Wiring Diagram & System Configuration
The wiring chart below is for Video Intercom ONLY
Cable Configuration Chart
Please use the chart below to select the correct wiring diagram to support your installation. Please
ensure you also use the recommended Valet cable for the appropriate installation. Valet has many
years of experience in installations of both Audio and Video. The cable distance can often have a
detrimental impact on audio and video quality together with loss of voltage to critical operations.
We recommend the Valet 8 cable. This cable has 8 cores, 2 of which are shielded and should be used
for Audio / Video signals to protect both clarity of image and quality of audio. The other cores give
much greater flexibility for your installation and can be doubled up in long cable run distances to
ensure correct voltage and correct operation of electric door release signals.
If Upgrade Kit to CCTV/TV/Alarm Interface/Image is likely then Valet Smart Wire Composite must be used.
This ensures all Video signals are protected from interference as well as control voltage drop by pairing
for certain configurations.
Please see Upgrade Kit wiring chart and configuration guide.

System Power Supply
• Multiple Monitor Systems require an upgraded power supply. Please see below the recommended options
available from your local Valet Dealer.
• Each Monitor can use a separate single unit power pack or up to 8 monitors can be powered by a
multi-power supply to the Main monitor and then star wired to the other Monitors. Star wiring of a
multiple monitor system is the most effective method. A loop configuration is possible, but you need
to establish the formula of voltage drop as each monitor is looped ( effective transmission distance is
dramatically reduced in a loop configuration).
• Please see the recommended Valet Cable to ensure to optimise your cable network
• When fitting Electronic Door Releases or Latches please ensure you chose a model with it own power
supply. Your Valet SmartCentre Intercom delivers the open / close signal only.

SmartCentre Video Intercom Installation Instructions
Please see the relevant wiring diagram for the Smart Centre System you have chosen
and ensure you have the correct cable for that systems requirements.
Single Camera to Single Monitor Installations:
1.1 Determine both SmartCentre Monitor and Doorbell/Camera operating positions and
heights. ( Average height 1.5 to 1.6 Metres ).
1.2 Run the appropriate cable between the two positions allowing at least 350mm excess at
each location.
1.3 Ensure you run cable through the appropriate back boxes if fitted.
1.4 Unplug the connection terminal from the back of the monitor. ( Terminal J5).
1.5 Ensure power supply is disconnected at this point.
1.6 Connect cables as per the wiring diagram.
