Connecting the unit
Consult the manual of your master unit before connecting the
microphone. Use a standard CAT5 cable to connect the microphone
to the main unit. Normally, the main unit will also provide the
necessary power to the microphone. Consult the manual of your
main unit for more details.
DIMIC12S, the slave unit, cannot be used without the DIMIC12
digital paging station. The purpose of the slave unit is to expand the
number of zones and/or programmable function keys on the paging
station. The slave unit is connected to the paging station using the
flat cable supplied with the slave unit. It is possible to daisy chain up
to 7 slave units.
The opening for the flat cable is at the right side of the DIMIC12
unit. Just pop off the small lid and connect the flat cable. Connect
the other end to the left side of the slave unit and so on…

Knobs 13 and 14 are the actual paging buttons: when pushing
knob 13, all pageable zones will be paged. When pushing knob 14,
all selected and pageable zones will be paged. The corresponding
selection LEDs will light up to confirm the selection.
The ready-busy LED is green when the unit is ready and when
paging is allowed. It turns orange when a paging request is sent
to the master unit and turns red when paging is forbidden due
to priority restrictions. During the time the chime is sounding, the
ready-busy LED will stay orange. When the chime has finished
playing, the LED will turn green to indicate that paging is possible.
The amber selection LEDs of the selected zones will flash during
paging.
