1 INTRODUCTION
The HC2-KNX 7” and HC2L-KNX 10,4” touch panels from Iddero can be used as indoor monitors for
compatible video door phone systems. This document provides the necessary information to configure
this functionality.
2 INSTALLATION
The HC2-KNX and HC2L-KNX touch panels support IP-based door phone systems. In order to
interconnect the video door phone system and an Iddero touch panel, only a TCP/IP network
connection is required.
The following figure shows a typical configuration where the door phone system and the Iddero touch
panels are connected to different ports of an Ethernet switch, using standard UTP cable. Category
CAT5E or better is recommended.
On single-home setups where only one touch panel is used and a local data network is not required,
the Ethernet switch can be skipped by directly connecting the video door phone system and the touch
panel through a crossover Ethernet cable. However, using an Ethernet switch is recommended in
order to allow for future expansion of the installation.

4 2N HELIOS IP VIDEO DOOR PHONES
4.1 Supported models
All 2N Helios IP door communicators (Vario, Force, and Safety series) are supported.
Two-way audio and the door opening function are implemented for all supported 2N Helios IP models.
Visualization of video input in the HC2-KNX touch panel is supported for camera-equipped 2N Helios
IP door communicators.
In the Iddero configuration software, select “2N Helios IP Pro” if your Helios door communicator is
equipped with a 2N professional license key (manufacturer part number 9137901). This enables some
special features such as the ability to open the door without requiring an incoming call, as well as an
enhanced video encoding scheme that provides better video quality.
If your Helios door communicator is not equipped with a professional license key, please select “2N
Helios IP Basic” instead (requires version 1.6.1 or later of the Iddero configuration software).
For more information about Helios IP door communicators, please check the manufacturer’s website:
http://www.2n.cz/en/
4.2 Video door phone configuration
This section provides enough information to configure 2N Helios IP video door phone systems for use
in combination with Iddero touch panels. This information is provided for illustrative purposes only. For
additional details, or for advanced configuration of the 2N Helios IP product, please refer to the
documentation provided by 2N.
Configuration of the video door phone requires the following steps:
1. Network configuration
2. Video configuration (for camera-equipped door stations)
3. Doorbell button configuration
4. Door opening function configuration

1. Network configuration
2N Helios IP door stations are preconfigured to obtain an IP address dynamically, using the DHCP
protocol. You will need to modify the network configuration and assign a static IP address to the unit.
In order to do this, access the door phone’s web-based administration interface through a standard
web browser, and follow these steps:
•Enter the Advanced Settings →Network menu.
•Disable DHCP mode (“DHCP client enabled: No”)
•Enter an IP address and network mask in the “Static IP address” y “Network mask” fields of
the “Static settings” section.
•Click on the save icon in the bottom right corner (floppy disk icon)
Please make sure that the IP address assigned to the 2N Helios IP video door phone can be reached
from the Iddero touch panel. For this, both devices must be in the same TCP/IP subnet. For example,
if the touch panel’s IP address is 192.168.0.200, with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (default values),
assign an IP in the 192.168.0.x range to the video door phone (for example, 192.168.0.231), and set
the subnet mask as 255.255.255.0.
)Remember:
You can check the current TCP/IP configuration of the Iddero panel at anytime by going to the System
Settings menu and pressing the “Network” button. The network configuration is also shown onscreen
when the touch panel boots in installation mode.

3. Doorbell button configuration
Now we need to configure the call actions associated to each button in the video door phone.
For example, to configure the call action for quick dialling button 1 in the video door phone, proceed as
follows:
•Enter the Basic Settings →Phone book menu
•Select position “1” in the upper part f the screen. Position 1 corresponds to quick dialling
button 1 in the video door phone.
•Ensure that this position is enabled (“Position enabled: Yes”)
•Ensure that this user is active (“User current state: Active”)
•Enter the SIP address of the Iddero touch panel in the “Number 1” field of the “Phone
numbers” section. The SIP address has the following syntax (replace <ip_address> with the
actual IP address of the Iddero touch panel):
sip:hc2@<ip_address>
•Click on the save icon in the bottom right corner
Repeat this process if you want to configure additional buttons in the video door phone.
