Note:
L�The measurements and angles are for reference purposes and may vary depending on the environment.
L�If a strong light is shining on the door station, the visitor’s face may not be distinguishable.
Do not place the door station in the following locations.
– Where most of the background is the sky.
– Where the background is a white wall, and direct sunlight will reflect off it.
– Where direct sunlight will shine on the door station.
– Where echoing occurs, causing the unit to beep frequently.
L� Make sure the back of the door station is not subject to water.
Standard installation position of the main monitor station
Place the main monitor station in a location so that your eyes are the same height as the center of the display.
Note:
L�This unit is using an electric wave frequency of 2.4 GHz. Read “For best performance” on the Operating Instructions.
L�In areas surrounded by a high electrical field, disturbances may occur in the main monitor station’s image or sound.
L�Be sure to install the main monitor station more than 5 m away from the door station.
L�Do not place any objects within 20 cm of the main monitor station. This may cause communication errors or malfunction.
L�Do not install the main monitor station inside a wall.
L�Do not install the unit in places where it will be affected by extremely high-frequency radio waves (near broadcasting
antennas etc.). This may cause the display to flicker or an interrupting noise to occur.
If you change to the Wireless Video Intercom System from chime, bell or buzzer
Existing wires (e.g. chime, bell or buzzer) may connect to power supplies (AC 100-240 V or 24 V).
If you connect the Wireless Video Intercom System through such existing wires, electric shock or unit damage may occur.
Contact the dealer where you purchased.
