Viking K-1200-EWP Technical Practice

The K-1200 Entry Phone is a two-way, handsfree telephone with 12
buttons for calling individual residences in an apartment building.
The rugged stainless steel faceplate has a printed directory housed
in a waterproof, scratch-resistant lens. Each button is beside the ten­ants name in the directory so there are no confusing codes to deal
with. Calling a particular tenant is as easy as pressing a single but­ton. The K-1200 has a built in speed dialer that can handle up to 12
primary phone numbers, each with 22 digits. If there is no answer at
the first number, a second number can be called automatically. Once
the tenant answers their phone, a single touch tone command can
activate the door strike relay. For “no phone line” applications, the K-
1200 is compatible with the C-3000 no CO (phone line) controller.

The K-1200-EWP shares all of the features of the K-1200 in addition
to Enhanced Weather Protection (EWP) for outdoor installations
where the unit is exposed to precipitation or condensation. EWP
products feature foam rubber gaskets and boots, sealed connec­tions, gel-filled butt connectors, as well as urethane or thermal plas­tic potted circuit boards with internally sealed, field-adjustable trim
pots and DIP switches for easy on-site programming.

If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the
equipment until the problem is resolved.

Connection to Party Line Service is subject to State Tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service com­mission or corporation commission for information.

WHEN PROGRAMMING EMERGENCY NUMBERS AND (OR) MAKING TEST CALLS TO EMERGENCY NUMBERS:

Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call. Perform such activities in the off-peak
hours, such as early morning or late evenings.

It is recommended that the customer install an AC surge arrester in the AC outlet to which this device is connected. This
is to avoid damaging the equipment caused by local lightning strikes and other electrical surges.

PART 15 LIMITATIONS

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radi­ate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

FCC REQUIREMENTS

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the side of this
equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If
requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive REN's on a
telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of
the REN's should not exceed five (5.0) To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as deter­mined by the total REN's, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for
this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the
REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.

The plug used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable
FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected
to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this K-1200 does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions
about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.

If the K-1200 causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary dis­continuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the cus­tomer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is nec­essary.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the
operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make
the necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

A. Mounting

The K-1200 is designed to be installed in a sheltered location, and is not meant to be used outdoors. For outdoor appli­cations use the K-1200-EWP. The K-1200 can either be installed as a flush mount unit using the included rough in box,
or as a surface mount unit using an optional VE-5x10. The rough in box uses the inner set of four holes on the face
plate while the VE-5x10 uses the outside set of holes. A set of dummy screws and nuts are provided to fill the unused
mounting holes.

IMPORTANT: Electronic devices are susceptible to lightning and power station electrical
surges from both the AC outlet and the telephone line. It is recommended that a surge
protector be installed to protect against such surges.

A. Connecting a Doorstrike to the K-1200 Internal Relay

3

The K-1200 can be powered from any source supplying 12 to 24
volts, AC or DC. A 12 volt DC adapter is supplied with the product.
When using the included adapter, the plug on the adapter cord will
have to be removed. The power connections to the K-1200 (black
wires) are not polarity sensitive.

There are also 8 more wires connected to the K-1200 controller
board. Two wires are for the incoming phone line, three are from the
high current door strike relay and the last three are from the camera
relay. Gel filled butt connectors are provided for easier connection to
building wiring. The table at the right describes each wire’s function.

The K-1200 provides a dry contact output that can be used for operation of a door strike. To use this feature, the Door
Strike Code and Door Strike Time must be set in programming. In this mode, when the Door Strike Code is detected,
the K-1200 will energize the relay for the period of time selected in the Door Strike Time (see Programming section E
and F).

If a Postal Lock is required, connect the normally open contacts of the lock to the two white wires coming from the two
pin connector on the lower portion of the control board. When the postal lock is momentarily actuated, the door strike
will energize for the programmed Door Strike Time.

* Note: To prevent unwanted radio interference, route the connecting wires through the included ferrite core.

** Note: The gel-filled (water-tight) butt connectors are designed for insulation displacement on 19-26 gauge wire with a maximum

insulation of 0.082 inches. Cut off stripped ends prior to terminating.

To install a directory, remove the four screws that
mount the directory lens to the front of the K-1200
using the included Allen wrench. Insert a paper direc­tory behind the lens and secure the two back onto the
front panel being careful to align the names with the
front panel graphics. For your convenience, the back
of this document has pre-printed directory forms.
