Terminology
In order to logically and easily understand Welcome system for installation, terminologies are defined below with illustrations . It
is strongly recommended to read them first before other chapters.
Insulated system
The insulated system is a system in which all devices are
managed by one system controller and isolated by a gateway
if get networked. The operation within an insulated system will
work independently and not interrupt other insulated systems.
This is an important concept, both power consumption and
distance calculation are made based on the insulated system.
Fig.1
Branch connection
Branch connection is a connection layout of devices. With
the branch connection, the same type of devices are not
connected with each other like looping connection, sometimes
an additional device, such as a video indoor distributor is
needed. Usually, the branch connection of indoor stations
or gateways is coexisting with looping connection of video
distributor.
Common part
The common part is the bus of the networked system —the
insulated system where gate station, gateway (only the part
out of building) and other related system devices are installed.
System C is a typical networked system where the system
controller manages the gate station, guard unit and gateways.
Fig.1
Building part
The building part is the bus of the individual building system
System B is a typical branch connection where the indoor
stations are connected by branch and video indoor
distributors are needed with looping connecting.
Internal bus
Fig.2
Fig.1
The system controller supplies the other bus subscribers
with voltage and controls communication on the 2-wire bus.
Starting from the system controller, the 2-wire bus is divided
into 2 parts — the internal bus and external bus.
— the insulated system where the outdoor station and indoor
stations and other related system devices are installed.
The internal bus is the bus for controlling devices of indoors
or sub insulated system devices. In the building system, it
System A and B are typical building systems where the system
controller manages the outdoor station, gateway, video indoor
distributor, and audio/video indoor stations.

Looping connection
Looping connection is a connection layout of devices. With the
looping connection, the same type of devices are connected
one after another. The device can be indoor station, video
distributor or gateway.
System A shows the looping connection of audio indoor
stations in one building, and system C shows the looping
connection of gateway (the ones inside the building) in a
networked system.

Apartment system
For multi-insulated systems with multi-system controllers,
when an insulated system is for an apartment, this is called
apartment system.
Fig.3
A group of villas/single-families linking into a networked
system can also be taken as one form of apartment system.
Fig.4
The gateway address is set subsequently one upon another
while no addressing is needed at the indoor station.
Floor system
For multi-insulated systems with multi-system controllers,
when an insulated system for a building oor that contains
several apartments ( for example on a oor ) , this is called oor
system.
Fig.5
A group of multi-family buildings linking into a networked
system can also be taken as one form of oor system.
Fig.6
Video system
For insulated system with only one system controller, in
addition to the transmission of the control information, the
audio signal as well as the video signal is transmitted on a
2-wire bus, it is video system.
The right insulated system of Fig.6 (system B) is a typical
video system.
For video systems, at least one video outdoor station should
be present, the indoor station can be purely audio or at least
one video indoor station.
Outdoor stations
Like one person may have different roles such as father,
employee, etc., the outdoor station can be named differently
when installed in different places. When no specific referring
to certain installing environment, it is called outdoor station
as a general.
Apartment system for apartments
Fig.5
Floor system for apartments in a floor
Apartment system for a group of villas
The gateway address should be set based on the address of
the rst indoor station managed by this gateway.
Building system
For multi-insulated systems with multi-system controllers,
when an insulated system is for one building, this is called
building system. A high-rise building with more than 250
apartments breaking down into several parts and being able
to be called from the same gate station can also be taken as
one form of building system.
Fig.7
The gateway address is set subsequently one upon another.
Audio system
For insulated system with only one system controller, in
addition to the control information(unlock), only audio signal is
transmitted on a 2-wire bus, it is audio system.
The left insulated system of Fig. 6 (system A) is a typical audio
system.
Neither video outdoor station nor video indoor station will be
present in audio systems.
When the outdoor station is installed in the door of an
apartment or villa, it is called apartment/villa outdoor station.
When the outdoor station is installed in the door for several
apartments on that floor, it is called floor outdoor station.
When the outdoor station is installed in the door for one
building, it is called building outdoor station.
When the outdoor station is installed in a general entrance for
the residential complexes, it is called gate station.
Parallel outdoor stations
With one system controller, when several outdoor stations are
connected (with different addresses set), it is called parallel
outdoor stations.
Parallel indoor stations
When several indoor stations are set as the same address for
one apartment (expect apartment system), it is called parallel
indoor stations.
While for apartment system, parallel indoor stations use
different addresses, such as the case on page 60 Fig.74.

with more than 250 apartments or residential complex.
Single-family house, audio/video
Welcome system consists at minimum of a system controller,
outdoor station and indoor station. In Fig.1 three indoor
stations are installed in one house. When a visitor rings the
bell at the video outdoor station, the call can be answered
at either the 4,3" video hands-free indoor station, the 4,3"
handset video indoor station, or the audio indoor station.
Fig.8
Multi-family building, audio
Retrofitting a Welcome system in a multi-family house with
existing wiring is very easy. Even a plain bell system can be
converted to audio or video system. Depending on the local
circumstances, an installation with recourse to a rising mains,
as shown in Fig.2, is recommended. The wires branch off
on each floor where the existing apartments are located –
to where an audio indoor station with handset is mounted.
There the user can answer incoming calls, open the
pedestrian door and the garage door. Also door bell buttons
can be used. These are connected to the indoor station.

