Type of system.
The video door entry unit can only be used on ELVOX video door entry systems of the DigiBus digital type. It will therefore be necessary to use solely ELVOX power supplies in the DigiBus range (for the specifications see the relevant ELVOX manuals).
To accomplish the audio function, the type of connection towards the pillar has “4 wires” (plus the power supply):
- Digital line;
- Digital line power supply;
- Voice unit;
- Ground;
- Power supply (positive);
- Power supply (negative).
To accomplish the video function (integrated with the audio portion) a video camera must be installed on the outdoor station and the video connection then needs to be wired towards the pillar:
- Video signal.
- Video signal ground.
The DigiBus system enables creating types of systems where device and control identification is digital. Depending on the system configuration, each of the connected devices has a numerical code with 4 or 8 digits (which must be univocal) and is able to receive and send the data packets that contain all the information relating to communication management. Each data packet is composed of identification of the destination device and the command that this device must carry out. All the typical control operations of a video door entry system such as, for instance, call, electric lock opening, switching on stair lights, etc., are therefore all coded. Whereas, the voice unit for voice communication and the video signal to see the images are signals that remain analogue.
As regards the type of cables to use for the connection between the system components, both towards the pillar and towards the outdoor station, you are advised to refer to the following table and the diagrams illustrated in the "INSTALLATION DIAGRAMS AND EXAMPLES" chapter:

Description of terminals.
The video door entry unit has a 16-pin connector for connecting the audio and video signals, power supplies, calls and all the optional functions (fig. 2).
Advantages of the DigiBus system.
The most important advantage offered by the DigiBus system compared to a classic analogue video door entry system (8 wires + n) is the “saving” (on the pillar side) of the single call wire for each indoor station (necessary, on the contrary, in the classic analogue system). Thanks to this feature, the system is ideal to be used in installations where there are many indoor stations (for ex­ample, large building complexes) since it considerably simplifies wiring operations, because the number of cables is always the same irrespective of the number of indoor stations to install:
- audio door entry system: 4 wires (plus 2 for the power supply).
- video door entry system: 8 wires (including the power supply).
Another advantage of using the DigiBus system is the extreme flexibility for future expansion of the system; it is indeed possible to add new indoor stations by simply using the pillar without having to connect additional cables to the power supply. Digital management of all the commands (call bell duration, bell type, call time duration, answer time duration, access via password or programmed key, etc.) lastly enables programming all the parameters of the devices ac­cording to the different needs of each user.

The connector, pillar side, through which all the connections from and to the video door entry unit are made, has 16 terminals (inputs and outputs) divided according to the functions given in the following table:
Terminal number Type Function
1 Input/Output Digital line 2 Input/Output Secondary voice unit on door outside 3 Input/Output Main voice unit on the pillar 4 - Ground 5 - Digital line power supply + 13.5 V d.c. 6 Output Supplementary bell 7 - Power supply (-) 8 - Power supply (+) 9 Input Call from outside the door 10 Output Video distributor power supply (12 V d.c.) 11 Input External function F1 12 Input External function F2 13 Input Green LED for “door open” signal V1 Input Coaxial video signal M - Video signal ground V3 Input Pair video signal
The video door entry unit must be installed with the procedure illustrated in figure 3; if the device has to be removed from the wall (maintenance, etc.), unhook the front panel from the metal bracket (see figures 4, 5 and 6).
It is recommended to hook the video door entry unit to the bracket before powering up the system, making sure that the mechanical coupling is perfect.

