!
Do not connect any damaged device (e.g. damage in transit).
Repairs to the equipment must only be performed by specialists.
!
Remove the mains adapter from the mains outlet when the device
is not required for a longer time.
!
This system transmits and receives radio-frequency signals. If the
system is not installed and used according to the instructions it
may cause interference with other apparatus and just as other
apparatus may interfere with the system. Interference can be
reduced by repositioning the system.
7. Location of equipment
Before fitting the outdoor station, plan where you want it to go. Check
the wireless connection, the intercom function as well as the image
section before fitting.
Observe the following points:
Outdoor station:
!
Mount the outdoor station at such a height that visitors can
comfortably reach the doorbell button and that the face of the
person ringing the bell is in the field of view of the camera. Pay
attention to the height of children in doing so. The vertical field
of view of the camera is approx. 53°.
!
The outdoor station is usually installed at the side of the
entrance door. Ensure that the face of a visitor standing in front
of the door can be seen on the monitor. The horizontal field of
view of the camera is approx. 96°.
!
A bracket for 45° corner fitting on the right or left is available as
an option (see "Optional accessories" section).
!
Position the outdoor station so that no direct light or sunshine
falls on the lens. Avoid strong back lighting behind the visitor: in
this case, the person appears darker on the image. Check the
camera image before mounting. Provisionally connect and
commission the device and hold the outdoor station in the
desired position. If necessary, change the position until you have
found the desired view. Remember that the position of the sun
changes.
!
The camera has white illumination [22] for the close range. This is
activated at dark. You can improve the quality of the image at
night by using additional illumination
!
If you want to install the outdoor station outdoors, it must be
protected against direct rainfall. If operating with the power
supply unit, the unit must be positioned indoors.
!
If operating with the power supply unit, ensure that there is a
suitable option for feeding the power supply cable through (use a
connection cable with a wire cross-section of 0.2 - 0.7 mm²) and,
if required, for the connection cables to the optional door release /
optional button / optional external signal generator at the point of
installation.
!
If you wish to connect a door release and/or a signal generator,
note the power supply:
32 - GB
If the outdoor station is powered by the mains adapter:
#
a door release and/or a signal generator (e.g. an external
bell) with a current consumption of max. 1 A at up to 15 V AC
or DC can bei connected via its own power supply (see fig. B).
#
a door release and/or a signal generator with a current
consumption of max. 500 mA at up to 12 V DC can bei
powered by the the mains adapter of the outdoor station (see
fig. C).
If the outdoor station is powered with batteries:
#
a door release and/or a signal generator (e.g. an external
bell) with a current consumption of max. 500 mA at up to 12
V AC can bei connected via its own power supply (see fig. D).
Monitor:
!
Place the monitor on the wall in a central position in the dwelling,
eg. in the hallway. Alternatively, it can be placed on a flat and
solid surface using the supplied stand.
!
Make sure that the chime can be heard throughout the dwelling.
If this is not the case, additional monitors or mobile units can be
connected (see chapter 19).
!
Mount the monitor at face level so that you can view the screen.
When determining the mounting height, take into account the
height of all occupants, including children.
!
Note that there must be a suitable power outlet within reach of
the mains adapter cable. If necessary, use the extension cable
[43].
Wireless range
With free line of sight between outdoor station and monitor, a
maximum wireless range of up to 100 -150 m is possible, within
buildings this is reduced by walls (especially reinforced concrete
walls) to maybe 20 m.
The range cannot be guaranteed as it is dependent on the local
conditions.
In order to avoid malfunctions, only one wireless system should be fitted
for each monitoring location/building/home.
A reduction of the range will be caused by:
#
Walls and floors, in particular those of metal or with metal
reinforcement
#
Sheet metal surfaces e.g. refrigerator, metal shelves, radiators
#
Coated windows (eg. those with Insulating glass)
#
Strong electric fields and other radio equipment, e.g. microwave
ovens, radio telephones, mobile phones, radio equipment in the 2.4
GHz range, electric motors and power cables
#
Devices using the same or similar frequency (e.g. WLAN-systems)
#
Weather conditions (rain, fog etc.)
#
Major obstacles outdoors
