General Information
• Prior to beginning the installation of 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 proper installation of the telephone entry panel is an extremely important and integral part of the overall access
control system. Check all local building ordinances and building codes prior to installing this system. Be sure your
installation is in compliance with local codes.
• When used to control a door or pedestrian gate, try to locate the telephone entry system as near as possible to the entry
point. The unit should be mounted on a rigid wall to prevent excessive shock and vibration from closing doors or gates.
Continuous vibration and shock from slamming doors or spring-loaded pedestrian gates will damage the circuit board.
Under no circumstances should the unit be mounted directly to a moving door or gate.
• ADA mounting requirements for door control. The requirements below apply only when the telephone entry system is
being used to control entry through a public door only. If this system is used to control entry through a vehicular gate or
private entrance, the dimensions noted below do not apply.
1. If the clear floor space allows only forward approach to the system, the maximum high forward reach allowed is
48 inches above grade to the top of the keypad.
2. If the high forward reach to the system is over an obstruction of greater than 20 inches but less than 25 inches,
the maximum high forward reach allowed is 44 inches above grade to the top of the keypad.
3. If the clear floor space allows parallel approach by a person in a wheelchair, the maximum high side reach shall
be 54 inches above grade to the top of the keypad.
4. If the high side reach is over an obstruction of 24 inches or less, the maximum high side reach allowed is 46
inches above grade to the top of the keypad.
•When 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, or in such a way that a person cannot
operate the entry system and/or touch the gate or gate operator at the same time.
• Be sure that the system is installed so that it is not directly in the traffic lane. Goose neck mounting post and kiosks
work well for these type systems. When planning where to locate the system, take into consideration traffic lane layouts,
turn around lanes for rejected access, conduit runs, power availability, etc.
• Environmental factors must also be taken into account. Surface mount units are designed for direct outdoor
installations, however it is preferable to protect them from direct exposure to driven rain or snow whenever possible.
Flush mount units must be protected from direct exposure to the elements.
• 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.
•Instruct the end user to read and follow these instructions. Instruct the end user to never let children play with or
operate any access control device. This Owner’s Manual is the property of the end user and must be left with them
when installation is complete.

The 1812’s by-pass board provides a method to by-pass the 1812 and route the incoming telephone line directly to the
homeowner’s phone. The By-Pass board IS NOT optional when using an incoming telephone line or internet (Telephone
Mode) – it must be installed as part of the 1812 system. All telephone wires for the 1812 must pass through the by-pass
board. Wire the by-pass board either for a “Single 1812 - telephone mode” pages 14 - 15 or “Multiple 1812s - telephone mode”
page 16.
Mount the by-pass board in a location that is easily accessible by the homeowner. In case of 1812 trouble or maintenance, the
homeowner will use the by-pass switch on the board to route the incoming telephone line directly to their home phone. If the
by-pass board is installed outdoors, it must be installed in a NEMA Type 4 enclosure (not supplied) to protect the board from
direct exposure to landscape sprinklers, rain, snow and other elements.

1.3 Telephone Line Wire
Be sure to observe electrical safety when working with phone lines. Phone lines carry electricity and the ring voltage can deliver
a substantial jolt. The best policy is to disconnect the house phone from the phone company Network Interface Device (also
known as ‘Demarcation Device’) before working on the wiring.
In most residential homes, the phone cable contains four wires; green, red, black, yellow. The green and red are twisted to make
one pair and the black and yellow are twisted to make another pair (This allowed for the addition of a second phone line since
telephones use only two wires). Most phone lines installed in the U.S. in the second half of the 20th Century have this type of
wire. This type of wire is now obsolete. All new telephone projects are using Cat5 wire. If you have Cat5 wiring in your home,
the conversion is simple:
with BLUE/white mark (Ring -) wire for one phone line, etc.
• The pairs are used in the order pictured: for the first line, you
use BLUE, for the second line you use ORANGE, etc.
• An easy way to remember this is that the colors run from the
sky to the earth. BLUE sky comes first; ORANGE sunset second;
GREEN grass third; BROWN earth last.