The setup of a video system or a combined audio/video
system can include an existing rising mains. To correctly
distribute the video image of the outdoor station inside the
house, video distributors are installed in each branch box.
Once one system controller can not cover all the power
consumption of the devices, additional power supply in the
bus should be added by the combination of gateway and
system controller.
01 Examples of typical
system
Group of villas, audio/video
For a group of villas/single-family houses, a gate station can
be equipped as the main entrance. The gateway installed in
each villa/single-family ensures the independent operation of
each villa/single-family and links the whole group as a

Planning
Either by providing an all-round and easy-to-understand table to
grasp all the possibilities of the combination of outdoor station,
indoor station and system device, or by supplying a few simple
rules for flexible topology and power consumption and distance
calculation to meet the project requirement, this makes even
complex projects easy to manage and easy to implement at a
later stage.
In most cases, the existing lines can be used. The universally
used 2-wire bus technology allows a bell system to be
upgraded to a video system with outdoor camera.
Welcome system can be set up with one system controller or
with multi-system controllers. For both types, every system
controller makes an insulated system.
For each insulated system, it can be exclusively an audio
system. In the building part, visitors and residents use it to
communicate between audio outdoor stations and audio
indoor stations. In the common part, if a guard unit is
present, the visitor and guard can communicate with each
other.
The insulated system can also be a video system.
This makes the camera image of the video outdoor station
visible at the video indoor stations in the building part, or
image of video gate station visible at the guard units in the
common part.

System capacity
2.1 Capacity of Welcome system
The system capacity is determined by the valid address number of the devices. Two kinds of addressing are used in Welcome
system:
Independent addressing and combined addressing.
»
For independent addressing, the devices' addresses are independent in the common part and in the building part.
»
For combined addressing, the total address number of the devices in every building and the devices in common part-should
be less than a certain value.

2.2 Selection of the modular outdoor station
Welcome provides a wide range of outdoor stations with pushbutton by the combination of the modules, covers and boxes.
Fig.16
Composition of an pushbutton outdoor station
Audio pushbutton outdoor station composition
Composition of pushbutton outdoor station
For pushbutton outdoor stations, it multiples the application
by setting as one column or double column for the same
pushbutton module. The setting is made by the audio
modules. We call the different pushbutton status "single row"
or "double row". 3-row pushbutton and 4-row pushbutton are
optional for application. For pushbutton outdoor stations, to
compose an outdoor station, audio module (with no
pushbutton, with 1-row pushbutton or 2-row pushbutton),
pushbutton module (3-row pushbutton or 4-row pushbutton),
cover frame and flush mounted boxes are compulsory. If
surface mounting is required, a rain hood is needed.
Fig.16
There is a quick composition table for pushbutton outdoor
station on page 21-24. Please follow the guide below and
refer to the table to choose the articles for the desired
pushbutton outdoor station.
Step 1: Audio or video?
Please refer to page 21-22 for audio pushbutton outdoor station
and page 23-24 for video pushbutton outdoor station.
Step 2: 3-row pushbutton or 4-row pushbutton?
Please refer to the 3-row pushbutton or 4-row pushbutton
table for different pushbuttonapplication.
»
It is technically possible but esthetically, inconsistent
for combining audio module with pushbutton and 3-row
pushbutton module. For better appearance as an outdoor
station, the composition of pushbuttons follows the rule that
every pushbutton should have the same height. Thus if 3-row
pushbutton module is used, audio module with pushbutton
and 4-row pushbutton module are not recommended.
Please decide whether single row or double row pushbutton
is needed, then please turn to the button ranges to quickly
locate the possible composition.
»
In case the light and call guard functions are required for
the outdoor station, then the total buttons should be the
combination of the apartment no. and button number for
extra functions.
»
In case it is not sure whether single or double pushbuttons
for one row is optimal, it is also possible to turn to the
pushbutton range to see all the possibilities.
Step 4: Choose the right composition by balancing the cost
and esthetics
»
There may be more than one possibility of compositing
outdoor station in certain cases by choosing 3-row
pushbutton module or 4-row pushbutton module, choosing
a nameplate module or not and setting as single row or
double row for the same pushbutton module. It is advised to
consider the cost and esthetics together when making the
composition decision.