Power input.
The consumption of the video door entry unit depends on the current operating mode of the device (standby, on call, red/green LED on, control activation, etc.).
The average values of the power input in the three typical operating modes are the following:
- on standby 15 mA.
- on call 200 mA.
- with monitor on 150 mA.
N.B. The above values are given as a guideline.
Operation of the ELVOX DigiBus system.
The ELVOX DigiBus system permits digital coding of the devices and commands that are sent or that come from the external plate; the latter can be considered as the master device (main appliance governing communication between the digital devices in the system), while every other single digital device can be considered as a slave (secondary appliance that is piloted/controlled by the master).
The external plate is therefore absolutely essential for operation of the DigiBus system and must always be installed in the system. All the programming parameters (call time, type of bell, electric lock opening, code
numbers of the indoor stations, etc.) are set and stored (until the next programming) in the main external plate (EEPROM memory).
NOTE: Alternatively to the outdoor plate there are other master devices such as, for example, the consumer unit in the porter's lodge, the consumer unit on EN 50022 rails for PC, etc. (see the ELVOX DigiBus catalogue).
For programming the plate and all the parameters correlated with it, see the relevant ELVOX technical literature.
The communication protocol used by the DigiBus system is proprietary ELVOX and is “serial-similar” with active level at 12 V d.c. (0 V d.c. at rest) and communication input on the digital line of 25 mA (current limiter on plate).
The standard speed is 600 b/s that enables reaching distances on the digital bus of a few kilometres.
Compatible ELVOX power supplies.
The power supplies that can be used for installing the system are all those in the ELVOX DigiBus range; in particular the following articles are recommended:
• 6948 (standard video door entry unit power supply).
• 6947 (supplementary power supply for monitor and call signal).
• 6942 (supplementary power supply for plates, consumer unit and video distributors).
For all the technical characteristics (power supply voltage, current delivered, absorption, description of terminals, etc.) see the ELVOX technical manuals.

General information on the digital commands
The digital commands are data packets that can be sent by every digital device containing the information/in-
structions that enable activating a particular function (unlocking, switching on stair lights, activating auxiliary func­tion, etc.) by means of an actuator. Typically, in the DigiBus system, the main commands are the following:
- LOCK command that controls the actuator S1
- CALL-F1 command that controls the actuator R1
- CALL-F2 command that controls the actuator R2
The actuators can be relays or voltage generators in the power supplies that are controlled by master devices (plates or consumer units) after receiving the data packet containing the command to actuate. In the case of the main commands listed above (and with reference to the DigiBus power supply 6948) the actua­tors are the following:
- actuator S1 Relay →
the contact S1 closes to 0 (ground) on receiving the command.
It is used to open the electrical lock via the power supply on terminals no. 15 and 0.
- actuator R1 Voltage generator 12 V d.c. (max 150 mA) → active on receiving the command. It is used to control an auxiliary external relay (e.g. switching on stair lights).
- actuator R2 Voltage generator 12 V d.c. (max 150 mA) → active on receiving the command. It is used to control an auxiliary external relay (e.g. supplementary acoustic repeater).
Each single command is sent by pressing a button (associated with the command) on the device. Other com­mands can be associated with other buttons that may be present.
List of standard commands:
CALL-PLATE+TLC Call from plate with video camera activation.
CALL-PLATE Call from plate without video camera.
CALL-AUDIO DOOR ENTRY UNIT Call from audio door entry unit.
LOCK Unlocking.
CALL-F1..F8 Call functions F1..F8.
CALL-CONSUMER UNIT Call from consumer unit.
Additional technical and installation details are given in the “FUNCTIONS OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT” chapter and the attached diagrams “INSTALLATION DIAGRAMS AND EXAMPLES”.

The main function of the device is, by communicating over the audio and video channels, to identify anyone want­ing to enter the dwelling by using the outdoor station and to open the electrical lock of the gate or door when appropriate.
In addition, the video door entry unit enables additional functions that are:
- turning on stair lights;
- self-start outdoor station;
- additional auxiliary function. All the functions of the video door entry unit are enabled by pressing the dedicated buttons.
The main operating states of the video door entry unit are the following:
- With MONITOR ON (the LCD monitor and the backlighting LEDs of the buttons are on).
- With MONITOR OFF (the LCD monitor and the backlighting LEDs of the buttons are off).

