Product Overview TheSecuriComSpeechTransferSystemisatwo-wayintercomspecificallydesignedtoaid
communications where normal speech is impaired by the use of glass security screens or
other similar barriers.
Every system is controlled and powered individually and operates on a stand-alone basis.
Each system comprises a twin-channel audio amplifier, power supply unit, a microphone
and speaker for the staff and a microphone and speaker for the customer. The microphone
and speaker modules are supplied in various formats to enable the system to be installed
in differing locations.
The system operates on an “Open Duplex” basis, i.e. microphones and speakers are live
simultaneously, similar to a telephone, with no manual or automatic switching of the voice.
This means that clipping of speech is not encountered whilst still allowing users to
operate the system “Hands-Free”. Sophisticated electronic circuitry in the amplifier and
purpose designed speaker and microphone modules ensure that the risk of acoustic
coupling or “Feedback” is kept to a minimum.
Securicom also offers an induction loop facility which is built into the system for users of
hearing aids.
SecuriCom is offered either in a system kit format, or as individual modules, thus allowing
maximum flexibility to “tailor” systems to individual requirements.

1. STS A20 audio amplifier (or A30 version for loop facility)
2. STS-P41/P42 12V DC power supply (or P43 PSU for loop facility)
3. STS-F70 Staff Unit comprising close speaking microphone and loud speaker
4. A microphone for the Customer
5. A loudspeaker for the Customer
6. Induction Loop Aerial (optional)
N.B. Microphones and Loudspeakers are available in flush or surface mounting formats.
The STS-F70 Staff Unit for the staff side is supplied as standard. An alternative option comprising
separate microphones and loudspeakers is also available.
A Customer Audio Bridge with twin surface mounted loudspeakers and a centrally fitted close
speaking microphone is available for the Customer’s side.
Each SecuriCom system requires one Audio Amplifier (STS-A20 or STS-A30) with its associated Power
Supply (STS-P41/42 or STS-P43). The Amplifier connects on a plug and socket basis to other system
components via individual cables.
TheAmplifier shouldbe mountedon aflat surfacewithin closeproximity tothe othersystem com-
ponents and conveniently to hand for the operator. For example, on the staff side under the desk-top
or counter-top would be suitable. Ensure there is also access to the Microphone and Induction Loop
gain controls located on the side of the amplifier and also to the rear connection sockets before fix-
ing. Twin flanges each with two screw holes are formed at the top of the amplifier housing.These are
used to fix the amplifier under the counter top with small self tapping screws.. The Amplifier housing
need not be opened as all connections are external.
Customer Microphones and Loud Speakers may be flush or surface mounted depending on individual
requirements.Seefollowing pagesforfitting instructions.Surfacemountedcomponents arebestsited
atthejunction betweenthe counter-topandthe glasspartition.Forbestperformance, theMicrophone
should be mounted at least 30 centimetres away from the Loudspeaker. Each component comes with
a 3 metre lead and two-way plug. It is advisable to remove the plug before fixing as this enables a
neater installation to be achieved using smaller diameter holes through which to feed the cables.
However, the cables and plugs must be re-connected correctly or the system will not operate. If in
doubt, identify and mark the wires before disconnecting the plug(s).

The STS-F70 Staff Unit is a self standing module for the Staff Side. It should be placed conveniently on
the counter top so the cashier can hear the loudspeaker and talk into the gooseneck microphone to
the customer. The microphone is of the close talking type so background noise is not picked up. A
‘Mute’ switch is located on the front of the Staff Unit. In the absence of a cable port, a suitably sized
hole should be drilled into the counter top at the rear of the Staff Unit to take the reinforced cable.
Disconnect the 2 two-way plugs before introducing the cables for a neater installation. Ensure these
are re-connected correctly or the system will not operate.

Each component (Microphone, Loudspeaker, Staff Unit or Induction Loop) comes fitted with two-way
connection plug(s) which locate into the appropriate socket(s) at the rear of the Amplifier. The plugs
connect to the cables by screw terminal connections so cables can be removed and fed through small,
neatapertures foranunobtrusive, discreteinstallation. However, thecablesand plugsmust bere-con-
nected correctly or the system will not operate. If in
doubt,mark the wiresbefore disconnectingthe plug(s). If
there is a suitable cable port on the cashiers side, the
Staff Unit cables can be diverted through this without the
need to remove and re-connect the 2 two-way plugs.
Controls are provided on the front of the Amplifier. The
latching push switch marked ‘power’ switches the unit
on or off, a red LED indicates when the unit is on. Two
rotary volume controls marked ‘customer’ and ‘staff’
adjust output from the loudspeakers. The volume of the
system may be adjusted by turning the rotary volume
controls clockwise (to increase the level of sound) or
anticlockwise (to decrease the level of sound).
