Master Station
BS 216 2-channel Master Station
The BS 216 is designed to function as the master
unit in an ASL Analog Intercom system. It is suit-
able for use in both portable and xed installa-
tions. The BS 216 incorporates its own built-in
switch-mode universal power supply, and ope-
rates as a dual channel power supply for driving
connected beltpacks.
Product features in brief:
■
Separate TALK and CALL buttons with LED indi-
cators for each channel
■
Volume control (LISTEN level) for each channel
■
Power Supply capable of driving fteen BS 15
Beltpacks to full volume
■
AUX input volume control separately adjustable
for each channel
■
30 V DC phantom power at Aux input when ‘mic
level’ is selected
Beltpack
BS 15 1-channel Beltpack
The BS 15 is a 1-channel intercom station housed
in a strong, lightweight ABS case. It is powered via
the intercom line by a BS 216 Master Station or a
BS 181 / BS 286 Power Supply.
Power Supplies
BS 181 1-channel Power Supply
The BS-181 is a 1-channel Power Supply housed
in a steel case. It has the capacity to power up to
fteen BS 15 Beltpacks to full volume. The BS 181
enables cost-eective system powering when only
one channel is needed.
BS 286 2-channel Power Supply
The BS 286 is a 2-channel, switch-mode Power
Supply with an AUX input for program signals. It is
housed in a 1U steel rack-mount case. The BS 286
will safely drive fteen BS 15 Beltpacks when each
is set to full volume. Separate volume controls for
the AUX input allow aux program levels for each
channel to be adjusted independently.

Features in Detail
Headphone Ampliers – High-quality, push-
pull headphone ampliers contribute to a system
frequency response of 200 Hz to 15 kHz and a
dynamic range of 80 dB. Output is 500 mW @ 200
ohms. A proprietary frequency contouring circuit
optimizes voice range reproduction to ensure
exceptionally high intelligibility even in high ambi-
ent noise environments.
Headset Connections – Both the Master Station
and beltpack accept either dynamic or electret
microphones as standard. Mic gain is adjustable
internally for optimum results with any micro-
phone. A headset detection circuit ensures the mic
pre-amp is active only when a headset is connec-
ted. A volume control enables the user to listen at
any desired volume, and to balance levels on the
two channels of the BS 216 Master Station.
Side Tone – Each user station includes a side tone
trimmer for each channel to allow adjustment of
the operator’s voice level as heard through his or
her own headset or loudspeaker.
Switch-mode Power Supplies – In case of short
circuits, faulty wiring or excessive thermal con-
ditions, the Power Supply will self-protect by
reducing power output, eventually shutting down
under prolonged extreme stress. Once the fault is
corrected, the power supply automatically resets
and restores normal operation.
TALK Function – TALK button with green LED in-
dicator connects to all user stations and beltpacks
on the indicated channel.
CALL Function – The combined audible and
visual CALL alert adapts to both sound- and light-
sensitive environments. An incoming or outgoing
call signal is indicated by a large red LED. Pushing
the CALL button for more than two seconds acti-
vates the internal BUZZER. Volume of the BUZZER
can be trimmed or muted.
AUX INPUT – The 2-channel Master Station
(BS 216) and Power Supply (BS 286) each oer a
balanced auxiliary input (individually attenuated)
normally used to carry the auditorium or on-air
program audio. Inputs may be switched between
line level and microphone level with 30 V DC
phantom powering.
The Basic Series provides a cost-eective solution in more limited applications that require full duplex,
party line communication. All interconnections are made with standard, balanced microphone cable
with XLR-3 connectors. Installation requires no expert knowledge, and clear layout of controls assures
trouble-free operation with a very short learning curve. A current-driven interconnect loop ensures that
operator listening levels do not change as stations are added to or removed from the network.
