Troubleshooting
Intercom beeps every ten minutes.
The battery is low in the intercom. Replace with AA Alkaline
batteries or operate it with DC Adapter (not provided). A 12 volt,
300mA DC Adapter may be used (center positive polarity on the
round plug).
Need to clear intercom’s memory.
Press and hold Learn button, an initial beep will be heard.
Continue to hold until a second beep is heard (about 6 seconds).
Ensure other intercoms are not activated during this time. Once
memory is clear the intercom can be programmed to a new
network.
Static and feedback is heard in intercom.
The intercoms are too close to each other. A cordless phone,
cell phone, or other radio devices can also cause static.
Intercom is sending audio while no buttons are pressed.
The sending intercom is set to Monitoring Mode or Voice
Activation Mode and will activate when sound is heard. It can be
taken out of Monitoring Mode by pressing the Talk button. It can
be taken out of Voice Activation Mode by setting Dipswitch #1 to
DOWN position. See Features.

The battery is low in the doorbell. Replace with AA Alkaline
batteries.
Need to clear doorbell’s memory.
Press and hold Learn button, an initial beep will be heard.
Continue to hold until a second beep is heard (about 6 seconds).
Once memory is clear the doorbell can be programmed to a new

to clear the network and reprogram all the intercoms to the
network. See Programming Intercom.

green light is on longer than 3-1/2 minutes.
The intercom is out of range. Place the intercom closer to the
other intercoms in the network, with the antenna pointing up.
The other intercom in the network has no power. Replace the
batteries. The intercom has not completed programming. Clear
the intercom's memory and reprogram.