Video signal cable selector.
The selector on the back of the video door entry unit by the letters "DC", depending on the type of video signal used, permits selecting the most appropriate mode to reduce interference on this signal.
The selector, shown in the figure with V1, permits two different settings depending on whether the video signal from the outdoor station is wired with coaxial cable (polarized video signal) or, alternatively, with a twisted pair (differential video signal).
V1 in position “D” = twisted pair (connect the terminals V1 and V3)
V1 in position “C” (default position) = coaxial cable 75 Ω (connect the terminals V1 and M)

The “Second Function” button (2ndF) and type of unit outside the door.
Sending the main commands CALL-F1, CALL-F2 and LOCK is controlled by pressing the related buttons of the video door entry unit A, C and B.
The system moreover enables sending additional commands of “auxiliary functions” that can be used, for exam­ple, to govern cyclical viewing of a number of indoor video cameras, unlocking from the landing or other auxiliary devices, switching on stair lights, etc.; to be able to use these commands it is necessary to configure button C of the video door entry unit as the “second function” button (2ndf).
To do this you need to put selector S1, which is on the back of the video door entry unit by the numbers "1 2" (see following figure), onto position 2.
To set the type of unit outside the door (as preferred between “AUDIO” outside the door or “DOORBELL” outside the door) it is necessary to set selector S2 as indicated below.
Functions of the video door entry unit
S1 on position 1 (default position) = button C (direct command CALL-F2). S1 on position 2 = button C (2ndF).

Numerical coding of the video door entry unit.
The Digibus video door entry unit is identified in the system with a numerical code with 4 or 8 digits (parameter to set on the DigiBus plate); it is then necessary to do the programming for this code by carrying out the following procedure:
• Unhook the button cover of button C (control function CALL-F2);
13
• Using a screwdriver or small tool, briefly press the push-button R under button D (figure 11);
• Press and hold down button B for at least 5 seconds (door-opening function) (figure 12);
• The red LED of the video door entry unit lights up confirming that the device is ready to be coded.
• Send a call to the video door entry unit with the desired numerical code; if you have a plate with an alphanumeri-
cal keypad it is sufficient to key in the code and send it to the device by pressing button “C” on the plate.
• Programming the video door entry unit with the desired code is confirmed by the red LED going out on the
monitor and by an audible confirmation signal on the plate.
• Lastly, check that the video door entry unit answers the call (with the alphanumerical plate key in the set code
and press button “C” on the plate).
If you do not have a plate with an alphanumerical keypad or with single buttons you need to use the specific ELVOX programmer or a PC with a serial interface and ELVOX software (see the “PROGRAMMING THE DigiBus PLATE”).

Call answering.
When a call is made from an outdoor station (external plate or consumer unit), the video door entry unit related to the called numerical identification modulates the programmed call tone on the speaker; the video door entry unit then emits an audible warning and, if the video signal has been connected as well, the LCD monitor lights up to display the person calling.
Since it is a speakerphone system, to answer the call and communicate with the outdoor station it is necessary to
press the answer button D (fig. 6) and keep it pressed throughout the entire conversation.
The time for inserting the call is set as the plate parameter; these parameters can all be set at the time of program­ming the outdoor plate (master) and concern various functions such as timing, recording users, etc. (For a full list of parameters see the ELVOX technical literature for the plate used and refer to the “MAIN CONFIGURATIONS” chapter as well).
Self-start function.
This function is used to activate the audio and video communication on the outdoor station without a call being received; this function may be useful, for example, to check the area outside
The self-start function activates only if button C is configured as 2ndF (see “The second function button (2ndF) and type of outside the door” section); having done this, to activate the self-start on the outdoor plate it is necessary to send one of the following commands:
• CALL-F3
• CALL-F4
• CALL-F5
Pressing button E a number of times in succession (always keeping button C pressed) sends the commands CALL-F3, CALL-F4 and CALL-F5 cyclically as well.
If the self-start function is enabled on the plate and the related numerical parameter is set, on receiving the sent command the plate self-starts on the calling video door entry unit (for the plate programming details relating to this function see the “MAIN CONFIGURATIONS” – Programming DigiBus plate (basic notions) section).
Confidential Conversation.
The “Confidential Conversation” function is used to communicate with the outdoor station only if a call has arrived or there has been a self-start. It is not possible to listen to other communications in progress or self-start
while a conversation is in progress.
In DigiBus systems the “Confidential Conversation” function is always enabled.
NOTE: The voice unit towards outside the door is always on.

