Mounting the home station
Mounting the home station
Additional power supply
When connecting an additional power supply,
the power supply unit must be EN 61558-
compliant.
In addition, ensure a short-circuit current value
of < 1.5 A.
Do not bridge the BUS and AS
terminals.
The BUS and AS terminals must not be bridged.
The home station automatically detects whether
an additional power supply is connected.
Wiring the plug terminal
Wire the plug terminal as follows:
• BUS terminals for 2-wire bus,
• Additional supply (AS) terminals for any
additional power supply required (one
additional power supply per device is required
for more than three surface-mounted home
stations video 7 called in parallel),
• FC terminals for floor call button.

7
Mounting the home station
The following mounting options are available:
• Wall mounting. You can use the mounting plate
to cover an existing flush-mounted device box
or cavity box.
• Assembly on pedestals for placement on furni-
ture (see accessories).
The section below describes how to mount the
device on a wall.
For setting up the device on pedestals, refer to the
separate installation instructions.
Wall installation
Installation note
Recommended mounting height: 1.60 m to
1.70 m (centre of screen).
Make sure the wall surface is smooth. An irregular
wall surface may result in the mounting plate
warping during installation. This can prevent the
home station from being correctly clipped onto
the mounting plate.

Data protection law
Please note that, in the EU, surveillance of publicly
accessible spaces using opto-electronic technology
and recording of the obtained data is subject to the
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and
other national laws and that a variety of legal
requirements must be met to make such
surveillance legally admissible. All applicable
national laws, most notably those governing data
protection, should be observed outside of the EU as
well.

Functions
Image memory settings
Select image memory and adjust the following
parameters:
• Enable automatic image capture upon door
call
• Number of images per door call (1 to 3)
• Pause between image captures (2 to 5 s)
Note the following:
The home station’s internal image memory
stores up to 200 images. Therefore:
1 image per call = max. 200 savable door calls
3 images per call = max. 66 savable door calls
Image 201 automatically overwrites image 1,
image 202 overwrites image 2 and so on.
Once the image memory reaches 170 images, a
message displays prompting you to save the
images to external storage and/or delete
images.
Once image 200 is reached, an additional
message displays noting that any additional
images will now overwrite the images already
present.
Delete images
use this to permanently delete all images from the
image memory.
This does not apply to any images stored on the
microSD card. These images must be deleted
separately on a PC.
Archiving behaviour
Captured images are saved in the home station’s
internal image memory.
With automatic image capture upon door call
enabled, any new images captured for an
unanswered door call are archived automatically.
Images are not automatically saved in the internal
image memory when door calls are answered or
the door opener button is pressed.
