Adjustments
Volume Control
The communication volume levels are factory preset for normal operations. The levels can
be increased or decreased by adjusting the potentiometers located along the bottom of the
system controller, behind the front display plate. Audio level from the entry system to the
suite is controlled by the
MICROPHONE
VOLUME
control. Audio level from the suite to the entry
system is controlled by the
SPEAKER
VOLUME
control.
Rotary Phone Pulse Sensitivity
Telephone companies do not specify or guarantee the waveshape of the signal transmitted
when the tenant dials the digit “9” from a rotary (pulse) telephone. In order to achieve best
results, Tek-ENTRY
®
Telephone Entry Systems are furnished with a sensitivity adjustment
potentiometer, as well as an indicator lamp to view the incoming rotary signal (pulses). This
potentiometer is labeled
PULSE
SENSITIVITY
on the system controller. The pulse sensitivity is
factory preset so that a wide range of incoming rotary signals will properly trigger the door
circuit, and so will usually not require adjustment. If adjustment is necessary because the
door strike cannot be properly triggered, use the following procedure.
1. Set the
PULSE
SENSITIVITY
control to the middle position.
2. From the entry system, call the suite telephone that is not triggering the door circuit.
3. Observe the
PULSE
INDICATOR
while the digit “9” is being dialed from the suite
telephone. The indicator should flash distinctly every time a pulse is heard.
4. If the indicator barely comes on, the sensitivity is set too low. Increase the sensitivity
by turning the shaft of the potentiometer clockwise 1/8th of a turn at a time until the
indicator shows distinct flashing.
