FCC Information
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated
in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area may cause
harmful interference in which case the user
will be required to correct the interference at
his own expense.
INSTALLATION
Operation:
The VIP-172L provides door intercom access via
network connection to customer telephone
system or stand alone telephone set. Interface to
customer telephone system can be via SIP
registration or FXO port (with VIP-811). Pressing
the call button on the door plate initiates a call to
one of the above telephone system interfaces,
and the call assurance LED on the door plate
begins to flash. When the call is answered, a
hands-free communications path is established to
the door plate, and the call assurance LED on the
door plate changes to solid. At any time during
the call if the # key is pressed, the form C relay
on the door plate operates for 3 seconds for
activation of customer supplied door entry
equipment.
Mounting
For enhanced protection against static
electrical discharge, it is recommended the
faceplate shipped with the VIP-172L be
installed into a grounded electrical box.
The VIP-172L Doorplate is designed for double
gang FD electrical box mounting and must be
within 300 meters of the VIP-172L Network
Interface. See NEMA OS 3-2002 sec.1.2.3.5 for
FD box specifications.
The VIP-172L Network Interface is designed for
wall or table mounting and must be within 100
meters of the network switch.
Table: Provided with the VIP-172L are four
rubber stick on feet. Peel these feet off their
carrier backing and place at the four corners of
the bottom of the unit.
Wall: Using the template and wood screws
provided, secure the VIP-172L Network interface
to the wall.
Power Connections
The only method of powering a VIP-172L
Network Interface is via a power over Ethernet
switch or power injector meeting the 802.3af
specification.
Make all required signal connections before
connecting to Ethernet switch or power injector
meeting the 802.3af specification.
Network Connection
The VIP-172L Network Interface has one CAT-5
RJ-45 NETWORK connector and one CAT-5
RJ-45 DOOR PLATE connector on the front
panel.
Use the supplied CAT-5 patch cable to connect
the NETWORK connector of the VIP-172L
Network Interface to an Ethernet switch.
Signal Connections
Connect CAT-5 RJ-45 using EIA/TIA 568B
Standard to the DOOR PLATE connector of the
VIP-172L Network Interface then to the RJ-45
connector of the VIP-172L Door Plate.
Door Relay Connections
Access to the form C relay is provided via a three
pin screw terminal block on the VIP-172L Door
plate. The common contact is the middle
terminal with the normally open contact closest to
the RJ-45 Connector. Normally closed contact is
furthest from the RJ-45 connector. Relay contacts
are rated for 1A @ 24VDC.
Aux Input
Aux input on the VIP-172L Network Interface
accepts line level audio such as background
music and broadcasts it through the door plate
speaker. When the call button is pressed, the aux
input is muted and remains muted until the call is
terminated.
Status Indicator Lights
The VIP-172L Door plate is equipped with a
status indicator LED. LED flashes when the call
button is pressed and steady when the call is
connected.
The VIP-172L Network Interface has 3 status
indication lights on the side panel:
