2001 ASL Intercom, Utrecht, Holland.
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PS 155 is a simplex wireless interface
housed in a strong steel case.
Located on the front panel are the Volume
controls (send and receive), sidetone
adjustment trimmers, test tone switch, VOX
adjustment trimmers and TX mode control
switch.
The ASL PS 155 is designed to be a single
channel audio interface between simplex
wireless intercom systems and ASL
partyline intercom systems.
Special attention has been paid to the ease
of operation by the user, enabling to
expand a wired intercom system with a
(locally approved) wireless intercom
section.
By using wireless intercom systems such
as Porto phones etc. the major issue of
licences and approvals can be avoided with
a dramatic drop in cost as a result.
The PS 155 tabletop unit contains an audio
interface. This section splits the audio from
the wired intercom system to, a separate
volume controlled, audio input that is lead
to the wireless intercom system.
It also combines the audio signal from the
wireless system to the wired system, this
signal is also volume controlled.
Both these in/outputs are transformer
balanced.
The three stage, high rejection, sidetone
circuit can be adjusted to maximum setting
using the built-in test tone generator. This
enables the user an optimum performance
for all transmit modes available.
In receive mode (Rx) the audio from the
wireless system is sent to the wired
intercom system, its volume can be
controlled with the ‘Receive’ volume knob.
In transmit mode (Tx) the audio signal from
the wired intercom system is sent to the
wireless system, its volume can be
controlled with the ‘Send’ volume knob.
Three modes are available to switch from
receive to send, the users selects the most
appropriate one with a switch at the front
panel. These modes are:
1. Push To Talk (PTT)
Transmit mode can be enabled by a
switch that can be connected to the PS
155 externally. To enable the transmit
mode, the user pushes a dedicated
button to transmit the audio present at
the wired intercom system.
2. CALL
Transmit mode can be enabled by
pushing any CALL button at the
connected intercom units. All audio
present at the wired intercom will be
broadcast on the wireless system. The
buzzers of all connected stations are
automatically disabled in this mode.
3. VOX
Transmit mode will be enabled by an
audio detection circuit on the wired
intercom. The VOX circuit has a special
frequency contouring circuit which is
optimised for the human voice, the
attack level and release time can be
adjusted at the front panel.
