Diagnostic Tips
1. Intercom is showing online status, but the video feed shows “fetching”.
A. This can be caused by poor power cable extended to the intercom, weak wifi, or too many
devices connected to the wifi network and the router is incapable of managing the workload.
2. Intercom is not showing online status.
A. This can be caused by incorrect wifi password created, or wifi dropping in and out due to weak
signal.
3. I can see video but there is no audio on the phone or there is no audio at the intercom.
A: This can be caused by the audio settings being too low on the phone, or permissions for the
app were not accepted during app install. Check microphone permissions for the app in the phone
settings.
4. The status is showing online, then connecting, then online again.
A: This is normal when a phone roams between two wifi connections, or between wifi and data.
Make sure the phone is stationary and either has good wifi or a stable data connection.
Enter the WIFI PASSCODE for the
network which you are connecting to.
WARNING: Take care not to enter a
typing mistake. The intercom will accept
any wifi password and will not know if it
is correct or not!
Wifi Signal strength must be at least
25%, or you will have problems!
Wait 60 seconds.
The intercom will now
re-boot and attempt to
connect to the wifi
network with the
password you have
entered.
60 secs..
If you can see live
video and hear audio,
the intercom has
successfully
connected to the
network.
If for some reason this
does not work, try
connecting to the wifi
network again and
double check the wifi
password is correct.

LAN Setup
This intercom can also be connected to a LAN cable directly from the router or from a repeater or
point-to-point wifi bridge device. Note: Ethernet LAN signals can travel 100m/300ft on CAT5
cable. Longer distances will require a powered switch or repeater every 100m/300ft.
Step 1
Step 2a, 2b, 2c.
Option 1
Connect RJ45 Ethernet

Test with laptop or LAN
tester first.
Option 2
Use provided springrelease terminals
observing colour code
shown.
Ethernet can travel
up to 100 metres
(320 feet) on
CAT5/CAT6 cable.
Longer distances
will require a switch
every 100 metres

Power
This intercom comes with a 24v dc power supply. The intercom requires up to 2 amps peak
demand at times, therefore power cable is of extreme importance.
It is preferred the 24v dc PSU is installed within close proximity of the intercom. However, on
occasion this may be difficult to achieve. Please adhere to the cable thickness guide below or the
device may be damaged and rendered out of warranty by the manufacturer.
Up to 2 meters (6 feet) use minimum 0.5mm / 18 gauge cable.
Up to 4 meters (12 feet) use minimum 1mm / 16 gauge cable.
Up to 8 meters (25 feet) use minimum 1.5mm / 14 gauge cable.

Sound, Volumes and Speech
This intercom is capable of full duplex speech, which means two people can have a conversation
and appear to speak at the same time. Since various manufacturers of android phones, iphones
and tablets all differ in acoustic performance, and different users may require varying levels of
volume on their own handset, it may be possible to setup some devices in full duplex mode but
others may need to be set in half duplex mode (phone user will press to talk). This may also be
required if a phone is in a particularly noisy environment, or the intercom is located near a busy
main road with high levels of traffic noise.
Choose the speech option which
best suits the individual and he
device being used.

Troubleshooting
It is worth remembering that when you install this intercom, you are literally only supplying 25% of
the overall system. The other 75% already exists with the customer. Namely the router, the wifi
network, and the phones or devices.
Anything can go wrong with any part of that entire system. Therefore, it is a useful exercise to
attempt to prove to the customer that the intercom hardware is working and operational before
attempting to diagnose the root cause, especially when connected wirelessly to a network.
If the intercom is connected via wifi to the network, it is very useful to press and hold the code
button on the board, then connect the phone DIRECTLY to the BELL wifi network (must be within
wifi range of intercom). Open the app, and show the customer that when the phone is connected
directly to the intercom, there is video and two way speech. The job is then to find out what part of
the installation or overall system is causing the problem since the intercom hardware has been
proven as operational.
We can say without doubt that when we do get hardware failures, the above process will not work
and you will not get video and voice to the phone in a direct connection like this.
22 | P a g e
Below are the most common causes of problems with installs, starting with the most common first.
Problem/error
Symptoms caused
Solution
Wifi too weak at gate
App showing offline status,
video image shows
“fetching, long lag on calls,
intermittently showing
online/offline, delayed push
notifications.
Increase the height of the antenna
if possible, install a wifi booster
either inside the house near the
front of the property, or a loft or
eaves mounted external wifi
booster, or install a CAT5 cable
from the intercom to the router.
Wrong power cable (too
thin) installed from 24v
adaptor to the intercom,
or power adaptor too far
from intercom.
Delayed push notifications,
video lag, voice problems,
freezing, relays not opening
the gate.
Change the power cable to
specifications shown within this
manual.
Too many devices on
home network
Lagging video or audio,
delayed notifications, status
showing intermittently
online/offline, no or
randomly operation of push
notifications.
Turn off as many other devices as
possible, reboot the router and
then try again. If the unit works, it
proves to the customer that their
router needs to be upgraded to
handle the demand.
Several wifi networks
using the same SSID
Intercom works well
sometimes and not well
other times. The wifi signal
strength on the app wifi
screen can sometimes be
strong and other times
weak.
The intercom is jumping between
networks depending on traffic and
other devices connected to the
same node. It is advisable to
change the SSID name of the wifi
network closest to the intercom to
something individual.
Incorrect wifi password
entered during setup
Offline status. Will not
connect to the network
Try process again. Check the
same wifi password works on your
phone (forget the network and reconnect using the same
password).
Additional user added
incorrectly.
Can randomly display status
“id already in use”
When an additional user was
being added, the process was
done incorrectly. Additional users
MUST be added by the admin
device first, with separate
usernames created for each. The
new usernames and passwords
must be used by the new devices
as shown in this manual to logon
to the intercom.
Commercial firewall
App shows online when
phone is in the same
network but offline when
phone on 3G/4G or on a
remote wifi network, App
works fine remotely to view
gates but push notifications
are not working at all.
This will be a job for the IT
provider for the business. A port
will need opened to allow P2P and
PUSH notification traffic to pass
through the firewall.
Recommended unassigned ports
which your network administrator
can open are 6806, 6809 and
9123, 9124.
23 | P a g e
Insufficient upload
speed
App shows online status
locally and when phone is
remote, but push
notifications may be
delayed, or video lag, or
showing “fetching” on video
screen.
This will need discussed with the
ISP / broadband provider.
