Information: [phone]

The E-70 Series entry phones are compact, weather and vandal resistant
speaker phones designed to provide two-way handsfree audio
communication. The E-70 also includes a built-in 125KHz proximity card
reader. The card reader outputs industry standard 26-bit Wiegand data,
allowing it to be used with a Viking ES-1 door controller or any controller
compatible with 26-bit Wiegand format. The E-70's compact size allows it
to be mounted in a standard double gang electrical box. The E-70 is
available in four different attractive finishes to match your door hardware,
light fixtures, etc. Replacement E-70 faceplates (PNL70) can be
purchased separately and are available in all four standard finishes. The
E-70 entry phones can share a single phone line with house or small
business telephones when used with a Viking model C-200, C-250, C-500
or C-2000B Entry Phone controller. The E-70 entry phones can also be
connected to an unused analog station port (programmed for ring down)
on a phone system or connected directly to a telephone line when used
with a Viking model K-1900-5 or K-1900-30 auto dialer. The E-70 features
a built-in proximity card reader, microphone and speaker volume controls,
selectable auto answer for monitoring and intelligent call progress
detection for automatic hang-up when the call is completed. For outdoor
installations where the unit is exposed to precipitation or condensation,
the E-70 Series is available with Enhanced Weather Protection (EWP).
For more information on EWP, see DOD# 859.DOD# 859.

Installation

A. New Construction Flush Mounting

B. Old Work / Remodel Flush Mounting (Using an recommended Carlon BH234R

Rough-In Box)

C. Surface Mounting

Step 1

Recommended mounting heighy to bottom of the rough-in box is 50” - 54”. Front of box
should stick out approximately ½" from front surface of wall stud (this may vary depending
on the walls sheathing and siding thickness). Caution: Rough-In box must be mounted

LEVEL and must NOT stick out beyond the front surface of siding.

Step 2

To maintain a vapor barrier on outside wall applications, caulk around the box, filling any
gaps between the box and the rough opening. Apply caulk to any holes in the box around
wires, etc.

Step 3

When installing siding cut a hole just large enough for the Rough-In box opening.

Caution: Too large of a hole can cause plate misalignment and compromise the gasket
seal. Note: A siding mounting block is recommended when mounting to vinyl siding or
siding with a 4 inch or less horizontal lap. Contact siding installer for the correct mounting
block.

Step 1

Recommended mounting heighy to bottom of the rough-in box is 50” - 54”. Make sure
mounting location is free of wall studs, wires, etc..

Step 2

Place Rough-In box LEVEL against siding. Trace outline of box onto siding. Note: A
siding mounting block is recommended when mounting to vinyl siding or siding with a
4 inch or less horizontal lap. Contact siding installer for the correct mounting block.

Step 3

Cut a hole through the siding and wall sheathing just large enough for the rough-in box.

Caution: Too large of a hole can cause plate misalignment and compromise the gasket
seal.

Step 4

The front surface of the Rough-In box can be mounted flush against wood siding or
can be recessed and mounted flush against wall sheathing when mounting on
aluminum, steel or vinyl siding.

Step 5

When mounting to 5/8 inch thick or less wall sheathing the two attached screws with
wing brackets can be used to secure the rough-in box. When mounting to surfaces
thicker than 5/8 inch, four standard flat head dry wall screws can be used to secure the
Rough-In box through its mounting ears. (See page 4 Section D.)

Step 6

To maintain a vapor barrier on outside wall applications, caulk around the box, filling
any gaps between the box and the rough opening. Apply caulk to any holes in the box
around wires, etc.

The E-70 is designed to be flush mounted into a double gang rough-in box with minimum inside
dimensions of 2.25” deep x 3.65” wide x 2.84” tall. The E-70 can also be surface mounted in a Viking
model VE-5x5 (not included, see DOD# 424).

WARNING: Do NOT use a typical “wet location box” as not all styles seal properly with the E-70
faceplate.

A Viking model VE-5x5 can be used to surface mount an E-70 to a wall or post. ecommended
mounting heighy to bottom of the rough-in box is 50” - 54”. Drill a small wire exit hole in wall. Pull
wire through and seal hole around wire with putty or caulking. Route wire into the VE-5x5 box,
securely screw it to wall or post and seal hole in box around wire with putty or caulking. Note:

Conduit may also be used when surface mounting wire, but should not enter through the top of the
VE-5x5. When routing wiring from above, a drip loop is required. WARNING: Do NOT use a typical
“wet location box” as not all styles seal properly with the E-7 0 faceplate.

D. Mounting the Faceplate

After the Rough-In box or VE-5x5 is securely mounted, caulking between the box and rough opening
is completed (if required), and wires are connected, remove paper liner from face plate gasket back
and place it on back side of the faceplate aligning with push button hole. Push the 1-1/4" 6-32
screws through faceplate holes and small holes in gasket, the faceplate gasket should retain the
screws. Position Circuit board mounting plate over screws. Align screws with double gang box
bosses and tighten face plate until gasket is fully collapsed and the push button is protruding through
the clearance hole in the face plate. Included 1/4" thick gasket will provide an adequate seal for
most siding surfaces; however for rough surfaces (ie: brick, stucco, etc.) additional caulking may
be required.