The additional power supply is typically necessary for systems in building complexes where numerous video door entry units co-exist.
For single dwellings or small apartment blocks, where up to 10 video door entry units can be installed of which at most 2 in parallel, it is possible to use the auxiliary power supply output of the main power supply e.g. 6948 terminals 15 – 0 output 15 V d.c.); if there are more video door entry units it is necessary to use the additional power supplies (ELVOX 6582 15 VA 13.5 V d.c., one for every 30 additional video door entry units).
“Door open” signal.
This function is used to display a “Door Open” signal on the video door entry unit by lighting up a green LED on the right-hand side of the LCD monitor; this application is useful to prevent unwanted access to the dwelling.
The wiring to enable the function is made by using terminal 13 of the 16-pin connector; it is moreover necessary to carry a voltage of 12 V d.c. via a N.O. contact that, inserted in the lock, closes when the door is open and, at the same time, lights up the green LED on the monitor (average additional consumption 10 mA).
Example of installation:
“Door open” signal powered with additional ELVOX power supply 6582 15 VA (13.5 V d.c.).

Lock control activation.
This control activates the lock opening relay of the door or gate providing access to the dwelling.
The command is carried out by pressing button B that sends the LOCK command to the plate which activates the lock opening relay in the power supply; this output can pilot electrical locks at 12 V a.c. max 1 A (for example ELVOX power supply 6948 terminals 15 – S1).
For electrical locks with greater power inputs use an external relay.
The lock command is activated solely with the MONITOR ON (self-start or call in progress).
For the wiring of the control see the diagrams in the attached “INSTALLATION DIAGRAMS AND EXAMPLES”.
Stairs light control activation.
With this command it is possible to activate the output used to control an appropriate external relay connected to one or more lamps to switch on.
The command is activated by pressing button A that sends the CALL-F1 command to the plate which activates the output R1 of the power supply that can be used to enable an external auxiliary relay (to be fitted).
For loads powered at 230 V it is recommended to use relays with 12 V d.c. or 15 V a.c. with output 230 V a.c. 3 A.
The stairs lighting control is always active in both operating states MONITOR OFF and MONITOR ON respec­tively.
NOTE: The command CALL-F1 can be remoted with a N.O. push-button by using terminals 4 and 11 of the 16-pin connector.

Auxiliary Function activation.
The Auxiliary Function activation control can be used to activate external devices or services such as, for instance, courtesy lights, automation, etc.; this is possible by hooking up a suitable external relay at 12 V d.c. or 15 V a.c. and a contact that depends on the service you want to activate.
The auxiliary function is activated by pressing button C that sends the CALL-F2 command to the plate which activates the output R2 of the power supply that can be used to enable an external auxiliary relay (to be fitted).
For loads powered at 230 V it is recommended to use relays with 12 V d.c. or 15 V a.c. with output 230 V a.c. 3 A.
The auxiliary function activation command is always active in both operating states MONITOR OFF and MONITOR ON only if button C has not been configured as button 2ndf, or with the combination of buttons C+A (see
page 11).
NOTE: The command CALL-F2 can be remoted with a N.O. push-button by using terminals 4 and 12 of the 16-pin connector.

Call from outside the door.
Via the wiring of the dedicated terminal it is possible to differentiate the sound of a call from the button outside the door (for example, landing, secondary entrance, etc.) to distinguish it from a call from the outdoor station.
To differentiate the call from outside the door the corresponding input (terminal no. 9) is used on the 16-pin con­nector and the voice unit line dedicated to outside the door (terminal no. 2).
Alternatively, this input can be used in the “DOORBELL” configuration using a N.O. push-button connected to terminals 9 and 5 on the 16-pin connector and setting the correct type of outside the door (see page 10).
For more details see the “Main Configurations” and “Installation Examples” section.

Installation of supplementary external bells.
If it is necessary to transmit the audible call warning to different points of the system (large properties, etc.) or boost its loudness, it is possible to install external bell repeaters.
This requires using terminals no. 6 and 5 of the 16-pin connector.

