Call Privacy
Once a call has been made from an entrance panel only the apartment station(s) which is /
are ringing may answer the call. Once the call is answered another apartment station will
not activate (including extensions of the active apartment station).
User Activation (CCTV Mode)
User activation is a feature of the bell
free
1 way system and is not available on multi-way
systems. User activation is generally not recommended on larger systems as the
conflicting demands of residents and callers can result in confusion and erroneous fault
reports.
Cameras
The door controller has the capability of using one or two cameras, for instance a second
panel camera for DDA or a ‘third party’ ‘CCTV’ camera located to offer a different entrance
viewpoint. Touching the
view
symbol will alternate the view between camera 1 and
camera 2 (if enabled).
Note. The camera to controller wiring has termination options which allow for connections
to other video equipment. See the Camera sharing diagram on page 41 for details.
Extension Apartment Stations
Additional apartment stations may be added to the basic system. The number of
extensions is limited only by power supply considerations. All apartment stations for that
‘flat’ will ring when called however typically only the master unit will display a picture while
ringing. Once the master or extension apartment station is ‘picked-up’ the picture will
display on that unit alone. An extra power supply may be used to allow extension
apartment stations to display a picture while ringing.
Lock Type
The door controller supports both fail-secure and fail-safe locks including magnetic locks of
up to 1A rating. The lock time may be programmed between 1 and 99 seconds. (See
‘Lock Operating time’ and ‘Lock Type’ on page 21.
Exit Button and Fire Switch
An input is provided for an exit button, which can be installed on the inside of the door and
allow residents to exit freely. Momentary operation of this button will operate the lock
release for the programmed lock time. A Fire switch or other override device may use the
same input to hold the door open indefinitely. Note. Fail secure locks must be
continuously rated.
Trades Facility
Use of a time clock in conjunction with a trades button will allow free access during the
programmed time(s).
DDA Functionality
The bell
free
video system has a range of options for entrance panels to help meet the
requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA), including Illuminated Tactile
buttons, reassurance tones and LED indicators for “Speak Now” and “Door Open”.
