of the product during the term of this warranty. This NO FAULT warranty covers only the liability described

PRINTER’S INSTRUCTIONS:

INSTR,INSTL,ROUGH-IN,MC111 - LINEAR P/N: 115741 C - INK: BLACK - MATERIAL: 20 LB. MEAD BOND - SIZE: FLAT: 17.000” X 11.000”, FOLDED 8.500” X 11.000” - SCALE: 1-1 - FOLDING: 1-FOLD VERTICAL - SIDE 1 OF 2

USE ONLY M&S SYSTEMS BRAND CABLE as called out in

these instructions. The cable is designed and constructed with electrical
specifications necessary for proper audio performance. Important:
The use of non M&S SYSTEMS brand cable will void the
product warranty!
Note: All M&S SYSTEMS cable has M&S SYSTEMS
and the part number printed on it!

USE or MS4XSC cable for room stations, remote controls and

volume controls.

DO NOT EXCEED 200 FEET of cable for any one run or 700 FEET

for the entire system. The maximum number of stations including the
master is 10.

USE or MS4DCXSC for door stations. The maximum number of

door stations is two.

RUN A SINGLE CABLE from the master unit location to each room

station or control (Home Run). DO NOT LOOP CABLE from one
station to another. Looping will cause electronic feedback.

DO NOT STAPLE CABLES! Staples cause shorts.

DO NOT SPLICE CABLES. Splices are unreliable and defeat the

signal isolation properties of the cable

KEEP

CABLES

AT

LEAST

18

INCHES

FROM

FLUORESCENT LIGHT FIXTURES, DIMMER CONTROLS,
AND ALL OTHER WIRING.
This includes AC wiring, security cable,
and other control wires. These can cause a “hum” or “buzzing” sound in
the intercom.

Keep cables away from objects such as heating and air conditioning ducts,

metal construction plates, and anything else with sharp edges that can
damage the cables.

Outside cable runs should be underground through PVC conduit (one

cable per conduit unless shielded cable MS4XSC or MS4DCXSC is used).
This cable is not weatherproof, therefore, it must be protected. PVC
must be sealed on each end to prevent condensation in the pipe.

If extra cables are run for possible future speaker additions, care must be

taken that these cables do not get connected to the master unit.
Unterminated cables (no station) connected to the master unit will cause
electronic feedback that will damage the master unit.
