PreWiring & Installing The Door Stations
The DSF3 and DSS3 Door Stations require two conductors to achieve full functionality. The
DSC3 requires six conductors in order to utilize the camera functionality eight for long runs
(over 500 feet). Cat-5 network cable is recommended in each instance. Route Cat-5 from the
head-end location to each Door Station location, avoiding sharp angles.
To physically mount DSF3 and DSC3 Door Stations, use an ELAN DBK1000 Rough-In Bracket
during construction. The DSS3 Door Station is designed to be surface mounted and utilizes
four wall anchors and screw.
For best aesthetics and audio quality, (and viewing angle when positioning the DSC3), mount
the unit approximately 4-1/2 to 5-1/2 feet from the ground. It is strongly recommended that
you test the view from the camera before finalizing installation!
