IMPORTANT:
Electronic devices are susceptible to lightning and power station electrical surges from both the AC

The
K-1270
is designed to be installed in a sheltered location, and is not meant to be used outdoors. For outdoor
applications use the
K-1270-EWP
. The
K-1270
can either be installed as a flush mount unit using the included
rough in box, or as a surface mount unit using an optional
VE-5x10
. The rough in box uses the inner set of four
holes on the face plate while the
VE-5x10
uses the outside set of holes. A set of dummy screws and nuts are
provided to fill the unused mounting holes.
To install a directory, remove the four screws that mount
the directory lens to the front of the
K-1270
using the
included Allen wrench. Insert a paper directory behind the
lens and secure the two back onto the front panel being
careful to align the names with the front panel graphics.
For your convenience, the back of this document has pre-
printed directory forms.
Note:
To print directory forms for the
K-1270
, go to
www.vikingelectronics.com and enter “930” in the DOD
field at the top of the page for a direct link to the PDF.
The
K-1270
can be powered from any source supplying 12
to 24 volts, AC or DC. A 12 volt DC adapter is supplied with
the product. When using the included adapter, the plug on
the adapter cord will have to be removed. The power
connections to the
K-1270
(black wires) are not polarity
sensitive.
There are also 8 more wires connected to the
K-1270
controller board. Two wires are for the incoming phone line,
three are from the high current door strike relay and the last
three are from the camera relay. Gel filled butt connectors
are provided for easier connection to building wiring. The
table at the right describes each wire’s function.
