The Wireless Call Station Handset
There is one type of wireless call station handset. This meets the needs of all VM Homelift models
and door types. The handset clips to a bracket attached to the wall (see Fig.1). For new installations,
where the wireless call station option has been ordered, two handsets, two handset wall brackets, one
receiver and two wireless call station looms are supplied. Both handsets are supplied paired to the
receiver. One handset and bracket must be fitted at each level by the lift installer. The estimated
range of the handset within buildings is 20 to 40 metres.
If desired, the handset can be unclipped from its bracket and used as a portable handset. Key
switches on wireless call stations are not available. However, once unclipped, the user can place the
handset in a secure location to prevent unauthorised use. If call station key switches are required, we
recommend the hard-wired call station option is installed. In the interest of safety, we recommend the
handset is retained on its wall bracket while the lift is in use.
Further wireless handsets can be added (see page 4).
Note 1: The Green LED illuminates only when a button is pressed.
When the batteries are low, the Red LED will flash for 5 seconds after a button is pressed.

Battery Replacement
Each wireless call station handset requires three AAA batteries. We recommend the batteries are
replaced annually by the service provider, or another competent person. To replace the batteries,
remove all six screws on the rear of the handset for access to the battery holder. Then remove the
two screws from the battery holder (see Fig. 2). When reassembling, take care not to pinch any wires
between the casings.
