Viking E-1600A-BLT-EWP Instructions for use

Many new building codes require emergency communication in elevators and “Area
of Refuge” sites. Now you can provide added safety for your patrons, employees,
and students with the addition of high visibility, ADA Compliant emergency commu-
nication. At the simple push of a button, the E-1600A-BLT-EWP will initiate a call to
your emergency personnel and send a digital announcement to identify the location
of the emergency call. In addition, the tower phone’s bright (1million candle power)
strobe light will instantly begin flashing to deter further activity and make it fast and
easy for Police or Security personnel to locate the site of the emergency.
Though the strobe requires external power to operate, rest assured that communi-
cation is possible, even during power failures! All phone numbers, location num-
bers and programming parameters are stored in non-volatile memory. No batteries
are required to hold the memory.
The E-1600A-BLT-EWP and E-1600A-BLT2-EWP are equipped for outdoor or
harsh environments with Enhanced Weather Protection (EWP). EWP features rub-
ber gaskets and boots, hand soldered silicon sealed connections, gel filled butt con-
nectors, as well as urethane potted circuit boards with internally sealed, field-
adjustable trim pots and DIP switches for easy on-site programming.

If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the prob-
lem is resolved.
Connection to Party Line Service is subject to State Tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission or corporation
commission for information.
WHEN PROGRAMMING EMERGENCY NUMBERS AND (OR) MAKING TEST CALLS TO EMERGENCY NUMBERS:
Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call. Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morn-
ing or late evenings.
It is recommended that the customer install an AC surge arrester in the AC outlet to which this device is connected. This is to avoid damaging the
equipment caused by local lightning strikes and other electrical surges.
PART 15 LIMITATIONS
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 lim-
its 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 is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
FCC REQUIREMENTS
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the side of this equipment is a label that
contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the tele-
phone company.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive REN's on a telephone line may result
in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of the REN's should not exceed five (5.0) To be cer-
tain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total REN's, contact the local telephone company. For prod-
ucts approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits
represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.
The plug used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of
this E-1600A-BLT-EWP or E-1600A-BLT2-EWP does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equip-
ment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
If the E-1600A-BLT-EWP or E-1600A-BLT2-EWP causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that
temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon
as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment.
If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make the necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupt-
ed service.

B. Ring Cadence Mode
DIP switch 2is used for switching between different ring detection modes. In the OFF position, the strobe light and
relay will activate only while ring voltage is present and will turn off between rings. In the ON position, the strobe light
and relay will remain on for up to 5.75 seconds after the ringing has stopped. This allows the strobe light and relay to
remain on between rings of a standard ring cadence. Note: To use the Ring Cadence Mode, ring detection MUST be
enabled (DIP switch 1- ON).
D. Disable Feature
The “Disable” input can be connected to a switch for remotely disabling/turning off the strobe light and the device con-
trolled by the auxiliary contacts (camera, etc.).
C. Relay Contacts
Normally open and normally closed relay contacts are available on the orange, purple and yellow wires. The contacts
are rated at .5A @ 125VAC/1A @ 30VDC. If contacts are driving an inductive load, place a suppression device at the
load to snub high voltage spikes.

2. Loop/Off-hook Indication Only
Place DIP switch 1 OFF and DIP switch 3 ON. In this configuration, the E-1600A-BLT-EWP will only flash the strobe
light while off-hook (while the emergency phone is in use).
1. Ring Indication Only
Place DIP switch 2on the 1600A emergency phone board in the OFF position (not shown in the diagram - see
1600A Emergency Phone Board Programming section J). Note: With DIP switch 2in the OFF position, the
1600A emergency phone board will not answer an incoming call. The LDB-3 control module can monitor for ring-
ing any place along the ringing line. Place DIP switch 1 ON and DIP switch 3 OFF.
3. Both Ring and Loop/Off-hook Indication
If the application requires ring and loop/off-hook indication, place DIP switch 1and 3in the ON position.

