Table of Contents

The device permits transforming the latter into a flush-mounting hands-free video door entry unit. The video door entry module is none other than an audio-video interface through which it is possible to make voice and images interact; the device is provided with inputs and outputs that enable connecting the video door entry unit with the other appliances in the system (power supply, electrical lock, etc.).

Figure 1 - Video door entry module 01955.

Technical characteristics

Type of system.

The video door entry module 01955 can be used solely on video door entry systems of the Elvox Two Wire digital type; it will therefore be necessary to use solely Elvox power supplies in the Elvox Two Wire range (for the specifications see the relevant Elvox manuals). To create the audio and video function the type of connection, both toward the pillar and toward the speech unit, is made with a "2 wire non-polarized" bus cable. The Elvox Two Wire system enables making types of systems in which the identification of the devices and controls is digital. Depending on the configuration of the system, each of the connected devices is characterized by a numerical code between 1 and 200 (the value must be univocal) and is able to receive and send data packets containing all the information related to the management of the communication; each data packet is composed of the identification of the destination device and the command that the latter must actuate. All the control operations typical of a video door entry system such as, for instance, call, electrical lock opening, stair lighting, etc., are therefore coded. The voice unit for the voice communication and the video signal for viewing the images instead are still analogue signals. Lastly as regards the type of cables to use for the connection between the components of the system, both toward the pillar and toward the speech unit, it is recommended to use the twisted bipolar BUS cable with a cross-section of 1 mm2 (type art. 732H/100 Elvox or the equivalent).

Advantages of the Elvox Two Wire system.

The most important advantage offered by the Elvox Two Wire system, compared to other video door entry systems (classic “8 wire + n” analogue or digital with multi-wire DigiBus), is its use in wiring the whole system with just 2 conductors, twisted and not polarized, on which the data, audio signal, video signal and necessary power supply are conveyed to the connected devices. Thanks to this characteristic, the system is therefore ideal to be used both in small-medium residential systems and in large building complexes (up to a maximum of 200 indoor stations) because it considerably simplifies the wiring operations. Another advantage of using the Elvox Two-Wire system is its extreme flexibility in the case of subsequent system expansion; it is possible, in fact, to add new indoor stations simply with the aid of the pillar without having to wire further cables toward the power supply. The digital management of all the commands (call bell duration, type of bell, call time duration, answer time duration, entry with password or programmed key, etc.) lastly enables programming all the parameters of the devices according to the different requirements of each user.

Technical characteristics

Technical characteristics

Power input.

The consumption of the video door entry 01955 depends on the current operating mode of the video door entry unit (standby, on call, red/green LED on, control activation, etc.).

The mean values of the power input in the three typical modes of operation are the following:

- on standby 6 mA.

- on call 250 mA.

- with monitor on 200 mA.

N.B. The above values are approximate.

Operation of the Elvox Two Wire system.

The Elvox Two Wire system enables digital coding of the devices and the commands that are sent or that come from the external panel; the latter can be considered as the MASTER device (main appliance that manages the communication between the digital devices in the system) while every other single digital device (including the secondary panels) can be considered as a SLAVE (secondary appliance that is piloted/controlled by the master).

The entry panel is therefore essential for the operation of the Elvox Two Wire system and must always be installed in the system; all the programming parameters (call time, type of bell, electrical lock opening, code numbers of the indoor stations, etc.) are set and saved (until the next programming) in the main external panel (EEPROM memory).

For programming the panel and all the parameters correlated with it, see the related Elvox technical documentation.

Per la programmazione della targa e di tutti i parametri ad essa correlati si veda la relativa documentazione tecnica Elvox.

Power Supplies and other Elvox.

The power supplies and other accessories that can be used for installing the system are all those of the Elvox Two Wire range; in particular, the following articles are recommended:

• 6922 (standard video door entry system power supply)

• 6923 (additional power supply for panels and monitor in parallel)

• 6582 (power supply for additional video cameras and landing video)

• 692S (

As regards all the technical characteristics (supply voltage, current delivered, power input, description of terminals, etc.), see the Elvox technical manuals.

Technical characteristics

General information on the digital controls.

