Confidentiality Notice
This manual is provided solely as an installation, operation, and maintenance guide and contains sensitive
business and technical information that is confidential and proprietary to GAI-Tronics. GAI-Tronics
retains all intellectual property and other rights in or to the information contained herein, and such
information may only be used in connection with the operation of your GAI-Tronics product or system.
This manual may not be disclosed in any form, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, to any third
party.
General Information
GAI-Tronics Rugged Auto-Dial Telephones are ideally suited for conditions that are too harsh for a
standard telephone. When the handset is removed from the cradle, a preprogrammed number of up to 31
digits is automatically dialed. The telephones are fully line-powered and do not require internal batteries.
This manual applies to the following telephones:
Model 227-001 Public Access Auto-dial Telephone
Model 247-001 Indoor Industrial Auto-dial Telephone
Model 257-001 Weatherproof Industrial Auto-dial Telephone
Model 277-001 Flush-Mount Auto-dial Telephone
Models 277-001BH and 277-001BHAC Flush-Mount Behavioral Health Telephone
Operation
To auto-dial the stored telephone number, follow these instructions:
1. Lift the handset. After approximately 1 second, the preprogrammed number is dialed automatically.
2. The handset receiver volume is adjustable using the handset pressbar or the volume control pushbutton
located on the front of the telephone. The volume increases with each button press in six steps.
Pressing the volume control a seventh time will reset the volume to the original level. When the
handset is returned to its cradle, the receiver volume is returned to the initial volume setting. This
behavior can be changed by the volume control jumper setting. See the Volume Control Jumper
Setting section for information on configuring the jumper.
3. To redial, place the handset on hook and wait approximately 3 seconds. Lift the handset and the
preprogrammed number is redialed.

Installation
ATTENTION
—Installation should be performed by qualified personnel and only in
accordance with the National Electrical Code or applicable local codes.
Safety Guidelines
When installing any GAI-Tronics telephone equipment, please adhere to the following guidelines to
ensure the safety of all personnel:
NEVER install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Install a UL Listed lightning arrestor on any telephone installed where the telephone or telephone
cable is at risk of being exposed to lightning strikes. The lightning arrestor must be installed as close
as possible to maximize the protection. It must not be installed within the enclosure supplied with the
telephone. Please consult our Service Center at 800-492-1212 for further information.
Do not install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
Do not touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
Security Hardware
Models 227-001, 277-001, 277-001BH, and 277-001BHAC are vandal resistant, with the front panel for
each telephone attached to its enclosure with security screws. A GAI-Tronics Model 233-001 Security
Screwdriver or Torx T-25 security head tip (sold separately) is recommended for installing the security
screws. Model 247-001 and 257-001 Telephones’ front panels are attached with standard Phillips head
screws.
Conduit Installation Details (Applicable to Models 247-001 and 257-
001)
GAI-Tronics recommends installing telephone lines in conduit to protect against accidental damage and
vandalism. To prevent moisture from entering the enclosure, we strongly recommend the following:
Conduit should enter the enclosure from the bottom whenever possible.
Sealed fittings should be installed at all cable entry points.
Silicone sealant or equivalent should be applied around and inside all conduit entries to prevent
moisture ingress.

Preventive Maintenance for Models 277-001/-001BH/-001BHAC
Stainless steel does require maintenance to prevent corrosion from occurring. Different installation
locations may require more regular maintenance than others, depending on the environment and exposure
to airborne contaminants. The following maintenance steps should be performed on a regular basis or
when corrosion is first noticed on your Model 277-001.
Cleaning
For general cleaning, wipe the surface with a cleanser or a cleanser and water mixture. Any cleanser
that is safe for glass is usually safe for stainless steel. Wipe dry.
If corrosion or rusting is noticed, remove with a non-abrasive commercial cleanser and water. Rub
stained areas in the same direction as the existing grain. Stubborn stains may be removed with a
magnesium oxide, ammonia, and water paste. Wipe clean with water rinse and dry.
Prevention
Automotive wax provides the best results in preventing corrosion on stainless steel. Simply apply wax,
let dry to a haze, and buff to a shine with a clean dry cloth. This application should protect the telephone
surface for many months as it will allow natural reformation of the chromium oxide layer.
Do NOT use steel wool, sandpaper, mineral acids, bleaches, or chlorine cleansers on the stainless
surface.

Volume Control Jumper Setting
The handset receiver volume control is factory set to default to its original setting (0 dB) when the
telephone is hung up. To save the volume control setting, jumper J4, which is factory set at positions 2
and 3, must be moved to positions 1and 2. Refer to Figure 17 for the location of J4.
Auxiliary Output
Each telephone includes one isolated solid state volt-free closure capable of switching a maximum of 48
V dc, 125 mA; or 28 V ac RMS, 80 mA RMS. TB2 (AUX OUT) on the main PCBA provides the connections
for the auxiliary output. Refer to Figure 17 for location of TB2.
The auxiliary output allows peripheral equipment, such as beacons, video cameras, and alarm generators,
to be activated when the handset is off hook. The relay remains energized for the duration of the call.
