PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

Is this a COLOR Video installation?

This manual is written expressly for the QwikBus™ 2-wire Color systems that will be

using the Inside monitors listed on the previous page. If you are installing a Black and White

system please refer to the QwikBus™ 4-wire Black & White Manual.

How many apartments?

QwikBus™ can run up to 120 apartments and can exceed that number if specially

designed. If you will be installing a larger system please contact Alpha Communications® for

assistance.

How many apartments will need more than 1 monitor?

An apartment can have up to 5 monitors and or audio stations that will ring when the

entry button is pressed.

Will these multiple monitor apartments need intercommunication?

Intercommunication is only available using the VFS1500/ FS1500 series stations which

allow you to ring 2-4 other stations in the apartment depending on the equipment used.

How many Entrances?

QwikBus™ can have up to 8 Entrance panels. If you will be installing a larger number of

entrances please contact Alpha Communications® for design assistance.

Modular Panel?

STR modular panels are available in White, Titanium, and Dark Brown and are usually

used in small installations from a 1 button residential application up to multi-apartment

configurations and feature beautiful contemporary looks, illuminated buttons, and outside

weather resistance.

Stainless Steel or Brass Panel?

Alpha Communications can custom design and build flush and surface mount entry

panels in Stainless Steel or Polished Brass with all necessary apartment button numbering

and address engraving.

How many observation cameras will be in the system?

Additional Cameras can be added in addition to the Entrance Cameras for a total of 8,

enabling the apartment monitors to view the various feeds on demand.

What type of Inside stations will you use?

Although all the compatible stations connect the same way, each model does have

certain capabilities and advantages depending on the needs of the tenant and can be

exchanged for another unit at anytime if necessary by simply installing the 2 wires and

reprogramming the system to recognize the unit.

Are you running new wire or using existing wire from a previous system?

Although digital systems are fairly forgiving in wiring requirements, they are still

susceptible to RFI from unusually strong nearby transmitters, EMI from electrical lines

running nearby, or existing wiring that is not twisted, in poor condition, or not a suitable

gauge. Please refer to the wiring thickness chart below to determine the minimum

recommended wire gauge needed. If the existing wiring is more than 12 years old, has

deteriorating insulation, questionable splice connections, corrosion, or is not configured as

twisted pair wiring, it is highly recommended that new wire be run.

To reduce the risk of interference problems:

Always use a single twisted pair wire for the two wire BUS line.

Do NOT double wires to increase effective wire diameter. This will cause interference

problems.

Do NOT install any unused additional wires with open ends.

Never connect the shield from a cable, or connect the shield from one cable to

another.

Use a separate cable to the door strike from the SP333.

Only use a 12VAC door strike or 12VAC relay with less than 1 amp draw.

If it is absolutely necessary to run the door strike wiring in the same cable as the BUS

line, you must use a transient voltage suppressor at the door strike end.

Loop resistance should be less than 20 ohms.

Twisted pair is always recommended.

Cat5, Cat5E, Cat6, and the new Cat7 spec. wire is NOT recommended.

How many risers will you be using?

The recommended maximum number of monitors on a riser is 10 with each riser originating

from the VSP333-2 Control Unit, including from the EVB333 Amplified Splitter(s) if your

system requires them.

System Notes – 2 wire COLOR with Single Modular Entry

A Single Entry Modular system requires the following dipswitch settings on the back of the

TSMB3 unit:

Switches 4, 5, & 6 identify the entrance number (all OFF = Entrance 1)

Switch 3 If the door strike is to be connected to the SP333 (Tö1) = OFF

If the door strike is to be connected to the TSMB3 (Tö) = ON

For more information refer to Page 10 - Dipswitch Settings.

Be sure that the End of Line Jumpers are used on the camera circuit board and in the last

monitor on each riser. If the last unit on a riser is an audio only unit, the End of Line Jumper

would still be used on the last monitor on that riser. This is important for best picture quality.

For more information refer to Page 12 - End of Line Jumper Locations.

When connecting C333-2 harness between SP333 and SNT333, ALWAYS observe 24VDC Polarity.

System Notes – 2 wire COLOR with Multiple Modular Entries

Multiple Entry Modular systems require the following dipswitch settings on the back of the

TSMB3 unit:

Switches 4,5, &6 identify the entrance number. In the above example:

Entrance #1 = 4 OFF/ 5 OFF/ 6 OFF Entrance #2 = 4 ON / 5 OFF/ 6 OFF

Switch 3 If the door strike is connected to the SP333 (Tö2) = OFF (as shown at Entrance 2)

If the door strike is connected to the TSMB3 (Tö) = ON (as shown at Entrance 1)

For more information refer to Page 10 - Dipswitch Settings.

Be sure that the End of Line Jumpers are used on the camera circuit board and in the last

monitor on each riser. If the last unit on a riser is an audio only unit, the End of Line Jumper

would still be used on the last monitor on that riser. This is important for best picture quality.

For more information refer to Page 12 - End of Line Jumper Locations.

When connecting C333-2 harness between SP333 and SNT333, ALWAYS observe 24VDC Polarity.

System Notes – 2 wire COLOR with Single Custom Panel Entry

The TT33 SPEAKER/MICROPHONE/ CONTROLLER allows you to use QwikBus™ with a

custom panel or existing dry contact type entry panel by converting the button presses to a

digital signal through an electronic matrix. This matrix is discussed in detail on Page 13.

A Single Panel Entry system requires the following dipswitch settings on the TT33 unit:

Switches 4, 5, & 6 identify the entrance number (all OFF = Entrance 1)

Switch 3 If the door strike is to be connected to the SP333 (Tö1) = OFF

If the door strike is to be connected to the TT33 (Tö) = ON

For more information refer to Page 10 - Dipswitch Settings.

Be sure that the End of Line Jumpers are used on the camera circuit board and in the last

monitor on each riser. If the last unit on a riser is an audio only unit, the End of Line Jumper

would still be used on the last monitor on that riser. This is important for best picture quality.

For more information refer to Page 12 - End of Line Jumper Locations.

NOTE: When using a Coaxial cable into a KBS3-2, ALWAYS connect a 75Ω( for RG-59) or

50 Ω(for RG-6) End-of-Line resistor between the coax center lead terminal and the (-)

terminal on the KBS3-2. Failure to do this may cause degradation of the video signal.

System Notes – 2 wire COLOR: Important Information on Monitor Riser Connections

This section discusses the proper procedure for connecting monitors on a riser.

Although a digital system is very forgiving, it is best to follow these rules during installation to

maximize performance and minimize potential problems.

Using existing wiring:

When using existing wiring there are many things that can cause problems. The first is

of course, wiring condition and gauge. Solid or stranded does not matter but a minimum of

18 gauge twisted shielded wire with the shield NOT connected together is strongly

recommended. Using any lighter gauge may result in loss of performance and/or

introduction of interference from outside power sources.

Many installers run the cable the easiest way and this, unfortunately, is usually by

running the wire in a conduit or small enclosure right along side AC power lines, near

fluorescent ballasts, or machinery. It is therefore suggested that you run your own wiring

for this job in the recommended way, and avoid wiring with unknown potential issues. If

this is not possible, it is best to advise the customer that the system may not work up to its

full potential especially with regard to video display.

Proper BUS Connections to the Monitors:

Although the polarity of the BUS connections on a monitor on a line is not important, it

is good form to reverse the connections from monitor to monitor on a BUS line to prevent

the propagation of signal distortion by putting them “out of phase” with each other. On the

picture below, note how the monitors are “reverse connected” as they go up a riser.
