Call-In Switches
Two call-in switches, CA10A and CA11A, are recommended for use with the SI and PI. The CA10A is a momen-
tary push switch that has circuitry to light the annunciator light on the SBA225 room selector panel. The CA11A
has the same capability as the CA10A and includes a privacy lock-out position that inhibits the MCP35A control
panel from listening through the room speaker (it does not interfere with the ability to call the station from the
MCP35A). The wiring of the call switches is shown below.
Voice Call-In Feature
Voice call-in is not recommended for new installations. Pre-existing intercom systems may already have call-in
switches that are wired in parallel with all the other call-in switches. In this instance, the MCP35A voice call-in fea-
ture can be used. With this style of operation a room must press the call-in switch and speak into the room speak-
er. The built-in speaker in the MCP35A will monitor this call so that people near the control panel will hear it.
Typically the caller will say what room the call is being made from. The room selector switch for that room can then
be set for a two-way intercom conversation.
