1. MAIN SYSTEM EQUIPMENT
CK-100B Card Case
The CK-100B houses all system boards and can be installed in an
“EIA standard 19” rack.
MU-110 Main Control Unit
The MU-110 Main Control Unit uses a Z80 CPU to automatically
control speech path switching functions upon reception of either a
dial signal from the control station or a “call” or “privacy” signal from
any of the connected sub-stations. The MU-110 also generates time-
programmable signal tones. It provides external input/output controls
and a computer communication capability via its RS-232C port. The
MU-110 also provides the circuitry necessary to interface the DI-
100/DI-110 boards.
LU-100 Line Unit
The LU-100 contains interface circuitry for control station connection,
relay and talk-back, hybrid circuitry for sub-station connection, and a
speech path switch. The control station interface outputs a dial sig-
nal to the Main Control Unit when it receives a control station dial
signal. Other control station functions include FM signal demodula-
tion, sound amplification and power supply control for control station
and sub-station speaker talk-back capability. One control station and
up to 15 sub-stations can be connected per Line Unit. The sub-sta-
tion interface features an AGC-equipped 15W power amplifier (25V
line) for sub-station speaker talk-back, relayed switching of up to 15
sub-stations, photocoupled reception of “call” and “privacy” signals,
and hybrid circuitry for sub-station handset operation.
LU-200 Line Unit
The LU-200 contains interface circuitry for a control station, and a
speech path switch. Control stations include FM signal demodula-
tion, sound amplification, and talk-back capability. Only one control
station can be connected per LU-200.
PS-100 Power Supply Unit
The PS-100 receives AC power from the PU-200 Power Transformer
Unit, and provides 5V, 15V and 24V DC power to all other boards in
the exchange via its rectification and stabilizer circuitry. DC input is
also provided for an optional standby battery and charging circuit,
that ensures full operating capability in case of a power failure.
PU-200 Power Transformer Unit
The wall-mountable PU-200 provides two 20V/2AAC outputs to the

maximum of two PU-200s can be connected to the PS-100.
2. OPTIONAL SYSTEM EQUIPMENT
CT-100 Telephone & Tie-Line Unit
The CT-100 Telephone & Tie-Line Unit functions as an interface for
both an outside telephone line and an exchange tie-line. Its C/O
telephone line interface is compatible with both loop and ground
start systems. It uses DTMF dialing signals for each of its 2 outside
lines, or one C/O line and one PBX extension. The CT-100 complies
fully with FCC Parts 68 regulations, The tie-line interface permits
interconnecting of up to 9 exchanges, with 4 voice paths, 1 program
I/O, and 1 control I/O.
DI-100/Dl-110 Interface Boards
The Interface Boards allow a control station operator to make or
receive calls from other stations via a single switch on a custom or
off-the-shelf control panel. Calls to or from corresponding sub-sta-
tions can be announced by flashing LED’s on the control panel, or
by numbers shown on the displays of associated AS-100A or AS-110
control stations.