Modern Residential
Homes
“Tip” and “Ring” Definition. Common terms in the telephone service industry referring to the two wires or sides of
an ordinary telephone line. Tip is the ground side (positive) and Ring is the battery (negative) side of a phone circuit. The
ground side is common with the central office of the telephone company (telco); the battery side carries -48 volts of DC voltage
when in an “Idle” or “On Hook” state.
Phone Line Polarity. Tip and ring reversal is mostly immaterial, except for special circuits including DID (Direct Inward
Dialing) trunks, T-1 lines, and ground start lines where the field side (“terminal”) equipment (a company's PBX switch, for
example) can only function correctly with correct tip and ring polarity.
Wire Type. It is extremely important to use the correct type of wire in telephone applications. Since the 1812 requires
phone lines to be run outdoors or in an underground environment, we recommend that you use only wire that is rated for
direct underground burial. For example, use Cat5e Gel Filled (flooded) UV Resistant Direct Burial Cable run in conduit for
your 1812 phone line requirements. Do not use thinly insulated brown-jacketed telephone wire (the type found in the walls of a

keep time for approximately 48 hours
if power to the system is lost or
removed. If power is off longer than
this, the Time and Date will need to be reprogrammed into the system.
All other specific programming that
has been done will remain intact after
power has been restored.
DoorKing offers a 12 volt .8 amphour gel cell battery that can
connect to the main terminals 9 and
10 to provide back-up power during
power interruptions.
(DoorKing P/N 1801-008)
1.5 Grounding and Surge Suppression
Proper Grounding and the use of surge suppressors 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 wire to a ground point within
10 feet of the device being protected. The ground point can be at an electrical panel, a metallic cold water pipe that runs in the
earth or a grounding rod driven at least 10 feet into the soil. A gooseneck mounting post anchored in concrete does NOT make
a good ground.
Some Acceptable Ground Sources

safety protection for clarity. Make sure

Telephone Line Surge Suppressor
It is highly recommended that telephone line surge
suppressor (DoorKing P/N 1877-010) be installed
to help protect the system from phone line power
surges. Surge suppressor must be positioned 3 ft
or less from the ground source, 12 AWG min.
Low Voltage Surge Suppressor
It is highly recommended that a low voltage surge
suppressor (DoorKing P/N 1878-010) be installed to
help protect the telephone entry system from power
surges. Surge suppressor must be positioned 3 ft or
less from the ground source, 12 AWG min.

Check Polarity of
Telephone Line
Check for polarity on the
incoming telephone line to each
board and maintain polarity
throughout the telephone line.
One potential problem checked
when a malfunction occurs in a
telephone entry system is to
see if the telephone line has
been wired to each board with
the correct polarity.
Test Example: By-pass board’s
CENTRAL OFFICE terminals #1
and #2. Terminal #2 must be
positive (Tip +) with respect to
terminal #1 (Ring -). Set a VOM
meter to measure DC volts.
Place the positive lead on
terminal #2 and the negative
lead on terminal #1. If the
meter shows a positive voltage
- OK. If the meter shows a
negative voltage (needle moves
off scale to the left), reverse the
wires on terminals #1 and #2.

Connect to Homeowner’s Telephone
When connecting directly to a single telephone or an
un-used C.O. port on a PBX or KSU system, use the
PHONE OUT terminals only in the 1812. It must be
programmed for INTERCOM mode using this
configuration.
When the 1812 is programmed for intercom mode, it
provides the constant source of DC voltage necessary
for communication. The intercom mode also
disconnects the “PHONE IN” terminals (1 and 2)
since they are not used.
Be sure that the 1812 is programmed in the intercom
mode.

