DESIGN
General
The V-1050C may be used to provide one-way paging
from any Valcom one-way or talkback page control
unit. A standard Valcom paging system is made up of
three basic components:
•Page Control Unit
•Speakers
•Power Supply
Consult Valcom's One-way Paging VSP for detailed
information on selecting the control unit and power
supply.
Special Applications
The V-1050C may be connected directly to the
speaker in most electronic key telephones to amplify
the level of the speaker and broadcast it to a large
area. A power supply will also be required.
The V-1050C may be used to expand a constant
voltage (25/70/100 Volt) paging system without
placing an additional load on the amplifier by adding a
V-1095, 70V Paging Expander. A power supply will
also be required.

The first figure given is the side to side distance to
use when mounting the horns. The second figure is
the front to back distance between horns. The third

Mounting
The V-1050C should be mounted 12'to 25'high to
obtain optimum results and may be used for either
interior or exterior applications.
•Loosen the wing nut to remove both speakers
from the mounting bracket. Position the
mounting bracket as desired and then re-attach
speakers to the bracket.
Both horns of the V-1050C may be rotated or moved
up and down to obtain the desired position by
loosening the position adjustment knob at the bottom
of each horn approximately one turn, locating the
desired angle placement and re-tighten the knob.
Connection to an electrical box is accomplished by
channeling the wire through the hole in the base.
Holes are punched in the plate for mounting to a
double-gang square box, single-gang or octagon box.
