Station provides terminal blocks for field wiring. Each connection for the system

cable has two terminals for daisy-chain wiring. Attach #6 spade lugs to the wires before attachment to the
terminal blocks for the most secure connection. Torque the terminal block screws to 8–10 in-lbs.
(0.90–1.13 n-m) when attaching the spade lugs.

The terminal blocks on the Termination PCBA are labeled to coincide with the color code used on GAI-
Tronics 60029 series multi-party cable or 60038 series single party cable. Refer to Figure 6 for a sample
wiring diagram.

In certain circumstances where paging audio induces feedback, muting the speakers of two or more
stations during a page, referred to as mutual muting, can eliminate such feedback problems. This function
is enabled by connecting the spare orange wire between stations to terminal block TB4-2 or TB5-2.