Options of keypad outdoor station
For condominium buildings and residential complexes, it is
recommended to choose keypad outdoor station.
Keypad with pure audio module outdoor station

System device selection
2.4 Selection of system devices
It’s important to select the appropriate system devices to set up a Welcome system. Both function of the devices and
topology for the application needs to be considered. System controller is a must for any insulated system; other system devices
can be selected to meet the specific project requirement.
Fig.42
Application of system controller, local power supply and auxiliary power supply
System controller, local power supply and auxiliary power
supply
System controller provides both power and communication
command for a Welcome system. An extension of the system
controller, auxiliary power supply and local power supply serve
as the supplement to provide a flexible power solution to meet
the requirement of all kinds of Welcome system. The illustration
shown is a project case using three power sources.
Fig.42
System controller
Working as the "brain“ of all devices, a system controller is
compulsory and exclusive in any insulated system. It not only
provides power, but also manages all the communication and
control between outdoor stations and indoor stations in the
building part,and between gate stations and the gateway in
the common part.
For those systems with multi-system illustration shown be
broken down into several insulated systems and every
insulated system needs separate power consumption and
distance limit calculation.
Both standard system controllers and mini system controllers
are provided to meet different project needs.
The system controller has two working modes: “all on” and
“one on”, "all on" and "one on" are system behavior for screen
switching on for the indoor stations with the same address
(parallel indoor stations) in case of being called. Under "all
on", the master video indoor station and other slave video
indoor station(s) will all switch on the screens and ring at the
same time upon being called from the outdoor stations or
gate stations. Under "one on", only the "master" video indoor
station will switch on the screen and ring, the other "slave"
video indoor station(s) will ring but will not switch on the
screen.
Fig.43
Power units of system controller
As system controller will provide the power for the system, it
is important to calculate the available power unit of standard
system controller or mini system controller for the system
before application.
For a 2-wire system, the available power unit of a system
controller needs to take the situation of 1 or ≥2 apartments
into consideration firstly.
To achieve a comfortable door communication experience in
applications, different value of working power will always be
reserved first to handle the simultaneous working of different
devices(door call, setting, door bell) before allocated to the
standby devices.
Since the power calculation is based on the remaining standby
current after subtracting the varied reserved working current
in 1 or ≥2 apartments, thus, the power units of system
controller varies when the system contains 1 or ≥2
apartments, which has been revealed in Table 1 (page 62 ).
Moreover, the "all on" and "one on" mode setting will impact
the power consumer calculation when one apartment contains
more than one video indoor station(parallel indoor stations).
As we can see from the power and distance table in Table
1 on page 62, for one additional video 4.3" indoor station
when the system controller is under "all on" mode, 23 more
consumer units should be counted, while only 11 consumer
units are counted when system controller is under "one on"
mode. In the real project, the balance can be made between
cost and comfort.

Local power supply for parallel indoor stations
Local power supply
Local power supply and system controller are exactly the
same devices, but they are named differently because of the
different functions they serve.
»
Local power supply only provides the pure power source
without giving communication commands like the system
controller.
»
Unlike the system controller or auxiliary power supply that
provides the power for all the devices in the external and
internal bus line through the 2-wire bus terminal, local
power supply provides the pure power to individual
devices directly by connecting the local power supply
terminals.
»
Devices below contain local power supply terminals, and
can be powered by local power supply:
»
Audio module of outdoor station
»
4.3” video handset/hands-free indoor station
»
Guard unit
Despite the physical product is like system controller, the
working mode setting of local power supply is useless .
Power units of local power supply
One mini local power supply can feed
»
Up to 4 pcs of parallel 4.3" video hands-free indoor station
»
Up to 4 pcs of parallel 4.3" video handset indoor station
»
Up to 4 pcs of parallel guard units
»
1 pc of any kind of pushbutton outdoor station
»
1 pc of any kind of keypad outdoor station
:
Even though one standard local power supply doubles the
capacity compared to one mini local power supply, the user
will not need it.
The increased number of devices can be the increased quantities
of apartments in one building or the increased quantities of
parallel indoor stations within one apartment.
Based on the calculation rule in Table 1 (page 62), specifically,
for scenarios below when the power units of one system
controller is smaller than required consumer units of devices,
local power supply is highly recommended. This is due to the
fact that compared to auxiliary power supply, local power
supply solution will be less cost and easier wiring:
»
When the total consumer units of external and internal
bus > power unit of system controller, while the total
consumer units of the devices on internal bus ≤ power
unit of system controller, one or all outdoor stations
should be powered by local power supply.
»
When feeding the local power supply to parallel slave 4.3"
video hands-free or 4.3" video handset indoor station(s),
the total power consumer units will become≤power units
of system controller.
»
When feeding the local power supply to guard unit, the
total power consumer units will become ≤power units of
system controller.
»
When adding the parallel 4.3" video hands-free or 4.3"
Fig.45
video handset indoor station to an apartment after the door
communication system installation had been finished in the
past. Since the additional device might cause the system
controller to inadequately cover the increased consumer
units, it is safe to put local power supply to additional 4.3"
indoor station to that certain apartment without affecting
the existing power solution.
Fig.46
Fig.45
Feed parallel 4.3” video indoor stations by mini local power supply
Note:
1. Standard system controller “all on” mode, supports 1 outdoor
station + 5 parallel 4.3” video hands-free indoor stations
2. Mini local power supply, feeds 4pcs 4.3 video hands-free indoor

