Removing the Old System

 

Prior to removing the existing intercom system make sure all power is 
turned off at the intercom location. Remove the screws from the 
intercom master and while removing the intercom, make sure to 
carefully label each wire with its corresponding room location. 
Disconnect all the room station and door station wires from the 
master. Then carefully remove the existing wall housing and 
transformers.  
If the existing system was not working prior to replacement, check 
each wire run between the room stations and master for shorts and 
wiring integrity. If one of these room station to master wire runs has a 
short, re-run that wire prior to installing the dmc3-4. When replacing 
wire runs use M&S Systems MS4XSC shielded wire. This wire will work 
for both 3 and 4-wire installations. On 4-wire installations use the wire 
as is and on 3-wire runs do not use the white wire.  
Note: if you encounter 120VAC running through the existing wall 
housing, have a qualified electrician reroute the 120VAC around the 
wall housing.  
If you encounter a remote transformer, an additional electrical run 
may have to be made by a qualified electrician to power the dmc 
master and/or optional CD player. Also check to make sure that the 
area around the housing is clear of any additional 120VAC runs or 
other obstructions. 

Installing the Wall 
Housing 

 

The dmc1H and dmc1HC housings are 
designed for 16” on center studs. You 
may encounter stud spacings that vary 
from this standard. Use the dmc1H housing 
when you are replacing an existing system 
with an intercom only system. The dmc1HC housing is used for
