Wiring

The Intrasonic Technology Retro system is designed to work on the existing wiring. If the existing

wiring contains 3, 4, 6 or more wires, you will need to select 3 of the wires for each room, patio

and door station. Runs need to be 350 feet each or less. If the existing system is still operating, it

is a good idea to test the system and all stations to make sure the existing wires are not

damaged.

Maximum Number of Stations

The system will handle the following number of stations;

11 room stations

2 patio stations (can be used for room stations)

2 door stations

1 auxiliary input unit

8 Ohm Speakers

The Intrasonic Technology Retro system is an 8 ohm based system. External speakers need to

high efficiency speakers. Speakers rated at less than 8 ohms could degrade performance or even

damage the system.

Tools Needed

9Tape measure

9Wire stripper and cutter

9Hammer

9Drill

9Screw drivers

9Tin Snips

9Volt/ohm meter

9Pry bar

Getting Started

First determine the make and model of the system you are replacing. This includes room, patio

and door stations. Also if there are any ceiling speakers, what size they are and if they are 8 ohms

impedance. The Intrasonic Technology Retrofit system requires the use of 8 ohm speakers. This

will allow you to acquire the correct replacement components and adapter plates.

Make sure the power is off to the existing system.

Taking out the existing system can be a messy process. Bring some “drop cloths” to put under the

units to be removed.

Perform a test on the existing system operation to make sure the wiring is complete and

undamaged.

Removing the Old Master

If the existing system is still operational, run a test by playing the radio and testing the

intercom functions to each room, patio and door station. If one or more of the stations do

not function, this could be a sign that there is faulty wiring.

If one of the stations does not function properly, try swapping the defect station with a

working station. If the defective station works in the new location, and the working station

now does not work in it’s new location, this is a sign that there is trouble with the wiring. If

the defective station does not work in the new location, this probably means the station is

defective.

Make sure the power to the existing system is turned off.

Remove the master unit from it’s housing.

If you encountered wiring issues in the operational test above, this would be a good time

to perform and continuity and short test on the existing wiring.

Check to see if the existing wires are marked. There should be wires for each room, patio

and door station, antenna (both AM & FM) and power. If these are not already marked,

place a tag on each wire show what station it goes to or what it is used for. If you are not

sure of the use, the printed circuit board where the wire is connected is normally marked

with connection details.

Once all the wires are marked, you can disconnect all the wires and remove the master

unit from its housing.

With the master removed, the housing should look something like this with all the wires

disconnected and marked.

The Intrasonic Technology Retrofit system is designed to work with most existing

housings. To determine if you can use the existing wall housing measure the inside height

and width of the existing housing. If it measures between 14 1/8 inches to 14 3/8 inches

in width and at least 5 ¾ inches high, you should be able to use the existing housing.

If you find that you can not use the existing housing, you will need to remove the old

housing and install an Intrasonic Technology I1000H Rough-In kit.

Some old systems have the power coming in to a box that hangs from the bottom of the

wall housing that contains one or two transformers. The Intrasonic Technology Retrofit

system does not use transformers. You will need to carefully remove these transformers,

bring the Romex up into the housing for connection to the Intrasonic Technology master.

Note: Do not remove the old transformer housing and if there was a cover you will need to

save it. The cover should be replaced once the Romex is wired to the Intrasonic

Technology wires.

If you are using the original housing, you will need to install the Intrasonic Technology

mounting straps. These come with Retrofit RETRO-M master. Be sure to install them with

the flat side facing the chassis. As closely as possible mount them with the mounting screw

hole centered between the top and bottom. If there are holes available you can use them

to screw the mounting straps to the chassis. But be careful not to mount them too far

towards the back. The mounting strap needs to be no more then 1/2” from the front end

of the chassis. If there are no holes, drill holes to mount the mounting strap.

mounting the left side strap, make sure the left and right straps are level. This will insure that the

master is level when installed.

Wiring in the Master Station

Determine how many room, patio and door stations you will be installing. Remove the

appropriate number of green connectors from the rear of the master printed circuit board

Strip the existing wires ¼ inch for all the stations.

For each station there are connections marked “+15V”, “GND” & “LINK”. Select a wiring

pattern or color code system to use throughout the entire system. In other words, let’s say

you have selected red, black and white wires. Now setup a color code that you wire all red

wires to the +15V, all black wires to the GND and all the white wires to the LINK. The one

important thing to remember the same wire color scheme must be used on the end of the

wires in the master housing and on the other end at the individual room, patio and door

stations.

Leave the station wires with the connectors attached hanging in the master housing, while

you proceed to connect the rest of the wires.

connectors on the back of the

master printed circuit board.

connectors attached to the

Wiring in the Master Station

Prior to starting the wiring, align the plastic adapter frame to the existing rough-in box.

TIP: Hold in place by placing masking tape on the corners.

To wire the power you will need a licensed Electrician. The existing Romex will need to be

wired to the power leads on the Retrofit master, the connections placed in the old power

or transformer box and the cover replaced. DO NOT TURN ON POWER.

Proceed to wire the AM and FM antennas to the rear of the master.

Now you can plug in the removable connectors you wired to the existing wires for the

room, patio and door stations. The receptacles on the master printed circuit board are

marked for “room” “door” and “Patio”. Plug in the existing wires into the appropriate

receptacle.

AUX Input

If you are installing the optional auxiliary input wall plate, you need to plug the wires

from the AUX wall plate into the two (red & white) phono jacks on the back of the

master printed circuit board.

Door Release Connection

If you are connecting to an electronic door release mechanism, connectors CN5 and CN6

provide both “Normally Open” and Normally Closed” contacts for this function. The most

common use is the normally open contacts that would close and allow power from the

bell transformer to activate the release mechanism. Make the appropriate connections at

CN5 for door 1 and CN6 for door 2.

Installing the Master in the Wall Housing

Before installing the master, check that all wires are connected, there are no wires touching

or close to each other that could cause shorts, there are no strands loose that could cause

shorts and any unused existing wires are safely covered and moved out of the way.

Place the Intrasonic Technology master over the rough-in box and align the two mounting

holes over the holds in the rough-in housing. Insert one of the 2 inch mounting screws

provided and proceed to tighten for 2 to 5 turns. Once started insert the second mounting

screw and proceed to tighten. Tighten both mounting screws firmly but do not over tighten.

Finish the master assembly by attaching the outer face plate and tightening the 3 screws

on the bottom of the face plate.

Important Note:

On the back of the master, the green station connectors are numbered from 1 to 13. Connectors 1

through 9 are for room stations only. Connectors 10, 11, 12 and 13 can be used for either a room

station or a patio station. But for proper operation when using these 4 ports, you must select

either room or patio on switch SW1-4 located on the back of the main printed circuit board.