Note:
1. Standard system controller “all on” mode, supports 1 outdoor
station + 3 parallel 7” video hands-free indoor stations
2. Mini local power supply, feeds 4pcs 4.3 video hands-free indoor
stations
For parallel 4.3” video indoor stations in one apartment, the
screen of any one fed by local power supply will always be
on for incoming calls,even in “one on” setting in system
controller.
Fig.44
When the device is fed by local power supply, it requires rather
small power consumer unit from the system controller. Which
is shown in Table 1 on page 62. The saved power of system
controller can be used to increase the number of devices under
this system controller.

Auxiliary power supply
For one insulated system, when adding the local power
supply to the devices in external bus or internal bus, if both
ways still cannot cover the required consumption units of the
devices, auxiliary power supply is suggested. The combination
of gateway (under auxiliary power supply mode) and system
controller will make an auxiliary, which can be used to split the
system into two insulated systems.
Fig.47
Like system controller, the "all on" and "one on" mode setting
will impact the power consumption calculation in parallel
indoor stations.
Power units of auxiliary power supply
The Table 1-2 on page 63 can be used to count devices
powered by auxiliary power supply. To have an easy reference
please checkTable 3-2, Table 3-3 and Table 3-4 on page
77-78, the capacity of both mini auxiliary power supply and
standard auxiliary power supply are counted in.
Gateway
For the system with multi-system controllers, gateway is
needed to make each insulated system(managed by one
system controller) interact with devices installed in the
common part.
Gateway offers high level flexibility for application with 5
different working modes. The modes of gateway can be set as
below:
» Building gateway
»Floor gateway
» Apartment gateway
»Auxiliary power supply
»Line amplifier
For the setting of the working mode of gateway, please refer
to page 98 in Chart 04.
Building gateway mode
Building gateway is mainly applied to building systems, which
enables one building to be an independent sub insulated
system within a residential complex. Each building supports
up to 250 apartments.
Fig.48
Or it can be used for a building with more than 250
apartments by making 2 insulated building systems for this

building gateway should be set one upon another in sequence
from 1 to 60.

Apartment gateway mode
Fig.52
Apartment gateway is mainly applied to apartment systems,
which enable an apartment with a second confirmed outdoor
station to be an independent sub insulated system within the
building.
Also it can be used for the application of a group of villas/
single family houses in a residential complex. It supports 99
such systems for application. The address of apartment
gateway should be set one upon another in sequence from 1
to 99.
Auxiliary power supply mode
The system controller must combine the gateway set as
auxiliary power supply mode to feed the system with extra
power. The additional system controller is used to split the
system into two insulated systems.
There is no need to set address for auxiliary power supply.
Line amplifier mode
Line amplifier is used to extend the distance of signal when
it is not enough. The distance extended by one amplifier will
vary according to cable type.
Please refer to page 64 Table 2-3 for the distance calculation.
The position to install the amplifier is recommended at the
end of the maximum distance of the cable.
Fig.53
Example:
A project of a residential complex with 10 buildings, looped
through with 10 building gateways, whose wiring distance
from gate station to last building is 300m, cable RVV, Ø=1mm
is used.
User case analysis:
The attenuation units of the 10 building gateways are 15 units
(1.5 unit x10). If with cable RVV, Ø=1mm, according to the
Table 2-3, the max. distance can be counted as 170m, which
is <300m.
Solution:
One gateway in amplifier mode is needed to split into section
A and section B.

Section B is from 5th building
to 10th building, the attenuation
unit is 7.5 unit (1.5 unit x 5), the
max. distance is 180 m, ≥ the
real distance 150m
So the solution is to install the gateway as line amplifier mode
at 6th building for maximum use of cable.
There is no need to set address for line amplifier.

