Stripping and Connecting CAT5 Wire
Blade
CATt5
1.
Place the CAT5 between the blade and the first notch of the J-110 tool.
CAT5 cable should be stripped with a proper stripping tool, such as Channel
Vision’s J-110 tool.

Rotate
1 turn only
2.
Rotate the tool only once. Multiple
turns will cause you to cut into the
inner wires.
3.
Inspect the inner wires for damage.
If any wires are cut start over at step 1.
Check for damage
1)
When the doorbell is pressed the phones do not ring, but you
can activate and speak to the door station by pressing **
(or ##
depending on setup).
a. Make sure that you have the correct power supply and that it is
supplying 12 VAC.
b. Measure the AC voltage on the “Phones” terminals at the time
when the unit should be ringing (just after the doorbell button is
press). There should be between 70 - 90 VAC across the terminals
during a ring cycle.
2)
The phones in the house cannot communicate with the door
station
.
a. Make sure the power supply is plugged in.
b. Make sure the phones are connected to the output labeled
“Phones” on the telephone entry controller. To be sure of this,
connect one phone directly to the “Phones” wire terminals and test
the unit.
3)
A static or “screeching” noise is heard when speaking to the
door station.
a. If DSL is present in the system, install a DSL filter on the phone
line before the telephone entry controller.
4)
The phone does not release the line when it is hung up after
speaking to the door station.
a. This occurs when the phones in use draw unusual amounts of
current and the telephone entry controller cannot sense the
change. To disconnect, press the disconnect key (this could be
either ## or ** depending on setup).
5)
The TE110DS does not activate.
a. Make sure you’re pressing the correct key sequence.
If already speaking to the door station, just press *7 (or #7).
If not already speaking to the door station, press ***7 (or ###7).
b. Measure the voltage on the wire terminals labeled “INTERCOM”
When the system is idle, there should be 1 VDC on the terminals.
When speaking to the door station, there should be about 6 VDC
on the terminals.
When the TE110DS is activated there should be at least 10 VDC
on the terminals.
