DC 6 V. Use PS—2S (CS—12A in North America) power supply per system. If one master
only is used in a system which includes several sub stations, power supply PS—3 (CS—6A in
North America) may be used; or, units may be powered by 4 standard “D” batteries placed
in each LC—5S or LC—lOS, and 4 standard “C” batteries placed in each LC—3S.
160 mA plus N X 40 mA for an entire system. (N shows number of master stations.)
LC-3S
220 mw, 20i2
LC-5S and LC-1 OS 400 mw, 20D.
Push button station selection. Occupied and on lamps indicate when the system is in use.
Up to 16 conductor cable may be required. Please refer to the instructions and wiring diagrams
