INTRODUCTION
The Station Door Phone is specifically designed to
communicate with a telephone system that pro-
vides Primeline, Off-hook ring-down, Hotline and
Elevator Call capabilities.
The Station Door Phone connects to a standard
telephone system analog station port to allow the
caller at the door speaker to have a two-way con-
versation with someone inside the building. The
weather resistant enclosure is ideal for indoor or
outdoor environments.

OPERATION
Off-Hook Ring-down, Hotline, Primeline
The Station Door Phone operates much like a
telephone without a dial-pad. It connects to an
analog station port on a telephone system. When
the Station Door Phone push button is pressed,
this unit provides an off-hook condition to the tele-
phone system analog station port, the faceplate
LED lights, and an alert tone beeps at the
speaker.
Some telephone systems provide a programma-
ble auto-dial/ring-down feature. When used with
these telephone systems, the phone system will
automatically dial a telephone number (prepro-
grammed into the phone system software) when
the Station Door Phone push button is pressed.
The person answering the ringing phone inside is
automatically connected to the caller at the Station
Door Phone.
To call the Station Door Phone from a telephone,
dial the extenstion number, just as you would dial
a telephone extension.
NOTE: See Figure 5 for normal default Dip Switch
settings.
Auxiliary Alert
The Station Door Phone can be used to activate
an Auxiliary Alert device (such as a door bell or
chime) instead of ringing a telephone.
VOX Operation
The Station Door Phone is equipped with a VOX
(voice activated switch) circuit. This feature is pro-
vided to automatically drop communications to the

2947174
door speaker when there is no audio detected, for
more than 24 seconds, from the telephone exten-
sion within the building. Visitors talking into the
door speaker will not affect the VOX circuit.
INSTALLATION
There are two surface mount methods to secure
the Station Door Phone to a wall. The first method
utilizes mounting brackets. The gang box mount-
ing brackets (included) can be screwed to the
back plate so they protrude out the sides of the
box. Position the screws through the bracket
holes and secure the box to the wall.
Another method to attach the gang box to the
surface of a wall is to drill mounting holes (4)
directly into the back of the box. Position the
screws through the inside ofthe box and secure to
the wall.
NOTE: All conduit and closure plug connections
should be adequately sealed (i.e., pipe joint com-
pound) for wet location installations.
Do not allow conduit to protrude into rear opening
of outlet box to avoid interference with Station
Door Phone. Wire length should be kept to 6
inches to avoid interferences during installation.
For maximum protection from ESD or lightning,
connect the outlet box to earth ground via the
conduit.
CONNECTIONS
The Station Door Phone back panel has two sets
of terminals; one set is labeled ALERT, and the
other labeled TIP/RING (see Figure 1). The TIP/
RING terminals that connect to your telephone
system must use twisted pair phone wire. See Fig-
ure 2 for wiring diagram. Follow steps below:
NOTE: Check National Electrical Code and appli-
cable local codes and ordinances for exact wiring
requirements for your area.
1. Loosen each of the terminal block screws and
insert exposed wire ends into appropriate
terminal block locations. Tighten screws and
ensure wire connections are correct before
continuing.
2. Place the dip switch in the position shown in
Figure 5 (factory default setting). Program your
telephone system for the phone number(s) to
be called when the Station Door Phone button
is activated.

3. Connect the Station Door Phone wires to the
designated station port on the telephone sys-
tem.
4. Test the system by having an assistant call the

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CUSTOMER PROVIDED OR EXISTING
DOOR ALERT (SIGNALLING UNIT)
These instructions apply to the use of a customer
provided auxiliary alert or an existing door alert
(signaling) unit.
1. Connect Station Door Phone to existing door
alert push button so that existing button is in
parallel with Station Door Phone Terminals 1
and 2 (see Figure 2).
NOTE: While Station Door Phone button or exist-
ing door bell button is depressed some types of
alerting devices will continue to sound or operate.
If desired, the existing door bell button can be
removed thus allowing the Station Door Phone
button to replace the function of the existing door
bell button. Connect wires from existing door bell
button to Terminals 1 and 2 on the
Station Door Phone (see Figure 4).
NOTE: When using Auxiliary Alert option, all four
wires must be connected.