Check Polarity of Telephone Line
Check for polarity on the incoming telephone line to
each 1812 board and maintain polarity throughout
the telephone line to the homeowner’s phone. One
potential problem checked when a malfunction
occurs in a telephone entry system is to see if the
telephone line has been wired to each board with
the correct polarity.
Test Example: 1st 1812 board’s PHONE IN
terminals #1 and #2. Terminal #2 must be positive
(Tip +) with respect to terminal #1 (Ring -). Set a
VOM meter to measure DC volts. Place the positive
lead on terminal #2 and the negative lead on
terminal #1. If the meter shows a positive voltage
- OK. If the meter shows a negative voltage (needle
moves off scale to the left), reverse the wires on
terminals #1 and #2.

The 1812 Access Plus interface board (1972-010) is piggybacked onto the main 1812 Plus circuit board (1970-010). The
interface board provides additional connections to the 1812 for keypads, card readers and/or RF receivers using RS-485
communication protocol.
The 1812 Access Plus can be programmed via a PC using a network or modem connection. An RJ-45 jack (Cat5) is provided on
the interface board for network connections.
1.12.1 8-Pin RS-485 Connector Description
Use the RS-485 terminals to add up to six (6) card readers, keypads and/or RF receivers to the 1812 Access Plus system. These
devices must be wired in a daisy-chain format with a maximum wire run distance of 4000 feet. We recommend that you use
Cat5e wire for all RS-485 wire runs.
DO NOT power RS-485 devices from the 1812. These devices must be supplied with their own power source. Refer to the
individual device wiring instructions for connection information and wiring guidelines for these products.
Be sure to set programming commands 09 (section 2.6.2) and 07 (section 2.6.3) when connecting RS-485 devices to the 1812
Access Plus system.

Device Address
Every RS-485 device (keypad, card reader, MicroPlus RF
receiver) must have a unique address assigned to it,
starting with 003. The address selector switches are
located on the RS-485 circuit board (see instruction sheets
that come with each RS-485 device). The address order of
the devices connected to the 1812 does not matter. What is
important is that the addresses must be numbered in
sequence. Do not skip a number in the address sequence
and start the sequence with 003
(e.g. If three (3) RS-485 devices are daisy chain wired to
the 1812 and their addresses are 003, 004 and 006, this is
wrong. They must be addressed 003, 004 and 005).
The 2 internal relays on the 1812 circuit board are 001 and
002. Valid RS-485 external device addresses for use with
the 1812 Access Plus system are 003, 004, 005, 006,
007 and 008.
Important Note: The device address is referred to as a
“Relay Number” in the programming software.
ON
Device Termination Switch
A termination switch is located on every RS-485 circuit
board. The termination switch must be turned OFF for
every device wired in a daisy chain except for the last
device. It must have it’s termination switch turned ON.
A single RS-485 device wired to the 1812 must have it’s
termination switch turned ON. A maximum of 2 devices or
2 daisy chains can be individually wired to a single 1812
(Only 2 terminated devices allowed).

SECTION 2 - PROGRAMMING
Before You Start Programming: IMPORTANT! Make sure the 1812 has power and we strongly suggest that you become
familiar with these programming instructions before beginning any programming of the 1812 Access Plus system.
The 1812 has been programmed at the factory with many of the programming parameters already set (default setting) for a
typical residential application with a single 1812. There is no need to reprogram these parameters unless you want to change
them. For easy reference, refer to the chart on page 31 that list the various programming functions and their default settings.
2.1 Programming the Master Code
This programming step sets the system MASTER CODE. The master code is the four-digit number required to gain access to
the system memory.
The 1812 comes from the factory WITHOUT a master code programmed into it.You MUST program a MASTER CODE.
The Master Code can ONLY be programmed from the system keypad.
Step 1. Open the cabinet of the 1812 and press the master code button (See below). The Blinking LED right above the
button will remainON.
Note: After you press the master code push button, the blinking LED will stay ON indicating that you are in
the master code programming sequence. If a master code is not entered within 10 seconds, the master code
program sequence will automatically end and the LED will return to a blinking state indicating that you have
exited the master code programming sequence.
Step 2. Enter a four-digit master code then press *.
Actual keystrokes used on system keypad:
System Keypad
Same keystrokes as written in this manual: [ _ _ _ _ * (beep)]
Multiple 1812 Master Codes Note: The master code number is used to distinguish each 1812 when
multiple 1812s are connected together. They CAN NOT function together with duplicate master codes.
Step 3. The LED will revert to Blinking. Close the cabinet. You should write down your master code, see note below.

