Overview
Page/Talk Indoor Housings
Guardian's Page/Talk Systems provide reliable and easy to use paging and communication within
industrial environments such as plants, mills and factories. Individuals can be paged from any
station and two or more persons can communicate on any available line.
The Indoor Housings described in this manual are designed for use in harsh, industrial environments.
Housings intended for handset or amplifier stations are Identical and can be used for single talk line
or five talk line configurations. Housings have a knockout to facilitate installation of a connector in
the event that the station is used as a desk set amplifier.

Note: Total impedance on
the amplifier circuit
should not be less than
eight ohms for continuous
operation such as
background music and
not less than four ohms
for intermittent operation
such as paging. Suitable
resistors can be wired in
series or in parallel with
speakers to maintain an
acceptable impedance.

Installing the Indoor Housing
WARNING - high voltages are present in this equipment when it is
connected to the power source.
•Follow all appropriate electrical codes and use only approved electrical
fittings for the installation.
•Using a punch or screwdriver remove knockouts in appropriate locations. See: Figure 1 - Features
(With Optional Desk Set
Connector)
•
Install suitable fittings in the cable entrances.
•If the housing was supplied with the optional back plate kit or flush mount kit
refer to the kit manual for mounting instructions.
•Choose a wall location that is free of obstructions and permits space for
conduit or wire.
See: Figure 2 -
Dimensions
•Ensure mounting can support 11 lbs/5 kg (with module installed), and any
additional foreseeable load.
•If the housing is a replacement for one that was previously installed, the
hole spacing may be the same. If necessary drill out two of the optional
mounting holes in the housing with a 5/16" bit. Plug any unused holes in
the housing to prevent ingress of moisture and dust.
See: Figure 3 - Mounting
•If this is a new installation use the template provided or the housing itself to
locate and drill holes for mounting screws.
See: Insert - Template
•Secure the unit to the wall.
•
Ensure that none of the electrical connection circuits are live.
•Bring cable(s) into the enclosure through the conduit entrance(s) and attach
individual wires to the Combicon connector(s). Attach the wires from the
first or only cable to the bottom connector. Make Talk channel connections
to terminals 1A and 1B for a single line station.
See: Figure 7 - Wiring
and Figure 8 - Electrical
Connections
•If the station is part of a Group Muting series connect the wires assigned to
this function to either the Mute or Park terminal on the connector.
See: Group Muting
•Plug the connector(s) into the receptacle(s) on the interface board.
•Ensure all connections are secure.

Group Muting
In order to avoid acoustical feedback it may be desirable in certain
circumstances to mute speakers associated with adjoining stations when
making a paging call. This can be accomplished by interconnecting the “Group
Mute” terminals of each station in the group, and setting the speaker mute
jumpers on the circuit boards to the appropriate position.
See: Figure 8 - Electrical
Connections.
Note: Putting the mute jumper of a station in the on position will mute the
associated speaker when the page button is pressed. If the jumper is in
the off position the speaker will not be muted when the page button is
pressed.
If group muting is used the associated speaker of any station in the group with
its mute jumper in the on position will be muted when a paging call is made
from any station in the group, including the associated station. Any speaker
associated with a station with its mute jumper in the off position will not be
muted when a paging call is made from any station in the group, including the
associated station.
Note: Paging calls
originating from stations
outside the group will be
heard regardless of the
position of the Mute
jumper.
If it is desired to bypass a station in a group, connect the group paging wires to
the PARK terminals of that station.
EXAMPLE OF GROUP MUTING
If the Group Mute Signal Conductors are attached to the Park terminals of station “B” that station will be
bypassed and paging from stations “A” or “C” will have no effect on the output of the loudspeaker
associated with Station “B”.
If the Group Mute Signal Conductors are attached to the Mute terminals of station “B” the condition of
the loudspeaker associated with that station will depend on the setting of the Mute On/Off jumper. If
the jumper is in the ON position the loudspeaker will be muted if a paging call is made from any of the
three stations. If the jumper is in the OFF position the paging call will not be muted if a paging call is
made from any of the three stations.
Paging calls from outside the Group will always be heard, regardless of the position of the mute jumper.

Guardian Product Return
Guardian products have been quality tested and are in full working order when
shipped from the factory, given the rugged nature of these products shipping is not
expected to damage a unit. In the unlikely event of a malfunction Guardian follows the
three step procedure below.
Step I - On-Site Correction
•The most common source of difficulties with a new product is improper installation
in one of two ways: incorrect wiring connections or connection to an incorrect
power source.
•Product wiring needs to be properly connected to the on-site wiring. Correct wiring
instructions are shown in the user manual included with the product.
Step II - Return Materials Authorization (RMA)
•When a product has been installed following user manual instructions, and the unit
fails to operate, the user must contact Guardian Telecom to obtain authorization to
return the product. This can be done by completing a RMA form online at
www.guardiantelecom.com, or by calling the service telephone number given in
this manual.
•After providing information on the product, the owner and the nature of the
problem, Guardian will issue a RMA number, to be shown on documentation
returned with the product.
•In addition to the RMA number, shipping documents should include name, address
and telephone number of the owner along with contact information for the person
responsible for the repair and/or the user who identified the malfunction.
•(Where a product is being returned for repair from outside of Canada, customs
documentation must show the product’s serial number, date of export [date of
purchase], and a notation that the equipment is: “Canadian goods returning.”)
Step III - Factory Authorized Service
•Once received, each product is carefully inspected and tested. If the product is
under warranty, repairs are completed and the product returned to the owner,
generally within five working days of receipt by the factory.
•A product that has been subjected to misuse, neglect or accident or is beyond the
warranty period will be evaluated. The service department will provide the owner’s
representative with a repair cost estimate. Once approved, repairs are completed
and the product returned, generally within five working days.
