1. Introduction The PCM Paging Control System (see Figure 1-1) is an expandable zone paging and signaling system. The LUPCMALL consists of 4 pre-assembled modules: PCMTIM, PCMCPU, PCMTBM, and a Zone Paging Module (PCMZPM). To this, you can add up to two additional Zone Paging Modules (Model: LUPCMZONE, Pec Code 5323-108, Com Code 408186039) to increase system zone paging capacity to 9 zones.
1.2. Background Music • High/Low-Power distributed (buffered for up to 50 amplified speakers) • High/Low-Powered, using dedicated BGM amplifier • High/Low-Powered using a single paging/BGM amplifier • BGM Disable to individual zones • Local BGM input on each individual zone module 1.3.
2. Before You Start 2.1. Select Options Before setting up your system, use the checklist below to assist you in setting up and programming the PCM Paging Control System. ____ Type of Telephone Interface (loop start, ground start, page port, station port) (see System Wiring Connections, Section 5) ____ Total Number of Paging Zones (additional Zone Paging Modules or LUPCMADD Paging Control System Assemblies may be required) (see Installation, Section 3) ____ Zone Groups (see Section 11.
Figure 3-1: Rack Mounting the LUPCMALL Paging Control System [8]
3. Installation 3.1. Adding PCMZPM Modules The LUPCMALL is pre-assembled to accommodate 3 zones of paging. If your installation requires 4 to 9 zones, you can add one or two Zone Paging Modules (PCMZPM). A total of 3 PCMZPM modules (9 zones total) can be used on a LUPCMALL assembly. If your installation requires more than 9 zones, you will need one or more LUPCMADD units to allow system expansion beyond 9 zones. Install the extra PCMZPM modules before mounting and wiring the PCM System assemblies.
Figure 4-1: LUPCMALL Feature Callouts [10]
4. LUPCMALL Feature Callouts Descriptions and Locations Refer to Figure 4-1. 1. TEL INT SEL Switch Bank - Sets telephone interface type for the TEL LINE jack on the PCMTIM module (see Section 5). 2. POWER - Indicates that power has been supplied to the module. One exists on each module. 3. TONE VOLUME - Controls the level of all tones produced by the PCM system. 4. BGM SRC VOLUME - Sets background music level for one mode of operation.
15. TALK BACK Switch Bank - Determines if a 70V speaker zone will operate as a two-way hands-free talk back zone or as a one-way paging zone (see Section 8.3). 16. TALK BACK DELAY - Controls the amount of delay, after speaking stops, before the system switches to the listen mode during talk back operation (see Section 8.3). 17. TALK BACK VOLUME - Controls the audio level of the talk back signal (see Section 8.3). 18. NOISE REDUCTION - Enables or disables noise reduction during talk back listening.
❑ 5. System Wiring Connections 5.1. Telephone System Connections The PCMTIM module is the telephone interface module for the PCM Paging Control System. The PCMTIM provides the telephone interface (including talk battery), night ringer input, emergency over ride input, and auxiliary relay contacts for the system. The module is also responsible for all tone signaling features.
IMPORTANT: The polarity of the Tip & Ring contacts of the RJ11 jack for the Tel Line and Over Ride were chosen so that when a standard modular cord (one with the tops of both end plugs on the same side of the flat cable) is used to connect the PCM to a modular wall block, the modular block G (Tip) terminal will be positive with respect to the R (Ring) terminal.
4. Use 24-gauge solid wire to connect the GND ST terminal on the module to the PBX ground. This is typically the AC ground for the PBX system. IMPORTANT: It is very important that no other terminals of the PCM system connect to AC ground when using the ground start interface. Also, the case of the PCM system cannot be connected to AC ground. If the system is not working and no PCM terminals (except the GND ST terminal) are directly connected to AC ground, there may be an indirect connection.
The unit will also respond to CPC pulses (short losses of loop current). When a CPC pulse is detected, the unit will immediately drop the line. 1. Make sure that power is off and all connections completed before proceeding. 2. Move the TEL INT SEL (dip) switches on the module to the position shown in Figure 5-7 below. Use the tip of a pen or other pointed instrument to move the switches. Figure 5-7: Station Telephone Selector Switch 3.
The night ringer normally sounds a simulated ring tone but can be programmed to sound a chime tone. Refer to System Programming, Section 11 to set up a night ringer zone group or to change to ringer tone. To physically connect the night ringer wiring: 1. Make sure that power is off. 2. Plug a modular cord into the NIGHT RING (RJ11) jack. The center conductors of the plug are used for the 90V ring signal (see Figure 5-9). The flanking conductors are used for contact closure activation.

6. Paging Amplifier Connections The paging amplifier audio connections are made to the PCMTBM module terminal strip. If the amplifier has a paging control input, this is connected to the RLY TWO terminals on the PCMTIM module (see Figure 6-1). The paging amplifier must have a balanced 600-ohm input. The amplifier should be located close to the PCM system to keep cable lengths reasonably short. NOTE: To make all audio connections, use 22 AWG shielded, twisted pair on all wire runs.
[20]
7. Background Music The PCM system is very flexible in how it can provide background music throughout the system: • Background music can be continuously supplied to all zones not being paged. (Requires two amplifiers of the same power rating.) • Background music can be supplied by the same amplifier that is supplying paging. (Music input is available on amplifier.) • Background music can be supplied by same amplifier that is supplying paging. (No dedicated music input available on amplifier.
[22]
7.2. Background Music Continuously Supplied To All Zones Not Being Paged See Figure 7-1 on page 20 for connection with a high-powered background music source or Figure 7-2 on page 22 for connection with a low-powered background music source. NOTE: Requires second amplifier of the same power rating as the paging amplifier. NOTE: This configuration is not recommended for systems that will use zones with talk back. 7.3.