Programming Documentation Note: There are programming log sheets in the back of this manual to document your specific
master code, and keep track of all other programming that is preformed to this 1812 Access Plus. Keep this with all other system
documentation for future reference. There is no way of retrieving the master code after it has been programmed in. If you
forget it, you will have to program in a new one but all other previously programmed information will remain intact.

We highly recommend programming the 1812 Access Plus from a computer using the DoorKing 1812 Management software as
this greatly simplifies the programming task (See section 2.3 for more information). There are also several features in the 1812
Access Plus system that MUST be setup using a computer.
The following features and programming parameters can only be programmed from a computer:
Strike Out: This feature can be turned ON or OFF and will set the number of invalid access codes allowed before the system
shuts down for a period of time. The default is OFF.
Holiday Schedules: Program up to 31 different Holiday schedules. This feature can be turned ON or OFF. The default is OFF.
Email Notification: Set the 1812 to send emails to a specified email address on events of your choice. Requires an Internet
connection. This feature can be turned ON or OFF. It comes from the factory with this feature turned OFF (factory default OFF).
Note: When the mail server uses SSL (Secure link), the 1812 cannot send e-mails.
Transaction Log: Download and view the system transaction log.
Computer - PC’s only, NOT for use with MACs
•
This is the preferred method of programming the 1812 Access Plus as it will simplify all of the programming steps
and allow you to enjoy all of the features and benefits available with this system. The 1812 Management software must
be installed on your computer and the 1812 must be connected to the computer via one of the methods shown in section
1.12.2 or 1.12.3. Refer to the 1812 software help screens for more information.
System Keypad
•
We strongly recommend that you become familiar with the entire programming sequence before attempting to program
some of the more complex features of this system using the system keypad. If you make a single error in the program-
ming steps, you will have to re-do the sequence from the beginning.
Touch-Tone Telephone
•
The programmable features that can be programmed using the system keypad can also be programmed using a touchtone telephone (typically the house phone) connected to the 1812. This method of programming is useful for programming simple steps or for turning certain features ON or OFF, but is not recommended for complex programming steps.

Before proceeding with any of the programming steps in this section, install the 1812 Management software on the computer
(PC ONLY) that will be used for this purpose. Be sure that the computer has a network card installed, or a modem installed in it
(or connected to it) depending on which connection method will be used. Once the software is installed and the 1812 is
connected, refer to the software programming steps and help screen instructions to proceed with the programming steps in this
section. The system keypad may be used to program the computer’s network setup in this section but can be a little tedious to
use.
Be sure that SW1 is in the ON position (MODEM/TCP ENB) on the Access Plus Interface Board.

2.4.13 Set Call Forwarding Microphone Gain and Speaker Volume
Default setting is 71.
This adjustment is required only if call forwarding or directory code dialing is being used. This step will adjust the microphone gain (the remote handset loudness) and the speaker volume (the 1812 loudness) during call forwarding operation.
You may have to perform these steps several times to get the optimal microphone gain and speaker volume adjustment.
Be sure that you have a call forward phone number programmed (2.7.3) and call forwarding is turned on (2.7.2).
Before making any adjustments, do a test call as the programmed defaults may work fine for you and no additional
adjustments may be necessary. If adjustments are made, you will need to do a call forward test call after each adjustment
to determine if the result is to your liking.
The valid values for both the microphone gain and speaker volume are 0 through 9. These values are entered as a two-digit
number in step 2 below. The first digit is the microphone gain; the second digit is the speaker volume. The default setting is
71, which means that the microphone gain is set to 7 and the speaker volume is set to 1. A higher value increases the
loudness where as a lower value decreases the loudness.

