1. Safety and Care Information
▲
The safety of the user/installer relies on the isolation of the telephone
network and not on the earthing of the case
▲
The spring
-
loaded door (Titan models only, where fitted) can close
sharply. Take care not to trap fingers etc., during installation and use.
▲
Please read these instructions thoroughly before starting installation.
These products must be installed by competent personnel familiar with
telephone installation.
▲
Telephone network voltages can be hazardous. Take adequate
precautions when opening the case or installing. If in doubt, disconnect
the telephone line elsewhere before accessing the line connections.
▲
For increased protection against lightning transients, attach a local
earth to the main terminal block (see section 6)
2. Product Description
This manual describes the standard keypad versions of the Titan and
Commander telephone ranges. Models are available with full numeric
keypads for manual dialling, or with auto-dial buttons for dialling pre-stored
numbers from a single button press, or a combination of both. Common
keypad layouts are shown below.
Although functionally and electrically identical, (i.e. the operation,
programming and connection details are common), Titan and Commander
differ physically, so the installation and mounting details are described
separately.

6 Titan, Commander, standard keypad
Titan doors may be fitted with slamlocks opened by an 8mm square socket
key. Other lock mechanisms may also be fitted.
2.3. Commander features
Commander is a family of rugged, weather-resistant telephones manufactured
from moulded glass-reinforced polyester. A range of handset types and
keypad configurations are available.
3. Operation / Testing
Please note that, following its initial connection to the line (ie first installation),
there may be a delay of up to 30s before the telephone can make an outgoing
call.
3.1. Making and Receiving calls
To make a call, lift the handset, wait for dial tone, dial required digits (or press
required memory button or Last Number Redial where provided) and wait for
connection.
To end a call, replace the handset in its cradle.
To receive a call, lift the handset when ringing is heard.
3.2. Last Number Redial
(15 and 18 button versions only)
Lift the handset, press LR to redial the last dialled number.

Titan, Commander, standard keypad 7
3.3. S Button Function
(15 and 18 button versions only)
The function of the S button is set by a jumper on the circuit board (see
section 7.3.3) to be either:
•Secrecy (Mute) - During a call, press and hold the S button to mute the
microphone , or
•Store (used during the programming of auto dial memories (see section
7.1)
3.4. Recall Function
(15 and 18 button versions only)
When a call is in progress, press R to send a “recall” signal to the exchange.
Only time-break recall signals can be generated, but the length of the break
can be selected (see section 7.3.7)
3.5. Call timer
The phone has a selectable call timer that can limit the maximum call duration
to approximately 7 minutes.
When ON, the timer forces the phone back off line after the preset time. This
prevents the line remaining tied if the handset is left off-hook. The timer is
factory-set to OFF by default.
3.6. Hot Dial Option
(0 button versions only)
As a factory-configured option, the phone can be supplied with no dialling
buttons but set to automatically dial a user-programmed number when the
handset is lifted.
When this option is enabled, the phone will pause for approximately 3
seconds after the handset is lifted (to allow time for dial tone to be supplied)
and then dial the number programmed in memory 1. See section 7.2 for
programming instructions.

5. Mounting methods and dimensions
5.1. General
IMPORTANT
Installation details differ between the TITAN and COMMANDER product
ranges –please make sure you know which product you are installing
and refer to the appropriate sections below.
Before mounting the telephone, check the cable routing and requirements. If
glands are required, fit them to the case as follows:
1. Remove the RED blanking plug leaving the other (usually BLACK) in
place.
Only fit a second gland if a separate cable is required to the phone (for
example for an additional hook-switch contact).
2. Note that 2 plastic glands are supplied, but it is the installer’s responsibility
to select the correct type of gland for the application and cables used. The
gland entries (and the supplied glands) are M20.
3. Select the appropriate sized gland:
Use the smaller gland for cables
diameters 4 - 7mm.
Use the larger gland for cable
diameters 8 - 13mm.
4. From the outside of the case, insert
the selected gland into the threaded
cable entry hole and tighten, so that
its sealing washer is compressed
against the enclosure surface.
5. Proceed with chosen mounting method below
5.2. Titan
As standard, Titan with rear enclosure is supplied with 2 cable glands with
sealing washers, 4 countersunk screws with wall plugs and a 3mm Allen key.
Titan telephones supplied for flush mounting have no rear enclosure – see
section 5.2.3 below.

5.2.1 Wall mounting
1. Using a suitable tool, punch out 4 holes in the rear enclosure, taking
care not to damage or dislodge the plastic bushes. Only four of the
eight holes are required - the outer ones are recommended. The
inner holes are provided to be compatible with older-style mounting
posts, and should be left intact if not used. If the inner holes are
used they must be fitted with the supplied plastic bushes.
WARNING:.Your warranty will be invalidated if :-
1. Any fixing hole made in the rear enclosure is left unused.
2. Any additional holes are drilled into the telephone enclosure.
3. Plastic bushes are not used on all fixing holes.
2. Mark the wall with hole centres based on the dimensions shown
(145 x 270mm). If necessary offer the rear enclosure up to the wall
to check alignment. Do not use the enclosure as a template for
drilling.
3. Drill holes in the wall on the marked positions. Select appropriate
screws, wall plugs etc., for the type of wall, bearing in mind that the
weight of the complete phone is around 5kg.
IMPORTANT:USE ONLY countersunk-headed fixing screws. Check
that screws seat properly in the plastic bushes to ensure a
watertight seal. Do not use excessive tightening force, as this may
crack the case.

