Mounting
For enhanced protection against static
electrical discharge, it is recommended
the VIP-9890A-EM-IC Speaker Enclosure
be installed onto a grounded electrical box, If
surface mounted, ground box to local ground.
The VIP-9890A-EM-IC speaker enclosure is
designed for double gang FD electrical box
mounting and must be within 100 meters of the
network switch.
Remove the speaker assembly from the packing
container. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove
the screws securing the front grille to the
enclosure. Unplug the patch cable connecting
the speaker to the network board Signal Output
RJ-45 jack to allow removal of grille/speaker
assembly. Pre-drilled 13/64” mounting holes in
the back of the enclosure are designed to fit a
single gang, double gang or octagon outlet box.
If not attaching to an outlet box, use the
enclosure as a template. Hold the enclosure in
the desired position on the wall and mark the
location of mounting holes. Depending on wall
construction type, prepare the mounting hole
locations on the wall to securely attach the
enclosure.
Wiring may be inserted through the large hole in
the back of the enclosure, or through the
knockout hole in the top of the enclosure. Insert
wiring for network connections and relay
connections (if used) through desired hole. Use
mounting hardware (not included) appropriate for
the wall type to securely mount the enclosure to
the wall.
After making all connections, align the
grille/speaker assembly with the enclosure.
Install the four supplied tamper-resistant screws
through the grille into the enclosure. Use a 1/8”
security hex bit to tighten the screws securely.
Power Connections
The only method of powering a VIP-9890A-EM-IC
is via a Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch or
power injector meeting the 802.3af specification.
Make all required connections before connecting
to Ethernet switch or power injector meeting the
802.3af specification.
Network Board Connections
The VIP-9890A-EM-IC network board has one
RJ-45 NETWORK connector and one RJ-45
Signal Output connector. Use a standard
Ethernet patch cable to connect the NETWORK
connector of the VIP-9890A-EM-IC network
board to an Ethernet switch. A patch cable is
provided that connects the Signal Output
connector to the speaker board RJ-45 connector.
Door Relay Connections
Access to the form C relay is provided via a
three-pin screw terminal block on the VIP-9890A-
EM-IC speaker. The common contact is the
middle terminal. The Normally Open contact is
on the side labeled NO, the Normally Closed
contact is labeled NC.
Status Indicator Lights
The VIP-9890A-EM-IC network board has 2
status indication lights on the Ethernet connector:
Green LED:
(Link) Indicates Ethernet
connection when illuminated.
Yellow LED:
(Activity) Indicator flashes to
indicate network activity.
Setup
The VIP-9890A-EM-IC will automatically acquire
an IP address (using DHCP) and connect to the
InformaCast server when connected to the
network and powered up. Information specific
to your application will need to be programmed
into the InformaCast server. Refer to the
InformaCast documentation for further
Information.
Programming for optional features, such as Relay
activation, can be entered using the VIP-102B IP
Solutions setup tool. The VIP-102B
Programming tool may be downloaded from the
Valcom website at