SECTION 4 - USER INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 Resident Operating Instructions
4.1.1 Granting or Denying a Guest Access
To place a call from the 1812 to the resident’s house, the guest simply presses the PUSH TO CALL button located on the
faceplate, see previous page. Once the guest has been identified by voice communication, the resident may grant them
access by pressing the appropriate tone open number, or they may deny access by simply hanging up.
1. To grant access to a guest, press the programmed tone open number. (The factory setting for the tone open number
is 9, however this can be programmed to any number desired. See section 2.4.8 to program tone open numbers.) The
1812 will respond with a confirming tone and will open the door or gate.
2. To deny access, hang up the telephone.
Prior to ringing the resident’s phones, the 1812 will perform several logic steps to check the status of the Do Not Disturb
(DND) and Call Forwarding features.
If the DND feature is turned on, the DND schedule will be checked. If the current time is within the DND schedule, the
system will not ring the resident’s phones or call forward.
If the call forwarding feature is turned off, the 1812 will always ring the resident phones when the Push To Call button is
pressed. If the call forwarding feature is turned on and the current time does not fall within the call forward timed schedule
boundaries, the system will ring the resident’s phone when Push To Call is pressed. If the call forwarding schedule is
turned on and the current time is within the call forwarding timed schedule boundaries, the system will dial the preprogrammed call forwarding number.
4.1.2 Call Waiting
When the resident is on their telephone and a guest pushes the Push To Call push button, the 1812 will sound a short tone
in the resident’s handset. This indicates to the resident that a guest is at their door or gate.
1. To place the outside call on HOLD and talk to the guest, press #.
2. To grant the guest access, press the programmed tone open number. The 1812 will respond with a confirming tone,
open the door or gate, and will reconnect the resident’s phone with their outside call.
3. To deny the guest access, press #. The 1812 will disconnect from the resident’s phone and reconnect it to the
outside call.
The same process can be used when the resident is talking to a guest at the 1812 and an outside call comes in. The
resident can place the guest on hold and switch to the outside call.
4.1.3 Dial-Out Phone Numbers
To use the dial-out phone number feature, the guest simply presses a two-digit directory code (24-50) on the system
keypad. The 1812 will automatically dial out the phone number programmed under the directory code that was entered on
the keypad (section 2.5.1). Once the call is answered, the person called may grant access by pressing the programmed
tone open number (2.4.8) or they can press the hang up number (2.4.10) to disconnect the call without granting access.
4.1.4 Access Codes
“simple” access codes (five-digit entry code on the 1812 keypad) will operate either relay 1 or relay 2 depending on which
relay they have been programmed to activate (2.6.1). “time zone restricted” (2.6.4) or “temporary” (2.6.7) access codes
will operate the relay that they have been programmed to operate.
To use a keypad access code:
1. Press # then enter the access code (Five-Digits). [ # _ _ _ _ _ (beep)]
When the access code is entered on the keypad, the system will check its memory to see if the code is programmed and
will also check any time zone restrictions that may have been programmed for the specific code that was entered.
If the access code is a “temporary” code, the system will check the clock/calendar to determine if the current day falls
within the programmed “temporary” access code boundaries (section 2.6.7).

