WIDE AREA MODULE (WAM)
19-5
19.4.1 ONE LOCATION
When only one WAM is used no E&M Lead
external connections are necessary.
19.4.2 TWO LOCATIONS
Cross-connecting between the Switches/Links
requires the use of the additional WAM M-Lead output
(see Figure 19-4).
19.4.3 THREE LOCATIONS
A WAC that consists of three or more Locations
with Switches/WAMs at each requires the use of the
M-Lead Splitter Box (see Section 19-5). The Splitter
Box splits one M-Lead input into six M-Lead outputs.
Seven boxes would allow a total of seven Locations
with Switches/WAMs at each to participate in a WAC
before needing a second box per Location (see
Figure 19-6).
NOTE: The M-Lead Splitter Boxes are needed only at
the Locations where two or more E&M Links connect
to WAMs. Notice in Figure 19-3 that the M-Lead
Splitter Box is not needed since there is only one E&M
Link interface.
19.5 M-LEAD SPLITTER BOX
19.5.1 GENERAL
The M-Lead Splitter Box Kit (PN 250-3239-300)
is to be used with WAMs that allow Wide Area Calls
(WAC) over links that utilize 4-Wire E&M Lead
circuits. The M-Lead Splitter Box (PN 023-3239-300)
provides up to six M-Lead outputs with one M-Lead
input.
19.5.2 INSTALLATION
The box is powered by +12V on pin 1. The +12V
supply can be obtained from the Switch Bus Bar. The
spades of the cable (PN 023-3239-320) in the kit are
connected to the bus bar (Red to +12V, Black to
ground) and the stripped ends of the cables are
connected to the terminal block of the M-Lead Splitter
Box (Red to pin 1, Black to pin 2), see Figure 19-5.
A maximum of 10 boxes may be powered by one
cable by daisy-chaining the rest of the power inputs.
Refer to System Configuration diagrams or
Figure 19-6 for the usage of the M-Lead I/Os.
