Louroe Electronics AP-112TB Bedienungsanleitung

INTRODUCTION

The AP-12TB and AP-16TB are twelve and sixteen zone audio monitoring base stations. As a system utilizing Louroe

speaker/microphones, the units provide an audio monitoring system with two-way talk/listen between the AP-12TB/AP-16TB

and the remote speaker/microphone.

Features for the AP-12TB and AP-16TB include:

"Built in 3” speaker for listening and a built-in microphone for talkback

"Individual RCA outputs for recording into a DVR with multiple audio inputs

"A single selectable RCA output for recording into a VCR or a DVR with only one audio input

"Single RCA audio input for audio playback from a DVR or VCR.

"Switch closure for each zone for activating a camera, etc. when zone switch button is pressed

"Special filtering for enhancing audio playback from a 24hr. time lapse recorder

"Auxiliary microphone jack on rear panel for optional hand-held microphone (hand-held microphone not included

"24 Vdc, 1A power supply included

For two-way talk/listen, AP-12TB and AP-16TB are compatible with Louroe speaker/microphone Models TLI, TLO, TLSP,

TLSP-CM and TLM Series.

For one-way listen (no talkback) all Louroe Microphone Models A, B, C, D, D-V, E, K and L-DT are compatible.

NOTE REGARDING CONNECTION TO DVR’s:

Models AP-12TB and AP-16TB are compatible with most all DVR’s.

If DVR has only one audio input, connect the “Audio Out” jack on

back panel of AP-12TB/AP-16TB to “Audio In” of DVR using an RCA

cable.

If DVR has multiple audio inputs, connect the “Mic Out” jacks on

back panel of AP-12TB/AP-16TB to the audio inputs of DVR using RCA

cables.

If DVR contains 3.5mm audio inputs instead of RCA types, a 3.5mm

stereo adapter must be connected to one end of RCA cable.

WIRING CONNECTIONS

1). Connect one end of cable to remote speaker/microphone as shown in Fig. 3. Use 4 conductor

shielded audio cable such as West Penn 356. Connect wires wrapped with overall shield to

terminals “A”, “B”, and “C” of microphone’s terminal block. When using West Penn 356, connect red

wire to terminal “A”; black wire to terminal “B” and bare wire to terminal”C”.

2). Connect the two speaker wires (white and green) to speaker’s 70 volt transformer terminals.

Connect cable’s white wire to white wire connected to the 70 volt transformer using a wire nut.

Connect cable’s green wire to green wire of transformer with a wire nut.

3). Connect the other end of the cable to AP-12TB or AP-16TB Mic 5-Pin Terminal Block[14] for the

zone which the remote microphone is assigned. Make sure that wire connected to terminal “A” of

remote microphone connects to terminal “A” of unit’s Mic 5-Pin Terminal Block[14]; wire connected

to terminal “B’ of microphone connects to terminal “B” of unit’; “C” to “C”. If using wire from other

manufacturers, color code may vary.

4). Connect white speaker wire to Mic 5-Pin Terminal Block[14] terminal “G”. Connect green wire to

terminal marked “SP”.

5). Repeat steps 1 thru 3 for zones 2, 3, 4 .....16.

6). When a recorder is used (DVR, VCR etc.), connect Audio-OUT Jack[15] to recorder’s Audio-IN

Jack with an RCA cable (not supplied).

7). Connect Audio-IN Jack[17] to recorder’s Audio-Out Jack.

8). Plug AC Adapter (supplied) to DC-IN Jack[20].

NOTE: If AP-12TB or AP-16TB is to be used as a one-way listen only system (no talkback), any Louroe

Verifact Microphone can be used. Make microphone connections as described above (see step 1).

Disregard speaker connections. Use 2 conductor shielded cable, 22 gauge with a 24 gauge drain.

West Penn 452 or equivalent. Same color code as in West Penn 356 (red, black and bare).

OPERATION AND TEST

1). To apply power, first connect small end of 24 Vdc power supply to the 24 Vdc power jack located

on rear panel , then plug power block into a standard 120 Vac wall outlet or power strip.

2). Turn on power to the unit by rotating the Power-Volume Control Knob[9] clockwise to “ON”

position. Filter-OUT Indicator[2] should light green, indicating power is present at the unit. Rotate

Power-Volume Knob[9] further clockwise to increase the level of loudness of monitored audio.

3). Press Zone Selector Switches[1] marked zone 1. Audio from zone 1 should be present at the

Monitor Speaker[13]. If there is no audio, temporarily remove wires connected to Mic 5-Pin

Terminal Block[14] for zone 1 located at the rear of the unit. With a voltmeter, check that 12 Vdc is

present at terminals “A” and “C”. Place positive lead of voltmeter to terminal “A” and negative to

“C”. If voltage is not present, unit has defective voltage regulator. If voltage is present, check to

see if the wires are connected properly to the right terminals. Otherwise microphone is defective.

Call factory for assistance.

4). Press Talkback Switch[8] and speak into the Talkback Microphone[10]. Rotate Talkback Volume

Control[12] clockwise to increase the level of talkback audio. Another person is needed at the

remote location to listen to the volume and clarity of talkback audio.

5). Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the other zones.

6). When a 24 hour VCR is connected to the unit, press VCR Switch[7]. VCR-IN Indicator[4] will light

yellow. Start recording live audio. It is not necessary to use VCR switch if recording into a DVR.

The VCR Switch[7] must be in the “OUT” position when a recorder is not connected to the unit.

Otherwise live audio will be muted.

7). Recorded audio can be played back through the AP-12TB/AP-16TB’s built-in amplifier and

speaker. If audio playback is from a 24 hour time lapse recorder, press Filter Switch[6] to 12/24

hour mode. Filter In indicator[3] will illuminate red. If playback is from a DVR, filter switch is not

used and should be in the “OUT” position. If no recording device is used, then filter switch must be

in the “OUT” position. Otherwise live audio will be muted. The green LED will illuminate when filter

switch is in the “OUT” position.