1812-162-G-12-10
4.2 Remote Operation
4.2.1 Remote Programming (Home Phone or Off-Site Phone)
The 1812 can be programmed and operated from a remote location (Home or off-site) using a touch-tone telephone. Be
sure that the programming for the 1812 to answer an incoming call has not been disabled (see 2.4.9).
Note: The 1812 master code cannot be programmed remotely – it can only be programmed from the system keypad – see
Programming the Master Code on page 26.
1. Call the resident’s phone number. After the programmed number of rings (2.4.9) the 1812 will answer with a tone.
2. Follow the desired programming steps in Section 2 of this manual.
3. When complete with the desired programming function, hang up. You cannot use 0# pressed together to end
programming steps from a touch-tone telephone. Wait 30 seconds before calling back to program another feature.
4.2.2 Remote Relay Activation (Off-Site Phone)
The 1812 system relays can be activated from a remote (off-site) location. Be sure that the ability for the 1812 to answer an
incoming call has not been disabled (see 2.4.9). Refer to the tone open numbers that where programmed in section 2.4.8
to determine each of the activation numbers. Only one activation number will function per phone call. Example: If you call
and want to “Hold Open” the relay, you will have to call back to “Deactivate” it later.
• Momentary Activation (Relay activates for its programmed strike time).
• Hold Open (Relay will activate and remain activated).
• Deactivate (Relay will deactivate).
• Hold 1 Hour (Relay will activate for 1 hour and then automatically deactivate).
To activate the relay(s) from a remote (off-site) location, perform the following steps:
1. Call the resident’s phone number. After the programmed number of rings (2.4.9) the 1812 will answer with a tone.
2. Press * 1 6 and enter the MASTER CODE. [ * 1 6 _ _ _ _ (beep)]
(Two-way voice communication is also enabled at this point)
3. Enter the desired tone open number (2.4.8). [ _ (beep)]
4. 1812 will automatically hang up.
4.2.3 Relay Activation from Homeowner’s Phone
The 1812 system relays can be activated from the homeowner’s phone. Refer to the tone open numbers that were
programmed in section 2.4.8 to determine each of the activation numbers. Only one activation number will function per
phone call. Example: If you call and want to “Hold Open” the relay, you will have to call back to “Deactivate” it later.
• Momentary Activation (Relay activates for its programmed strike time).
• Hold Open (Relay will activate and remain activated).
• Deactivate (Relay will deactivate).
• Hold 1 Hour (Relay will activate for 1 hour and then automatically deactivate).
To activate the relay(s) from the resident’s house, perform the following steps:
1. Pick up your telephone and press * 7. [ * 7 (beep)]
2. Enter the desired tone open number (2.4.8). [ _ (beep)]
3. 1812 will automatically hang up.
4.2.4 Relay Activation Check from Homeowner’s Phone
The 1812 can be called to check if relay 1, relay 2, or both relays on the 1812 main circuit board are latched and holding a
door or gate in the open (unlocked) position. Relays 3 - 8 (RS-485 devices) cannot be checked from the home phone.
1. Pick up homeowner’s telephone and press * 7. [ * 7 (beep)]
2. Listen for the following sequence of tones. No Tones: neither relay is activated.
Relay 1 Activated: beep - pause - beep - pause . . .
Relay 2 Activated: beep beep - pause - beep beep - pause . . .
Both Relays Activated: beep beep beep - pause - beep beep beep - pause . . .
3. Hang up.

