Zone Code Zones
00 All Call
01 - 68 Individual Zones
71 - 87 Fixed Zone Groups
91 - 99 Logical Zone Groups
Note: Zone Code is the splitter zone DTMF tone.
All splitters must use the same CLASS of wiring (CLASS “A” or “B”) for the audio output zones. See the
SP4-APS Installation Instructions (P84577) for proper wiring of these zones.
Individual Zone and Fixed Zone Group sequence numbers are controlled by the placement of the splitters
in the RS485 digital communication circuit. The first splitter connected to the RS485 digital control port on
the SP4-TZC will be assigned the first zone codes (Individual Zone codes of “01” and “02” for CLASS
“A”, Individual Zone codes of “01” through “04” for CLASS “B”, and a Fixed Zone Group code of “71”).
Using the previous example where the first splitter covers the warehouse area, let’s add a second splitter
covering the front office area. If the paging zones are set for CLASS “A” then the warehouse will have
Individual Zone codes of “01” and “02”. The front office area Individual Zone codes will be “03” and “04”.
The Fixed Zone Group code for the warehouse will be “71”, and the front office Fixed Zone Group code
will be “72”

Figure 1
RS485 Communications Path from SP4-TZC to Last CLASS “A” Splitter
Figure 1 shows the path of the RS485 digital control loop and the sequence of the splitters in that loop. The
SP40/2 splitter is always
the first splitter connected to the RS485 loop. Notice on Figure 1 that the
individual and Fixed Zone Group codes are listed for a CLASS “A” splitter configuration. The SPB-160 is
used as an example of an audio booster.
