This feature is useful if you have entry phones that require touch tone programming and can automatically answer incoming calls.
All Viking handsfree entry phones have this capability; check the entry phone settings to make sure that auto-answer is enabled.
To program entry phones, enter the
C-2000B
programming mode locally using a house phone (see
Programming A. Accessing
Programming, section 1 or 2
). In programming, enter
##1
,
##2
,
##3
or
##4
to select the entry phone to be programmed, and the
C-2000B
will send ring signal to that entry phone. If the called entry phone answers, the
C-2000B
connects the entry phone to the
house phone and the
C-2000B
no longer reacts to any touch tones dialed from the house phone to the entry phone, allowing any
programming the entry phone may require. If the entry phone does not answer within 5 rings (programmable – “maximum entry
phone ring count”), 3 beeps will be heard and the
C-2000B
will exit the programming mode. With the entry phone and house phone
connected, enter the entry phone’s security code if required and proceed to program the entry phone. When finished, disconnect
the house phone from the entry phone by entering the hangup command for the entry phone (see the product manual for the entry
phone to determine what that is). If there is a hangup command for the entry phone, it will be either “
#7
” or “
0000
”.) If there is not
a hangup command for the entry phone, wait for the silence timer to expire (default value is 40 seconds). When the entry phone
hangs up, the
C-2000B
remains in the programming mode, ready for additional programming commands. To program another
entry phone, enter “
##
” plus the number of the entry phone and repeat the cycle. When finished programming the entry phones,
hang up the house phone to leave the programming mode.

Caller ID Programming Chart
Caution:
Some Caller ID displays may not be compatible with certain characters.
Entry phone calls are factory set to ring the house phones in a custom double ring cadence (.7 seconds on/.3 seconds off/.7 seconds
on then 4 seconds off between rings), “
Q
3
”. The
C-2000B
can be programmed to give a standard ring cadence for entry phone
calls (2 seconds of ring, and 4 seconds off between rings), enter “
Q
4
” when in programming. Entry phone ringing can also be disabled
by entering “
0#62
”. This is useful when connecting the
C-2000B
to the
SLP-1
or
SLP-4
to provide unique door chimes.
P. Entry Phone Ring Cadence
O. No Entry Phone Mode
If one or more of the entry phone positions is unused, it can be programmed to operate in the No Entry Phone Mode (see note
below). In this mode the house phones can control door strike relays for the unused entry phone positions, without being forced to
enter the relay command within a few seconds. For example, with entry phone 4 programmed in the No Entry Phone Mode, when
a house phone goes off hook and dials “
#4
”, the house phone can wait any length of time before entering a one or two digit
(programmable) Door Strike Activation Code (** is the default) or “
Q
1
”, “
Q
0
” or “
Q
#
” to latch, unlatch or toggle the relay. When this
mode is enabled, monitoring an entry phone at that position is no longer possible. The No Entry Phone Mode is disabled by default.
To enable this mode for a given entry phone position, enter “
1
” in the memory location for that entry phone (“
1#81
” for entry phone
1, “
1#82
” for entry phone 2, “
1#83
” for entry phone 3 or “
1#84
” for entry phone 4). To disable the No Entry Phone Mode for a given
entry phone position, enter a “
0
” in place of the “
1
” in the memory location for that entry phone.
Note:
The entry phone 1 position cannot be programmed in the No Entry Phone Mode while the
C-2000B
is in the Doorbell Mode
(DIP switch 1 ON), as the Doorbell Mode relies on entry phone 1 being connected in order to operate correctly. The
C-2000B
will
provide 3 error beeps if you attempt to program “
1#81
” while DIP switch 1 is ON.
1. Dial “9” to Access the Outside Line
Q . Outside Line Access
To program the
C-2000B
for C.O. dial tone, enter “
Q
5
” while programming. To gain access to C.O. dial tone,
dial a touch tone “
9
”.
Note:
“
Q
5
” must be programmed when connecting a
C-2000B
to an unused phone
system trunk/line input and no C.O. line is connected to the
C-2000B
.
2. Instant Outside Line Access (factory default)
To program the
C-2000B
for private dial tone, enter “
Q
6
” while in programming. House phones will instantly
have the outside line dial tone on an off-hook.
