I NITIAL S ET -U P & P ROGRAMMING .........................................................
IMPORTANT - BEFORE permanently installing the DoorCom™wireless intercom, you will need to review how you would like the Door-
Com™to operate. You will then need to temporarily set-up the system and apply power to the radio. This is necessary to program the
radio and then test the system to confirm you have programmed it correctly.
For example:
•You will need to decide which DoorCom™radio frequency and interference eliminator codes you intend to use.
•You will need to decide which of the two possible Modes of Operation you intend to use.
•You will need to decide where you intend to install the R-Series radio transceiver (INDOOR only mounting).
•Keep in mind, you will need to provide 110VAC to within a few feet of the radio.
•You will need to decide where you intend to install the RDC-1 speaker intercom box (INDOOR/OUTDOOR).
•The RDC-1 to radio connecting cable is 20ft. in length.
•The location of the antenna will also need to be clear of any metal objects and power lines.
•Keep clearance at least 3 feet in all directions.

P ROGRAMMABLE F EATURES ................................................................
Review the features below to determine how your system will
operate. Certain features have been pre-configured as the
Factory Default setting and do not require reprogramming.
Some of the features listed can be Field-Programmed (FP)
without additional tools, and other features require a computer
and programming software (PC). Please call Ritron if you have
any questions or require special programming.
Glossary of Terms
FP = Field-Programmable Feature– no PC & software
required.
PC = PC Programmable Feature with PC & Software
Automatic Turn-Off Mode – Speaker and radio both
automatically turn off after programmable period of inactivity.
Intercom Mode – Automatic Turn-Off feature has been
disabled, the radio is able to receive calls at any time.
Inactivity Time – A continuous period of time where the radio
transceiver is not sending or receiving a call.
1. Field-Programming Enable..................... (PC)
This feature is ENABLED as the Factory Default setting.
If Field-Programming is enabled, the radio can be field-
programmed from a list pre-determined Table Frequencies,
Interference Eliminator codes and other FP features.
If DISABLED, all features must be programmed using special
Ritron PC Programming software and a computer.
2. Mode of Operation - A or B............(PC or FP)
A). Automatic Turn-Off Mode
Feature is ENABLED as Factory Default setting.
The speaker and the radio will turn OFF when the Reset Time
has expired. The Reset Time is a pre-programmed amount of
time of “inactivity” (no calls transmitted, no calls received)
before the speaker and radio turns off. The speaker and radio
are turned ON when the PTT button is pressed.
B). Intercom Mode
If Automatic Turn-Off is NOT enabled, the speaker and the
radio are always on… i.e. Intercom mode. This mode allows
the speaker to hear radio calls all the time.
3. Send A Call Tone ..........................(PC or FP)
Feature is ENABLED as Factory Default setting.
Choose from 2 call tones – Door Bell sound (Factory Default)
or Ringing sound.
The radio can be programmed to transmit of the 2 Call Tones
upon the initial press of the PTT button. This will signal radio-
equipped personnel that the call is originating from the
DoorCom™wireless intercom.
4. Send DoorCom™Time-OutTone..............(PC or FP)
Feature is ENABLED as Factory Default setting.
A HI/Low double-tone alerts the visitor that the speaker has
turned OFF. The same tone is transmitted to radio-equipped
personnel to signal that the RDC-1 speaker is now off and
internal radio communication can continue.
5. Manager Lock................................................................(FP)
Factory Default setting is: “UNLOCKED”.
When radio controls are “Locked”, the operating channel and
speaker volume settings cannot be changed.
Press the VOL Up AND VOL Dwn buttons simultaneously for 5
seconds. The display will show the current setting:
“U” = Unlocked “L” = Locked.
Repeat the above step to toggle between “U” and “L” condition.
6. Inactivity Reset Time ....................(PC or FP)
Factory Default setting: 10 seconds.
The Reset Time can be Field-Programmed to 9 different times
ranging from 5 seconds to 4 minutes, or PC programmed for
5 to 255 seconds. In Automatic Turn-Off mode a longer Reset
Time will allow more time for a response before the speaker
and the radio turn off.
7. Busy Channel TX Inhibit................(PC or FP)
Feature is DISABLED as Factory Default setting.
