front panel buttons to off.

8

Set all volume controls to minimum.

Note: Noise measurements in the following steps were made using a 30 kHz low pass filter
with +20 dB of gain inserted between the AC voltmeter and the MCE325.

9

Set the CH 1-3 volume control to maximum. Measure noise across the left headphone output. It
should measure -44 dBu or less.

10

Set the CH 1-3 volume control to minimum and set the CH 2-4 volume control to maximum.
Measure noise across the right headphone output. It should measure –44 dBu or less.

11

Set the CH 2-4 volume control to minimum. Measure noise across the speaker output. The
meter should read –44 dBu or less.