8. Zone Speaker Wiring and Setup 8.1. Wiring to 70V Speakers See Figure 8-2 on page 30 for wiring. NOTE: Make sure PCMZPM OUTPUT switch is set to HI PWR. To set the switch, remove the locking plate, place switch in desired position, and re-secure the locking plate. The locking plate can be rotated to match the switch setting. 8.2. Wiring to Self-Amplified Speaker or Dedicated Amplifier See Figure 8-3 on page 31 for wiring. NOTE: Make sure PCMZPM OUTPUT switch is set to LO PWR.

9. Optional Wiring 9.1. CPU to Emergency Signaling External input control is available to trigger a tone signal from the PCM over the paging system. Shorting EM/SC to the GND terminal will produce a user-programmed tone into a specific zone group. This feature is typically used to signal shift changes using a contact closure pair from an external master clock. The tone signal can be directed to a specific group of zones by programming them into the EM/SC zone group.

10. Power-Up of PCM and Associated Equipment 10.1. Power-Up Sequence All equipment in the paging system should remain off until the system wiring is completed. This is the recommended power-up sequence of the paging equipment after initial wiring: 1. Double check that all PCMZPM modules are set for the correct type of operation - HI PWR for 70V speakers or LO PWR for self-amplified speakers and dedicated amplifiers. 2. Turn all system volume controls to minimum. 3.

11. System Programming System programming lets you set certain PCM options and tone features using the DTMF keys of a telephone. It also lets you to program paging zone groups and signaling zone groups. All programming is accomplished through the TEL LINE jack on the PCMTIM module regardless of the telephone interface used.
11.1. Programming Paging Zone Groups 32 paging zone groups can be created. Each zone group can consist of up to 99 zones. To create a zone group: 1. Dial [*] followed by 2-digit number of zone group (01 - 32) you want to create. Follow this with the 2-digit number of the zones you want to include in the zone group.
11.6. Single Amp BGM Enable Single amplifier BGM operation lets the PCM use the paging amplifier to provide high-powered BGM to passive speakers when the paging system is idle. When this option is enabled, the BGM SRC terminals are connected to the paging amplifier's input and HPBGM bus is connected to the paging amplifier's output. As soon as the PCM System becomes active, the BGM SRC and HPBGM connections to the paging amplifier are removed and the amplifier is ready for paging.
11.11. Relay Contacts The PCM system provides a set of dual "C-form" contacts which can be used to activate external equipment. The relay contacts are rated at 2A @ 30V DC/0.6A @ 120V AC (resistive). The relay changes state whenever a zone is active, and stays in this state until the zone page is completed.

13. Paging: How To Use The PCM 13.1. Paging Zones The PCM system supports from 3 to 99 different paging zones (in groups of 3). It also supports up to 32 paging zone groups for voice paging application, and 11 zone groups for signalling applications (night ring, code call, EM/SC, 8 time triggers). Each zone group consists of 1 to 99 (user-programmed) zones. Paging zone groups are accessible by dialing a specific zone group number through the telephone.
13.5. How To Make A Code Call Code calling is the ability to activate a series of chime tones over a signalling zone group (the specific zones in the zone group are determined by the user - up to 99 zones). The PCM supports pattern and echo code calling. • Pattern Code Calling sounds a factory-set pattern of chime tones in response to a single keypad selection. • Echo Code Calling sounds chime tones that correspond to the actual 2-digit keypad numbers entered.
13.7. How To Make An Echo Code Call Refer to System Programming, Section 11, for instructions on how to activate this feature and to select the type of code call, and/or activate the auto repeat feature. 1. Dial the paging access number for your telephone system. 2. Listen for the confirmation tone if enabled (a double beep). 3. Press [#] and two number keys, then hang up. Example: [#] [3] [1] produces three tone bursts followed by a single tone burst. You must always enter two digits.

Appendix C: Glossary of Programmable Features 1-Amp BGM: Enabling this feature allows a single amp to provide background music (BGM) and paging throughout the system (BGM is lost in all zones during a zone page). This feature must be disabled when using a separate BGM amplifier and a paging amplifier. All-Call: System-wide all-call announcements made by dialing 00 can be inhibited. Clock Set: The real time clock in the PCM is set using a 24-hour time format with this feature.
Time Triggers (1-8): Eight separate time-triggered tones can be programmed into the PCM. A specific zone group can be programmed for each time-triggered tone, the time of the trigger, as well as the length or type of tone. Time tones can be inhibited and re-enabled without losing previously set trigger times. VOX Timer: The length of a silence interval before the PCM disconnects the page in station mode is set by this feature. It can be set in 1 second increments from 1-9 seconds.
