Precautions
Warning
1. Voltage is applied to parts within the
equipment. Do not touch any parts that are
not associated with the installation, wiring,
or connection. Electric shock could result.
2. Do not dismantle or alter the unit.

Fire or electric shock could result.
3. Keep the unit away from water or any
other liquid.
Fire or electric shock could result.
Caution
1. Do not install or make any wire
terminations while power supply is
plugged in. It can cause electrical shock
or damage to the unit.
2. Before turning on power, make sure
wires are not crossed or shorted. If not,
re or electric shock could result.
3. Do not install the unit in any of the
following locations. Fire, electric shock,
or unit trouble could result.
• Places under direct sunlight or places
near heating equipment that varies in
temperature.
• Places subject to dust, oil, chemicals,
hydrogen sulde (hot spring).
• Places subject to moisture and
humidity extremes, such as
bathrooms, cellars, greenhouses, etc.
• Places where the temperature is quite
low, such as inside a refrigerated area
or in front of an air conditioner.
• Places subject to steam or smoke (near
heating or cooking surfaces).
• Where noise generating devices
such as dimmer switches or inverter
electrical appliances are close by.
• Locations subject to extremely
powerful electric elds.
Negligence could result in death or serious injury.
4. The unit is not explosion-proof. Do not
install or use near gases or ammable
materials.
Fire or explosion could result.
5. Do not connect any terminal on the unit
to an AC power line.
Fire or electric shock could result.
6. Do not put any metal or ammable
material into the unit through the
openings.
Fire, electric shock, or unit trouble could
result.
Negligence could result in injury to people or damage to property.
4. When mounting the unit on a wall,
install the unit in a convenient location,
but not where it could be jarred or
bumped. Injury could result.
5. Do not place or install the unit in the
locations subject to frequent vibration or
impact. If the unit falls, injury to people
or damage to the unit could result.
6. Do not run wires between movable
objects (doors, windows, etc.). It may
cause malfunction.
7. Do not put anything on the unit or cover
the unit with cloth, etc. Fire or unit
trouble could result.
8. Be sure to perform a call test or check
the chime volume with the handset on
the hook. If you operate the hook switch
with the handset on your ear, a sudden
call etc. may arrive causing damage to
your ear.

14. The unit can be damaged if dropped. Handle with care.
15. The unit turns inoperative during power failure.
16. In areas where broadcasting station antennas are close by, the intercom system may be affected by radio
frequency interference.
17. At a gate or porch illuminated by a uorescent lamp, the picture may vary, but this is not a malfunction.
18. If stripes or ne patterns are reected, outlines and colors shown may differ from actual people or
backgrounds, but this is not a malfunction.
19. Warm-color lighting shining on the video door station may change the tint of the picture on the monitor.
20. When using uorescent lights to illuminate the screen its colors may periodically change (color rolling), but
this is not a malfunction.
21. The unit case may become a warm with use, but this is not a unit malfunction.
22. Warm air owing from inside may interact with the temperature difference in the outside air to cause
condensation to occur on the camera unit. It is recommended that you block the points from which warm air
is owing out, such as incoming line ports, in order to prevent condensation.
23. Keep the intercom wires more than 30cm (12’’) away from AC 100-240V wiring. AC induced noise and/or
unit malfunction could result.
24. Door station is weather-resistant, but do not spray high-pressure water. Unit trouble could result.
25. Due to the nature of the camera built into the Video Door Station, external light and the surrounding
environment may affect the projection quality of the TV monitor, so please avoid installing in the following
locations.

Connection Precautions
J Cable
The cable is not included with the product.
About the CAT5e/6 cable
• Use a straight cable when connecting between equipment.
• Do not use a CAT5e/6 cable with a bending angle of less than a
25 mm (1”) radius. A radius of less than 25 mm (1”) could cause a
communication failure.
CAT5e/6 cable
• Do not peel the jacket off the CAT5e/6 cable any more than is
necessary.
• Attach the RJ45 modular plugs using either EIA/TIA-568A or 568B.

Pair3
• Use the LAN tester to conrm conduction before connecting the
CAT5e/6 cable.
• The RJ45 connector with cover cannot be connected to CAT5e/6 cable
terminals for Master Station or Door Stations. Use cables without covers
on the connectors.
