Introduction
Switchboard PDX2000 is a component of the Digital System
“DUO” and comes with a table adaptor and junction box for
an easy connection to the installation. Equipped with an
alphanumerical keypad, an LCDdisplay and 7service buttons
suitable for making all the functions. The switchboard can
communicate with 200 users (intercoms or videointercoms)
and with one or more door stations.
Characteristics (see gure)
1 - Button “hold”. During the conversation with an
internal user or a door station, pressing it, it is pos-
sible to hold the conversation in progress and then
resume it by pressing again the same button. The
user in hold is ashing on the display.
2 - Button “ON-OFF”. It allows to power ON and OFF
the switchboard (function day-night).
3 - Button“connect”. It allows toput in communication
2 internal users or a door station with an internal
user.
4 - Button “door opener”. It allows to release the lock
of the door station in conversation in that moment
or that of the last door station from which a call has
been made.
5 - Button “monitor”. It allows to control a door sta-
tion quickly connecting to it (or in case of multiple
entrances. To the last door station from which a
call has been made.
6- Button “menu”. This is the button which allows
to access all the functions to set and program the
switchboard. To move inside the submenus use
the arrow buttons.
7 - Arrow up (or back).
Main functions
- Three operating modes: day, night and direct call
- Communication between internal users or internal users
and door stations
- Monitor of one or more door stations
- Inclusion on a busy user
- Booking of calls (it can store up to 50 unanswered calls)
- Selective door lock release
- Users directory
8 - Arrow down (or forward).
9 - Button “erase”. It allows to erase a character or a
selection during settings or insertion of names.
10 -Button “enter”. It allows to conrm and proceed
to the next entry.
11 - During the normal operations of the switchboard
it allows to actuate the internal relay. During the
insertionofdatathisbuttonisusedtoselectthetype
of character (upper or lower case, numbers, etc.).
12 - Alphanumerical Keypad.
13 - Button “inclusion”. It allows the switchboard
operator to include during a communication in
progress.
14 - Button “reset”. Press this button to restart the
switchboard. During the reset no data will be lost.
15 - LCD Display. It shows data and functions during
the operation of the switchboard or during the
programming.
16 - LED’s to underline the most important functions
of the switchboard.
17 - Memory card socket. Using the memory card it

Installation and connection
The Switchboard is ready for the installation on a desk.
Fix the junction box to the wall with screws and expansion
plugs or to a wall box (Ø=60mm) and make the connection
according to the installation diagram.
To x the switchboard to the wall it is necessary to dis-
mount the plastic table adaptors and use the same metal
wall brackets. Do not use the junction box with the white
connection cable and make the connections directly to the
terminal board of the switchboard. Check for the correct-
ness of the wiring.
Power-ON the system by connecting the power supplies to
the mains.
Programming
For a correct operation of a digital system “DUO”, it is nec-
essary to program all the devices present in the installation.
Switchboard is programmed from factory with the ad-
dress 201. If it is necessary address can be changed
following the instructions reported on the chapter “PDX
Address”.
In all the internal stations a button, pressing which you
will call the switchboard, must be programmed with the
same address of switchboard (according to the previous
example 201); for programming please follow the proce-
dure indicated in the technical manual which comes with
the product.
Program all the door stations to set them for the pres-
ence of the switchboard.

Electrical door lock
The video signal may
be disturbed during the
operation of the electrical
lock. To avoid this prob-
lem or actuate locks with
characteristics otherthan
recommended (12Vac
1A max.) an additional
power supply should be
used as indicated in the
diagram below.
It is also recommended to connect one interfer-
ence suppressor (transil) as close as possible to
the terminals of the electrical lock.
* Letters for reference on the diagrams (see pages 7 and 8)
** The sum of all the sections “E” must not exceed 300 meters.

Connection to a monitor
With the switchboard it is possible also to get the image from door sta-
tions installing the monitor FARFISA art. ST7100CW, the wall bracket
art. WB7262 and the table adaptor art. TA7100W (for a proper installa-
tion and connection please refer to the technical manual of wall bracket).
It is also possible to use a CCTV monitor.
Connection of a CCTV monitor
Attention! Please use a monitor with no earth connection (Class II) or
use a ground loop separator. CCTV monitor can work either in continu-
ous or timed mode. In the case of continuous mode (direct powering
from the main) monitor is still powered-ON also when the door station is
not connected (no image).
In timed mode monitor is powered-ON only when the door station is in
connection (with image). To operate in this way it is necessary to con-
nect the CCTV monitor as shown in the following diagram and program
the internal relay of switchboard as reported in the chapter “Operating
mode of internal relay” (see pag.14).

Operations
Make a call from Switchboard
To make a call from the switchboard to an internal user it
is necessary to dial the number of the required user using
the keypad or select the name of the required user from the
directory (see chapter “directory”) and then press .
Call the switchboard
Tocall the switchboardfrom an internalstation, itis necessary:
pick-up the handset (or press the button with “Echos”
series);
- if the line is free you will get a dialing tone
- if the line is busy you will get a busy tone
press the button on which the address of the switchboard
has been stored
- if, after about 30 seconds, switchboard operator does
not answer or if it rejects the call, automatically the call
will be stored in a booking queue
- if the line is busy immediately the call is booked on the
switchboard and an acoustic tone will be heard
- if the line is free, switchboard starts ringing and its display
shows the name and the address of the calling user; LED
and light-ON.
pick-up the switchboard handset within 30 seconds to
answer the call. Communication time is about 90 seconds
and during the last 10 seconds an acoustic tone will remind
the communication time is going to expire; if some extra
time is necessary press twice the button .
Call from door station
Making a call from a door station, the switchboard will ring
with the programmed ringer tone (see “select ringer tones”
chapter), the display will show the name and the address of
the calling door station and of the user the caller is looking
for; LED will lights-ON indicating the incoming call.
Pick-up the handset to talk with the door station, press the
button to release the lock.
Communication will last after 90 seconds or replacing the
handset.
Note. If, when the door station makes a call, the switchboard
is engaged in a communication with another user or there
is a communication on “hold” or there is communication be-
tween two internal users, the switchboard will ring only with
a single tone and LED lights-ON for all the time of the
call. To communicate with the door station it is necessary to
close all the communications in progress.
Connection of the switchboard to the door sta-
tions
At any moment it is possible to monitor the door stations
pressing the button . If in the installation there are more
door stations, pressing the button the switchboard will
be connected with the last door station which has made a
call. For a selective connection with a specic door station
it is necessary to operate as described in the following:
pick-up the handset, dial the address of the door station you
want to monitor (e.g.:231) and press to be connected
only video with the door station (press or replace
and pick-up again the handset to activate also the audio)
pick-up the handset and dial the address of the door station
youwantto monitor (e.g.:231), press to be connected
audio and video with the door station
with the handset on-hook, select the requested door sta-
tion from the door stations list. Press - select “Door
stations”– press - select the requested door station
from the list – press , you get only the video (to en-
able the audio pick-up the handset
With the handset on-hook select the door station from the
directory. Press - select “Directory” – press
- select the requested door station from the list – press
, you get only the video (to enable the audio pick-up