H. Recording the Announcement
I. Automating the Call Connected LED
There are two methods of turning on the Call Connected LED. The LED will turn on after a Touch Tone ,is detected
from the distant party or after the voice announcer is finished playing a programmed number of times. If you want the
Call Connected LED to light automatically when the call has been answered, but you don’t want a voice announcement
to be played, follow these programming steps:
Step 1:
Access Programming as shown in section A
Step 3:
Enter digits: 001000#17
Step 2:
Make a short (1 second) recording of silence
Step 1. Call into the 1600A series phone with a Touch Tone phone and access programming.
Step 2. Enter ,4, wait for the tone and then begin recording. Sixteen seconds of record time is available.
Step 3. Enter any Touch Tone to stop the recording. Playback is automatic.
Step 4. Enter ,5to review the announcement again.
Step 5. If you choose to not use a voice announcement, enter ,3to clear the recording.
Example: “Elevator number 1215, located in the Financial Building, needs assistance. Press the asterisk (,) key on
your telephone to start and stop this announcement...”
The 1600A can be programmed to play the announcement from 1-9 times,
or to continuously repeat the announcement every 8 seconds until a
Touch Tone ,is detected from the distant party. The I.D. number (if pro-
grammed) will be sent and the call connected LED will turn on automati-
cally after the announcement has stopped repeating.
* Note: The factory default for the 1600A series phone is to repeat until a
, is detected (digit 0).

The 1600A Series phone can be programmed to dial a central station receiver only, or dial up to 5 voice num-
bers first, and if no answer, then dial the central station receiver. When calling the first numbers (memory posi-
tions #00-#04 (see Programming section D), the phone stays in “two-way talk mode” allowing two-way con-
versation. When calling the Central Station number (memory position #05), the phone is in a “listen only mode”
in order to interpret the hand shake signals of the receiver.
A second central station number position has been provided in
location #06 that is used when the central station receiver does
not have a talk over mode. If a number is placed in position
#05 and position #06 is cleared, the E-1600A will call the cen-
tral station monitor receiver. One or two alarm messages can
be sent to the receiver (see Operation section B, note 3). After
the receiver sends a kiss-off, the E-1600A lights the “Call
Connected” LED and goes into two-way talk mode. If numbers
are in both positions #05 and #06, the E-1600A will call the
receiver first, and after the kiss-off, will hang-up and redial the
number in position #06 for two-way voice communication
Notes: If only a central station is to be dialed, the central sta-
tion phone number must be preprogrammed in memory loca-
tion #05 and memory locations #00-#04 must be cleared.

b. Enabling/Disabling Central Station Mode
The 1600A Series emergency phone can be placed in the “Central Station Mode” by entering a central station
phone number in position #05 while programming. To cancel the “Central Station Mode,” clear position #05 by
entering #05 only (see Programming section D).
c. Ring No Answer
When the 1600A Series emergency phone is in the “Central Station Mode”, it is best to have the ring no answer
set to a minimum of three, because some receivers send a long tone after answering the line that sounds like
a ring back. If the 1600A is set to a ring no answer of two, the phone will disconnect (see Programming
section F).
a. Accessing the Programming Mode
Before programming, you must access the programming mode (see Programming section A).

The following examples explain the receiver formats and how to properly program memory location #20. Each for-
mat starts with a four digit account code. This is the code that is assigned by your central station for billing purpos-
es. You must access the programming mode before programming these features (see Programming section A).
Important: If a number is shown, you must use that number. If an “X” is shown, use any appropriate number.
Note: A second information alarm message can be sent to the receiver, for any receiver that requires two separ-
rate messages. The second alarm message is programmed in #21 location. For additional information about the
second alarm mesage, see Operation section B.

PB-100 Polling and Diagnostics Kit
The PB-100 system provides centralized polling and diagnostics of all Viking
1600 and 1600A series emergency phones through a standard Windows 9x/NT
P.C. In addition, any device or human capable of returning DTMF Touch Tones
can be automatically polled.
Up to 500 individual phones can be polled, at timed intervals, for the diagnosis
of proper programming and operation. The included software provides storage
of complete contact/location records associated with the phones ID. Devices
that are polled successfully are stored in a "success" log while devices that
returned any kind of error are stored in a "failure" log.

A. Standard Operation
1. “HELP” / “CALL” Button
When the “HELP” / “CALL” button is pressed, the 1600A series phone goes off-hook and dials a pre-programmed
telephone number. The Call Connected LED momentarily flashes during tone or pulse dialing. In the event that the
line is busy or there is a ring-no-answer, the unit can be programmed to call additional phone numbers. The phone
then cycles through up to 5 pre-programmed emergency numbers until the call is answered. When the call is
answered, handsfree communication to emergency personnel is established. The digital voice announcer will auto-
matically play to identify the location of the emergency call. The ,key will stop the announcement, send the I.D.
number (if programmed) and light the “Call Connected” LED. Alternatively, the phone can be programmed to auto-
matically light the “Call Connected” LED after the announcement has played a programmed number of times. The
distant party will know the location of the emergency call by either the voice announcement or by decoding the
Touch Tone I.D. number. Pressing the ,key again will send the I.D. number and play the message again. Once
the ,key has been pressed, the #key can be used to force the phone to hang-up.

