I. A. INTRODUCTION GENERAL INFORMATION The purpose of this manual is to completely explain the function, installation, and operation of the MCS Model 100. Communication System. This automatic dialing, synthesized speech, telephone based monitoring system represents a new generation of computer controlled telemetry devices, packed with features and capabilities not to be found in any other telephone oriented monitoring system.
B. UNPACKING AND INCOMING INSPECTION Microtel takes all possible precautions in packaging each item to prevent shipping damage. Carefully inspect each package at the time of receipt for signs of physical damage. Report damage claims to the shipping agent involved immediately. Do not install damaged equipment. All instructions given on any attached labels or tags should be followed.
C. PHYSICAL SYSTEM INSTALLATION Mount the system on a wall or other vertical surface, away from and protected from harsh weather extremes. It is also recommended that the unit not be placed in close proximity to high voltage (480 V and higher) electrical equipment. Four mounting holes on the left and right side enclosure flanges are to be used for system mounting.
D. BATTERY INSTALLATION The battery installs at the top of the system, in the battery tray provided as part of the interior chassis assembly. It is necessary to remove power from the system if it is currently applied. REMOVE 120 VAC POWER FROM THE SYSTEM IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DONE SO Open the system front panel and retrieve the red and black battery leads from within the battery tray.
E. ELECTRICAL POWER INSTALLATION Electrical power may be applied by simply plugging the system into a grounded, three wire outlet. BE CERTAIN THAT THE OUTLET HAS AN ADEQUATE EARTH GROUND. INSUFFICIENT EARTH GROUND CONNECTIONS CAN HARM THE UNIT AND PREVENT INTERNAL PROTECTION CIRCUITRY FROM PERFORMING PROPERLY. It is recommended that a separate circuit breaker be used with the system.
F. TELEPHONE LINE INSTALLATION The connection to the telephone network is a matter of simply plugging the modular Jack cable into the telephone line termination provided by the telephone utility (RJ11C or equivalent). This section contains important information regarding the installation of the telephone line to be used by the system, and pertinent information for notifying the telephone company of what type of line is to be installed.
G. FAULT MONITORING INTERFACE CONNECTIONS The MCS system is designed to accept up to eight channels of dry (unpowered), normally open or normally closed signal lines. The system provides a small sampling current to determine if the contact is open or closed. Leads from normally open or normally closed switches may be routed through the conduit port at the lower right side of the system. Connect each wire pair to its appropriate channel input terminal pair on the Fault Interface Assembly card.
H. POWERING UP THE SYSTEM NOTE: IF THE UNIT ABOUT TO BE POWERED UP FOR THE FIRST TIME CONTAINS HARDWARE FOR OPTIONAL FEATURES, READ THE SUPPLEMENTARY INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR THOSE FEATURES BEFORE POWERING THE UNIT UP FOR THE FIRST TIME. After the system has been mounted in a suitable area, the battery installed and power, telephone and fault sensing lines connected, it may be powered up by switching the "STANDBY - OPERATE" switch in the OPERATE position.
II. PROGRAMMING THE DIALER SYSTEM For this section, be advised that the keystroke entries are CAPITALIZED and the system's response whether visual or audible, is enclosed with in [brackets]. The system must be in the Halt mode to accept programming Information. If it is not in the Halt mode, depress the HALT key to force that condition. ["system ready"] A. STATION IDENTIFICATION There are two ways to enter a station identification message into the system.
1. ENTER, MESSAGE, 1 ["message 1, ready"] 2. Enter the desired three digit word addresses from core or application vocabulary lists found in the appendix (each word selected will be spoken by the unit following its three digit entry). 3. Terminate entry sequence with a second depression of ENTER To read this data, READ, MESSAGE, 1 ["message 1 is... (word1), (word2),(word3)...(word s"] Status only Channel Programming Any fault channel may be programmed as a "status only" channel (i.e.
The ring count is the number of rings the unit will wait before answering a call placed to it. This may be set to either 2 rings or to 8 rings. Perform this selection by setting position 1 on the option switch to the OPEN (or "off") position for 2 rings and the CLOSED (or "on") position for 8 ring selection. 2. Tone or Pulse Dial selection The system needs to be set for pulse or tone type dialing.
enter a successful access code at the proper time. The following example illustrates how the access code may be programmed. 1. ENTER,* ["access code, ready"] 2.
III. A. OPERATIONS SYSTEM FAMILIARIZATION AND KEY FUNCTION SUMMARY The power switch for the system is located on the main controller Board, within the system. It is important to note that when 120 vac power is connected to the system, this switch does not remove 120 vac power from the main Controller Board--it is always present unless the circuit breaker, which the INSTALLER must supply, is turned off! There are eight indicators in the middle of the system front panel.
SEQUENCE The SEQUENCE key is a preface key, which allows some of the advanced operation features of the system to be activated. Until the purpose and use of this key is explained later in this manual, it is advisable to leave it alone. If this key is randomly operated with others, a proper keystroke combination could occur, wiping out portions of telephone number and other data. ENTER The ENTER key is used to enter data which the system must use in performing its monitoring and alarming functions.
B. PUTTING THE SYSTEM IN RUN After all operational data has been entered into the system, the unit is ready to enter the run mode, from which any fault channels will be acted upon--causing calls to be placed to the programmed telephone numbers. To place the system is the Run Mode; depress the RUN key on the system front panel. The Run indicator will verify successful entry into the Run Mode. Delayed Entry into the Run Mode The Run Mode may be entered after a programmable delay. To do so, 1.
acknowledgement has been accepted by saying, ["acknowledgement accepted, the Intercall delay is xx hours"]. D. TEST AND ADVANCED KEYSTROKE SEQUENCES Access to the remote control functions of the unit can be obtained at any time communications are established with the unit, whether the unit or the user placed the call. After the call placed by the unit has been acknowledged by either method described above, the system will accept the access code required for entry into the remote control functions.

IV MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING In the unlikely event that trouble is suspected with the system, it must be promptly disconnected from the telephone network, and referred to Microtel or its authorized service representatives. A service manual detailing troubleshooting procedures is available to qualified personnel. Periodically inspect the system internally for any evidence of moisture, blown fuses, or battery failure as instructed herein. A. MAINTENANCE 1.
