CHAPTER 1
Introduction
Description
The PS-2001L and SPS-2001 are versatile power supplies that can be used in a variety of Audiocom®intercom system
applications. They both directly accept any AC input power from 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz and can be configured to power
two separate intercom channels or one large intercom channel with twice the intercom station capacity. Additionally, the units
can be configured for compatibility with Clear-Com®Intercom Systems. The units may be rack mounted or used on a desktop.
For rack mounting, optional hardware is required. For desktop use, four non-marring rubber feet are supplied. The SPS-2001
also provides a speaker with two mixed inputs making it ideal for situations calling for a master station with a microphone/
speaker combination.

Introduction

1. Combine/Isolate Switch: When in the Combine position, the unit will combine the audio signals of the two channels to
create a single audio channel where all users can intercommunicate. When in the Isolate position, the unit will create two
groups of completely independent users.
2. Channel Status Indicators: The indicators are green for normal operation and red when there is an overload or short circuit.
The circuitry in the unit will automatically reset when the overload or short circuit is located and fixed.
3. Universal AC Power Input: The unit accepts any input power in the range of 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
4. Intercom Channel Connectors: When the Combine/Isolate switch is set to the Isolate position, each channel connector is
powered separately and has completely separate intercom audio. When the Combine/Isolate switch is set to the Combine
position, each channel is still powered separately, but the audio signals are combined so that all users on both channels can
intercommunicate.
5. BAL/UNBAL Selector Switch: This selector switch allows the user to configure the unit for use in either an Audicom®
(BALANCED) or Clear-Com (UNBALANCED) system. Compatibility includes channel connector pin-outs, channel
power requirements, and call signaling requirements. The default setting for this switch is in the Audiocom®(BAL)
position.
1. Speaker, Inputs, and Volume Control: Two audio inputs are provided. The inputs are combined internally and set as a
monaural signal to the internal speaker amplifier. The Volume control adjusts the level to the front panel speaker. Typically,
these inputs are used with the speaker outputs of a master station when the master station is set for use with a panel
microphone and speaker instead of a headset.
2. Combine/Isolate Switch: When in the Combine position, the unit will combine the audio signals of the two channels to
create a single audio channel where all users can intercommunicate. When in the Isolate position, the unit will create two
groups of completely independent users.
3. Channel Status Indicators: The indicators are green for normal operation and red when there is an overload or short circuit.
The circuitry in the unit will automatically reset when the overload or short circuit is located and fixed.
4. Universal AC Power Input: The unit accepts any input power in the range of 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.

5. Intercom Channel Connectors: When the Combine/Isolate switch is set to the Isolate position, each channel connector is
powered separately and has completely separate intercom audio. When the Combine/Isolate switch is set to the combine
position, each channel is still powered separately, but the audio signals are combined so that all users on both channels can
intercommunicate.
6. BAL/UNBAL Selector Switch: This selector switch allows the user to configure the unit for use in either an Audiocom®
(BALANCED) or Clear-Com (UNBALANCED) system. Compatibility includes channel connector pin-outs, channel
power requirements, and call signaling requirements. The default setting for this switch is in the Audiocom®(BAL)
position.

Installation
Configuration Switches
The BAL/UNBAL switch (located on the rear of the unit) is set to the Balanced (Audiocom) position when the unit is shipped
from the factory. To set the switch to the Unbalanced (Clear-Com) mode, use a pointed object such as a pen to push in the
switch.
The Combine/Isolate switch (located on the front of the unit) can be changed at any time by using a pointed object such as pen
to push in the switch. When the switch is in the Combine position, all users on both channels may intercommunicate. When the
switch is set to the Isolate position, channels 1 and 2 cannot intercommunicate.
Intercom Channel and Program Connections
Channel Capacity:
When connecting intercom stations to the PS-2001L or SPS-2001, determine the total current for all stations on each channel.
The total per channel should no exceed 2A. If you exceed this limit, an overload indication will be provided and the output of
the power supply will be turned OFF. Once the overload is corrected, the overload indications will disappear and the power
supply output will be turned ON. Note, if you are using DC wallpacks with some intercom stations, you do not need to add the
current consumption of those station to the total current.
Audiocom Connections:
Intercom cable wiring details are shown in figure X. Speaker and interconnection cables (SPS-2001 Only) are standard RCA
phono types. For program input cable wiring, refer to your master intercom station user manual. Some typical applications are
shown in the figures on page 9.
Clear-Com Applications:
Refer to your Clear-Com system documentation for intercom cable wiring and connection details.
Desktop or Rackmount Installation
For desktop use, install the four supplied rubber feet to the bottom of the unit. Do not obstruct the cooling vents when using the
unit on a desktop.

For rack mounting, use an optional Audiocom Rackmount Kit. Several kits are available to meet the requirements of your
particular system. Follow the assembly instructions supplied with the rack mount kit.

*Standard cables are generally constructed using a male connector at one end and a
female connector at the other end. This allows several cables to be interconnected to
create longer cable runs.
Audiocom power supplies use a 3-pin male Neutrik connector for
each channel. Audiocom wallplates use male Neutrik connectors.
Audiocom master stations, speaker stations and belt packs
also typically provide both a male and female Neutrik connector for each intercom
channel. This permits loop-through connection of several intercom stations using the
standard cables.
Use second drain wire if available, or add an extra section of wire.

Power-Up Check
Power-Up Check
1. Plug in any DC wallpacks that are being using with indi-
vidual intercom stations.
NOTE: If you plug in DC wallpacks after applying power to
the PS2001L or SPS-2001, you may get an overload
indication. This is because the stations that are being
powered by wallpacks will draw current from the units until
their own DC wallpack supplies are connected. To correct
the problem, plug in the DC wallpacks.
2. Plug in the AC power cords for any connected PS-2001L
or SPS-2001 Power Supplies. The channel status
indicators should be green.
3. If a channel status indicator turns red during operation,
locate the short or overload that is causing the problem.
Once the short or overload is corrected, the Power Supply
should reset itself and the overload indication should go
away.