Op pe er ra at ti io on n
2. “INFO” Button (E-1600A-BLT2-EWP only)
When the “INFO” button is pressed (E-1600A-BLT2-EWP only), the phone goes off-hook and dials the first “INFO”
phone number programmed. If a busy signal is detected or the call goes unanswered, the phone will cycle through
all three “INFO” phone numbers until the call is answered. When answered, handsfree communication is estab-
lished. Note: The voice announcement is for Emergency/Help calls only and will not play on a call initiated from
the “INFO” button.
B. Central Station Operation
After the “HELP” / “CALL” button on the 1600A Series phone has been pressed the 1600A Series phone will begin to
dial. If a voice number is programmed in memory locations #00-#04, these numbers will be dialed first. Upon detect-
ing a busy signal or after a preprogrammed ring delay the 1600A Series phone will hang-up and dial the central sta-
tion phone number stored in memory location #05. When the central station receiver answers, it will send a handshake
tone to the 1600A phone. Upon detecting the handshake tone, the 1600A Series phone will begin uploading the infor-
mation stored in memory location #20.
Once the 1600A Series emergency phone has sent the information stored in memory location #20, it waits for a “kiss-
off” tone from the central station. When the “kiss-off” tone is received, the emergency phone turns on the call connect-
ed LED and goes into the “two-way talk mode” or hangs up and dials position #06 if programmed (see Note 3 below).
Notes:
1. The central station should have a “talk-over” feature that will allow a two-way conversation at this time. If your receiver does not support “talk-
over”, a voice phone number should be programmed into position #06.
2. If the central station answers the call, sends the handshake tone, but does not send a “kiss off” tone after the information is sent, the 1600A
resends the information three additional times, waiting for a “kiss-off” after each attempt. If “kiss-off” has not been received after the fourth attempt,
the 1600A hangs up and dials position #05 again.
3. The 1600A has the capability to send a second informational message to the receiver after the first “kiss-off” is received, but only if a second
informational message is stored in memory location #21. After the first “kiss-off” is received, the 1600A sends the information stored in memory loca-
tion #21. It then waits for a second “kiss-off” from the central station receiver. When the second “kiss-off” is received, the emergency phone turns on
the call connected LED and goes into the “two-way talk mode” or hangs up and dials position #06 if programmed.

Provide Strobe Light Indication of Line Status
Ideal for Use with Two-Button Emergency Phones!
The BLK-3-EWP provides high visibility indication of analog line status through a high pow-
ered one million candle power strobe light. The BLK-3-EWP is the ideal solution for the hear-
ing impaired and can be used equally well in loud warehouses or factories, where ringing
phones can not be heard. Alternatively, the BLK-3-EWP can be used to add emergency noti-
fication to pre-existing emergency phones by turning on the strobe light when the emergency
phone is in use.
The control module can be installed on any standard telephone line or analog PABX/KSU sta-
tion. The 1 million candle power strobe can be interfaced to flash on ringing, off-hook or a
combination of ringing and off-hook (line in-use). The LDB-3 ring/loop detect control module
is also available separately.
A Smart Line Sharing Device with Inbound Switching Capability
Why pay for a dedicated line for your elevator/emergency phone or alarm panel?
The LSD-2 Line Sharing Device allows the user to share an existing phone line with
an emergency phone or other priority alarm device. This can save hundreds of dollars
a year over leasing a dedicated phone line. The LSD-2 can be used on any C.O. line
or analog PABX/KSU station.
An outbound call on the DEVICE 2 (PRIORITY) port takes priority over a call in
progress on the DEVICE 1 port. Any call in progress on the DEVICE 1 port will be dis-
connected for 2 seconds, returning dial tone to the DEVICE 2 (PRIORITY) port. A busy
signal is then sent to the DEVICE 1 port.
For incoming calls, the LSD-2 can route calls to the DEVICE 2 (PRIORITY) port using Caller ID, Distinctive Ring, or Quick
Call Back. All other calls will be routed to the DEVICE 1. Alternatively, the LSD-2 can be set up so that all inbound calls
are routed to the DEVICE 2 (PRIORITY) port. Note: Caller ID is not passed through the LSD-2 to the devices.
