If the terminal at the gate is used to call residents when using the gate call settings, residents can use their main
monitors to check images from the gate and confirm who is visiting.
Gate call settings
There are 2 methods for configuring gate call settings.
– Using a computer to configure the system (5.2 PC programming (Page 46)).
– Using individual PBX terminals to configure settings (5.4 Telephone programming (Page 62)).
In addition, DIP switch configuration is required for extension boxes that will perform gate calls.
