Introduction
The PC4851 ‘No Phone Bill’ module is used with the PC4850 Telephone Entry Controller to
eliminate the need for a dedicated telephone line. The PC4851 interfaces between the
tenant’s telephone and the existing telephone system, allowing communication between
the lobby intercom and the tenants. The PC4851 comprises a main controller board and
one or more 12 or 24 line relay cards to provide up to 750 telephone connections.
Operation
When a visitor calls a tenant the following will occur:
• The PC4851 rings the tenant’s telephone. If the phone is busy, the PC4851 module
sends a double beep, indicating that a visitor is calling from the lobby.
• The tenant can switch to the visitor’s call by pressing the Hook-switch or ‘3’ on their
telephone. This will disconnect the tenant’s telephone from the telephone system but
allow it to remain connected to the PC4851 module and the lobby intercom.
• The tenant can open doors by pressing 7for door #1 or 9for door #2.
• When the visitor’s call is finished, the tenant can return to the original call by pressing
Hook-switch or ‘3’ on their telephone.

INDUSTRY CANADA STATEMENT
AV I S : L’étiquette de l’Industrie Canada identifie le matériel homologué. Cette étiquette certifie
que le matériel est conforme à certaines normes de protection, d’exploitation et de sécurité des
réseaux de télécommunications. Industrie Canada n’assure toutefois pas que le matériel fonction-
nera à la satisfaction de l’utilisateur.
Avant d’installer ce matériel, l’utilisateur doit s’assurer qu’il est permis de le raccorder aux instal-
lations de l’entreprise locale de télécommunication. Le matériel doit également être installé en
suivant une méthode acceptée de raccordement. L’abonné ne doit pas oublier qu’il est possible
que la conformité aux conditions énoncées ci-dessus n’empêchent pas la dégradation du service
dans certaines situations.

Pour sa propre protection, l’utilisateur doit s’assurer que tous les fils de mise à la terre de la source
d’énergie électrique, les lignes téléphoniques et les canalisations d’eau métalliques, s’il y en a, sont
raccordés ensemble. Cette précaution est particulièrement importante dans les régions rurales.
AVERTISSEMENT: L’utilisateur ne doit pas tenter de faire ces raccordements lui-même; il doit
avoir recours à un service d’inspection des installations électriques, ou à un électricien, selon le
cas.
Indice d’équivalence de la sonnerie (IÉS) assigné a chaque dispositif terminal indique, pour éviter
toute surcharge, le pourcentage de la charge totale qui peut être raccordée à un circuit télépho-
nique bouclé utilisé par ce dispositif. La terminaison du circuit bouclé peut être constituée de
n’importe quelle combinaison de dispositifs, pourvu que la somme des indices d’équivalence de la
sonnerie de l’ensemble des dispositifs ne dépasse pas 5.
Indice d’équivalence de la sonnerie de ce produit est 0.0.

Important Information
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the side of this equipment is a label that contains,
among other information, the FCC registration number of this equipment.
NOTIFICATION TO TELEPHONE COMPANY.The customer shall notify the telephone company of the particular line
to which the connection will be made, and provide the FCC registration number and the ringer equivalence of the
protective circuit.
FCC Registration Number: F53CAN-36295-AL-N
Ringer Equivalence Number: 0.0
USOC Jack: RJ-71C
T
ELEPHONE CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS.Except for the telephone company provided ringers, all connections
to the telephone network shall be made through standard plugs and telephone company provided jacks, or
equivalent, in such a manner as to allow for easy, immediate disconnection of the terminal equipment. Standard
jacks shall be so arranged that, if the plug connected thereto is withdrawn, no interference to the operation of the
equipment at the customer’s premises which remains connected to the telephone network shall occur by reason
of such withdrawal.
INCIDENCE OF HARM.Should terminal equipment or protective circuitry cause harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify the customer that temporary disconnection of service
may be required; however, where prior notice is not practicable, the telephone company may temporarily dis-
continue service if such action is deemed reasonable in the circumstances. In the case of such temporary discon-
tinuance, the telephone company shall promptly notify the customer and will be given the opportunity to
correct the situation.
ADDITIONAL TELEPHONE COMPANY INFORMATION.The security control panel must be properly connected to the
telephone line with a USOC RJ-71C telephone jack.
The FCC prohibits customer-provided terminal equipment from being connected to party lines or being used in
conjunction with coin telephone service. Interconnect rules may vary from state to state.
CHANGES IN TELEPHONE COMPANY EQUIPMENT OR FACILITIES.The telephone company may make changes in its
communications facilities, equipment, operations or procedures, where such actions are reasonably required and
proper in its business. Should any such changes render the customer’s terminal equipment incompatible with
the telephone company facilities the customer shall be given adequate notice to effect the modifications to main-
tain uninterrupted service.
RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER (REN). The REN is useful for determining the number of devices that you may
connect to your telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your telephone number is called. In
most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To
be certain of the number of devices that you may connect to your line, you may want to contact your local tele-
phone company.
EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE FACILITY.If you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact
your equipment supplier for information on obtaining service or repairs. The telephone company may ask that
you disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure that
the equipment is not malfunctioning.
