GENERAL  DESCRIPTION 

The Minimaster 

is  a  mains  powered microprocessor  controlled switching system of 

1  +  6 

capacity.  The system  comprises a  wall  mounted  Central  Control Unit  (CCU)  with  one  line,  which 

may  be  connected  as  either a  direct exchange  line or  as  an extension  off a  PBX,  and up  to  six 
two wire  telephones.  When  connected  as  a  PBX  extension  only  earth loop recall  may  be  used. 

The  CCU 

(see 

fig. 

2) 

measures  approximately 

300 

mm high, 

200 

mm wide and 

75 

mm 

deep  and  weighs 

2.5 

kg.  The  CCU  contains: 

a. 

the  principal circuit  board which carries  all the  ciruitry  and 
terminal  blocks  for  a  system  with one line and  three  extensions; 

b. 

the expansion  board  which  carries  circuitry  and  terminal  blocks  for  three 

additional extensions; 

c. 

the power  unit which is connected  to  a 

metre long mains cable with  mains 

plug  fused  at 

amps. 

The telephones  which  are star connected to the CCU  may  be any  standard  telephone 

using  loop/disconnect  pulsing.  Difficulty  may  be experienced  in  obtaining  a  satisfactory operation 

of the  tone caller of  "Sceptre"  telephones  and Statesman  telephones  may cause "wrong 

number"  problems  on  "divert",  consequently  these telephones  should  not  be  used  with 

Minimaster systems.  A recall  button  giving  earth  loop  recall may  be required  for  PBX  working. 

B::ittery  powered  Keyphones  e.g.  X-Press  Callmaker,  require  Power Unit  charging  arrangements.