In practice there are different installation topologies for making video door entry systems; the type of each system depends on the structure of the building, the number of indoor and outdoor stations you want to install and on the functions to enable. The most frequent diagrams are typically ones where there are one or more outdoor call stations and one or more indoor response stations; the diagram with a single outdoor station uses a single power supply per pillar while the installation of more than one outdoor station, in addition to one power supply per pillar, has audio-video signal switch modules. The diagrams then differ according to the functions and services required (connection of a number of video door entry units in parallel, etc.) for which specific supplementary modules must be added (for example video distribu­tors, supplementary power supplies, etc.).
Figures 18 and 19 show the installation diagrams for the simplest configurations:

The wiring diagrams of figure 20 show a single power supply from the pillar (B) in systems using the single outdoor station (A), whereas when there are a number of outdoor sources of the audio-video signal (outdoor stations with video camera and voice unit) it is necessary to add additional modules:
• video switching relay (D);
• additional power supplies (F);
• video distributors (H)
Both VIMAR and ELVOX (C) indoor stations can be installed in the pillar provided they belong exclusively to the DigiBus range. For the technical details on the possible installation topologies in both “simple” residential and in complex building structures, see the examples shown in the attached diagrams “INSTALLATION DIAGRAMS AND EXAMPLES”.

All the main functions of the video door entry unit seen in the “FUNCTIONS OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT” chapter are configured using the buttons on the front of the device (see fig. 3).
Depending on the operational status of the monitor (ON OR OFF) it is possible to set and program different functions that are as follows:
Self-start function enabling.
To enable this function you need to configure the plate so it can receive a digital self-start command (typically selectable from CALL-F3, CALL-F4 or CALL-F5); to enable the self-start parameter on the plate for the desired command, see the “PROGRAMMING THE DigiBus PLATE (BASIC NOTIONS)” section. After the plate has been enabled you need to set the video door entry unit so it can send the digital self-start command; this can be done both with the MONITOR OFF and with the MONITOR ON:
• At the time of installation, enable button C as 2ndF (second function).
• Keeping button C pressed, press button E at successive intervals (press - release - press - release). In this way
the commands CALL-F3 , CALL-F4 and CALL-F5 are sent cyclically and the plate self-starts on receiving the command programmed as the self-start command.
If more than one video source is installed, it is helpful to run the command cycle so as to pass the picture between video cameras.
WARNING! The self-start function can only be used if button C is set as 2ndF.
Confidential conversation enabling.
In the Digibus system, Confidential Conversation is always enabled.
Configuring the vide door entry unit
24
“User away” function enabling.
This type of function allows the user, via the external plate, to signal his/her absence to the consumer unit (where applicable); in addition it can also be used when the user is present but does not want to be disturbed. When this function is enabled, the video door entry unit receiving the call emits no audible warning, but sends the “user away” command to the consumer unit (where applicable).
To enable the User-Away function, with the MONITOR OFF, carry out the following operations:
• Press buttons F and I for approximately 3 sec; the red LED will start to blink.

Activation of monitor switch-on by call from outside the door.
If there is an outdoor station outside the door with a video camera, the video door entry unit must be configured so that on receiving a call the monitor switches on (besides obviously enabling the voice unit).
To enable switching on the monitor from outside the door, with the MONITOR OFF, carry out the following opera­tions:
• Press buttons F and I at the same time for approximately 3 sec; the red LED will start to blink.
• Press button C; the red LED goes out and the switch-on function is activated.
To disable the function, with the MONITOR OFF, carry out the following operations:
• Press buttons E and H at the same time for approximately 3 sec; the red LED will start to blink.
• Press button C; the red LED goes out and monitor switch-on from outside the door is deactivated.
The red LED goes out after each programming phase or after a time-out of approximately 15 sec; if the LED goes out because of a time-out it is necessary to repeat the configuration.
Notes:
• In the case of switch-on enabling the monitor stays on for at most 60 seconds.
• By default, the function of activation of monitor switch-on by call from outside the door is disabled.
Setting the command associated with the call from outside the door.
To swap over the video signal from the source on the plate to an alternative source (for example an outdoor station outside the door with a video camera) it is necessary to pilot a video exchange digital relay (type ELVOX 170F + 170/051) with a specific command. The command is sent from the video door entry unit to the digital relay that will enable the video exchange if the call is made from outside the door; the digital activation commands that can be used are CALL-F6, CALL-F7 or CALL-F8.
To associate the desired command with the call from outside the door, carry out the following procedure:
• Set button C as 2ndF.
• Press buttons H and I at the same time for at least 3 seconds and with the monitor off; the red LED will start
to blink.
• Press the combination related to the chosen command (for example C + F if you want CALL-F6), the red LED
will go out.
The red LED goes out after each programming phase or after a time-out of approximately 15 seconds; if the LED goes out because of a time-out it is necessary to repeat the configuration.
Note:
• The command set by default is CALL-F6.
Configuring the vide door entry unit