Titan, Commander, standard keypad 13
4. Ensure that all four plastic flanged bushes are in place and the rear
enclosure is screwed tightly to the surface to prevent any water
ingress through the punched holes.
5. Complete the installation by making the appropriate connections
(section 6) and re-fitting the face plate.
5.2.2 Pole mounting
Kit No 100-02-0208-001
This accessory is for mounting GAI-Tronics telephones on to the side of
round poles of 100mm to 200mm diameter, or on to square or
rectangular section uprights of 100mm to 150mm across the mounting
surface.
NOTE:
Banding straps (large scale worm-drive clamps) are not included in this
kit and must be obtained separately. For details of where banding can
be obtained, refer to GAI-Tronics.
1. Using a suitable tool, punch out the 4 outer holes in the rear
enclosure, taking care not to damage or dislodge the plastic
bushes.
2. Attach the pole mounting clamp assemblies to the rear enclosure
using the M6 x 25 screws provided, pushing the screws through
from inside the phone.

14 Titan, Commander, standard keypad
3. Tighten nuts to a torque of 4.5Nm max.
IMPORTANT: avoid the use of power tools. Spinning the nuts too
quickly can cause a rapid increase in heat which can cause the nuts
to seize as a result of galling or cold-welding.
Note: only use the outer four holes, and ensure that the screws seat
properly in the plastic bushes to avoid water ingress.
4. Ensuring that the glands are at the bottom, pass a proprietary
banding strap round each of the pole mounting clamps and the
support pole. Tighten securely.
5. Continue the installation by making the appropriate connections
(section 6) and re-fitting the face plate.
6. Re-tighten the straps firmly and trim off any excess band material.
For security the driving head of the band may also be sawn off.
5.2.3 Flush mounting
Titan telephones supplied for flush mounting have a slightly different
faceplate to those supplied with a rear enclosure – in particular the fixing
holes are in different positions and there are no corner cut-outs (for door
hinges). These models are usually described as “Titan fp” and the
supplied mounting kit contains round-headed screws and no glands.
Note that it is the installer’s responsibility to prevent moisture coming
into contact with the electronics and connections on the back of the
faceplate.

Titan, Commander, standard keypad 15
To flush-mount the telephone to a wall:
1. Prepare a recess (at least 50mm deep) in the wall according to the
dimensions shown.
2. Mark the wall with hole centres based on the dimensions shown
(155 x 326mm). If necessary offer the faceplate up to the wall to
check alignment. Do not use the telephone as a template for
drilling.
3. Drill holes in the wall at the marked positions. Select appropriate
screws, wall plugs etc., for the type of wall, bearing in mind that the
weight of the complete phone is around 1.5kg.
4. Route the cable to within the recess, and make connections to the
telephone as shown in section 6.
5. Secure the telephone to the wall taking care not to trap any wires.
Note that the gasket on the rear of the faceplate is intended to make
a weather seal when compressed against a smooth surface. Do not
rely on this gasket to keep water out if mounting directly to rough
surfaces such as brickwork – in these cases use additional sealant
around the edges to ensure a weatherproof seal.
5.3. Commander
5.3.1 Wall mounting
To ensure weatherproof integrity when wall mounted, external cables
should enter the enclosure from the bottom via the 20mm gland entries
provided.

16 Titan, Commander, standard keypad
IMPORTANT:
Do not drill any extra holes as this will invalidate your warranty.
1. Remove rubber feet from the rear casing if fitted. Mark the wall with
hole centres based on the dimensions shown (145 x 270mm). If
necessary offer the rear casing up to the wall to check alignment.
Do not use the casing as a template for drilling..
2. Drill holes in the wall on the marked positions. Select appropriate
screws, wall plugs etc., for the type of wall, bearing in mind that the
weight of the complete phone is around 3.5kg.
3. Ensure the Rear Casing is securely attached to the vertical surface
using the four 7mm diameter screw holes provided. No sealing
washers are necessary.
IMPORTANT: Do not use countersunk headed fixing screws. Only use

6. Connections
If glands are used, insert the cable through the gland body and tighten the gland nut
sufficiently to clamp the cable, making a seal. For Titan models with rear enclosure,
ensure sufficient cable is left to allow removal of the faceplate without straining the
cable.
IMPORTANT: If only one gland entry is used, the BLACK blanking plug fitted to
the second gland position must be left in place.
6.1. Standard connections
Connect the telephone line A and B to the main terminal block CON1 as
shown.
The centre earth terminal is intended for connection to a local earth to provide
common mode protection from lightning transients. Particularly on Titan
(metal bodied) telephones, if this terminal is not earthed there is an
increased risk that the telephone could be damaged by line-borne
transients.
