ICS 1008E/1016E Intercom Panel Instruction Manual 2 - 1
INSTALLATION
This chapter describes the installation procedure of the ICS-1016E
and ICS-1008E Panels and their associated EXP-1016E expansion
panel. For operation information, see chapter 1 of this manual; for
troubleshooting and maintenance information, see chapter 3 of this
manual and for programming information, see the Eclipse
Configuration System manual.
EQUIPMENT MOUNTING
ICS-1016E/ICS-1008E
Put all intercom panels at a comfortable operational height. Leave at
least 2 in. of clearance at the rear of the panel’s chassis to allow for
cable connectors and access to the rear-panel controls.
EXP-1016E
The EXP-1016E is intended to expand or enhance the panels’
operation and usually mounted next to or near their associated panel.
A 6-ft. cable is supplied to connect them. Leave at least 2 in. of
clearance at the rear of the expansion panel’s chassis to allow for the
cable connector.
WIRING
ICS-1016E/ICS-1008E
The ICS-1016E/ICS-1008E uses a twisted, 4-pair transmission
scheme to connect it to the frame using the industry standard RJ-45
connector. Refer to the Eclipse Installation Manual for RJ-45 connector
installation and use, and the type of cable needed for connection
between panels and frames.
Each pair of the twisted, 4-pair wire has the following function:
• pair 1 transmits analog audio from the matrix port to the panel
• pair 2 transmits digital data from the panel back to the matrix card
port
• pair 3 transmits audio from the panel to the matrix card port
• pair 4 transmits digital data from the matrix port back to the panel.
