TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. 1. Introduction Introduction The TSAM Interface Module (TIB) is a member of the Monitoring and Control Network (MCN™) family of auxiliary modules. Hardware specifications, special installation, and configuration information are described in this manual. The TIB module is a control module that interfaces between a CIB module and CTI Product’s Transmitter Steering Audio Matrix (TSAM).

TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. 3.4 Theory of Operation Receiver Banks If the Comparator I/O Module that is associated with a TIB supports more than 8 receivers (it divides its receivers into multiple banks, as specified in the Receiver Banks section of reference 1), then the TIB must be configured so that its transmitters are associated with the proper receiver bank of the Comparator I/O Module.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. 4. Option Switches Option Switches Three sets of option switches are provided for module configuration. The module must be power cycled or reset after these switches are set so that the options will take effect. Table 2 describes the option switches and shows the factory defaults.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. Option Switches A TIB can monitor 8 receivers (one receiver bank) for FORCE VOTE information. Option switches 1 through 3 allow the TIB to associate its 8 transmitters with any receiver bank supported by the Comparator I/O Module. The settings for these switches is shown in Table 3.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. Option Switches Jumper E1A is located across the top 2 terminals of the 6 pin terminal block. Jumper E1B is located across the left side middle and bottom terminals of the 6 pin terminal block. The remaining 2 terminals of the block are unused. Jumper E1A E1B Function Reserved In for inputs pulled up to +5 Vdc. Out for inputs pulled up to +13.8 Vdc.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. 5. Connectors Connectors The NETWORK IN/OUT ports on the front of the TIB are used to connect the TIB with other MCN modules. These ports carry both the network data signals as well as DC power for power distribution with other modules. Table 4 gives the pinout for these connectors. Figure 6 shows the location of pin 1 for each port. PRODUCTS, INC.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. Connectors Connector J1 provides the discrete I/O for the TSAM interface. Table 6 gives the pinout for this connector. Table 5 describes the functions of the I/O signals. Signal TX Select Out Direction Input/Output Tx Select In Force Select Input Output Description Activated to select the transmitter to steer to. This signal is used as an Output only. Ground input to indicate the active transmitter(s).

TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. 6. Mounting Mounting Refer the reference 1, section Mounting Options, for details about mounting the TIB module. CAUTION Make sure that any mounting screws used to secure unit to a bracket do not protrude into the unit’s enclosure more than 1/8 inches from the bottom surface of the unit. Using a larger screw that touches the PC board inside the unit may damage the unit when it is powered. Doing so will void the unit’s warranty.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. Comparator Wiring Lists 7. Special Installation Instructions 7.1 Unit Address Setting A TIB must be programmed with two unit addresses: 1. the address of the CIB it will operate with 2. the TIB’s own address You only need to perform this programming once, at installation time.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. Comparator Wiring Lists For example, Figure 7 shows a system with a single TIB and CIB. The following steps show how the system might be setup, using the following address assignments: • CIB address is Group 00, Module 0 • TIB address is Group 01, Module 0 • HIB address is Group 80, Module 0 (this is set using the MCNCFG program running on the Local PC) Step 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 7 8 9 10 11 12 Action Connect the module’s NETWORK IN and OUT ports as shown in the diagram.

TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. System Examples voted and that transmitter 8 is active. Both of these states will be shown on the operator’s PC. To force the TSAM to steer to transmitter 1, the operator will generate a FORCE VOTE for receiver 1. The TIB will receive this FORCE VOTE for receiver 1 and setup the Tx Select lines for transmitter 1 and the Force Select line. When the TIB activates the Force Select line to the TSAM, the TSAM will immediately steer to transmitter 1.
TIB Hardware Reference CTI Products, Inc. • • • • • System Examples Because all of the receivers and transmitters are on the same communication channel, TSAM 1 and TSAM 2 are connected together through their P103 expansion ports. The system transmitters are connected to the TSAMs. Transmitters 1 through 8 are connected to TSAM 1 and transmitters 9 through 16 are connected to TSAM 2. TIB 2’s Force Select line is connected to TIB 1’s Force Select line, not to TSAM 2’s Force Select line.

For additional troubleshooting tips, refer to the troubleshooting section found in the Monitoring and Control Network System Manual, reference 1. Due to the high percentage of surface-mount components the TIB is treated as a field replaceable unit.