Power consumption units of gateway
Maximum quantity limitation of gateway pass through to
an apartment
Noted: a maximum of 4 gateways can be passed through to
any apartment, regardless of the mode of gateway, except this
combination:building gateway + floor gateway + apartment
gateway. (The looping of gateway is not counted)
For example, for building n
Fig.54
»For floor 1 and floor 2, total 3 gateways
»For floor 10, up to 4 gateways, which is the maximum
For each building, a maximum of 2 gateways for each
apartment is allowed, either building gateway + floor gateway,
building gateway + apartment gateway, or floor gateway +
apartment gateway. It is not allowed building gateway + floor
gateway + apartment gateway. So for floor 10, it is not
allowed to have apartment gateway.
Power consumption units of gateway
For gateway except when it is set as line amplifier mode, the
consumption unit is divided into two parts: the one provided
by the internal bus of system controller of one insulated
system , and the other part provided by the external bus of
system controller of the sub insulated system (if any).
Fig.55
When set as line amplifier mode, the power consumption is
provided independently by the system controller that controls it.
Please refer to page 62 for Table 1-1 of power
consumption and distance calculation. The power
consumption need to be calculated distinctively by
the mode:
»When it is set as building gateway, floor gateway, apartment
gateway and auxiliary power supply mode, the total
consumption is 7 units, with 2 units (C1) from internal bus
of system controller of the insulated system and 5 units
(C2) from external bus of system controller from system
controller of the other connected insulated system.
»When it is set as line amplifier mode, the consumption unit
is 5 from the system controller that controls it.
Attenuation unit of gateway
For looping through of one gateway regardless of the mode,
1.5 attenuation unit will be consumed.

Fig.56
As the function implementation device of the indoor station or
outdoor station or guard unit, switch actuator can be installed
in the internal bus or external bus in both building part and
common part. Different modes can be set to realize different
functions.
»If installing within the apartment, it can be used to extend
the call to a bell or a light (switch on for a period of time
when it is called). The address of the switch actuator and
the indoor station should be configured to be the same.
This is called "Call repetition mode".
Fig.56-1
»If installing the switch actuator in the common part to
connect a lock or a light, it can be controlled by any indoor
station, guard unit or outdoor station in the whole system.
If installing it within a building, only the devices of the given
building can control it.
For all these scenarios:
»If the "unlock" button of indoor station or guard unit
controls the connected lock, the switch actuator address
should be set as the address of outdoor station which
the lock is associated with. This is called "Door opener
mode".
Fig.56-2
»If the lock or light will be controlled by the programmable
button of indoor station ,guard unit or outdoor station,
the mapping of the switch actuator address and the
programmable button address should be configured.
This is called "Time relay mode".

Outdoor distributor
Fig.57
As a video signal switching device in the external bus,
outdoor station distributor should be used when more than
one outdoor station or one gate station is present in a given
project while at least one of the outdoor stations is video. If
pure multiple audio outdoor stations are the case, the node
connection is enough without the need of video outdoor
distributor.
Each outdoor station distributor can connect 2 outdoor
stations. The cascaded connection is also possible from
outdoor station distributor to next level outdoor station
distributors. As a passive device, it consumes no power, but
the video signal drops a lot (15 attenuation units), thus as less
level as possible of the video outdoor distributor should
be achieved to have less signal attenuation for a given line.

As a video signal branching device in the internal bus, video
distributors should be used when star connection is needed
for the apartments in the building part and for the gateways in
the common part. For the audio system, the video distributor
is not needed in the building part and the common part.
Fig.58
Each video distributor can connect up to 4 apartments or 4
lines in the building part and 4 gateways in the common part.
The cascaded connection is also possible. The impact of the
distance can be reviewed from the distance calculation in
Table 2 on page 64.
When video distributor is used in the common part, the total
distance of all the lines branched by the video distributor
under one system controller should be less than 800meters.
Auxiliary power supply can be used to split the whole distance
into several sections, which can ensure each section meet the
800 meters distance limit with one system controller. The
distance constraint from different cables should also be
considered, please check page 64 to view the details.

Guard unit
As the management interface, the desk-top supported guard
unit in the 4.3" touch screen can interact with gate stations,
outdoor stations, indoor stations and even the other guard
units efficiently. PC or laptop can also be connected to edit
the resident information efficiently by a universal USB cable.
Fig.60
For security concern, guard unit can act as a panic reception
center, receiving the emergency call from any indoor station
by activating the “SOS" signal. What is more, the interception
in day/night mode can be set with customized timeline and
receivers(for all or just VIPs), the call will be directed to the
guard unit for monitoring purpose when the visitor call the
resident directly from the gate/outdoor station. Finally, when
the outdoor station or gate station 's "call guard" function is
activated, for example by a one-button video gate station, the
operator in the guard unit will intercede all the calls from the
visitors and transfer the filtered call to the dedicated indoor
station.