4.2.5 Initiate Talk and Listen to 1812 when it has not been activated
The homeowner’s phone can establish direct communication to the 1812 (Talk and listen from the phone) without the 1812
being activated first (Typically a guest pressing the call button at the 1812). This is useful when a normal telephone entry
system transaction does not occur and the homeowner must initiate communication to the 1812 to talk and listen from it.
1. Pick up homeowner’s telephone and press * 7. [ * 7 (beep)]
2. Talk and/or listen from homeowner’s phone.
3. Hang up when finished.
SECTION 5 - MAINTENANCE
The DoorKing 1812 telephone entry system is essentially a maintenance free device. When the unit is properly installed, it
should provide years of trouble free service. Maintenance is limited to updating the access codes and temporary access codes
on an as needed basis.
The faceplate of the unit should be cleaned on a regular basis to keep contaminants in the air from sticking to the surface and
possibly causing pitting. When cleaning the faceplate of the system, never use an abrasive cleaner or cloth. Stainless steel
cleaner works very well with a soft cloth for systems with a stainless steel faceplate. A clean damp soft cloth should be used to
clean gold plated faceplates.
5.1 Troubleshooting
If problems should develop with your telephone entry system, refer to 5.4 troubleshooting table on pages 50 and 51 to try and
correct any problems. Our experience has shown that a majority of reported problems are actually programming related and can
be corrected on site. If problems persist and they cannot be corrected, contact your authorized DoorKing dealer for assistance.
Before performing any troubleshooting, check the following:
1. Have a good VOM meter handy to check voltages and continuity.
2. Have a telephone test set (DoorKing P/N 1800-050 or equivalent) to check the telephone line. Noise on the phone line will
cause problems with the entry system.
3. Check the polarity of the phone lines. See section 5.2 on the next page.
4. Be sure that the entry system case is properly grounded.
5. Be sure that the telephone wires are twisted.
6. A hum on the system indicates that the phone line or 16.5 VAC power lines may be grounded. Check to be sure that the
phone lines or power lines are not shorted to ground. Be sure that the cable used for communication is a twisted pair, good
quality phone cable insulated for direct underground burial. Using phone wire that is designed for indoor use only can absorb
moisture and cause a hum on your phone line.
7. Check the 16.5 VAC system power. Be sure that the transformer is properly rated (20 VA). Keep the wire run from the transformer to the entry system as short as possible. Use 16 or 18 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire only. The importance of
proper power wiring cannot be over stressed!

5.3 Isolating Noise Problems
If noise or hum is present on the resident’s phone line after installation of the 1812 telephone intercom system, use the procedure on the next page to find and correct the source of the noise. This procedure will require the use of a telephone test set
(DoorKing P/N 1800-050 or equivalent). Typically, noise is usually introduced into the system because of incorrect wiring, poor
quality of wire, wire runs exceeding maximum distances, phone and high voltage power wires running in the same conduit or in
very close proximity to each other, a wrong type transformer was substituted, or the phone lines, power lines or 1812 circuit
board is grounded.
1. Place the BYPASS switch in the BYPASS mode (slide switch to right). If noise goes away, problem is with phone in/out
wiring, power wiring, or 1812 unit. Place the BYPASS switch in the ENTRY SYSTEM mode (slide switch to left) and proceed
to step 3. If noise is still present when switch is in the bypass mode, disconnect C.O. wires and HOUSE wires from bypass
switch. Connect the C.O. wires to the HOUSE wires. If the noise goes away, the bypass switch is bad and needs to be
replaced. If noise is still present, contact the telephone company for service.
2. Remove all external items connected to the 1812 unit, such as back-up batteries, relay connections, push button
switches, or time clocks. All terminals should be free of any wiring except terminals 1 and 2 (PHONE IN WIRES), terminal 3
(CASE GROUND WIRE), terminals 4 and 5 (PHONE OUT WIRES), and terminals 17 and 18 (16.5 VAC POWER WIRES). If
noise is still present, proceed to step 3. If noise is gone, the source of the noise is one of the external devices that were
connected to the 1812. Reconnect them one at a time until you find the item that is the source of the noise.
3. Remove the PHONE OUT wires from terminals 4 and 5 at the 1812 unit. Connect your handy phone directly to the loose
PHONE OUT wires. The wires should be dead and you should not have any dial tone on these wires. If you do have dial
tone, the 1812 is wired incorrectly. Disconnect power immediately and refer to the wiring information section in this
manual.
4. Disconnect your handy phone from the PHONE OUT wires (step 3). Remove the PHONE IN wires from terminals 1 and 2
at the 1812 unit. Connect the PHONE IN wires to the PHONE OUT wires. This completely disconnects the 1812 unit from
the circuit. Check the phones in the house. If the noise is gone, problem is with or in the 1812 unit, or with the power
supply or power wiring. Reconnect the PHONE IN wires to terminals 1 and 2, and the PHONE OUT wires to terminals 4 and
5, then proceed to step 5. If the noise is still present, problem is with the PHONE IN or PHONE OUT wires running from the
1812 unit to the bypass switch. These wires will need to be replaced and/or re-routed to correct the problem.
5. Disconnect the 16.5 VAC wires from terminals 17 and 18. If the phone line is now clear, the problem is in the 16.5 VAC
power run. Check the power lines for a ground, or running next to high voltage wires, or an improper wire size and insulation, or too long of a wire run. If noise is still present, go to step 6.
6. If noise is still present at this step in the trouble shooting sequence, this would indicate a short to ground internally in
the 1812 unit. Remove the J2 11-pin door accessories plug from the circuit board, and check for noise again. If noise is
gone, this would indicate a problem with the microphone board, speaker, push button, or lights on the front panel assembly. Check for any shorts to ground on any of these components or wiring. Check to be sure that none of the wires are
pinched. If noise is still present, check the wires entering the back of the 1812 box and be sure that none are pinched. Be
sure that these wires are not touching the back of the 1812 circuit board, possibly causing a short to ground. If all of the
above steps fail to identify the source of noise, contact DoorKing for additional assistance.

