ALLOWABLE CONFIGURATIONS
You can connect one i-Series panel expansion panel and up to four
v-stations to an i-series intercom panel. To form a valid configuration,
you cannot connect more than two v-stations together in the
“daisy-chain.”
The following table shows all panel combinations which form a valid
configuration. A configuration starts with the main panel, which is an
i-Series panel with four display key modules, and proceeds with the
various combinations of i-Series panel expansion panels and
v-stations. The “expansion out” connector of each panel connects to
the “expansion in” connector of the next panel in the configuration,
forming a “daisy-chain.”
In the table “main i-Series panel” refers to an i-Series panel with four
display key modules, “i-expansion” refers to an i-Series panel
expansion panel with four display key modules, and “v-station” refers
to a v-station expansion panel.
Table 5-1: All Possible Valid Configurations of v-Stations
A FULLY POPULATED CONFIGURATION
Figure 5-4 shows an example of a fully populated configuration, as the
configuration would appear in an equipment rack. Figure 5-5 shows
how to connect the panels together with CAT-5 cable.
You can remove any of the v-stations in a fully populated system
without affecting the key assignments of the remaining v-stations.
