COMMUNICATION & SECURITY SOLUTIONS
Add Two-Way Voice Communication
to Your Existing IP Network Camera
Features
It is common for IP based network cameras to have two-
way audio connections. When this is the case, the MSB-
30 can be added to turn your IP network camera into a
VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) video phone, allowing
both voice and video to stream over the internet. If the
camera already has a tiny speaker and microphone, the
MSB-30 can be added to get better and louder sounding
audio by using the audio input and output connections
provided by the camera. The MSB-30 has a microphone,
a speaker, and a momentary push button housed in a
stainless steel flush mount panel. An optional Viking
model VE-5x5 can be used to surface mount the unit to a
wall or pedestal.
The MSB-30 line level audio input and output connections
can be directly connected to the IP camera’s line level
audio output and input connections for two-way voice
communications. A built-in 2 watt amplifier powers the in-
ternal speaker, and there are volume controls to adjust
both the speaker volume and microphone sensitivity. The
2 watt amplifier can be used to power an auxiliary speaker
for even greater volume and coverage.
The MSB-30 also has a momentary “CALL” button switch
which can provide a momentary contact closure to trigger
the IP network camera, or ring a door bell. The front panel
blue LED lights continuously to show the unit is powered,
and to help identify the “CALL” button location at night. An
external contact closure can be used to turn off the blue
LED, or simply wire it in parallel with the momentary “Call”
button switch to make the blue LED wink off when the but-
ton is pressed.
The MSB-30-EWP adds Enhanced Weather Protection
(EWP). Use for outdoor installations where the unit is ex-
posed to precipitation or condensation. EWP products fea-
ture foam rubber gaskets and boots, sealed connections,
gel-filled butt connectors, as well as urethane or thermal
plastic potted circuit boards with internally sealed, field-
adjustable trim pots. For more info, see DOD# 859.

A. Mounting
The optional VE-5x5 Surface
Mount Box is designed to be surface mounted
to a single gang box, double gang box or VE-
GNP gooseneck pedestal (right). For more in-
formation on the VE-5x5 and VE-GNP see
DOD# 424.
Important: The MSB-30 will NOT
mount to a standard double gang box.
Caution: When warm air comes in contact with cold surfaces, such as outside walls and conduits, it causes con-
densation. To prevent condensation from accumulating inside the MSB-30 always bring conduit into the bottom
of the unit. If this is not possible, drill a 1/4” diameter hole in the bottom of the black plastic box.
*Note: Peel off paper liner and adhere gasket to the back of the faceplate, centering it over the four corner mount-
ing holes.
Note: The plastic rough-in box (part # 259576) may be purchased
separately in advance. Go to www.vikingelectronics.com and
click on “Spare Parts”.

Each of the MSB-30’s features can be used a’ la carte. So depending on your application, connect only the features
that are needed.
1. If microphone audio is needed, connect the MIC AUDIO OUT (yellow wires) to the camera’s Line Level Audio
In connections.
2. If arrival notification is needed, connect the PUSH BUTTON (black wires) to a trigger or alarm input, or use in
place of an existing doorbell.
3. If controlling the front panel blue LED light is needed, connect the LED CONTROL (blue wires) to a normally
open set of contacts. The blue LED will go dark when the contacts are closed. The LED CONTROL can also be
connected directly to the PUSH BUTTON (black wires) to make the blue LED wink off when the “CALL” button is
pressed.
If the camera has a motion sensing feature that is used for detecting the arrival of a person, connect the PUSH
BUTTON (black wires) to the LED CONTROL (blue wires) to give appearance the “CALL” button is functional
when pressed.
4. If additional speaker volume is needed, connect the AUX SPEAKER (white wires) to up to three 8 ohm speakers.
5. If speaker audio is needed, connect the AUDIO IN (orange wires) to the camera’s Line Level Audio Output.
6. When all else is wired, connect the 12-15V AC OR DC (red/black wires) to the provided power supply adapter.

Operation
Each of the MSB-30 features operates independently, so any or all of them can be use or not used. Listed below is
how each of the features operates.
1. MIC AUDIO OUT is a line level audio output of the audio picked up by the MSB-30’s internal microphone. The
output level (or sensitivity of the microphone), can be adjusted with the volume control labeled “MIC”.
2. AUDIO IN is a line level input that is amplified with an on-board 2 watt amplifier to drive the MSB-30’s internal
speaker. The speaker volume can be adjusted with the volume control labeled “SPEAKER”.
3. AUX SPEAKER is an additional speaker output, driven from the same 2 watt internal amplifier, that can drive up to
an additional three 8 ohm speakers. Viking models 30AE and 35AE ceiling speakers can be used for indoor applica-
tions, and the Viking model 25AE paging horn can be used for outdoor, factory, or warehouse environments.
4. PUSH BUTTON is a normally open set of contacts that momentarily close when the front paneled “Call” button is
pressed.
5. LED CONTROL is a normally open input that will turn off the front panel blue LED light when a contact closure is
provided.
6. 12 – 15V AC OR DC is the power supply input. The MSB-30 comes with an included 13.8VAC power adapter.
