NOTES:
1. Pressing pound key twice
(##) equals one pound key (#) to be sent to the AmpliCenter when dialing from a multi-button set.
2. A 2 pair RJ-11 cord must be used to interface with the AmpliCenter.
3. Ground Start trunk (for telephone system) must share a common ground with AmpliCenter page input ground.
4. Volume of AmpliCenter cannot be set/adusted via this access; adjust at AmpliCenter with standard touch-tone phone.

The Dry Loop 600 Ohm is a four wire interface consisting of a dry audio
pair with a 600 ohm impedance and a control pair. The page input is
activated when the control pair receives a contact closure from the host
equipment, connecting C1 to ground. The Dry Loop page input can also
be activated by the presence of page input audio signals that exceed a
set threshold. This threshold is set by the page VOX adjustment;
clockwise rotation lowers the threshold and makes it more sensitive.
Adjust by experimentation to account for various line loss and noise.
This feature is beneficial for (amplified) microphone sources that don’t
have a Music/Page control contact, or for remote AmpliCenters.
Dry Loop Hi Impedance is used to interface with parallel multiple units.
Input impedance is 100K ohms. Otherwise, the same as the 600 ohm
dry loop operation.
NOTE: Ground start interface
The Ground Start mode is a two wire interface and has a 600 ohm input
requires common ground
impedance. When a trunk is accessed, a momentary ground is sent to
between paging input and
the ring-side of the pair by the host equipment, loop current is detected
telephone system by direct line
or other common grounding
and the tip-side of the pair is closed. Disconnect supervision of the
methods.
ground start mode is accomplished by monitoring the loop current.
The Loop Start mode is two wire interface and has a 600 ohm input
impedance. The host equipment draws loop current from the talk-battery
which is supplied by the AmpliCenter. Disconnect supervision of the loop
start mode is accomplished by monitoring the loop current.