The digital controls are packets of data that can be sent from/to each digital device and contain the information/

instructions that enable activating a particular function (video call, intercom call, lock opening, stair lighting, auxiliary function activation, etc.) . The control is mainly composed of 3 significant fields: < receiver - command code - sender >. An example of hexadecimal coding of a command is the following: < 01 - 0E - FE > = LOCK

that represents the lock opening command of the main panel sent by device no. 1. Typically, in the Elvox Two Wire system, the main video door entry commands are the following:

- LOCK command

- FUNCTION F1 command

- FUNCTION F2 command

- AUX 1 SERVICE command

- AUX 2 SERVICE command

These commands pilot actuators that are in the panels or in special auxiliary digital relays to be set up; in the case of the above-listed main commands (and in reference to the Elvox Two Wire panel series 89FX/XX) the actuators are the following:

actuator S+/S- S+(positive output 12Vdc max 200mA) with S- that closes to ground on receiving

the LOCK command.

actuator F1 Contact that closes to ground on receiving the F1 FUNCTION command.

12Vdc power supply that can be taken from the '+12V' terminal max 100mA. To be used to control an auxiliary external relay.

actuator F2 Contact that closes to ground on receiving the F2 FUNCTION command.

12Vdc power supply that can be taken from the '+12V' terminal max 100mA. To be used to control an auxiliary external relay.

AUX 1 SERVICE actuator Contact on digital auxiliary relay (to set up) Elvox art. 69RH (see Elvox technical

documentation art. 69RH)

AUX 2 SERVICE actuator Contact on digital auxiliary relay (to set up) Elvox art. 69RH (see Elvox technical

documentation art. 69RH)

NOTE: There are up to a maximum of 16 AUX SERVICES in the system.

Each single command is sent by pressing a button (associated with the same command) on the device. Other commands can be associated and programmed as preferred on the available buttons via programmable time switch 950C or pc, serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software.

Technical characteristics

The main function of the device is to identify, with communication and viewing via the audio and video channels, people asking to access the dwelling from the speech unit and to open or not open the electrical lockof the gate or door.

In addition, the video door entry unit enables implementing other additional functions that are:

- activating stair lights;

- self-starting the speech unit;

- additional auxiliary function(s) (according to the configuration of the buttons);

- intercom calls to other audio or video door entry units. All the functions of the video door entry unit are enabled by pressing the dedicated buttons.

The main states of operation of the video door entry unit are the following:

- With MONITOR ON (the LCD monitor and the LEDs for backlighting the buttons are on).

- With MONITOR OFF (the LCD monitor and the LEDs for backlighting the buttons are off).

Figure 8 - 2ndF button configuration

WARNING!

The setting for selector S is made in the phase of installation.

WARNING: The setting for button "C" as 2ndF can also be made via the advanced programming of the video door entry unit using the programmable time switch 950C or a PC with serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U)and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software. In this case it is possible (via software) to configure button "C" as 2ndF regardless of the position of the selector S; if this forcing is removed the functionality of the button is once again identified by the position of S (for further details see under the heading "CONFIGURATION OF THE OPTIONAL FUNCTIONS OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT").

The “Second Function” button (2ndF).

With the default configuration set in the factory, the front buttons enable sending the AUX 1 SERVICE, LOCK and SELF-START buttons by pressing respectively the push-buttons "A", "B" and "C" on the monitor.

The system moreover enables sending further additional “auxiliary functions” commands that can be used, for instance, to control cyclical viewing of a number of internal video cameras, opening the landing lock or other auxiliary devices such as switching on the secondary stairs lighting, etc.; to be able to use these controls it is necessary to configure the "C" button on the monitor as the “second function” (2ndf) button.

The 2ndF button, pressed in combination with other buttons, sends further separate additional commands

on the digital line.

When button "C" is configured as 2ndF the correspondence between command - button is the following:

LOCK Pressing button "B" AUX 1 SERVICE Pressing button "A" AUX 2 SERVICE Pressing buttons "C+B" SELF-START Pressing buttons "C+A" FREE Pressing buttons "C+E" (by default no function) FREE Pressing buttons "C+F" (by default no function) FREE Pressing buttons "C+H" (by default FUNCTION F1) FREE Pressing buttons "C+I" (by default FUNCTION F2)

N.B.: When you want to insert the video door entry unit in an intercommunicating network, it is necessary to set button "C" as the second function (2ndF) to be able to access the buttons for sending intercom calls (that must be appropriately programmed). In this configuration 4 buttons are available for direct intercom calls, which can be made by keeping button "C" pressed:

C+E INTERCOM call 1

C+F INTERCOM call 2

C+H INTERCOM call 3

C+I INTERCOM call 4

IMPORTANT: The command-button-function combinations are also given in the section “QUICK GUIDE TO USING THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT.” All the buttons and the combination in 2ndF are programmable as preferred for sending particular function commands, except for the hands-free button (button “D”).

