DESCRIPTION
The IEDA520FME-H is an expansion station that interfaces
to a 528 series microphone station through an IEDA528E
expansion board. Up to three (3) expansion stations can be
connected to a parent station to expand paging capability
of the system. Each expansion connects to its parent
a station using Category 5e or better cabling and utilizes
the parent station’s CPU and Ethernet interface to transmit
announcements through the system.
Each expansion station has a push-to-talk (PTT) switch
located on the hand-held microphone. This PTT switch is
directly tied to the PTT switch on the parent station so the
PTT functions are identical between the parent and all slave
stations. The PTT switch can be configured to initiate a live
or a recorded announcement. A user can go to the parent
528 series station or any of the expansion stations and
achieve the same announcement results by simply picking
up and keying the microphone.
The IEDA520FME-H can be mounted in a standard 2-gang
electrical box or a standard 4-gang electrical box. It can
also be mounted to a 528 series backbox or a standard
4-gang electrical box using the IEDA528SKA adapter plate.
The optional IEDA528SKBB backbox can be purchased to
mount the unit on a standard single-gang electrical box or
on the IEDA520DTB desktop base for desktop mounting.
