MOISTURE
PROHIBITIONS
1. TC-M equipment is designed for indoor use only.
Do not install outdoors.
2. TC-M system is not operational during a power failure.
3. In areas where broadcasting station antennas are close by,
intercom system may be affected by radio frequency interference.
4. Keep all DC wiring at least 30cm, 1' away from AC 100~240V
wiring, fluorescent lighting, or dimmer switches.
Otherwise, cross AC wiring at a 90°angle.
Weather conditions, such as lightning storms, may cause damage
to TC-M equipment. It is suggested to take protective measures
as follows;
• When an AC transformer is used
• When a DC power supply is used:
On the power supply with grounding terminal, be sure to take the
terminal to earth ground.
In this case, it is not necessary to connect a surge-arrester.
When using a power supply that has no grounding terminal,
install a surge-arrester in the same manner as stated above.
Surge-arrester SA-1 is available from Aiphone.
1. Do not connect any power source other than specified on
TC-M master. Fire or damage to the unit could result.
2. Do not open TC-M master. High voltage is present inside,
and it can cause electric shock.
3. Do not change or alter TC-M master. It can cause fire
or electric shock.
4. Make sure wires are connected properly before plugging in
power supply.
5. Keep TC-M master away from water or any other liquid.
Fire or electric shock could result.
6. Keep AC plug away from moisture or dust.
7. Keep AC cord away from being marred or crushed.
8. Do not plug or unplug with wet hands.
9. Do not put any metal into TC-M through openings.
It can cause fire, electric shock or unit damage.
- Places subject to moisture or humidity extremes.
- Places subject to environmental conditions,
such as oil, dust, chemicals, salt, etc.
- Places subject to constant vibration or impact.
- Places where noise generating devices such as
TV or radio are close by.
WARNING Negligence could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION Negligence could result in injury or damage to property.
WARNING
CAUTION
1. Do not make call tone testing with hook switch manually held down.
The call tone sounds very loud near your ears, and can cause
your hearing damage.
2. Do not install or make any wire terminations while power supply
is plugged in. It can cause electrical shock or damage to the unit.
3. Install TC-M master in a convenient location, but not
where it could be bumped or jarred.
4. In case of electrical storms, unplug power supply from AC outlet.
It can cause fire, electric shock, or power surge damage.
5. Do not install TC-M components in any of the following locations,
as it may cause the system to malfunction;
- High or extreme cold temperature area:
under direct sunlight, near equipment that varies in temperature,
in front of air conditioner, inside a refrigerated area, etc.

• The # terminals on the master station connect to
terminal 1 on each TB-SE sub. These numbers
become the sub's station number, numbered from
the top on each 10-button row.
★2 parallel wires per TB-SE sub, nonpolarized.
Be sure to run each pair of wires directly to
TC-M master.
E line in each pair should not be connected at
any other point of cable than E terminals on
TC-M, which can accomodate 2 ~ 3 TB-SE subs.
The master can select the door station for audio monitoring at any time. The call
announce pretone is selectable.
Set the switch to ON position for pretone, removing the cover of front case.

Remove 2 screws on front panel, removing the cover on upper end and area/section plate. Lift off front
case holding sides at top. Disconnect the intercom by unplugging the connector.
Open a cable inlet hole (rubber part) on bottom of chassis. Pull in cable(s), and make wire terminations.
Use attached cable clamps(s) for neat and secured connection. Reconnect and mount front case to
chassis, attaching the cover and plate in place.
When wall-mounting, separate the front panel from chassis, as explained above. Install the chassis

Connecting a buzzer at a TB-SE sub
When called by TC-M master, buzzer is
activated and on TB-SE sub, call tone sounds
at reduced volume.
TAR-3 relay activates an AC-operated buzzer:
AC 240V, 0.3A. DC-operated buzzer must be
mechanical type: DC 24V, 1.0A.
Do not use DC electronic buzzer.

6OPERATIONS
Calling and receiving To call a TB-SE sub, the other master or audio door station pick up
handset and depress a station-select button. When called by
tremolo tone, pick up and depress the LED-lit select button. LED
remains on while in communication. Communicating TC-M is
notified of a call with a lit LED only. The audible call tone will
resume when the handset is hung up.
Receiving a call from audio IE/IF door station
When the door station places a call with call button, a tremolo tone
is activated on the TC-M, which stays on approx. 40 seconds. The
master replies by selecting the station button that is lit. At the door
station, when selected, a pretone is heard, unless it is muted at the
TB-AD1, 10 adaptor.
“Transfer” allows two TB-SE subs to communicate with each other
When a master receives a call from sub A, requesting transfer of
call, TC-M leaves sub A waiting, pressing a sub B select button.
When sub B picks up the call (sub A hears a busy tone), TC-M
depresses Transfer switch.
TC-M then reselects waiting sub A with red LED on. Three parties
are on the line, and TC-M may hang up.
Door-to-master or master-to-master calls are not transferrable.

If transfer LED is lit when a transfer is not being made, it can be
cleared by pressing “transfer” switch.

Single TC-M system

7TECHNICAL PRECAUTIONS
The power switch is located on back panel of TC-M console, which should be placed ON, except for
special occasions. If the system malfunctions, turn off and on TC-M master, by which the system
may reset itself. Possible causes are; power supply is unplugged, connecting wires are loosened or
shorted. Do not attempt to open TC-M equipment nor change wiring. Ask qualified personnel.
At end of each communication, be sure to place handset in cradle properly. If not, TC-M master or
TB-SE sub will not hear the call tone.
The TC-M is rated to operate at temperatures between 0°C ~ +40°C (32°F ~ 104°F).
Clean the TC-M equipment with a soft cloth dampened with neutral household cleanser. Never use
any abrasive cleaner or cloth.
TC-M places a buzzer-activating call to a TB-SE sub
Buzzer sounds continuously at TB-SE sub, in
addition to ordinary tremolo. Pick up on the
TB-SE station, that the buzzer is connected to.
Adjusting receive and call tone volume
Upper control adjusts handset receiver volume,
when TC-M does not hear a TB-SE sub clearly.
Tone control adjusts ringing tremolo, 3 levels.
TC-M dual-master system
Two masters call and communicate with each assigned select
button. Transfer of a sub’s call to another on the other master is not
possible.
A call from TB-SE subs that are connected to two masters activates
tremolo tone at both masters. When the controlling TC-M is busy,
the other TC-M may pick up. In this case, the sub hears both
tremolo and busy tones.
Dual-master has an operation that, when TC-M1 places a call to
either TC-M2 or a common TB-SE that is already in
communication, the talk line is connected among 3 parties.
It reduces communication volume. One party should hang up to
restore normal volume.

Call tone
3-levels each
TB-SE sub operation
To call TC-M master, simply pick up and it rings TC-M with tremolo
tone, which continues ringing until the call is answered. Intermittent
tone means the master is occupied. Hang up or continue to hold.
When called by tremolo tone, simply pick up.
