1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The IC100 and IC200 are cabled drive-thru
audio systems primarily for use in quick-
service restaurants. The differences between
the two systems are described below. All units
have digital touch controls for easy operation.
IC100 - The IC100 is a single-channel intercom
system for communication between the
order taker and drive-thru customer.
It has a stand-alone base station
IC200 - The IC200 is a dual-channel intercom system. It has a base station that is used
alone for single-channel communication between the order taker and drive-thru
customer. With the addition of a remote station, it can be used for dual-channel
communication. Channel A is used for communication between the order taker
and drive-thru customer, while Channel B is used for communication between the
order taker and other employees within hearing range of the remote station.

1.4 CONTROLS, SWITCHES AND CONNECTORS
1.4.1 FRONT PANEL:
The front panel on the IC100 and IC200 base stations and the IC200R Remote Station are
identical, except the IC200 and IC200R have channel B buttons with TALK and LISTEN lights.
The front panel controls are as follows.
POWER light comes on when the unit is plugged in, and the OFF ON switch is in the ON
position. It remains on as long as the unit is receiving power.
VEHICLE light comes on when a vehicle approaches the outside speaker. The light is
accompanied by a vehicle-present signal (beeping). The light remains on as long as the
vehicle is present, but the beeping stops as soon as the channel A button is pressed.
For systems with a pulse-detection vehicle detector such as an air hose, the vehicle light
will go off when the STANDBY button is pressed.
STANDBY light comes on when the unit is turned on. The STANDBY light remains on
whenever the intercom is in the standby mode.
TALK light comes on when the A or B button is pressed.
LISTEN light comes on when the A or B button is released.
STANDBY button is used to put a customer on hold. To resume speaking to the
customer, press and hold the channel A button. The STANDBY button is also used to
return to the standby mode if you are talking to a crew member on channel B.
NOTE: With some types of vehicle detectors, it may be necessary to press the STANDBY
button each time you finish speaking to a customer.
Channel A button is used to speak to the customer at the outside speaker. Press and
hold button A while speaking, and release it to listen.
Channel B button is used only to speak to other crew members through the IC200R remote
station. Whoever initiates the communication must press and hold button B while speaking,
and release it to listen. The person at the other unit can speak and listen hands-free.
Volume buttons are used to raise or lower the inbound volume (the customer's voice that
you hear through the base station speaker). Press and hold the up arrow to increase the
volume, or the down arrow to decrease the volume.

Right side Left side
1.4.2 RIGHT SIDE:
OFF ON switch located under the right side of the base station, is used to turn
the intercom on or off.
1.4.3 LEFT SIDE:
DAY NIGHT switch located under the left side of the base station, is used to
lower the outbound speaker volume in the NIGHT position, and to raise the
outbound speaker volume in the DAY position.
HANDSET connector on the left side of the base station, is used to connect an
optional handset to the intercom. When using a handset, the button on the
handset is used instead of button A, and the customer is heard through the
handset earpiece instead of through the speaker on the base station. Also, when
the handset is connected to the unit, the customer will be heard in the handset
only. The vehicle tone, however, will be heard through the speaker in the base
station.

SECTION 3. SYSTEM INSTALLATION
3.1 PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION
Before installing the IC100/IC200/IC200R, coordinate the time of installation with the store
owner/manager, to minimize disruption of business. Approximate time required for
installation is:
!for stand-alone intercom system at new store — 3½ hours
!with existing wireless audio system, where no wired intercom was previously
installed — 1½ hours
!as replacement for previously installed wired intercom — 2 hours
Be certain the site has been properly prepared according to the following guidelines.
!Electrical power must be connected and available.
!Some type of compatible vehicle detector system must already have been installed
in the drive-thru lane. The system can sense positive or negative changes,
0V to +20VDC, pulse or continuous presence.
!If the IC100/IC200 will be used as a stand-alone drive-thru intercom system, 1½ inch
(40 mm) conduit must already be installed for routing cable from the speaker post or
menu board into the building.
NOTE: If the IC100/IC200/IC200R will be installed with an existing wireless drive-
thru audio system, pulling new cables from the outside speaker and vehicle detector
to the building may not be required. Instead, IC100/200 cables can be connected to
the wireless audio system base station.
3.1.1 DETERMINING THE BEST LOCATION FOR THE IC100/IC200 BASE STATION
Discuss the preferred location of the IC100/IC200 base station with the customer,
depending on its intended use and the following considerations.
!The IC100/IC200 base station must be mounted where cables can easily be routed
from outside to the unit and/or from the unit to the wireless audio system base station.
!An AC electrical outlet must be close enough for the AC adapter cord to reach from
the outlet to the IC100/IC200 base station, or the cord will need to be extended.
3.1.2 UNPACKING THE SYSTEM
Check the packing list for each IC100/IC200/IC200R item as it is unpacked to verify
receipt of all standard components and optional equipment listed.