With this feature enabled the radio cannot transmit when there
is a received signal on the frequency. When a received signal
is present and the PTT buton is pressed, a “busy signal” will be
heard in the RDC-1 speaker.
8. Transmit Beep Enable.............................(PC)
Feature is ENABLED as Factory Default setting.
A short beep will sound in the RDC-1 speaker any time the
PTT button is pressed. This indicates to the user that the
intercom is ready to transmit their message.
9. RX Courtesy Beep Enable........................(PC)
Feature is DISABLED as Factory Default setting.
In high noise environments it is sometimes difficult to
determine when a received message has ended. With the RX
Courtesy Beep enabled the radio will sound a short beep on
the speaker at the end of each received transmission.
10. DTMF ANI ............................................(PC)
The radio can be programmed to send a 1-9 digit DTMF ANI
code at the beginning of each transmission. Allows Caller ID in
only those radio systems equipped with DTMF Decode.
11. TX Time Out Time ................................(PC)
Factory Default setting is 60 seconds.
The TX Time Out Time can be programmed for 1-255 seconds.
This sets the length of time the radio can transmit continuously.
If the PTT button is held down longer then the TX Time Out
Time, the radio will stop transmitting and a “Busy Signal” will
be heard in the speaker until the button is released.
12. Custom Frequency Programming ...........(PC)
The radio can be PC programmed with Ritron R-Series
software to operate on custom narrow band frequencies within
the radios specific operating band. MURS model cannot be
custom programmed to other frequencies.

RDC-1 S PEAKER I NTERCOM B OX I NSTALLATION I NSTRUCTIONS .............
If you intend to mount the metal RDC-1 speaker intercom box on
an outside wall, it will be necessary to route the special
connecting cable through a hole in the exterior wall.
To make the routing process easier and the required hole
smaller, we suggest routing the end of the cable that contains
the 3 spade lugs. You will need to spearate the front of the RDC-
1 from the back and disconnect the three spade lugs from the
screw terminals.
When ready to pass the cable through the hole, attach a “pull
line” BELOW the crimp attachment point of the spade lugs and
gentely pull the cable through the hole (refer to Figure-2).
The RDC-1 Speaker Intercom Box can be secured to virtually to
any surface (INDOOR/OUTDOOR) using up to four (4) screws
(not included).
Installation of RDC-1: (Refer to Figure-2)
1. Determine the method of securing the RDC-1.
a. Use the holes in the mounting tabs on the sides of the
RDC-1.
b. OR Use the mounting holes located directly on the back
of the RDC-1.
2. Determine the routing of the RDC-1 Cable.
a. Through the back of the RDC-1.
b. OR Through the bottom of the RDC-1.
3. Choose a size, type of screw thread and screw length which
will hold firmly in the surface to which the unit will be
mounted.
4. If required, drill the (2) holes to secure the RDC-1 into the
wall mounting surface.
5. If required, drill the hole to route the RDC-1 Cable through
the mounting surface. The hole must be large enough to
pass the cable end containing the (3) spade lugs. We
suggest a 0.5”(1/2”)minimum diameter size hole.
6. Route the RDC-1 Cable through the drilled hole.
7. Using the included Torx bit, remove the (2) T-25 TORX
screws securing the front and rear panels of the RDC-1.
8. Secure the rear panel of the RDC-1 to the mounting surface
using the (2) screws selected in Step 3.
9. If routing RDC-1 Cable through the bottom of the rear panel,
remove the conduit plug, install the require length of conduit,
and route the RDC-1 Cable through the conduit into the
RDC-1 box.
10. CAREFULLY re-connect the (3) spade lugs of the RDC-1
Cable to the (3) correct screw terminals located on the
inside of the front panel.
Take care to match the name on the spade lug label to
the same name printed near the screw terminal (refer to
Figure-2).
11. Secure the RDC-1 Cable to the RDC-1 rear panel tab using
the small cable tie (refer to Figure-2).
12. Place the RDC-1 front panel over the rear panel and secure
with the (2) T-25 TORX screws.
13. You may want to consider routing the connecting cable
through conduit and attaching the conduit to the RDC-1
(back or bottom hole). The hole size in the RDC-1 is
0.875”(7/8”).

