BSFB bellissimo Flashing Beacon

Description

The BSFB flashing beacon is designed for use with the bellissimo Video Door Entry
system to visually alert the user to a call. This is especially useful for the hard of hearing
or in a noisy area where an extension sounder would not be heard. The BSFB is housed
in an unobtrusive white ABS enclosure for wall mounting in a convenient indoor location.

Requirements

All wiring should be carried out using Cat5 cable and where necessary a 1mm² (or greater)
power cable (see Tables).

The BSFB can be powered directly from the existing system (Option1) or from an extra
local power supply where there is insufficient power capacity available (Option 2). Use
Option 2 if there is any doubt or consult the manufacturer for further advice.

Installation & Setup

After installation press the test button of the BSFB to make it flash and then check that it is
suitably visible in the location. The unit will flash as long as the associated phone is
ringing.

In order to operate correctly a videophone must be present and set as a Master. When
the unit is called the status LED will illuminate at the same time as the unit flashes.
