50 Tempest®24 00 2 -Channel Wireless Intercom System
Wired Intercom Interface to the BaseStati on
Each of Tempest’s twohardwired intercom channels can interface with a 4-Wire matrix intercom or a 2-Wire party-line
intercom. Tempest supports a 4-Wire intercom interface to most major digital matrix intercom systems and other intercom
4-Wire devices. Tempest also interfaces with 2-Wire intercom systems including Clear-Com, RTS, and AudioCom (BAL)
systems, as well as compati ble brands. Each Tempest intercom channel can interface with one intercom system at any given
ti me.
While it is possible that both 2-Wire and 4-Wire systems may be connected to the same intercom channel simultaneously,
they cannot functi on at the same ti me, and this arrangement has the potenti al to cause undesirable operati onal
complicati ons, so is not recommended.
