1 INTRODUCTION This manual describes the operating procedures for the KP96/KP97 keypanels when used in an ADAM, ADAM CS, or Zeus Intercom System. The operating procedures are divided into two parts: “Basic Keypanel Operation” (page 7) which describes how to talk and listen over the intercom system, and “Advanced Operations” (page 9) which describes how to program key assignments, change setup pages, and display information about the keypanel setup.
2 DESCRIPTION OF USER CONTROLS AND FEATURES (See Figure 1 for numbered callouts) 1. Designation Strip Holder: A strip can be inserted here to identify the talk key assignments if required. 2. Display Window: The display window contains a separate indicator for each talk key. The indicators can be either 4-character, alpha-numeric displays or LED’s, depending on the keypanel model. The alpha-numeric displays show the names for the destinations (intercom ports, party lines etc.
2.1 BASIC KEYPANEL OPERATION 2.1.1 POWER SWITCH A power switch is located on the back of each keypanel, expansion panel, and level control panel next to the power cord. 2.1.2 POWER-UP INDICATIONS Keypanels with Alpha-Numeric Displays: When power is turned on, the talk key displays will first display asterisks (****) then dashes (----). After a few moments, the talk key assignments will display. If no talk key assignments have been programmed, the displays will continue to show dashes.
2. In some cases you may not be able to hear the person, party line etc. to whom you are talking. In such cases, tap the listen key above the talk key. The listen key LED illuminates when the key is on. (See notes, below.) 3. When you are finished with your conversation, turn off the talk (and listen) keys. Notes: • When talking to another keypanel, you normally do not have to activate a listen key because the other keypanel activates the listen path when it talks back.
3 ADVANCED OPERATIONS 3.1 GENERAL The intercom system’s configuration computer and software are the primary tools for creating and saving intercom system configurations. If your keypanel is equipped with a programming keypad, you can also change settings for your keypanel from the keypad, provided restrictions have not been imposed using the intercom system configuration software. If you try to program a restricted key or function, the programming will be ignored.
3.3.1.1 Keypanel Identification MULT E-PNL NUM FUNC DISPLAY SLIST 0 8 1 FUNC__DISPLAY__1 This sequence displays the panel number of the keypanel in the incoming messages window for about 2 seconds. ☞ A false reading can be given if the keypanel’s dip switches are incorrectly set. 3.3.1.2 Level 2 Talk Key Assignments For Stacked Talk Keys A stacked talk key activates two types of communication at once.
additional expansion panels are connected, the setup pages for these will also be displayed using the same format. 3.3.1.5 Test Mode MULT E-PNL MULT FUNC DISPLAY FUNC 0 8 FUNC__DISPLAY__0 0 When you enter this sequence, all alpha-numeric displays show a % symbol. When a talk key is pressed up or down, the display changes to “OK” verifying proper key operation. If the keypanel uses LEDs for the talk key displays, the LEDs will all turn on.

2. Select setup page 1-4 (4 in this example). PHONE 4 RELAY 3. Tap the PGM key. PGM 4. On the desired keypanel or expansion panel, press any talk or listen key. If the panel has alpha-numeric displays, the new key assignments should appear in a few moments. Notes • The same setup page cannot be assigned to more than one panel. If a setup page is already assigned to a panel, you must change that panel’s assignment before you can use the same setup page for another panel.
3.5 PROGRAMMING TALK AND LISTEN KEYS 3.5.1 GENERAL There are three methods to program talk and listen keys. These methods are summarized below and explained on the following pages. Key Assignment using Keypad Numeric Entry: Using this method, you enter the panel number, party line number etc. that you wish to assign to a key. This method requires that you know the number (not the name) of the port, party line etc. that you wish to assign.
2. If the keypanel, belt pack etc. that you want to assign to a key is located in a remote intercom system, enter the intercom system number (7 for example). Otherwise, skip to step 3. COPYCW 7 ☞ Intercom system numbers are the numbers that appear in the “Icm” column in CStrunk when you select “Names” or “Setup” from the Intercoms menu. EX COPY 3. Enter the panel number of the keypanel, belt pack etc.
3.5.2.2 Assigning a Party Line to a Key A party line is a group of intercom stations that can always talk and/or listen to each other. Party lines are set up using the intercom system configuration software. Once a party line has been set up, it can be assigned to a key as follows: 1. Tap the PL key. PL 2 IFB 2. If the party line is located in a remote intercom system, enter the intercom system number (7 in the example). Otherwise, skip to step 3.
Notes • If a key will not accept an assignment, the party line that you are trying to assign may have been restricted (not enabled) by the intercom system configuration software. The intercom system configuration software can also be used to restrict individual keypanel keys to prevent key assignments. • If desired, you can program the listen key with the auto-listen special function so that it is automatically activated when the talk key is pressed.
NUM tap 1 for Auto Listen, or... 1 SLIST PL tap 2 for Auto Follow, or... 2 IFB AUTO tap 3 for Auto Mute, or... 3 ISO PHONE tap 4 for Auto Reciprocal, or... 4 RELAY PREFIX tap 5 for All Call. 5 TYPE 3. After selecting a special function, tap the PGM key. PGM 4. Press a listen key (for all features except All Call) or a talk key (All Call only). If a talk key is pressed for All Call, “AC” will appear in the alpha-numeric display above the key (on keypanels so equipped).
☞ If a key will not accept an assignment, the special function that you are trying to assign may have been restricted (not enabled) by the intercom system configuration software. The intercom system configuration software can also be used to restrict individual keypanel keys to prevent key assignment. ☞ Special functions are always assigned in the local intercom system only. However, this does not mean that they cannot be used with remote key assignments.
4. Enter the special list number (4 in this example). MULT PHONE FUNC RELAY 0 ☞ If the special list is in a remote intercom system, you must always 4 enter 2 digits by adding a leading zero if required. If the special list is in the local intercom system, you do not have to enter a leading zero. 5. Tap the PGM key. PGM 6. Press a talk (or listen) key. If a talk key is pressed, the name of the special list will appear in the alpha-numeric display above that talk key (on keypanels so equipped).

3.5.2.6 Assigning an ISO to a Key ISO is a special type of communication used with party lines that have been setup using the intercom system’s party line feature. ISO is used when a keypanel operator wants to isolate a member of a party line to give instructions without interference from other communications on the party line. Additionally, ISO’s can be setup so that the person at the keypanel is also cutoff from all other intercom communications during ISO activation.
5. Tap the PGM key. PGM 6. Press a talk key. The name of the ISO will appear in the alpha-numeric display above that talk key (on keypanels so equipped). ☞ If a key will not accept an assignment, the ISO that you are trying to assign may have been restricted (not enabled) by the intercom system configuration software. The intercom system configuration software can also be used to restrict individual keypanel keys to prevent key assignments. 3.5.2.
