PanDoor Installation and Programming Manual
1.3 Operating
Methods
There are three methods of opening the door using the PanDoor
panel:
•
Opening the door from the outside
. To open the door from
the outside, you must dial a pre-defined code on the outdoor
unit keypad. When the code is entered correctly, the keypad
light flashes, and the door opens. When the code is entered
incorrectly, the keypad light flashes quickly and the code is
rejected.
•
Opening the door in response to a call from the outside
.
When a visitor places a call by pressing the
CALL
button on
the outdoor unit, a distinctive ring sounds on the residential
telephone. While the telephone is ringing, the visitor hears On
Hold music through the speaker. To answer the call, you must
pick up the receiver as done in a regular phone call. After the
conversation with the caller is complete, you can either dial a
pre-defined code to open the door, or hang up to terminate the
call.
•
Opening the door in response to a call from the outside
while engaged in conversation.
When engaged in a
conversation and a visitor places a call by pressing the
CALL
button on the outdoor unit, a distinctive Call Waiting tone
sounds in the receiver. To answer the call, you must press the
PSTN/Panel switch key (default – 0). After the conversation
with the caller is complete, you can either dial a pre-defined
code to open the door and press the PSTN/Panel switch key
again to return to the original call, or press the PSTN/Panel
switch key directly to terminate the conversation and return to
the original call.
•
Defining a ring type to distinguish between PSTN and
Door Panel call.
The user can program the ring cycle and
silence interval for the ring that will sound when the incoming
call is from the door panel. To program this ring type, use
DTMF commands *362, *363 and *364. The ring cycle is
illustrated in Figure 3.
