General
The 69552 SmartSeries PCBA adds microprocessor control to the ICS Page/Party ® station, providing
additional sensor and monitoring capabilities. SmartSeries and VLC PCBAs cannot be installed in the
same station.
Features
When used with or without ADVANCE head-end equipment:
 Ambient Level Sensing (ALS) circuitry automatically changes the local speaker’s paging volume in
response to varying background noise
 Off-hook timeout prevents noise being introduced to a party line by electronically placing the handset
“on-hook” after 8 minutes
 Page timeout limits a single page broadcast to two minutes, freeing the page line for emergencies
When used with ADVANCE head-end equipment:
 Station monitoring of key components (including handset, amplifier and local speaker) provides fast
notification of any faults
 Ability to accept supervised contact closure inputs and provide a supervised relay output (requires
RTU option)