• Wrong master code entered. Start over.
• Waiting too long between pushing buttons. Enter information quicker.
• Keypad is not plugged into board correctly. Cable points down (Red wire on the left).
• Waiting too long between pushing buttons.
• Forgetting to press * first when programming.
• No power. Check for 16.5 VAC input power.
• Check that the keypad is properly connected to the circuit board. The cable on the plug points down
when connected to the circuit board.
• The system is not wired in series with the resident phone line. Check the PHONE IN terminals (1 & 2)
and the PHONE OUT terminals (4 & 5).

SymptomPossible Solution(s)
Buzz or noise on the line.
Buzz on telephone line.
Phones in home will not
ring.
Phones in home ring, but
no communication
occurs.
• Check for a short to ground behind the circuit board.
• Check for pinched wires near the door hinge.
• Check for 16-volt power shorted to a conduit.
• Check for a phone line shorted to ground.
• Check that the phone wires are twisted.
• Check that all wires, speaker, keypad, etc., are isolated from ground.
• Check that the cabinet is properly grounded. Be sure case ground (terminal 3) is not used as a low
voltage common.
• Check for excessive voltage drop on 16 VAC power.
• Check phone line with telephone test set.
• Remove the PHONE IN and PHONE OUT wires from the 1812 terminal strip. Connect the PHONE IN
wires to the PHONE OUT wires. If the noise is still present, bad PHONE IN or PHONE OUT wires.
• Remove 16.5 VAC wires from the terminal strip. Check house phones. If noise goes away, 16.5 VAC
wires are probably grounded. Replace wires.
• Check internal wires, switch wires, battery wires for any pinches or shorts.
• Check that the by-pass switch is not set to by-pass mode.
• Do Not Disturb time zone may be enabled. Turn Do Not Disturb off or change time zone boundaries.
• Call forwarding feature enabled or call forwarding time zone is turned on. Turn off call forwarding
and call forwarding time zone. Change call forwarding time zone boundaries.
• Voltage drop in 16 VAC supply. Check voltage at terminals 17 & 18.
• Disconnect PHONE OUT wires from terminals 4 & 5. Connect test telephone to terminals 4 & 5. If test
telephone rings, problem is with phone out wiring. If test phone does not ring, circuit board may be
at fault.
• Check telephone company demarcation (interface) device placement. 1812 must be wired so that the
C.O. wires exiting the demarcation device are connected to the C.O. terminals on the bypass switch.
Check the wiring diagram.
• Disconnect the PHONE OUT wires and connect a test telephone to the PHONE OUT terminals (4 & 5).
If the 1812 cannot communicate with the test phone, PHONE IN and PHONE OUT wires may be
connected backwards. Check wiring and reconnect.