O PERATING T HE D OOR C OM
™
W IRELESS I NTERCOM .....................................
INITIATING A CALL (Default is Automatic Turn-Off)
•Press and HOLD the PTT button to talk.
A unique Call Tone will be sent to radio-equipped personnel when the
PTT button is pressed. The Call Tone is also heard on the speaker at
the RDC-1.
•Begin speaking after the beep.
The caller should be 3 feet or less from the microphone.
•Release PTT button to listen.
RECEIVING A CALL
•Any return call from a radio will then be heard on the RDC-1 speaker.
NOTES:
•If a return call is not received within 10 seconds of releasing the PTT
button AND, there is no additional radio activity on the channel (the
Inactivity Rest Time Default is 10 seconds), the speaker on the RDC-
1 will sound a hi/low double-tone and then the speaker will turn off
automatically.
•If ENABLED (DoorCom™Time-Out Tone), the same distinct tones will
be transmitted to radio-equipped personnel to signal that the speaker
has turned off and internal communications can continue.
•No calls from radio-equipped personnel will be heard on the RDC-1
speaker. Pressing the PTT button on the RDC-1 again will turn the
speaker on and will resend the Call Tone.
The Automatic Turn-Off feature is designed to prevent eavesdropping at
the RDC-1 speaker.
System Range and Coverage
The typical range of the DoorCom™system is defined as: 1 floor,
350,000sq. ft.. Coverage depends on building structure and/or
surrounding typography. Concrete walls, steel, metal shelving, racks, etc.
can further reduce your coverage.
Site Survey: Before permanently installing the DoorCom™system, we
recommend that you conduct a site survey to determine the actual radio
coverage in your facility.
1. You will need two people to conduct the site survey: One person to
operate the DoorCom™system, the other person to walk the facility
with a compatible portable 2-way radio.
2. Temporarily position the DoorCom™system in or near the location it
will be mounted. Note: Locating the radio transceiver with antenna as
close as possible to the desired mounting location is critical to an
accurate site survey.
3. Apply power to the DoorCom™system and initiate a call to the other
2-way radio. Continue the conversation while the person with the
portable radio moves to a variety of locations in the facility.
4. If you are unable to achieve the desired coverage:
A. Try mounting the radio with the included antenna slightly higher.
Keep in mind the included connecting cable that connects the
radio to the external speaker intercom box is only 20ft in length.
B. If this is not successful, we offer the optional RAM-1545
magnetic mount antenna with a 25ft cable. This will allow you to
locate the antenna separately from the radio.
RADIO ALERT TONES
The radio responds to certain instructions by sounding a
beep or series of tones. These tones can tell you that the
radio is working as you expect.
Power on/Self Check “OK”
When power is applied to the radio, the radio will run a
quick “self test” to confirm basic functions. When
complete the radio will sound the Channel Beep and the
Channel Display will show the operating channel. The
radio is now ready for use.
Error Tones
If the “self test” detects a diagnostic error, an error tone
sounds. The error tone indicates the radio frequency
synthesizer is malfunctioning. Turn off the radio and try
again. The error tone will also sound if a channel has
been programmed with an invalid frequency.
A long, low pitched tone means the supply voltage is too
low to operate the radio. If you cannot correct the
problem, consult an authorized Ritron service center or
Ritron directly.
Transmit Time-Out Timer – (Default is 60 seconds)
If the PTT is pressed longer than the programmed
Transmit Time Out Timer time period, a low-tone
followed by a higher-pitched tone sounds and the
transmitter automatically shuts off.
OPTIONAL PROGRAMMABLE RADIO ALERT TONES
DoorCom™Time-Out Tone – Default is Enabled (FP)
If ENABLED, a distinct hi/low double-tone will be heard
on the speaker of the receiving portable radios. This
tone alerts radio-equipped staff that the DoorCom™
speaker has turned OFF and internal communication
can now continue.
Courtesy Beep – Default is Not Enabled – Requires PC
At the end of each received transmission, a short tone
will sound only on the RDC-1 speaker. This indicates
that the channel is clear and you may now transmit.