Warnings for device coding and programming

The identification phase (coding via numerical identification - ID) for some devices of the Elvox Two Wire system is done during the programming phase while for others it is done with jumpers or dip-switches in the device and that must be set during the phase of installation (see the instruction sheets of the single devices).

Important: It is vital, during the programming phase, for the system to have an electronic entrance panel model 89FX/XX, identified as the “Master entrance panel.”

In an Elvox Two Wire system there must be only one Master entrance panel (identification code ID = 1). The various devices in the system must be programmed after their identification; this programming can be carried out with electronic entrance panels model 89FX/XX or programmer 950C or with a PC by means of the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U and the Elvox “SAVEPROG” software.

Using the electronic entrance panels with conventional buttons (not with an alphanumeric keyboard) allows only standard programming of the devices but not advanced programming; this programming is anyhow enough for the operation of the devices in most systems.

Functions of the video door entry unit

Figure 9 - Releasing button

Numerical coding of the video door entry unit.

Device programming phases.

For the correct configuration and programming of the system, follow this procedure in sequence:

- Install and connect all the system devices

- For video door entry systems, set the jumper for video termination as shown on the connection diagrams

- If present in the system code the Elvox devices 692S, 69RH, 692U, 692U/C, 69AV, 69AM, 69AU

- When there are electronic entrance panels with pushbuttons, do the hardware programming of any pushbutton modules

- In systems with multiple electronic entrance panels, set the SLAVE panels (generally using the specific jumper) and code without connecting the MASTER entrance panel (ID code of the SLAVE panels between 2 and 15)

- Connect and power up the MASTER entrance panel (it is the panel with ID = 1)

- Program any entrance panel parameters. The essential parameters to program are shown on the connection diagrams.

- Code the audio and video door entry units from the MASTER entrance panel.

- Do any advanced programming of the audio and video door entry units (intercom push-buttons, group calls, digital relay activation ….).

The video door entry unit of the Elvox Two Wire system is identified in the system with a numerical code in the interval

from 1 to 200; it is therefore necessary to program this code with the following procedure:

• Unhook the cover of the button "C" (hands-free function);

• Briefly, using a screwdriver or a small tool, press the push button R below the button "C" (figure 10);

• Press and hold down the button "B" for at least 3 seconds (door opening function) (figure 11);

• The red LED of the video door entry unit lights up confirming that the device is ready to be encoded.

• Send a call to the video door entry unit from the MASTER panel with the desired numerical code; if you have

a panel with an alphanumeric keyboard it is enough to key in this code and send it to the device by pressing the confirmation button on the panel while, if you have a push-buttons panel, send the call with the button that you want to associate with the video door entry unit on the panel.

• The programming of the video door entry unit with the desired code is confirmed by the red LED on the monitor

turning off and an audible warning as confirmation on the panel.

• Lastly, check that the video door entry unit answers the call (with an alphanumeric panel, key in the set code

and press the confirmation button on the panel while, if you have a push-buttons panel, press the button corresponding to the call).

If you do not have a panel with alphanumerical buttons or single buttons it is necessary to use the programmable time switch or 950C or the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) with PC and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software.

Figure 11

Figure 10

Functions of the video door entry unit

Secondary numerical coding of the video door entry unit

Programming the secondary identification code is only required when you want to have more than one video door entry unit ring at the same time with the same push-button or call code. The video door entry units that must ring at the same time are associated with the same group; The “master” video door entry unit is programmed first by means of the numerical coding procedure described above (see under the heading NUMERICAL CODING OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT), while the additional group video door entry units are programmed with the secondary identification code. A maximum of four video door entry units can be associated with the same group, without the need for programmer type 950C or the serial interface 692I (or usb 6291I/U) with PC and Elvox "SAVEPROGR” software. In the case of video door entry units it is necessary to add an additional power supply art. 6923 for each additional monitor after the second one (that is starting from the third one). By using the programmable time switch 950C or the serial interface 692I with PC and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software, it is possible to program the activation of the bell of all the video door entry units without all the monitors coming on at the same time; then only the monitor of the video door entry unit being answered from is activated, with the self-start push button, in such a way as not to have to use any additional power supplies. If you want to program the video door entry unit as a secondary one of a certain master, the procedure is the following:

• Unhook the cover of the button "C"

• Press the push button “R” located under the button "C" and then hold down the Lock ("B") and Self-Start ("C")

buttons for at least 3 seconds until there is an audible warning from the video door entry unit and when the monitor comes on if there is a video panel

• From the panel, press the corresponding push button or enter the number of the master; automatically the

secondary one will acquire the ID referring to the master (for more details see the Elvox technical documentation).

