Introduction

About this ManualThis installation and operation manual provides information on installing and operating the TX3 Series Telephone Access System line of products. Specifically, this manual provides information on

• Installing and configuring ADC and NSL systems

• Installing and configuring entry panels

• Installing and configuring Elevator Restriction Units

• TX3 system programming

• Networking the TX3 with Card Access

About the TX3Mircom's TX3 series of telephone access systems provide high quality two-way communication between residents and their visitors in a multi-unit dwelling establishment. The TX3 system consists of one or more network nodes connected together in a peer-to-peer arrangement using RS-485. Valid network nodes are Entry Panel, the Elevator Restriction Unit and the Card Access Unit. Refer to the Card Access manual for further information on this product.

A maximum of 31 nodes are supported with any combination of Entry Panels, Elevator Restriction Units and Card Access Units. Valid node addresses are 1 to 31. Address node 1 should be assigned to an Entry Panel or a Card Access Unit, since these units are the only ones with a Real Time clock.

The TX3 may be configured as an ADC (Autodialer controller) system, which requires a dedicated subscriber telephone line. Alternatively, the TX3 may be configured as an NSL (No Subscriber Line) system, which does not require a separate telephone line because it uses the existing telephone lines in the building for communication.

Both system setups can be configured for multiple entrances with independent doors and control devices such as electric door locks, cameras, and garage doors. An ADC system consists of one or more entry panels that are connected to an outside telephone line for calling access to suites. This mode also allows the visitor access to any voice mail capabilities and call waiting if present on the resident telephone line. An NSL system consists of one or more entry panels that are connected to TX3-NSL-8M NSL Units (usually located in the electrical/telephone room of a building). The NSL units intercept all telephone lines into the building’s suites, allowing the system to seize the line after checking to see if it is in use.

FeaturesFeatures of the TX3 series include:

• Storage for large numbers of residents / suites.

• Entry panel unit models available with simple numeric entry (type in the suite number found on a list at the Entry Panel) and a scrolling directory (a list of resident / suite names appears on the electronic Entry Panel display) or just a scrolling directory.

• Supports DTMF or rotary dial service.

• Many features are configurable per suite.

• Door override connection for fire alarm; doors will open during emergency.

• Built-in post office lock microswitch.

• Connection for "lock back" door contact to provide door timer cutoff to prevent "tailgating".

• Microcontroller-based design with data protection on stored memory and configuration.

• Configuration may be entered via the lobby unit keypad and display or via Personal Computer Configuration Software (Windows XP/ SP2 based).

• Tri-lingual display: select from English, French and Spanish.

• Event History Log for visitors and keyless entry.

• Extensive transient protection.

• Uses energy-limited transformers for power supplies.

FCC Notice for all TX3 Products Sold in the U.S.A.

Type of ServiceThe TX3 is designed to be used on standard device telephone lines. It connects to the telephone line by means of astandard jack called the USOC RJ-11C (or USOC FJ45S). Connection to telephone company-provided coin service(central office implemented systems) is prohibited. Connection to party lines service is subject to state tariffs.

Telephone Company ProceduresThe goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it can. In order to do this, it mayoccasionally be necessary for them to make changes in their equipment, operations or procedures. If thesechanges might affect your service or the operation of your equipment, the telephone company will give you notice,in writing, to allow you to make any changes necessary to maintain uninterrupted service.

In certain circumstances, it may be necessary for the telephone company to request information from youconcerning the equipment which you have connected to your telephone line. Upon request of the telephonecompany, provide the FCC registration number and the ringer equivalence number (REN); both of these items arelisted on the equipment label. The sum of all of the RENs on your telephone lines should be less than five in orderto assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may not be useable on a givenline.

If Problems AriseIf any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from your telephoneline, as it may cause harm to the telephone network. If the telephone company notes a problem, they maytemporarily discontinue service. When practical, they will notify you in advance of this disconnection. If advancenotice is not feasible, you will be notified as soon as possible. When you are notified, you will be given theopportunity to correct the problem and informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. Contact yourtelephone company if you have any questions about your telephone line. In the event repairs are ever needed onthe Communicator, they should be performed by Mircom or an authorized representative of Mircom.

NSL System

NSL (No Subscriber Line) operation does not use any Bell telephone (or other local telephone company) lines, but uses TX3-NSL-8M NSL Units (and TX3-8EC/16 NSL Expanders) in electrical/telephone rooms to intercept all resident Bell (or other local) telephone lines coming into a building and communicate directly to the residents.

Figure 9: NSL Two-Building, Three Entry Panel (Independent Access)A two-building, three Entry Panel NSL configuration. Each building’s Entry Panel (only one is shown per building, but there could actually be more, such as for multi-entrances) uses one audio line. The parking garage entry panel uses two audio lines. Each TX3-NSL-8M NSL Unit (and any TX3-8EC/TX3-16EC NSL Expanders) accepts one audio line; one audio line for its own building’s entry panel, and one for the parking garage entry panel are connected to the one connection on the TX3-NSL-8M NSL Unit. This allows the Entry Panel in each building to call residents in that building independently of each other, and the garage Entry Panel can call residents in either building (although while the garage Entry Panel is calling a resident in a building, that building’s own Entry Panel is locked out).

