Chapter 1
Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the PAS features and capabilities.
The Priority udio Switch (P S) is designed to be installed between a transmitter site and
two control operator positions so they can share a single transmitter. The P S takes in two
4-wire audio lines each with a Push-to-Talk (PTT) lead where PTT is activated by shorting
this lead to ground. The ports are designated as Priority and Secondary. The Priority port
will seize control of the audio channel when its PTT lead is shorted to ground, otherwise the
Secondary ports audio channel and PTT state are passed through to the output port.
The P S contains two completely isolated instances of the priority switching function.
The standard P S is powered by 48VDC, which matches most telco systems. External
power supplies are available for C or other DC power operations.
Receive audio and other return leads from the transmitter are always passed back to both
controllers.

Installation and Configuration
Overview
The P S is connected between two audio sources and a single audio receiving device. There are two
instances of this operation, and they may be cascaded to allow for three inputs to a single transmitter, or
used independently with two inputs to each of two transmitters. It is usually installed at a transmitter site to
allow automatic operation by multiple control operators of the transmitter.
ll connections to the P S use RJ-45 connectors or the power connector screw terminals.
udio Source Connections:
Switched Transmit Audio Flow
Received audio from the transmitter is always passed to pins 3 & 6 of both priority and secondary devices.

The following table shows the PRIMARY, SECONDARY and OUTPUT po t pin assignments. The
OUTPUT po t Audio Out signals on pins 1 and 2 a e switched between PRIMARY and
SECONDARY po t based on the PRIMARY po t PTT (E1) input on pin 4. The two ight most

Connection details
The P S was originally designed to be placed in between a Loop channel bank and a transmitter connected
to it via an E&M Card.
Loop Telecom channel banks (V4200, AM3440, O9500, O9550, IP6704A) with 8EM, 8EMA or
QEMA cards
To connect a Loop channel bank E&M card (LEM) to the priority and/or secondary ports of the P S,
configure the LEM to operate in B-Side mode and connect with the proper RJ45 cable.
To connect to a LEM on the output side port of the P S, configure the LEM card to operate in -Side
mode and connect with the proper RJ45 cable.
Since the P S always uses the “E lead” for PTT indicator and E-Lead PTT is always done via connection
to ground, all E&M types are supported in LEM and will pass through the P S when the LEM cards are
properly configured for -side and B-side.
Charles Industries channel banks with 3652-80 and 3652-81 E&M Cards
To connect to a Charles channel Bank E&M card (CIEM), build an RJ45 cable that connects to the specific
pins on the 50 pin Telco connector (or connectors for 3252-80) for the channels that you wish to use.
To connect a CIEM to the priority and secondary ports of the P S connect the following pins to the pins in
a straight-through fashion. That is M to M, R to R, etc. The pattern is:
Pin 8 to MB, Pin 7 to M, Pin 2 to T1, Pin 6 to T, Pin 3 to R, Pin 1 to R1, Pin 4 to E and Pin 5 to EB
8
If you are connecting a CIEM to the output side ports of the P S, then you must cross over the signals and
you can only use E&M Types 4 & 5. This is because CIEM can only accept PTT input on the M-Lead, the
P S only can only signal PTT by closure to ground, and E&M types 4 & 5 are the only E&M types where
PTT is signaled by closure to ground on the M lead. The pattern is:
Pin 8 to EB, Pin 7 to E, Pin 2 to T, Pin 6 to T1, Pin 3 to R1, Pin 1 to R, Pin 4 to M and Pin 5 to MB
Other channel banks
Connections to other channel banks and E&M devices can be made by following the directions of the
signals in the chart above to connect to your device. Remember that the P S input ports can only use
closure to ground to detect PTT and the unit passes the PTT state out only via closure to ground. This
required that choose an appropriate E&M type that signals PTT or accepts PTT based on closure to ground.
Groundin
Remember that grounding is critical with E&M signaling, so you must either connect the P S using the
center pin of the power supply terminal to the same ground plane as your other equipment (when using
E&M type 1 or E&M type 5) or you must connect pin 5 of the RJ45 (SG or EB lead) to the ground plane of
your equipment (When using E&M type 2-4).