Figure 9. Base station on wall
Figure 10. Base station on pedestal
3.3.5 MOUNTING THE BASE STATION
The base station can be mounted on the wall or on a counter top. In either case, the unit
and its mounting bracket can be mounted directly on the wall or counter top (Figure 9), or
they can be extended from the wall or counter surface by mounting them on the optional
mounting pedestal (Figure 10). The base station can be mounted in either direction on
its mounting bracket (as shown in Figure 9). To mount the base station, follow the
instructions below.
!If you want to route the cable through the wall or counter top to the base station, drill
a hole in the mounting surface where the unit will be mounted. The hole must be
large enough for the cable to come through. Hold the mounting bracket or pedestal
flat against the surface, with its large, center hole over the hole drilled in the counter
or wall, and continue with the next step.
To mount the base station and mounting bracket directly on a wall or counter surface:
!Hold the mounting bracket flat against
its mounting surface, and use a pencil
to mark the surface through the four
drill holes on the back of the bracket.
!Drill the four holes with a 3/16" (8mm)
drill bit.
!Fasten the bracket to the surface using the
enclosed screw anchors and screws.
To mount the base station and mounting bracket using the optional pedestal:
!Hold the base of the pedestal flat against its
mounting surface, and use a pencil to mark
the surface through the four drill holes on the
base of the pedestal.
NOTE: The positions of the pedestal and
mounting bracket can be varied to achieve
the most desirable angle for mounting the
base station.
!Fasten the pedestal to the surface using the
enclosed lag screws or bolts and nuts.
!Fasten the mounting bracket to the top of the
pedestal with the four screws supplied with
the base station.
!Adjust the height of the base station by
loosening the two screws on the side of the
pedestal, raising or lowering the pedestal to
the desired level, and retightening the
screws.

Volume adjustments: (Refer to Figures 13 and 14.)
Volume adjustments (VOLUME ADJ) for the vehicle tone level
(VEH TONE), the ceiling speaker level (CEILING) and the
outbound/inbound volume level (MASTER) are located on the
rear panel of the IC100/IC200 base station.
NOTE: The MASTER VOLUME ADJ on the rear panel
controls inbound and outbound audio and vehicle tone
levels. Always adjust the MASTER VOLUME ADJ first for
optimum outbound audio.
!The VOLUME adjustments for inbound volume level are
located on the front panel keypad of the IC100/IC200.
!Adjust the MASTER VOLUME ADJ for the desired outbound volume level.
If the maximum level is not high enough, it can be increased by setting the S2
OUTBOUND ATTEN 1 and ATTEN 2 switches as shown in Figure 14. Both switches
in the ON position will provide the best audio levels in most installations.
!If the inbound volume is too high at full volume, configure the S2 OUTBOUND
ATTEN 1 or ATTEN2 switches as shown in Figure 14 to raise the outbound level.
Then readjust the master VOLUME ADJ for the desired outbound volume.
This will balance the inbound and outbound audio levels.

!Adjust the CEILING VOLUME ADJ on the rear panel of the IC100/IC200 base station
for the desired ceiling speaker volume level.
NOTE: Feedback may occur at high volume setting if the distance between the
base station and the ceiling speaker is too short, and the A TALK CEIL MUTE S2
switch is in the OFF position. If feedback does occur, either relocate the ceiling
speaker or lower the volume with the CEILING VOLUME ADJ control on the rear
panel of the IC100/IC200 base station.
