Doc. No. 002 Issue 2 April 1998
If the line is busy
If the apartment phone is in use, a busy tone is heard in the
entrance phone. The call is then disconnected after five
seconds. To avoid waiting, the system can be set so that the
visitor can open the door by repeating the telephone number
just dialled (see page 32).
Access code
Tenants, the postman and other authorised people are also
allowed to enter the premises. In parallel with the entrance
phone function, there is also a code lock function. Up to 99
unique access codes can be assigned for different doors.
If the wrong access code is entered three times in succession,
the code lock converts to sabotage mode and cannot be
used. To set it into operation again the correct entrance code
must be entered twice in succession.
In the apartment
Since the entrance phone is connected to the telephone
network the tenant uses his own telephone both to speak to
visitors and to open the door. When a visitor dials the short
code or the telephone number to the apartment, the telephone
rings as usual. When the person in the apartment lifts the
handset, depending on the Answer Choice set on the
Telecode, either an electronic "tune" will be heard to show
that the call is coming from the door or the tenant will be
connected. If not immediately connected, the tenant presses
5. The tenant can now speak to the visitor for up to 45
seconds.