System topology
2.5 System topology
For any insulated system, there are 2 kinds of connection to make the topology – loop through connection and branch
connection (node branch or branch with video distributor). In actual project there will be more than one topology for the same.
Topology of the external bus
For external bus, if there is more than one outdoor station or
system devices in the insulated system, things should be
considered to make the topology.
»For audio system, if there is more than one outdoor
station,the outdoor station can be looping through the
device or node branch.
»For video system, if there is more than one outdoor station
(audio/video), the outdoor video distributor is needed for
a cascading connection for parallel outdoor station. By
cascading connection, the distance calculation for external
bus line is between the longest parallel outdoor station and
system controller, rather the total of the distance of each
parallel outdoor station.

Advantage to useCaution to make
- Good for low rise building
and parallel indoor stations
- Future proof even upgrading
from audio system into video
system
- Cost and power effective
without video distributor
- When the BUS terminals
of one indoor station
which is in the middle of
building is not well fixed,
the rest of the indoor
stations will not work
- The diameter of the cable
is recommended no less
than Ø=0.6mm
- Flexible wiring, "star
shaped" is allowed
- Cost effective for audio
system, no distributor is
Each node should be
changed into video
distributor if upgrading
into video system
needed
- It will have longer distance
compared to looping the
same quantity of gateway or
indoor station, especially
when parallel indoor stations
are looped within the
apartment
- When one of the branch
does not work, it will not
The total cable length
should be less than 800
meters, this might not be
enough in a big residential
complex. Auxiliary power
supply can be used to split
the common part from
one system controller into
several system controllers
impact the others
- Allow the parallel bus lines
Long distance when the
looping quantities are less(for
example≤8),which is good for
residential complex
When as building gateway
in the residential complex,
the distance will not be
long enough when with
many looping quantities
Remarks: In the real world, the combination of different topologies will be used to maximize the advantage while to avoid the constraint of each topology.

Topology for some special application
Welcome is a flexible system for many special applications.
For some cases, by allocating all the devices in a certain
topology will conquer the limitation such as the power
consumer and distance.
For example, for a big villa, more than 1 video outdoor
stations are needed, more than 4pcs 7” video indoor stations
are required, and dedicated intercom (one room can call the
dedicated room, while all the rest keep idle), then the topology
can be made as the illustration.
Fig.74
In some cases, for example the pushbutton modules of
outdoor station need to be installed at a lower place for
wheelchair users, or be installed separately with audio outdoor
station for renovation from audio system to video system, it
can make topology like the illustration.

But it must be noted that the maximum distance of the cable

Power consumer and distance calculation
If one system controller or even by the provision of local power supply is not enough to feed all the devices, auxiliary power
supply can be uselationat
Please be informed that the power unit for system controller and auxiliary power supply are the result of different formula, even
the same value is made to have easy memory.

Power consumer and distance calculation
Rule to maximize the distance calculation in the common
part
In the residential complexes, the actual distance from the gate
station to the furthest gateway can be really long. So, by
balancing the wiring topology and system total cable length,
the combination of looping the gateway and looping the
distributor together with auxiliary power supply in the common
part can be used to maximize the distance calculation rule.
Checking the Table 2, if 3 gateways are looped through in the
trunk of the common part, it can be allowed a maximum of
200m (check Table 2-3) by UTP cable for A1 (3x1.5=4.5 units),
and the max. cable distance from last gateway in auxiliary
power supply in the trunk to the furthest building gateway
of Area6 with A2≤190m (check Table2-3) of UTP cable
(2+3x1.5=6.5 units).

Power consumer and distance calculation
Based on Table 3-1, for audio or video keypad outdoor station whose power units value are fixed, then, the capacity for
different types of indoor station are available as below:
Reverse calculation for capacity of system controller andauxiliary power supply
Based on Table 1-1 and Table 1-2, suppose after deducting the consumer units of other devices in external bus and
internal bus(for example the outdoor station), the remaining power units for indoor station and video distributor(if has) in the
internal bus=R. then, below Table3-1 is the reverse calculation to efficiently know the capacity of different power supply.

