Take a little time to get familiar with them so you can start enjoying your system right away. Things you’ll need to know With ComPoint, we refer to areas with keypads as zones. A zone may be a single room or an area with more than one room, such as a kitchen and dining area. Every communication has a sender and a receiver.
USER SECTION Operation Paging (cont’d) If a zone key is lit red on the Basic Keypad, press the key to deselect that zone before you press the Talk key to send a page. On the Basic Keypad, press and release a zone key to select the target zone (figure 6). The key lights up red to indicate the zone is selected. If a zone label appears in the display on the Advanced Keypad, use the Next or Previous key to select Page before you press the Talk key.
USER SECTION Operation Door station call A visitor can ring the doorbell and initiate a door station call by simply pressing and releasing the Call key (figure 8). When the Call key is pressed, all keypads indicate the calling door station for 15 seconds. The D1 or D2 key on the Basic Keypad blinks red and the display on the Advanced Keypad shows Door1, Door2, or an installerassigned door label (figure 9). Fig. 7.
USER SECTION Operation station pings twice to indicate the time is up. If more than 15 seconds have passed since the door call, you can reselect the door station and press the Talk key to start a new session. This does not ring the doorbell.

USER SECTION Operation Door strike release (cont’d) Listen mode The module then activates for 3 seconds and the keypad and door station confirm activation with a buzz tone. You can use your ComPoint system to continuously listen to any single zone from one or more other zones. To do this, first turn on a keypad microphone in the zone you want to listen to, then select that zone on one or more other keypads.

The volume keys are reserved for adjusting the keypad volume. Fig. 13.
USER SECTION Operation Combined Listen and DND modes You can use DND mode on a keypad you are listening to in Listen mode. This way the zone you’re listening to won’t be disturbed by the doorbell or other communication events. To set up a zone for Listen mode and DND, first activate the keypad’s microphone by selecting that zone on the keypad. Then turn on DND key. Fig. 16.
INSTALLER SECTION Product Summary About this section This section of the manual provides technical information for installing and programming the ComPoint system. It also provides detailed functional descriptions of the system components. Product summary The ComPoint system uses one or more central hubs, each of which supports up to 6 keypads. Each keypad is addressable by its own unique ID number assigned by the hub.
INSTALLER SECTION Product Summary ISH1 Hub As the central controller for the ComPoint system, the ISH1 Hub performs all communications routing. It addresses each keypad by sending a message on the status wire in the CAT-5 cable to give the keypad its own ID number according to the port it’s connected to. The hub has 6 zone keypad ports. Up to 6 ISH1 Hubs can be linked together for a maximum of 36 zones. With multiple hubs, each hub must be assigned a unique ID number during installation.
INSTALLER SECTION Product Summary/Installation ISK2 Advanced Keypad (cont’d) One of the benefits of the Advanced Keypad is unrestricted intercom on large systems (7 to 36 zones), since the ISK2 is able to select any of the zones by label. The zone and door station labels are dynamically served from the hub and listed in alphabetical order to appear on the keypad display. A Page label is included in the list as the default selection when the system is inactive and the Talk key is pressed.
INSTALLER SECTION Installation Keypad backlight color selection Each ComPoint keypad can be set to either amber or green backlighting, selected by a miniature slide switch on the bottom edge of one of the circuit boards (figure 18).

INSTALLER SECTION Programming System programming Hub ID Switch Settings (0 = Down, 1 = Up) All system programming resides in the ISH1 Hub. For a six-zone system with ISK1 Basic Keypads, programming consists only of setting the doorbell chimes. For a system with ISK2 Advanced Keypads, programming includes assigning zone and door station labels. For a system with more than six zones, programming includes setting hub ID numbers.
INSTALLER SECTION Programming Doorbell chimes (cont’d) Switch 4 selects how the chime volume level is managed. Setting the switch to 1 (up) sets the chime volume level to a fixed level at 50% of the maximum keypad output in all zones. This causes the chime to play at the same level in all zones. Setting the switch to 0 (down) allows the chime volume to be determined by the keypad volume level setting in each zone independently. Switch 8 is currently not used.

Assignable door labels for ISK2 To assign labels you must have all hubs linked together with unique ID numbers (if the system has multiple hubs) and an ISK2 Advanced Keypad connected to any hub. You can use the same keypad to assign labels for the entire system. Also, the system must be powered up.

INSTALLER SECTION System Functions Detailed function descriptions Paging ComPoint routes communications by switching its audio bus to the keypads and door stations. All switching takes place in the hub(s). The hub switches the bus to either the microphone or the amplifier in a keypad or door station, depending on the direction of the communication. Paging is the default system function.
INSTALLER SECTION System Functions Intercom (cont’d) The intercom function requires first selecting a target zone. This is done by pressing a zone key on the ISK1 Basic Keypad or scrolling to a zone label on the ISK2 Advanced Keypad. After selecting a zone, the user may press the Talk key to begin communication. If an invalid zone (one that has no keypad) is selected on an ISK1 Basic Keypad, the zone key blinks rapidly for 7 seconds. Pressing another zone key selects another zone.
INSTALLER SECTION System Functions Door station call (cont’d) Door strike release Pressing the Call key also causes the doorbell contacts to close for a minimum of 4 seconds to activate a separate doorbell or other device connected to the door station. The actual time varies with the doorbell selection on hub 1; the contacts remain closed for the duration of the selected chime. The optional ISDR1 Door Strike Release module can be activated from any keypad at any time.
INSTALLER SECTION System Functions Listen mode (cont’d) Do Not Disturb (DND) mode Selecting the sending zone on other keypads connects their amplifiers to the audio bus so they can listen to the sending zone. Placing a zone in Do Not Disturb (DND) mode prevents the audio bus from being switched to the keypad amplifier in that zone. Thus, that zone will not receive any pages, intercom calls, door station calls, or doorbell chimes (unless a separate doorbell is used).
INSTALLER SECTION System test System function test Reply to door station call Paging ❏ Verify reply is heard at door station Initiate a page from any keypad ❏ Verify single ping at door station when Talk key is released ❏ Verify all keypads indicate the sending zone Answer reply from door station ❏ Verify the page is heard in all zones ❏ Verify double ping in receiving zones when Talk key is released ❏ Verify answer is heard in replying zone ❏ Verify 30-second timeout for sending zone indication
