DESIGN
The V-9962 is designed to eliminate paging system
acoustic feedback with an option to prevent DTMF
tones from being broadcast through the paging system.
When a page is made, the message is digitized and
saved. Upon completion of the live page, the message
is released to play over the system speakers. This
eliminates the offensive squeal of feedback commonly
produced by telephones or microphones when making a
page.

INSTALLATION
Cabling
A 25 pair cable with a female amphenol connector
should be run from the feedback eliminator to a 66B
type punchdown block. The cable should be terminated
on the block in standard color code order. (See Figure
2).
Mounting
NOTE: DO NOT install the V-9962 or its wiring
closer than 18" to a power supply or any equipment
that generates electrical noise.
___ 1. Using four #6 -1/2" wood screws, mount the
feedback eliminator in a vacant space on the
backboard.
___ 2. Mount a 66B type punchdown block near the
unit and label the block per Figure 2.
___ 3. Connect the 25 pair cable to the punchdown
block per standard color code order.
___ 4. Connect the female amphenol connector to the
V-9962.
Connections
___ 1. Connect zone outputfrom a 600 ohm page port
or Valcom page control to Audio In Tip
(W/BL) and Audio In Ring (BL/W) on the
punchdown block. (See Note at end of this
section).
___ 2. Connect page enable contact closure (if
available -this is an optional connection) to
COM (R/BL) and RECORD (BL/R) on the
punchdown block.
___ 3. Connect Tip lead or terminal of amplified
speaker(s) to output 2; speaker level 8Ω
(W/BR) on the punchdown block.
___ 4. Connect Ring lead or terminal of amplified
speaker(s) to output 2; speaker level return
(BR/W) on the punchdown block.
___ 5. Connect -24Vdc from a filtered-24Vdc power
supply to pin 24 (BR/V) on the punchdown
block.
___ 6. Connect GND of the power supply to pin 49
(V/BR) on the punchdown block.
___ 7. Plug in power supply.
___ 8. The POWER ON LED on the V-9962 should
illuminate. (IF POWER ON LED does not light,
then using a voltmeter, measure voltage
between power terminals with negative probe
at pin #24 and positive at pin #49. If reading is
reversed, unplug power supply, verify V/BR
and BR/V pairs are properly connected at the
punchdown block and connector).
See Figure 3 for simplified block diagrams of typical
configurations.
NOTE: The input level must be attenuated using a V-
1092 to prevent distortion if exceeding nominal input
levels for the V-9962; i.e., when used on a zone of
Valcom talkback page control (for one-way paging).

Setting Program Dip Switches
There are two sets of dip switches on the V-9962 (See
Figure 4) which provide user selectable Options.
The 8-position dip switch (SW-272-1)
offers the following choices:
Maximum Recording Length:
#1 Off 60 sec. at 3.4 Khz Bandwidth
#1 On 30 sec. at 6.8 Khz Bandwidth
DTMF Options:
#2 Off, #3 Off DTMF, No restrictions
#2 On, #3 OffDTMF, Allow two bursts
#2 Off, #3 On DTMF, Allow one burst
#2 On, #3 On DTMF, Choke (Abort)
Record Setup:
#4 On, #5 Off Activate RECORD by DTMF (One
Pulse).
#4 Off, #5 On Activate RECORD by Audio Sensor.
NOTE: Activate RECORD by external dry contact is
always functional regardless of switch settings.
Play Setup:
#6 Off, #7 Off Play while active by external contact.
#6 On, #7 Off Play once active by external contact.
#6 Off, #7 On Auto-repeat once. No external
contact needed.
#6 On, #7 On Auto-repeat twice.
#8 On Play Pre-page tone.
The 4-position dip switch (SW-272-2)
offers the following selections:
Page Delay:
(Delay time after recording ends before page play).
#1 Off, #2 Off 1 second delay.
#1 On, #2 Off 3 second delay.
#1 Off, #2 On 5 second delay.
#1 On, #2 On 10 second delay.
#3 and #4 -Spare switches.
Typical dipswitch setting is:
SW272-1SW272-2
#1 ON #1 OFF
#2 ON #2 OFF
#3 ON #3 N/A
#4 OFF #4 N/A
#5 ON
#6 OFF
#7 ON
#8 OFF
Volume Control Setup
There are three volume controls on the V-9962.
VOX -Adjusts the voice sensitivity of the record by
VOX or DTMF activation. (Typical
adjustment of this control is completely
clockwise).
LINE-Adjusts level of page from Output 1 line level
600Ωoutput.
SPKR-Adjusts level of page from Output 2 speaker
level 8Ωoutput.
OPERATION
For proper operation, the V-9962 must receive a
RECORD command. This command will be from an
external source in the form of:
1. External dry contact closure: Between
terminals #6 (BL/R)(Record), and #31
(R/BL)(Com). The unit will record as long as
the contact closure is supplied to the unit or
until the maximum record time is reached.
When the Closure signal is removed, the V-
9962 automatically switches modes to re-play
the "just recorded" page. The re-play will be
played according to options selected during
set-up.

2. DTMF Digitsent on audio lines: If the paging
system allows DTMF tones to be generated
by paging stations, the V-9962 can be
activated by enabling its internal detector to
start Recording. Recording will end
approximately 3 seconds after audio detection
ends. (If switches 2 and 3 of SW272-1 are in
the "on" position, this enables DTMF abort.
This allows the paging party to cancel their
message by pressing any button on their
telephone tone pad during recording).
3. Voice Operation (VOX): Recording will begin
at the start of actual paging; recording will end
approximately 3 seconds after the completion
of the page.
4. Play External Contact: By applying a dry
contact closure between COM (R/O) and Play
(O/R), the V-9962 will play the last recorded
message.
5. Auto Repeat Setup: The unit is normally set to
automatically playback the "just finished"
page as soon as the RECORD contact goes
away. This feature allows the user to set the
number of automatic repeats, one or two.
6. Pre-page Tone: This option inserts an alert
tone (the DTMF number 0) prior to the auto-
repage function.
7. Page Delay: This option inserts the selected
time delay between the end of record and the
time PLAY relay is activated and plays back
the recorded page.
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
When trouble is reported, verify the unit is turned on
and there are no broken connections leading to the unit.
Assistance in troubleshooting is available from the
factory. When calling, you should have a VOM and a
telephone test set available and be calling from the job
site. Call [phone] and ask for an Applications
Engineer.
VALCOM equipment is not field repairable. VALCOM