TX3-NSL-8M NSL (No Subscriber Line) Relay Unit

The TX3-NSL-8M NSL Relay Unit includes a cabinet for mounting into an electrical/telephone room. In this cabinet there is the Main NSL Controller Board and one NSL backplane. Up to eight 2012 NSL Relay Boards (12 relays per board) may be installed on the NSL backplane, allowing for 96 relays in this enclosure. The TX3-8EC NSL Eight Relay Backplane Expander or TX3-16EC NSL 16 Relay Backplane Expander, each in their own cabinet, may be added (interconnected with two cables) providing additional capacity for 8 or 16 more relay boards respectively. A total of 16 backplanes may be installed, allowing for up to 1536 relays (16 x 8 x 12). The TX3-NSL-8M and any TX3-8EC and/or TX3-16EC must all be adjacent to each other, mounted on the same wall and in the same room.

The TX3-NSL-8M NSL Unit (and any TX3-8EC/TX3-16EC NSL Relay Backplane Expanders) performs the following functions:

• Switching, involving the telephone lines, Resident lines and the Entry Panel(s).

• Generating call waiting tones to the resident.

• Providing a speech path to the Entry Panel(s).

• Up to five speech paths may be defined (at the Entry Panel) so that any individual Entry Panel may communicate with multiple TX3-NSL-8M NSL Units.

• Low power operation from one 16V AC transformer.

Each TX3 Entry Control panel uses one of the five speech paths to communicate to a Telephone Company Telephone line (for ADC Type) or to a Relay Control unit (for NSL Type).

For each telephone company line, a speech path is required to the entry control panel.

There are many possibilities for connecting Entry Control panels and Relay Control Units, but each main entry panel requires one individual audio path to each Relay Control Unit. Expansion relay control units do not require an individual speech path.

BACKPLANE NUMBER SELECTION

The backplanes in a system are numbered sequentionally to identify the relays contained on the backplane. The first backplane is number 1, therefore the jumper is placed in posi-tion 1 as shown above. As backplane number 1, the first relay of the first card in position 1 will have address 1 (i.e. Relay #1) and the second relay of the first card in position 1 will have address 2 (i.e. Relay #2) and the first relay of the second card in position 2 will have addres 13 (i.e. Relay #13) and so on.

The next cabinet or Elevator Restriction main controller board will need the jumper placed on the 2 position. Therefore the first relay of the first card in position 1 will have address 97. The second relay of the first card in position 1 will have address 98 and so on.

2012 NSL Relay Board Wiring

44

2012 NSL Relay Board Wiring

The 2012 NSL Relay Board plugs into the backplane boards of the NSL units. There may be up to eight relay boards in each backplane board (to a maximum of 128 relay boards for 16 NSL backplane boards). In each NSL backplane the relay boards are numbered 1 to 8, starting from the bottom of the backplane and going to the top. Each relay board provides for connection to 12 suite (resident) telephone lines, for a maximum of 1536 per system.

Connections are made via CA-71A BIX Block or RJ-71C Punch Down Block Wiring Configuration. The CA-71A (for Canada) and RJ-71C (for U.S.A.) wiring configurations of BIX and Punch Down Block are shown on pages 46 and 48. Normally, the required blocks are installed by the telephone company. Each block serves up to 12 telephone lines. The 50-pin amphenol connector on the BIX block is connected to the 2012 relay card using the standard 9106 cable. Contact the telephone company at least three weeks before the actual installation to order the required blocks. Complete the CA-71A or RJ-71C Block Identification Forms (on pages 47 and 49, respectively) for the telephone installer. The form tells the telephone installer how the telephone lines should be wired to the BIX/Punch Down Blocks. All BIX Blocks should be installed as close as possible to the NSL unit to which they connect.

The following information must be given to the telephone company:

• Telephone numbers of the lines to which the TX3 system will be connected.

• The Industry Canada registration number for Canada or the FCC registration number for U.S.A.

• The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of the TX3 system.

Notes:• RJ-71C wiring configuration is not recognized by all telephone companies. For Bell Canada who has

jurisdiction for Ontario and Quebec, refer to CA-71A block for interconnect to the telephone entry systems.

• Since there are two types of block wiring configuration, CA-71A and RJ-71C, we recommend that you contact the telephone company as to what block wiring configuration is available. We suggest using Mircom's standard 9106 cable for CA-71A or RJ-71C configured blocks since they are straightforward and easy to use.

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

•Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

•Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

•Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.


71

•Software

Most Mircom products contain software. With respect to those products, Mircom does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Mircom shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

•Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.
