1.2 MEMORY CHIP INSTALLATION

The telephone entry system is shipped with two memory chips packaged in a separate box inside the shipping container. The memory chips must be installed for the telephone entry system to operate.

CAUTION!! Do not install the memory chips with power to the telephone entry system turned on. Attempting to install the memory chips with power on will irrevocably damage the chips.

CAUTION!! The memory chips are a static sensitive component. Discharge any static electricity from your hands by touching a proper ground device before removing the control board. Handle the memory chips with care.

1. The large memory chip socket is colored black and is located in the center of the circuit

board. Be sure that the handle is in the un-locked position (pointing up). Be sure that power to the telephone entry system is off.

2. Carefully insert the memory chip into the socket. The small half circular indentation on

the chip must be at the top. CAUTION: Installing the memory chip upside down will cause permanent damage to the chip. Be sure that the memory chip is seated correctly in the socket.

3. Move the lever on the chip socket to the locked position (down).

4. Install the small memory chip in the socket located at the bottom of the circuit board. The

small circular indentation on the chip must be at the top. CAUTION: Installing the memory chip upside down will cause permanent damage to the chip. Be sure that the memory chip is seated correctly in the socket. If it is necessary to remove this chip, use a small bladed flat blade screwdriver to carefully pry the chip from the socket. Take extra caution to be sure to not bend the pins on the chip.

1.3 POSTAL LOCK INSTALLATION

At some locations, such as gated communities, it will be necessary to provide access to the mail carrier so that they can deliver the mail. Mail carrier access will be provided by the installation of an Arrow Postal Lock. This is the same lock that the Post Office uses for gang mailboxes. These locks are not available to the public. The installer or the building owner/manager will have to call the Post Office and arrange for the installation of this lock into the telephone entry system. All DoorKing commercial telephone entry systems are designed to accept installation of the postal lock.

Prior to installation of the postal lock, be sure power to the telephone entry system is turned off.

1. Remove the hole plug on the faceplate of the telephone entry system.

2. Cut the wire tie wrapped around the micro switch next to the postal lock access hole.

3. Remove the two hex nuts from the postal lock-mounting studs. Mount the postal lock

on the two studs and secure with the hex nuts.

When the lock is installed, check to be sure that the pawl of the lock, in its extended position, is depressing the micro switch (the micro switch is wired normally closed). When the mail carrier inserts his key and turns the postal lock, the pawl is withdrawn and the micro switch will activate the relay that has been programmed for this function for the programmed strike time.

SECTION 2 – WIRING

Prior to installing wiring to the telephone entry system, we suggest that you become familiar with the instructions, illustrations, and wiring guidelines in this manual. This will help insure that you installation is performed in an efficient and professional manner.

The wiring of the telephone entry panel is an extremely important and integral part of the overall access control system. Use proper wire for the communication line, power wires, and be sure that the system is properly grounded. Check all local building ordinances and building codes prior to installing this system. Be sure your installation is in compliance with local codes.

If this telephone entry system is used to control a vehicular gate with an automatic gate operator, the telephone entry system must be mounted a minimum of ten (10) feet away from the gate and gate operator. If this unit has been installed closer to the automated vehicular gate, do not proceed with any wiring until the unit has been moved and re-installed so that it is in compliance with these instructions.

Use only the supplied transformers (or U.L. listed equivalent) to power the telephone entry system (16.5 VAC, 20 VA for 1803PC and 1815, 16.5 VAC, 40 VA for 1817) and any weigand input devices (16.5 VAC, 20 VA). Do not power any other devices (electric strikes, magnetic locks, etc.) from these power transformers. For wire runs up to 100 feet, use 18 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire. For wire runs up to 200 feet, use 16 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire. Power wires are susceptible to noise and hum pickup; therefore it is preferable that you keep power wire runs as short as possible.

This telephone entry system contains a number of static sensitive components that can be damaged or destroyed by static discharges during installation or use. Discharge any static prior to removing the circuit board from the lobby panel by touching a proper ground device.

Proper grounding of this system is a requirement. The use of surge suppressers can significantly reduce the chance of component failure because of static charges or surges. To be effective, ground connections should be made with a minimum 12 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire to a ground point within 10 feet of the telephone entry system. The ground point must be at an electrical panel, a metallic cold water pipe that runs in the earth, or a stainless steel grounding rod driven at least ten (10) feet into the soil.

Be sure that you use proper wire that has an insulation rated for an underground environment. All wires should be placed in conduits. Proper pre-planning can greatly ease the installation and wiring of this system. Always check with the local building code to determine the type of wire required in your municipality.

If Tracker expansion boards are being used with this system, refer to the Tracker Installation and Wiring manual that came with the Tracker expansion boards, for detailed information on wiring Tracker boards to the PC programmable telephone entry system.

If Elevator Control is used with this system, refer to the Elevator Control Installation and Wiring manual for detailed information on wiring the elevator control boards to this system and to the elevator push button control panel.
