Page 7 of 40
User Activation (CCTV Mode)
While the system is idle, pressing the
view
button will activate the system and display the
picture at the entrance panel. Once activated, lifting the handset will enable speech at the
entrance and the lock button may now be used to release the door or the user can hang-
up. The picture will switch off after the preset talk-time.
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. Pressing the
view
button 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 Options Diagram on page 34 for details.
Extension Videophones
Additional videophones may be added to the basic system. The number of extensions is
limited only by power supply considerations. All videophones will ring when called
however typically only the master unit will display a picture while ringing. Once the master
or extension videophone is ‘picked-up’ the picture will display on that unit alone.
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 set between 3 and 20
seconds. (See ‘Lock
Operating time’ and ‘Lock Type’ on page 17.
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).