Busy Channel TX Inhibit – Default is Not Enabled –
Requires PC
When the PTT is pressed and another radio is
simultaneously transmitting on your radio frequency
without your tone, the radio will beep a series of long,
low tones (like a telephone busy signal) and you will not
be allowed to transmit.
Transmit Clear To Talk Beep – Default is Not Enabled -
- Requires PC
After the PTT has been pressed a short tone sounds on
the RDC-1 speaker. This indicates that the radio is ready
for you to begin talking.

E XPOSURE TO R ADIO F REQUENCY E NERGY ...........................................
These products generate radio frequency (RF) energy when the
ON/PTT button on the front of the unit is depressed. These
products have been evaluated for compliance with the maximum
permissible exposure limits for RF energy at the maximum power
rating of the unit when using antennas available from RITRON.
These products are not to be used by the general public in an
uncontrolled environment unless compliance with the Uncon-
trolled / General Population limits for RF exposure can be as-
sured.
Antennas other than those available from RITRON listed below
have not been tested for compliance and may or may not meet
the exposure limits at the distances given. Higher gain antennas
are capable of generating higher fields in the strongest part of
their field and would, therefore, require a greater separation from
the antenna.
R-446 Models: To comply with the General Population / Uncon-
trolled limits, all persons must be at least 8.7 inches (22 cm) from
the AFB-1545 antenna which is supplied by RITRON to be at-
tached directly to the rear of the unit. For the RITRON RAM-
1545 magnet mount antenna, which can be located away from
the unit, all persons must be at least 7.9 inches (20 cm) from the
antenna.
R-146 Models: To comply with the General Population / Uncon-
trolled limits, all persons must be at least 7.9 inches (20 cm) from
the AFB-1545 antenna which is supplied by RITRON to be at-
tached directly to the top of the unit. For the RITRON RAM-1545
magnet mount antenna, which can be located away from the
unit, all persons must be at least 10.8 inches (28 cm) from the
antenna. To limit exposure to RF energy to levels below the limit,
please observe the following:
•Use only the antenna(s) available from RITRON for these
models. DO NOT operate the radio without an antenna.
•Keep talk times as short and infrequent as possible. DO
NOT depress the ON/PTT button when not actually wishing
to transmit. These radios are equipped with an internal timer
to limit continuous transmit times.
•When transmitting, make certain that the distance limits for
the particular model in use are observed.
•DO NOT allow children to operate the radio. When used as
directed, this series of radios is designed to comply
with the FCC’s RF exposure limits for “Uncontrolled /
General Population”. In addition, they are designed to
comply with the following Standards and Guidelines:
•FCC OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01, Supplement C, Evalu-
ating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure
to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
•American National Standards Institute (C95.1-1992),
IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3
kHz to 300 GHz.
•American National Standards Institute (C95.3-1992), IEEE
Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially
Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields-RF and Microwave
Safety Standards
The FCC (with its action in General Docket 79-144, March 13,
1985) has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC
regulated equipment. Ritron observes these guidelines and
recommends that you do also:
• DO NOT hold the radio so that the antenna is very close to
or touching exposed parts of the body, especially the face
or eyes, while transmitting. Keep the radio vertical, eight
inches away while talking into the front panel.
• DO NOT press the Push-To-Talk except when you intend to
transmit.
• DO NOT operate radio equipment near electrical blasting
caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
• DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment
that contains a transmitting device.
• Repair of Ritron products should be performed only by
Ritron authorized personnel.

IMPORTANT: This warranty sets forth the full extent of RITRON’s express responsibilities regarding the covered products, and is given
in lieu of all other express warranties. What RITRON has agreed to do above is your sole and exclusive remedy. No person is
authorized to make any other warranty to you on behalf of RITRON. Warranties implied by state law, such as implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited to the duration of this limited warranty as it applies to the covered
product. Incidental and consequential damages are not recoverable under this warranty (this includes loss of use or time,
inconvenience, business interruption, commercial loss, lost profits or savings). Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, or limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations or exclusions may not
apply to you. Because each covered product system is unique, RITRON disclaims liability for range, coverage, or operation of the
system as a whole under this warranty.

for use, not resale. This warranty is not assignable or transferable.
