The present priority is the installation, as an intercom system, the three telephone switchboards located inside the surveillance room. At present four underground external phone lines feed into the shelter, one of which is activated.
The next priority will be the installation of the 8 camera surveillance monitoring system and after that the transceiver shortwave system.
After event plans for Ark Two include the installation of fibre optic which is not available in the village although the cable runs through our front yard. The thousands of feet of fibre optic cable needed to hook on to it, along with the necessary connectors and tools, have been stored by members of the Ark Two community experienced in connecting to fibre optic.

Trillium TalkTo 1032
There are two separate Trillium TalkTo 1032 switchboards at lower center and lower left. The designation 10/32 means that each unit will handle 10 external lines in and 32 internal lines.
The manner in which these switchboards will be configured is presently undetermined. It may be that the one board will be used as a master and the other two as slaves, or that there will be two separate systems - one a 616 and the other a 1032, with the second 1032 being kept for a back-up.

The 616 Boards
The 616 is a complex of several boards. One board has on it a soldered in 3 volt Sanyo Lithium Mn battery which is presently defunct. Arrangements have been made to have the battery replaced. The battery is necessary to retain the programming in the memory chips when the 110 power is disconnected.
Instructions in the programming manual also state that battery must be on ino order to program the unit.

The 1032 Boards
The 1032 Boards are also a complex of several boards. Again each 1032 has one board which has on it a soldered in 3 volt Sanyo Lithium Mn battery which is presently inoperative. Again, arrangements have been made to have the battery replaced. The battery is necessary to retain the programming in the memory chips when the 110 power is disconnected.
Instructions in the programming manual also state that battery must be on in order to program the unit.

Location of the Battery Boards
The board holding the battery is the one just above the metal covered power supply which is at the bottom. The board is connected by jumpers to the board above and to an ancillary board mounted on top of it - which must be first removed to remove the board with the battery.

Location of the 1032 Battery
The 3 volt Sanyo Lithium Mn battery is located on the left hand side of the Battery Board. It appears as about a one inch aluminum disc and is soldered in with two solder points on the backside of the board.

Removal of the Battery Boards
Removal of the battery boards part of the procedure has been completed for all three units and the boards are awaiting delivery to the shop where the batteries will be replaced.
The manual supplier thinks it is possible that the batteries may be okay
and may just need recharging.

616 Handset
This shows the 616 handset keyboard. We have heard of an overlay for these keys for re-programming the 616 switchboard, but there is a difference of opinion as to the existence of the overlay and so far we have found no mention of it in the systems manual which appears to give programming instructions without use of an overlay.

1032 and 616 Phones side by side
The 1032 and 616 phone sets are different. They are shown here side by side and have different keypad layouts. Each model of phone set will work only on its corresponding switchboard. If there did exist a programming overlay, then each system would need a different overlay, but so far no mention of overlays has been found in the systems manuals.
The 1032 is on the left
and
the 616 is on the right.
We have 12 of each model.
