CAT5 Whole-House Intercom System
ST-2000 ST-2100 P-0930

The Channel Vision CAT5 Whole-House Intercom System consists of two basic components: P-0930 Intercom Hub and ST-2000 Intercom Station. The system can be expanded through the use of additional hubs and intercom stations. The ST-2000 Provides direct call buttons for 6 rooms. The ST-2100 Intercom Station Expander can be used to add more direct call buttons in larger systems. If a front door intercom station is required, Channel Vision’s popular IU-xxxxC or DP-xxxxC can be easily integrated as one of the intercom stations, and when used with the ST-C5IDS Door Strike Relay module, the system can activate an electronic door strike or gate opener.

Basic Application
In a basic 6-room system, any ST-2000 station is capable of calling another station directly, simply by pressing any of the 6 direct call buttons. The top direct call button corresponds to room 1, the second button corresponds to room 2 and so on.

The intercom stations can be activated from across the room by using the A0503 IR remote control, allowing you to make an intercom call while sitting in your favorite chair. The IR receiver that is integrated with the ST-2000 can also be used to send IR signals back to components in a different room, such as DVD players or media servers.

The Page Out feature on the P-0930 enables intercom pages to be broadcast to an external audio system. Many audio systems that provide a page input for this purpose also require a trigger voltage to activate the paging function. The P-0930 provides a 3.5 mm Page Trigger jack that supplies 12VDC for the duration of the intercom page.

Expanding the System
When expanding the system to more than 6 rooms, connect the Link Out from P-0930 to the Link In of another P-0930 using the small ribbon cable provided. As many as 4 P-0930 intercom hubs can be linked together to create a 24-room system. The dip switches located near the Link In connector allow each hub to be identified by a letter, such as A, B, C, or D. Each station, can accept up to 3 ST-2100 station expanders. The 6 room call buttons on the ST-2000 are always associated with hub A. The 6 room call buttons on the first ST-2100 are associated with hub B, the 6 room call buttons on the second ST-2100 are associated with hub C, and the 6 room call buttons on the third ST-2100 are associated with hub D.
