Modification

LED monitoring indicator on an LE series sub station. This modification allows users to know that their station is being monitored by a master station.  

Difficulty Level

5 - Hard - circuit creation and internal addition.  

Components Required

  1. Resistor: 1K Ω, 0.25 W
  2. LED: general purpose

Instructions

  1. Run two extra wires to each sub station requiring the modification. (Only one extra wire is required when using LE-C, LE-CN, or LE-DL.)
  2. Install LED and resistor as shown on diagram.
  3. When a master station selects that sub station, the LED will illuminate.
  4. No physical provisions are made on the sub station for the addition of an LED. Chassis modification or external mounting is required.
Diagram
Notes:
  • Inside the sub station, install the general-purpose LED and 1K Ω resistor as shown above.
  • Since there is no designated location for placement of the LED, either modify the chassis of the sub station or mount the LED externally.
  • The LE-C, LE-CN and LE-DL already have the "+" wire connected to them. Only the "K" wire will need to be added with those models.

All Call to Standard LE Series Sub Stations

Modification

Single call sub station to receive All Call and Background Music (BGM).

 

Difficulty Level

1 – Easy – wire connection only.

 

Components Required

  1. Capacitor: Aiphone model NP-25V
    (33 µfd, 25V, non-polarized).

Instructions

  1. Install capacitor in series between the number terminal of the master station and the BGR-10A/BG-10C as shown on the diagram.
  2. All Call and/or BGM require either the BGR-10A (with PS-2410A) or the BG-10C (with PS-12F) to be installed in the system.
  3. Aiphone master stations with All Call activation capability are:
    • LEF-3C
    • LEF-5C
    • LEF-10C
    • LEF-10S
    • LEF-1C
  4. LE-C/CN sub stations do not require the capacitor.

 

Operation

This system allows communication from the LEF-10C master stations to all other stations in the system. The sub stations can call the master stations by tone and communicate hands-free. All stations can receive music and All Call announcements. Only the LEF-10C’s can initiate All Call announcements and answer the door station.

 

Capacitor: Aiphone NP-25V (33mfd, 25V, non-polarized). For easy installation, connect one leg of the capacitor to a numbered terminal on the LEF-10C and the other leg to a wire going to the same number terminal on BG-10C.
