7.0 Configuring The External Paging Interface
A special transformer-isolated external paging port, located on the services board, provides system interface for
an external paging amplifier. Connect a customer-supplied paging amplifier to the PAGE jack as shown in
illustration.
Remember, the Services board provides relay actuation dry-contact terminals that you can use for controlling the
external paging amplifier. Of course, you must make the necessary wiring arrangements to match the control that
you want to occur.
Once you have made the necessary wiring connections, you may either:
•
program any of the relays to provide dry-contact actuation that will turn on the paging amplifier for as long as
the paging port is active,
•
or program any of the relays to use their dry-contact actuations to track line ringing signals sent from the paging
port. (This is useful for turning the amplifier on and off to sound these ringing signals.)
CAUTION
Do not exceed a 1 amp at 24 volts (0.5 amp at 48 volts) load on these control terminals. If the load
requirements exceed this limit, connect the load through an external slave relay. DO NOT CONNECT
THESE CONTROL TERMINALS DIRECTLY TO THE 120VAC LINE.