Alternatively you can proceed by setting the secondary identification using the programmable time switch 950C or the serial interface 692I (or usb 629I/U) with PC and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software. This type of approach enables associating the same group with up to 8 devices (video/audio door entry units).

Answering calls

When a call is made from a speech unit (external panel or consumer unit), the deated to the called numerical identification modulates the programmed call tone on the speaker inserted in the monitor; the video door entry unit then emits an audible warning and, if there is also the video signal (that is, for instance, there is an audio/video panel), the LCD monitor will switch on to show the person making the call.

As it is a hands-free system, to answer the call and communicate with the speech unit it is necessary to press and hold down the answer button "D" (fig. 6) for the entire duration of the conversation; it is moreover possible to set the “Hands Free” answer mode (also called speakerphone On/Off) that allows enabling the speakerphone on first pressing the button "D" and disabling it when pressing it next (see chapter “CONFIGURATION OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT”).

The call activation time is set as a panel parameter; these parameters can all be set in the phase of programming the external panel (MASTER) and they involve various functions such as timing, recording consumers, etc. (for the complete list of the parameters see the Elvox technical documentation related to the panel used and also the chapter “PROGRAMMING THE Elvox Two Wire PANEL”).

If the video door entry unit is interfaced with the By-me home automation system, it is possible to end the call voluntarily; for more details, see the chapter “INTEGRATION OF THE By-me SYSTEM”.

Functions of the video door entry unit

Self-start function

This function enables activating audio and video communication on the speech unit without a call being received; this can be useful, for instance, in the case in which it is wished to check the external zone or an internal zone where an additional video camera has been installed.

To activate self-starting on the external panel it is necessary to send the SELF-START command associated with the button "C" when the 2ndF is not set (or "C"+"A" if the 2ndF is enabled - see the chapter "THE SECOND FUNCTION BUTTON (2ndF)").

Repeatedly pressing the button "C" (therefore repeatedly sending the SELF-START command) cyclically performs self-start on any other secondary panels fitted; the progressive sequence is programmable as a panel parameter (using the programmable time switch 950C or PC serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) and the Elvox “SAVEPROG” software.

The self-start on further additional stand-alone video cameras type CCTV (for instance 20560, 14560, 20565,

14565) is constrained by the presence of the Elvox video interface 69AV/M (or audio/video 69AM).

For greater details see the chapter “AUDIO/VIDEO INTERFACE FOR VIDEO CAMERAS” in this manual.

Conversation Privacy

The “Conversation Privacy” function enables communicating with the speech unit only if a call has arrived or if a self-start has been performed; it is not possible to listen to any other communications in progress nor run a selfstart while there a conversation is in progress.

In Elvox Two Wire systems the "confidential conversation" function is always enabled.

Functions of the video door entry unit

“Door Open” indicator.

This function enables displaying a “Door Open” signal on the video door entry unit by lighting up the green LED on the right-hand side of the LCD monitor; this application is useful to avoid unwanted access to the housing unit.

To enable this function it is necessary, when the door is closed to connect a sensor with a N.O. contact to the terminals ‘PA' and 'M' of the panel of the Elvox Two Wire system.

The green led lights up when at least one of the enabled doors closes the contact on the respective panel.

Stair lights control activation (FUNCTION-F1/F2 or AUX SERVICE 1/2).

With this command it is possible to activate the output used for commanding a suitable external relay connected to one or more lamps to be turned on.

To activate this type of service it is possible to use both the FUNCTION F1/F2 commands (actuators available directly on the panel and common to all the internal ones) or the AUX 1/2 SERVICE commands (up to a max of 16 independent services) with the support for an Elvox external digital relay art. 69RH.

