The

K-1205

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 includ-
ed adapter, the plug on the adapter cord will have to be removed. The power
connections to the 

K-1205

(black wires) are not polarity sensitive.

There are also 8 more wires connected to the 

K-1205

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 con-
nectors are provided for easier connection to building wiring. The table at the
right describes each wire’s function.

A. Mounting

To install a directory, remove the four screws that mount the directory
lens to the front of the 

K-1205 

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 graph-
ics. For your convenience, the back of this document has pre-printed
directory forms.

B. Changing the Directory

C. Wiring the K-1205 Controller Board

The 

K-1205

is designed to be

installed in a sheltered location, and
is not meant to be used outdoors.
For outdoor applications use the 

K-

1205-EWP

. The 

K-1205

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 provid-
ed to fill the unused mounting holes.

IMPORTANT:

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

outlet and the telephone line.  It is recommended that a surge protector be installed to protect against such surges.
