Using the doorbell or intercom
1 Press the button on the doorbell or intercom.
The LED on the transmitter lights up in green to show
that the sound is detected.
2 The green Visit LED on the receiver lights up to show
that the radio signal was received. In addition it starts to
sound, ash or vibrate depending on the receiver.
Note: If you have changed the signal pattern, it will react in
accordance with the table on the following spread.
Testing the connection
Using the test button
1 Press both test buttons simultaneously on the door
transmitter. The top LED lights up in green to show that
a radio signal is being transmitted.
2 The green Visit LED on the receiver lights up to show
that the signal was received. In addition it starts to
sound, ash or vibrate depending on the receiver.
Note: If you have changed the signal pattern, it will react in

Clearing the recorded sounds
To clear all recorded sounds, press and hold button 1 and 2 simultaneously for 5 seconds.
Note: This will clear the recorded sounds and the transmitter will return to factory settings, but the radio key settings and
signal settings are kept intact.
Using electromagnetic detection
The transmitter can be set to detect electromagnetic elds generated by electric doorbells. Here is how it’s done:
Open the transmitter front cover and move signal switch no. 4 to the up = on position to activate
electromagnetic detection. To deactivate it, move the signal switch back to the down = o position.
Using accessories
Using an external microphone
The external microphone can be used when the sound source is located too far away from the internal microphone or
when you for instance need individual notications from the doorbell and intercom.
Connecting an accessory to the external trigger input
Remove the front cover to access the screw terminal. There are three connection points.
Use connection points 1and 2to connect an active switch like a relay with current.
Note: The current must be 2 – 30 VDC, polarity independent or 2 – 24 VAC 5 – 150Hz.
Use connection points 2and 3to connect a passive mechanical switch like a doorbell push button.
Programming the transmitter
The door transmitter is programmed from the start to recognize the majority of doorbells and intercoms. If the doorbell
signal varies signicantly in strength or tone, you might need to teach it to recognize the sound of your specic doorbell.
Here is how you program the transmitter:
1Press and hold button 1 until the top LED starts to blink. Release it to start the recording.
2Ring the doorbell at least ve times. Pause 1 – 2 seconds between each press. The recording lasts for 5 minutes and ends
automatically. You can stop it manually by pressing button 1.
3When it’s nished, the LED lights up in green to conrm that it was successful. If the LED is red, see Troubleshooting.
4Ring the doorbell. The top LED on the transmitter lights up in green to conrm that it recognizes the sound.
You can record the sound of the intercom using button 2 by repeating the steps above.

Default signal pattern
When the door transmitter is activated, the following happens:
1The LED on the transmitter lights up in green to show that it’s signalling the receiver.
2The Visit LED on the receiver lights up in green and it starts to sound, ash or vibrate with a certain pace, called signal
pattern. The transmitter and the connected accessories determine the signal pattern. The default is as follows:
Transmitter Receiver signal pattern

If Try this
The LEDs blink in orange every minute Replace the batteries. Only use 1.5 V AA (LR6) lithium or alkaline batteries.
The transmitter LEDs blinks in orange
every second
There are other competing sound sources around the door transmitter. Switch
them o or turn them down.
Disconnect the external microphone accessory to make sure it is not faulty.
The transmitter LED lights up when I
press the doorbell or intercom – but
the receiver is not activated
Check the the transmitter batteries and the receiver batteries and connections.
Move the receiver closer to the transmitter to make sure it’s within radio range.
Check that the door transmitter and the receiver are set to the same radio key.
For more information, see Changing the radio key.
The transmitter LED doesn’t light up
when I ring the doorbell or intercom
Ring the doorbell while moving the transmitter closer and further away from
the sound source. The ideal distance is less than 3 cm.
Program the transmitter to recognize the doorbell sound. See Programming.
If the signal varies a lot in strength or tone, change to electromagnetic detection.
If the door transmitter is still not activated, press and hold button 1 and 2
simultaneously for 5 s to clear the recorded sounds and repeat the steps above.
The receiver is activated for no
apparent reason
There is probably another Visit system installed nearby that triggers your
system. Change the radio key on all units, see Changing the radio key.
Changing the radio key
If your Visit system is activated for no reason, there is probably a nearby system that triggers yours. In order to avoid radio
interference you need to change the radio key on all units. The radio key switches are located under the transmitter cover.
Here is how you change the radio key:
1Open the transmitter front cover and move any radio key switch to the up = on position to
change the radio key. (By default, all radio key switches are positioned down = o. )
2Press and hold the test/function button on the receiver until the green and yellow Visit LEDs
blink alternately. Release the button.
3Press both test buttons simultaneously on the transmitter within 30 s to send the new radio key.
4All Visit LEDs on the receiver blink 5 times to show that the radio key has been changed. It then returns to normal mode.
Please note: All Visit units must be set to the same radio key in order to operate as a group.
