1. INTRODUCTION
Telecode entrance phones
connected to the network
Telecode 5000 is a system of entrance phones connected to
the telephone network. The advantage with this type of
system is that the door can be opened from a normal
telephone all approved models using tone dialling can be
used. Up to six entrance phones can be connected (one at
each door). The central unit comes in different sizes with the
capacity of 16 doors. The units also have different storage
capacities for programming telephone numbers.
In addition to the door phone function, Telecode 5000 works
as a code lock, which means that people living in the building
can gain access by entering a code number.
Telecode 5000 can also be used in businesses where visitors
are received after office hours. This is described in the
Telecode
in companies
chapter later in this manual.
Telecode in apartment buildings
If Telecode 5000 is installed in an apartment building, the
system works as follows:
At the door
Whenever a visitor wants to enter the door, they first use the
entrance phone outside the door to speak to the tenant. To do
this, the visitor should press B, followed by either the short
code published on the name board next to the entrance phone,
or the tenants phone number. The buttons of the entrance
phone are described on page 9.
The system also has "ultra-short" codes which apply to the
first 10 stored numbers only. This means that instead of
B0001, the caller can key A1; instead of B0002 use A2 and so
on up to A9 instead of B0009.