FUNCTIONS
1. Conversation
Call from a Sub-Station
Pressing the RS-100 switch panel CALL switch or picking up the sub-station
handset initiates a call-in to the control station, indicated by a flashing LED
on the switch panel.
Pressing the PUSH-TO-TALK switch or picking up the AS-100A or AS-110
control station handset enables conversation, with the LED indicator fully on.
Conversations through the sub-station speaker are automatic half-duplex
with the voice switch and manual half-duplex with the PUSH-TO-TALK
switch. Sub-station handset conversations are full-duplex, converting to half-
duplex when the PUSH-TO-TALK switch is used.
The LED indicator goes off at the end of a conversation.
Pressing the CALL switch continuously for more than 3 seconds initiates an
emergency call to the control station, setting off the emergency status dis-
play at the control station.
Call from a Control Station
Dialing a station number with the keypad initiates a calling tone and sets up
a voice link. Hands-free conversation is half-duplex when the PUSH-TO-
TALK switch is used, and automatic with the voice switch.
Pressing the [#/C] key or replacing the handset terminates the conversation.
2. Display
The AS-100A/AS-110 control station is equipped with a 12-digit LCD display
for the calling party’s station number and priority level, or the numbers of the
stations on hold. Holding station capacity is 120 per system. Current time,
control station privacy status, time schedule status, sub-station mode dis-
play or a message from a personal computer can be displayed while the
control station is on-hook (in idle status).
3. Privacy
Pressing the RS-100 switch panel PRIVACY switch puts the sub-station in
privacy mode and causes the privacy LED to go on. In privacy mode,
incoming calls are refused. The sub-station can still be called, but sub-sta-
tion conversations cannot be heard. Pressing the switch again cancels the
privacy mode. Pressing the [*] key on a control station twice puts it into pri-
vacy mode, causing incoming calls from other control stations to be refused.
Pressing [*] and [#/C] cancels the privacy mode.
4. Alert Tone
While a control station and a sub-station are connected, a periodic alert tone
can be sent to the stations to prevent sub-station conversations from inad-
vertently being overheard by the control station.
5. Time-Out
Conversation, sub-station calling, paging and PBX conversation can be
automatically reset within a programmable time frame.
6. Priority
Five levels of priority can be established for all individual station calls, dis-
played in the following order: (1) Emergency (2) Priority (3) Alarm (4)
Normal (5) Staff.
7. Paging
Sub-Station Paging
Permits simultaneous paging of up to 10 individual sub-stations.
Zone Paging
Permits simultaneous paging of pre-programmed combinations of sub-sta-
tions in zones. Up to 60 zones (59 zones + all zones) can be established,
regardless of the number of tie-lined exchanges.
Combination Zone Paging
Permits simultaneous paging of pre-programmed combinations of zones. Up
to 9 combinations can be established, regardless of the number of tie-lined
exchanges.
All-Call Paging
Permits simultaneous paging through all the stations assigned to all zones
and external PA speakers.
Emergency All-Call Paging
Takes precedence over all other functions to permit simultaneous paging
through all the stations assigned to all zones and external PA speakers
assigned to all-call.
External Microphone All-Call Paging
All-Call paging can be performed from a connected external microphone
after activation with an external switch.
PA Paging
Permits All-Call or zone paging through a connected external PA system. An
auxiliary selection device can control PA zone selection output, making up to
three different PA zones possible.
8. Program Source Output
Permits broadcast of a selectable program source to individual sub-stations,
zones, combination zones and all zones.
9. Time Signal
Permits broadcast of time signals to individual sub-stations, zones, combina-
tion zones, and all zones. Time signals can either be automatically output at
preset times using the system’s programmable clock, six external time sig-
nal trigger inputs, or manually output from a control station.
The programmable clock permits programming of 8 separate 32-event
schedules.
Schedules can be selected at the control station. Built-in time signals are (1)
an FM quality, high-fidelity generation of the Westminster Chimes, and (2) a
‘trill tone’. Provision exists for input of up to 3 alternate, user-supplied tones.
An external bell relay can be driven either by itself, or in conjunction with
any tone or tone input.
10. Call Transfer
Calls between control stations or to a sub-station can be transferred to a
third station.
11. Call Forwarding
All calls to a control station can be automatically forwarded to any other
locally pre-designated control station. This function can also be used to for-
ward calls to/from the external C/O telephone lines.
Auto-Call C/O Transfer
This function permits handset sub-station calls to a control station registered
for this function to be automatically forwarded to a programmed C/O tele-
phone number. The auto-call C/O transfer function can be operated in one
of two ways, either directly by a control station, or by external make-contact
inputs typically controlled by an external timer, etc.
Control Station Group Call (Selectable Function)
All control stations pre-programmed for the same group can be called simul-
taneously from a sub-station. Up to 8 groups of 8 stations each can be pro-
grammed.
12. Speed Dialing
Up to ten station, telephone or paging numbers can be registered for con-
venient speed dialing.
13. Redialing
The last number dialed at a control station can be automatically re-dialed
with a touch of the REDIAL key.
14. Conference
Calls can be made from a control station to up to two other control or sub-
station numbers.
15. External Telephone (C/O) Line Communication
Up to 2 external telephone Iines can be connected to the exchange via the
CT-100 C/O & Tie-Line Unit. External-line incoming or outgoing call capabili-
ty can be independently assigned to all control stations
PBX Extension Communication
All stations can access the PBX using the CT-100 C/O & tie-line card. The
CT-100 features two outside C/O line terminals which can be registered for
either C/O line or PBX extension use by system programing. Only one out-
side C/O Iine terminal may be connected to the PBX extension
16. Personal Computer Connection
The exchange can be connected to an external personal computer via the
RS-232C connector attached to the MU-110 Main Control Unit. System pro-
gramming and maintenance can then be easily performed at the computer’s
keyboard, with password protection.

tion LCD display, and acknowledgments in turn displayed on the computer
monitor.
18. Tie-Line Connection
Up to 9 exchanges can be interconnected using the CT-100 C/O & Tie-Line
Board to provide extended communication capability to a maximum of 72
control stations and 1,080 sub-stations. The maximum number of 60 pro-
grammable zones and 9 combination zones remains limited to 9 each,
regardless of the number of interconnected exchanges
19. Duress Alarm
The Control Station can be pre-programmed to automatically transmit an
emergency status call to all other control stations when the handset is
removed from the cradle and a call or page is not started within 6 seconds.
The control station in emergency can then be called by another control sta-
tion, whether or not the handset of the control station in emergency has
been replaced.
20. Emergency Call