03 Installation
03 Installation
Following is general information for the installation of an ABB
Welcome system in new and existing buildings.
The installation of flush-mounted and surface-mounted
devices as well as MDRC units and Kit is described in detail
in the operating manuals of the devices. There will have video
describing the installation in more detail.
Installation instructions for new buildings
The following should be ensured when setting up a reliable,
simple, economical and future-oriented Welcome system:
»
Despite many kinds of cables are workable for the Welcome
system, the distance subjects to the type of cable used,
please check the page 64 to select the correct cable to the
given project.
»
For small systems: Looping the internal bus from device to
device is recommended.
»
For high rising building: setup of a structure with a rising
mains is recommended.
»
For small networked system. Looping trunk line from one
villa/building to next villa/building through gateway is
recommended. If two or more trunk lines are provided, many
internal bus lines can be used. But please pay attention to
the distance restraint of this topology to keep the sum of
the wiring distance smaller than 800 meters.
»
For big networked residential complex.
Branch line connections for the trunk line is recommended
by gateway plus video distributor is recommended.
Please check chapter 2 for the distance and capacity for all
above mentioned scenarios.
Welcome audio system should make later conversion to video
easy. The conversion includes the exchange of at least one
audio outdoor station with a video outdoor station and at
least one audio indoor station with a video indoor station. The
system controller needn't not be replaced. However, if the
total power consumption of the conversed system exceeds
the capacity of the original system controller, additional bus
power supply(gateway + system controller) should be put in
the bus.
For branch connections in the system, video distributors
must be installed for the conversion. This is very important,
If not, the conversion will become very time-consumping, as
even the exchange of one audio indoor station with one video
indoor station will require a total change of the original node
connection into branch line connection by video distributor.
These are not required in the internal bus – if it is looped from
device to device. The setting of the terminal resistors of the
system must be checked after the conversion.
(see page 55-58)

03 Installation
Installation instructions for modernization
The modernization of a building is an ideal opportunity for
replacing an existing door entry system with a Welcome
system within the design of the other electrical installations.
Here, as a rule – independent of the type of wiring of the old
system (pure bell system, system with "1+n“ technology or
comparable systems with 2-wire bus technique) – existing
lines can be used. In case of existing cable material a possible
reduction of the transmission range is to be checked.
Conversion of old bell systems in one-family houses to
Welcome
Available:
»At the door: one button
» Indoors: one door bell
»In the sub-distribution: one transformer for the door bell and
the name plate
The conversion of the bell system in a one-family house to
Welcome system is easy if a cable is available from the front
door to the distribution and a cable from the distribution into
the building, e.g. in the hallway. This layout is used by the
system controller, outdoor station and indoor station.
The conversion of old bell and intercom systems to ABBWelcome ("1+n" technique, with coaxial cable for video if
necessary) The multifamily house has available:
»At the door: bells (with "1+n" wiring) + loudspeakers /
microphones
»Indoors: in each apartment, one indoor station
with door bell and a button for opening the front
door
» In the sub-distribution: one bell transformer for
the buzzer/electronic door opener, one
transformer for the house telephones
For systems with "1+n" wiring as rising mains installation with
branch connections to the indoor stations only two wires are
required from the multi-wire cable. The indoor stations of the
ABB-Welcome system are also connected to the rising mains
via the branch line. For a video system one indoor FM video
distributor should be installed in the branch box.
Fig.86
This enables buildings with only a bell system to be retrofitted
with audio or video system.

Installation of the outdoor stations
The composition process from modules into an outdoor
station is screwless and convenient. The direction to snap the
module should be heeded. A "click" sound will be heard when
the module is well placed. The installation video is available
to see the whole process.
Fig.87
For all outdoor stations an installation wall box is available for
flush-mounting. The rainy hood serves as surface-mounting
box as well as the device to protect dirt, water or snow falling
on the camera lens.
Flush-mounting is suitable for all types of walls, whether
rendered, clinker or cavity wall. because the installation box
has a full perimeter frame. For flush-mounting in a cavity wall
(thickness between 2 and 25 mm), the glass glue or similar
adhesive material is recommended to seal and adhere the
flush box and wall.
Fig.88
In case a 10-module frame and box are not enough for the
actual application, the conjunction by 3 or more 4-module
frame and flush box by jointing fixture is possible. However,
the rainy hood is only available 3 pcs of 4-module frames in
horizontal connection.
Fig.89
For dismantling the end strip, a distance of 1 cm should be
kept to the right of the outdoor station.
Fig.90
The camera has a large detection angle . The view area can
be manually adjusted by a simple tool with range of +15 ,-15
at all direction.
Fig.91
Note: The camera of the video outdoor station
should not face powerful light sources, such as street lights.
This should be taken into consideration when choosing the
correct position for mounting. Lamps in the entrance area
should uniformly illuminate the face of the visitor. The
recommended installation height is 1.50 m. This optimally
captures persons of average body size. Bright or backgrounds
with a deep contrast should be avoided. It could reduce the
quality of the picture.

mounted wall box.
Fig.93Fig.94
The 4.3" video hands-free indoor station can be installed in the
design of 5 various easily changeable color frames so to comply
with or contrast the decoration color in an apartment. Both surface
mounted and flush mounted are possible.
For surface mounted, the device can be mounted on VDE/
Italian( or equirement) flush mounted wall box. For the flush
mounted version, a metal flush box is recommended to ensure the
efficient and sleek installation. For flush-mounting in a cavity w a l l
(thickness between 0.2 and 2.54cm),a cavity wall mounting
set consisting of mounting anchors is available.
Fig.95
Note: In order to enable disabled people to use and set video
handsets, we recommend an installation height of 120-125 cm.
Additional information is contained in the operating manuals.
The associated QR codes are listed starting from page 106.
Installation of system devices
Recommendation: All MDRC units should be mounted in the
central distribution of the building. This can be fixed depending
on the size of the building and topology selected.

