Three Primary Functions

The BG-10C provides three major functions to a compatible LEF intercom system:

All Call

Allows authorized LEF master stations to broadcast an announcement to other compatible stations throughout the system.

Door Chime

When a connected door station calls, the BG-10C distributes a chime tone to selected interior stations.

Background Music

An external audio source can be connected to the BG-10C and distributed through compatible LEF station speakers.

All Call Compatible Stations

The following compatible master stations can transmit an All Call announcement through the BG-10C:

• LEF-1C

• LEF-3C

• LEF-5C

• LEF-10C

• LEF-10S

Compatible LEF master stations throughout the system can receive the All Call announcement.

Background Music Distribution

The BG-10C provides stereo auxiliary connections for an external background-music source.

BGM Inputs

• AUX R / E

• AUX L / E

Music can be selectively distributed to compatible LEF station speakers.

When the intercom system is being used for communication, background music is automatically muted as required by the system.

Music Controls

The BG-10C provides adjustment for:

• Music ON/OFF

• Music volume

• Bass

• Treble

• Station music selection

This allows the installer or facility operator to tailor background-music operation to the application.

Door Chime Distribution

When a compatible Aiphone door station calls into the LEF system, the BG-10C can distribute an electronic chime to selected interior stations.

Individual station selectors allow chime distribution to be configured according to system requirements.

Compatible door stations can include:

• LE-D

• LE-DA

• Other compatible LE Series door stations

All Call Controls

The BG-10C provides separate adjustment for:

• All Call Pre-Tone Volume

• All Call Speech Volume

The pre-tone alerts users that a building-wide or system-wide announcement is about to begin.

Required Power Supply

When a BG-10C is installed in an LEF Series system, Aiphone specifies the:

PS-1225UL – 12VDC, 2.5A Power Supply

The smaller PS-1208UL is normally used for LEF systems without the BG-10C.

Important

For an LEF system using the BG-10C:

Use PS-1225UL

Always calculate the complete system requirements according to the applicable Aiphone wiring diagram.

BG-10C to LEF-10C

Aiphone specifies up to:

19 conductors maximum

Recommended cable:

Aiphone #822220 Series

BG-10C to LE-D / LE-DA
