1 Setting up
Connect to Power
Plug each station into an outlet and place it directly on a
desk, shelf, table or on a wall.
wImportant: Stations can transmit up to 300 feet and
between buildings as long as they are connected to the
same power line transformer.
n Note: Make sure you install the stations at least 10Make sure you install the stations at least 10
feet away from each other. Placing the stations too close
together produces feedback and creates a squealing sound.
Mounting
To mount a station on the wall, you need two screws (not
supplied) with heads that fit into the keyhole slots on the
bottom of the stations.
1. Select a location for the station. Mark the mounting
screw locations on the wall 2
9
/16 in. (64.8 mm) apart,
one above the other.
2. Drill holes at the marked locations.
3. Thread a screw into each hole allowing the screw
heads to extend
about

/8 in. (3 mm)
from the wall.
4. Align the keyhole slots
on the bottom of the
station with the screw
heads in the wall.
Slide the station down
onto the screws to
secure the station.
2 Communicating
Setting the Channel
Each station has three channels, so you can select which
station or stations will communicate. You can also use a
station to monitor sounds near another station.
For example, you could set a station installed in the
kitchen to Channel A, a station installed in the family
room to Channel B, and a station installed in a bedroom
to Channel C. Using the station in the kitchen, you can
communicate with the station in the family room by
setting the channel selector to B, or with the station in
the bedroom by setting the channel selector to C.
Set the channel switch on each station as follows:
• If you want all the stations to communicate with each
other, set all stations to the same channel.
• If you want to use a station to communicate with only
one other station, set only two stations to the same
channel.
Turning a Station On
Rotate VOLUME counterclockwise until it clicks. Then
adjust VOLUME to a comfortable listening level. To turn
off, rotate VOLUME clockwise until it clicks.
Calling Another Station
Be sure the stations you plan to use are turned on and
adjusted to the desired volume level.
1. Set the channel selector to the channel (A, B, or C) of
the station(s) you are calling.
2. Press CALL. Each station that is on and set to the
selected channel sounds a tone.
3. Hold down TALK and speak. When you finish
speaking, release TALK and listen for a response.
nNotes:
• Only one party can talk on a channel at a time.
• The TALK indicator on the station you are using
remains lit as long as you hold down TALK or CALL,
or when you press LOCK.
• If your voice sounds distorted, you might be speaking
too loudly or too close to the microphone.
• Set the channel selector back to your designated
channel after you finish talking, so others can easily
reach you.
3Monitoring

sounds to another station.
nNote: You can monitor only one station at a time.
1. Press LOCK on the station in the area you want to
monitor. The TALK indicator lights.

Using Additional Stations
You can add additional stations to your intercom system
as long as they transmit on the same frequency —A (200—A (200
kHz), B (270 kHz), or C (230 kHz). Be sure the frequency. Be sure the frequency
on the stations you plan to add matches the frequency
on your current stations. If you want to set up a separate

different frequency.
