Wire an Intercom to a Blue Light Tower

Wire your TS12-N-RB, TS12-N-R2B, TD52 or TD53 Intercoms into a blue light emergency phone tower

The TS12-N-RB, TS12-N-R2B, TD52, and TD53 can be used as an emergency phone on blue light poles or wall-mounted emergency stations. These poles and wall mounts generally include strobe lights, which should activate during a call.


Installation

This guide includes wiring instructions for a GC31-E cellular gateway and a context camera. In this setup, the GC31-E bridges the LAN, intercom, and context camera. If the LAN fails, the gateway automatically switches to LTE, ensuring continued operation.

TD53

Deployment with GC31-E

1

Wire the control leads for the blue light strobe into Output 2 (on the back of the intercom).

2

Wire Ethernet from the intercom Ethernet port to one of the two GC31-E LAN ports.

3

Wire Ethernet from the camera into the unused GC31-E LAN ports.

4

Wire the WAN port of the GC31-E into the network.

Deployment without GC31-E

1

Wire the control leads for the blue light strobe into Output 2 (on the back of the intercom).
