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.

How it works:
Every intercom zone (or room) will have at least one ST-2000 which will provide direct call access
to the first 6 rooms. For larger systems (up to 24 zones), model ST-2100 can be added to allow
direct call access to more zones. Note: larger systems will also require the addition of more P-0930
intercom hubs.
Functions:
Page/Lstn - Press “Page/Lstn” to call all other stations in the system. Note: Pressing “Ans/End”
will mute an incoming page.
DND - Press once to enter the ‘ring only’ mode (LED turns Orange). In this mode other stations can
ring you, but you must press “Ans/End” to accept the call. Press the button a second time and the
LED turns Red, now other stations will hear a busy tone when they call your station.
Ans/End - Press this button to: 1) Call back the station that just paged, 2) Answer a door station
call (press & hold for 3 seconds to activate the ST-C5IDS strike relay), 3) Answer a direct call when
in the ‘ring only’ mode, 4) Press this button again to end the call.
Mon/Talk - 1) Press and hold this button for 2 seconds (LED turns Red) to allow your station to be
monitored from other stations, 2) Press and release (LED turns Green) to listen to another station
that is in monitor mode. Note: Rooms being monitored will not hear any pages. Pressing “Ans/End”
will release a station from monitor mode.
Push-To-Talk Mode: Room to Room (for noisy environments) - This system normally operates in
a ‘hands-free’ mode so the person responding to a direct intercom call can simply speak and the
ST-2000 automatically detects when the person has finished speaking. However, if there is
significant background noise, the ST-2000 will not distinguish between voice and background noise.
In this case, press and hold the “Mon/Talk” button (LED turns Orange) this will override the
automatic voice switching and allow the person holding the “Mon/Talk” button to be heard in the
other room. After the call, the system will revert back to ‘hands-free’ mode. Note: the push-to-talk
mode only occurs when a call has been initiated between two locations. If a call is not already in
progress, pressing and holding the “Mon/Talk” button will engage the monitor mode as described
above.
Push-To-Talk Mode: Room to Door - Hold down the “Mon/Talk” button while speaking to a door.
The LED turns Orange.
Push-To-Talk Mode: Door to Room - Hold down the “Page/Lstn” button to hear the person at the
door station speaking to you. The LED turns Green.

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 (see page 3). 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.
The default dip switch position sets the P-0930 as
unit A. this means that both dip switches are in the
“down” or “off” position. When creating larger
systems, make sure the dip switches are
configured properly.
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 3.5mm Page
Trigger jack that supplies 12VDC for the duration of the intercom
page.

The room labels on the intercom stations can be customized to help
the user remember which buttons correspond to which room. For
example, instead of having labels that say: Room 1, Room 2, Room
3, etc. you can label those rooms as: Kitchen, Bedroom, Bathroom,
etc. To create paper labels of the appropriate size, you can
download a label template from www.channelvision.com that will
allow you to create custom labels and print them on standard 8.5” x
11” paper. Then use scissors to cut along the template guidelines.

One major benefit of the CAT5 Whole-House Intercom System is that

integrates Page Out feature of the P-0930 with the local audio input on
the P-1014 1x4 CAT5 Audio Distribution Module. When a page is sent
from the P-0930 it will interrupt the main audio source feeding the P-1014
so the page will be heard through the audio system’s speakers. This is a
great way to make pages audible in areas where there is no ST-2000
intercom station.

1) Be sure you have connected the CAT5 cable correctly. Follow the
color code indicated on the 110 connectors and use the TIA-568A
color standard on any RJ-45 connectors in the system. Mis-wiring will
prevent the system from working!
2) Having trouble calling from room to room?
A. Look at the status LEDs on the ST-2000. Do they function as
indicated in the chart below?
B. Look at the IR LED on the P-0930 while pressing one of the call
buttons on the ST-2000. It should flash when buttons are pressed.
Now go to the room you are trying to call and repeat the test on
that ST-2000. If the LED flashes both times, then IR control
signals are being transferred from the intercom stations to the hub.
3) Trouble with IR control?
a. If you’re having trouble controlling the system with the A0503 remote,
make sure you have fresh batteries installed. Make sure you can
control the system by pressing the buttons on the ST-2000. See
troubleshooting step 2b.
b. If you’re having trouble operating an IR controlled device when using
the intercom’s IR repeating system, check the IR LED on the P-0930
to make sure it flashes when the IR signals are detected by the ST-
2000. Double check the IR emitter to ensure that it is located directly
over the IR sensor of the device. Does the IR repeating system
control some devices but not others? Check the IR specifications in
the manual to make sure your device is compatible with this IR
repeating system.
4) If the system is not responding, press and hold the DND button for 5
seconds. This will cause it to reboot.
5) If you need additional help troubleshooting this intercom system