Setting the address of the indoor station:
Fig.102
At the indoor stations the apartment is assigned via the
setting of the address. Up to 250 apartments can be
addressed within a Welcome system.
For handset indoor station, the address of an indoor station
(e.g. "024") is set with the aid of the jumpers "X100","X10"
and "X1" at the indoor stations, where "X100" specifies the
hundreds digit (here "0"), "X10" the tens digit (here "2") and
"X1" the units digit (here "4"). The jumpers are located at the
rear or outside of the indoor stations.
For 4.3" hands-free indoor station, the address of an indoor
station (e.g."024") is set with the aid of the rotary knobs &
dip-switches "X200","X100","X10" and "X1" at the indoor
stations, where "X200" & "X100" specifies the hundreds digit
(here "off"), "X10" the tens digit (here "2") and "X1" the units
digit (here "4").
Attention that, for 7" hands-free indoor station, if address is
more than 99, the setting must be done when entering system
setting and "X10" & "X1" is set as "0".
Setting of the "default outdoor station"
For several outdoor stations in a Welcome system the
“default outdoor station" must be set at the indoor
stations and guard unit.
Here the rotary knob STATION is set on the address of
the standard outdoor station – between 1 and 9. For
handset indoor station, the setting is done with the aid of
jumper. The rotary knob or jumper is located at the rear or
outside of the indoor stations.
Setting of the master indoor station
In each apartment the switch "M/S" must be activated at
one indoor station. This means "M/S=ON". For additional
indoor stations in the apartment the switch here must be
on "M/S=OFF".
The master/slave setting is on all indoor stations as well
as guard unit. The switch is located at the back of the
indoor stations and guard unit.
Setting of the terminal resistor
The terminal resistor "RC" in Welcome audio systems is
always switched to "RC=OFF". For video systems, the
terminal resistors are to be switched to "RC=ON" for the last
devices of a branch and to "RC=OFF" for all others.

Operation
Always intuitively correct.ABB-Welcome system makes this
possible from the very first contact. Because the eyes, hands
and ears quickly orient themselves. In this way the intelligent
system fulfills individual wishes and requirements.
Operating the outdoor and indoor stations
The outdoor and indoor stations are operated intuitively.
Familiar style elements and easy-to-understand icons are
used.
For the 7" all touch and 4.3" hands-free and 4.3" handset
indoor station, the menu structure is used.
The functions of all devices are described in the respective
operating manuals, which can be scanned from the QR code
either from the quick guide or from the screen of the device
under "information".
System behavior
Optional connection activation.
The advanced technology of Welcome system offers the
user a large variety of options. A connection can be
established by ringing the button at the second-confirmed
outdoor station or apartment outdoor station or gate station.
Or it can be established at the indoor station by switching on
the microphone and/or the camera of the outdoor station. A
connection lasts at most two minutes after which it is
automatically terminated.
station(second-confirmed outdoor station, apartment
outdoor station, gate station or guard unit) always have a
higher priority than the connections that are established
between two indoor stations-intercom. This means that an
existing intercom will be interrupted as soon as the bell is
rung from outdoor station.
»In case an existing connection between outdoor station and
indoor station is established, a new connection(intercom)
will not be established, however, an occupied status of the
system is displayed at the indoor station
Simultaneous connection and setting.
To achieve a comfortable user experience, the door bell
button can be rung irrespective of an existing connection
between outdoor station and indoor station or between one
indoor station and the other indoor stations. In the case of
parallel indoor stations in the same apartment, all indoor
stations will ring at the same time for the door bell. A third
indoor station in the building can be still under setting without
interrupting the door bell and existing connection.
Fig.111
Fig.112
Simultaneous connection and setting.(1+1+1) .
A maximum of one apartment is being called(can be the connection between outdoor station and
indoor station, or the indoor station and the other indoor station), one apartment is rung by door bell
button, and one indoor station is under setting at the same time.
Apartment 4: During the moment all other three
apartments are under simultaneous working, no
activity can be done
Apartment 2: Connection between outdoor station
and indoor station, or intercom
Apartment 3: Connection between both
indoor stations and door bell button
Apartment 1: Setting can be operated at one
indoor station, the other indoor station is idle.
