Partyline: How do I setup a pair of EF-701M interfaces for fiber modems?

Apr 06, 2019

Question:  I want to connect separate Encore party-line systems together via fiber modems.  How do I setup the EF-701M interfaces to accomplish this?
Answer:  The two switches on the rear panel of the EF-701M work independently of each other.  Switch 1 adjusts the EF-701M’s connector settings for use with either 4-wire fiber (the OFF position) or a matrix intercom (the ON position).
Switch 2 adjusts the EF-701M’s connector intercom levels for use with either Clear-Com equipment (the OFF position) or RTS-TW equipment (the ON position). Table 1-1 summarizes the mode switch settings (see table 1-1 below). 
Note:  Use the DB-15 connector pin outs for the connection to the fiber modem.

If you want to connect Encore PL systems together then set both EF-701M units to have switch #1 OFFswitch #2 OFF
Note:  Both EF-701M units will need to powered by the Partyline system they are connected to