Selecting bell type.
It is possible to select the types of bell to combine with the different calls that the video door entry unit can receive:
- call from plate;
- call from outside the door.
Setting the plate bell.
The bell for calls from the plate is selected as follows:
• With the MONITOR OFF, press button E or button F for at least 3 seconds to access the list of available
tones.
• Using button E or button F, scroll through the list of tones, the video door entry unit will play the related bell
and save it in correspondence with the input of the call from plate (upon saving, the red LED will light up for a few moments).
Setting the bell from outside the door.
To select the type of bell for calls from outside the door it is necessary, with the MONITOR OFF, to carry out the following operations:
• Press buttons E and F at the same time for approximately 3 sec to access the list of available tones; the red
LED will start to blink.
• Using button E or button F, scroll through the list of tones; the video door entry unit will play the related bell
and save it in correspondence with the input of the call from outside the door and the red LED will go out.
The red LED goes out after each programming phase or after a time-out of approximately 15 sec; if the LED goes out because of a time-out it is necessary to repeat the configuration.
Bell volume adjustment.
The volume adjustment of the bells that have just been described is done in a similar manner for all types of call (from outdoor plate and from outside the door). The adjustment, to be made with the MONITOR OFF, is set as follows:
• Press button H for at least 3 sec to decrease the loudness of the bell;
• Press button I for at least 3 sec to increase the loudness of the bell.
Speakerphone volume adjustment.
With this procedure it is possible to adjust the volume of the audio channel that is transmitted from an outdoor station to the speaker of the video door entry unit. The adjustment, to be made with the MONITOR ON and keeping button D pressed, is set as follows:
• Press button H to decrease the loudness;
• Press button I to increase the loudness.

Setting colour.
The colour adjustment is made with the trimmer on the back of the device by the words "COLOUR" (see figure 21);
it is therefore necessary to make the adjustment before installing the video door entry unit on the wall.
After installing the appliance on the wall with a flush mounting box it will no longer be possible to get to the trimmer except by again removing the video door entry from the fixing bracket.
Video parameter adjustment.
With the following procedures it is possible to set the three parameters that govern the video picture on the LCD monitor:
- brightness;
- contrast;
- colour.

WARNING! The following steps must be carried out after powering up the system and before programming the audio and video door entry units.
The plate parameters can be configured in three different ways:
• Directly from the plate using the alphanumeric keypad or single buttons.
• Via the specific ELVOX programmer 950B.
• Using a PC with ELVOX serial interface 6952 and ELVOX software “PC Digibus ANALYZER”.
This section illustrates solely the method of programming with the alphanumerical keypad on the front of the DigiBus plate; for configuring with the programmer or PC refer to the relevant ELVOX technical literature.
To access the plate configuration menu, carry out the following steps:
• Press buttons R and 4 at the same time.
• Enter the password providing access to programming; key in “0123” for the first configuration (default password
set in the factory that must then be changed by the installer).
• Press button C to confirm.
It is now possible to scroll through the list of all the plate parameters and related settings; for each one of these parameters a value can be entered that identifies the parameter and the related configuration.
The set values must come within a certain range (minimum value - maximum value) as stated in the parameters table attached to the plate technical literature (see, for example, the “PLATE TECHNICAL PARAMETERS” table illustrated on the following pages).
• Press button C a number of times to scroll through the list of available parameters.
• Using the alphanumerical keypad, enter the value related to the parameter to be set.
• Press button C to confirm.
• Press button R to end programming.
