Page 3: General Information
2 general information the following general procedures must be observed in relation to the location and installation of system one home communication components: stations are not to be installed “back to back” or in “line of sight” of each other as this will cause feed-back (squealing). Where statio...
Page 4: Location of Equipment
3 location of equipment master station (optional, special order only) where a master has been purchased as part of the system, it is generally located above the breakfast bar in the kitchen/family room at a suggested height of 55” from the floor to the center of the unit. As all wiring from other st...
Page 5: Room Stations
4 room stations careful consideration must be given to present and/or future layout of furniture so as not to locate stations in inappropriate positions. To avoid audio feedback, room stations should be kept at least 12 to 16 feet away from other stations. Never have more than one station in any one...
Page 6: Front Door/gate Station(S)
5 front door/gate station(s) these stations are best located adjacent to the front door or at the front gate at a suggested height of 55” and may require a wall box depending upon the surface to which they are to be affixed. Any station exposed to the weather will require the fitting of a weatherpro...