The command is activated by pressing the button "A" that sends the AUX 1 SERVICE command that activates the corresponding output in the supporting digital relay (factory setting); nothing anyhow prohibits using the F1/ F2 FUNCTION command and the related actuator of the panel (use the terminal '+12V' as positive and 'F1' or 'F2' as negative) to enable an external auxiliary relay (to setup).

For loads supplied at 230 V it is recommended to use relays of 12 Vdc with output 230 Vac 3 A.

The staircase lighting command is always active in both states of operation MONITOR OFF and MONITOR ON respectively.

Auxiliary Function Activation (Function-F1/F2 or AUX SERVICE 1/2).

The activation command of any auxiliary functions can be used to activate services or external devices such as, for instance, courtesy lights, automations, etc.

It is possible to use both the FUNCTION F1/F2 commands (using the actuators available directly on the panel and common to all the internal ones, that have not already been used - e.g. to switch on the stair lights) or the AUX 1/2 SERVICE commands (up to a max of 16 independent services and that are free from other uses) with the support for an Elvox external digital relay art. 69RH.

The command is activated by pressing the button or the combination of buttons that sends the selected command (see the map of the combinations in 2ndF in chapter “THE SECOND FUNCTION BUTTON (2ndF)” available to send this command); then as regards the supporting relays, the related loads and connection diagrams, the same considerations apply as above.

The auxiliary function activation command is always active in both states of operation MONITOR OFF and MONITOR ON respectively.

WARNING: The activation time of the FUNCTION-F1 and FUNCTION-F2 commands is set with the advanced panel programming; in addition it is possible to set also the activation time of the AUX 1 SERVICES. .16 (for all the details see the related Elvox technical documentation art. 69RH).

Doorbell calls

This application enables, with a normal N/O button outside and connected directly to the video door entry unit, accomplishing the function performed by the traditional doorbell.

The N/O button must be connected to the terminals ‘FP' and 'M', on pressing this button, the video door entry unit emits an acoustic signal without however turning on the monitor; the tone of the bell is fixed and cannot be modified.

Landing calls

The system enables making both audio and audio/video external stations that can be used, for instance, on the landings of condominiums through which people pass to access the door for entry into the apartments.

The audio speech unit is made with the call button 20577 or 14577 while the audio/video one is composed of the same call button with which a video camera is combined (art. 20560, 14560 or 20565, 14565) with the opportunity of adding also the LED illuminators (art. 20570, 14570) if the environmental illumination is not enough.

Finally, to make the audio/video call from the landing, it is necessary to use the audio/video interface for Elvox video cameras 69AM (see the chapter "AUDIO/VIDEO COMMUNICATION FOR LANDING CALLS" of this manual).

Figure 20 - External bell installation with relay

Figure 21 - Installation with Elvox

Installation of supplementary external ringtones

If it is necessary to transmit the call audible warning to different points of the system (large properties, etc.) or boost its intensity, it is possible to install external bell repeaters.

To do this uses the terminals '+12' and 'CH' in the case of ringtones that need an external relay at 12 Vcc (for instance art. Elvox 170/101) while, if the Elvox bell 860A powered by the mains is used, the terminals to wire are 'CH' and 'M'.

N.B.: It is necessary not to exceed the absorption of 100 mA from the output '+12' so as not to cause any malfunctioning of the video door entry unit.

Examples of installation:

Video door entry units with simultaneous video calls

The need to install multiple video door entry units in parallel, with the simultaneous activation of the LCD monitors, has requirements tied to their consumption of current that must be limited so as not to exceed the permissible delivery of the Elvox main power supply 6922.

In the phase of configuration it is possible to set “call groups” (that are groups of video door entry units that at the same time answer the same call) in two different modes that can be set via advanced programming with programmable time switch 950C or with a PC and the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) with Elvox software “SAVEPROG” (for the details see chapter "CONFIGURATION OF THE OPTIONAL FUNCTIONS OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT"); these modes are:

1. Group call with only the master active at the call (so only the master video door entry unit is switched on).

Group call with all the group video door entry units active at the call (all the video door entry units are switched

on).

Figure 23 - Video door entry system 2 indoor stations

Installation topology

In practice there are different installation topologies for creating video door entry systems; the type of each system in fact depends on the structure of the property, the number of outdoor and indoor stations that is desired to be installed and the functions to be enabled.

The most recurrent diagrams are typically those where there is one or more outdoor calling stations and one or more indoor answering stations. These outlines then differ according to the functions and services required (connection of a number of video door entry units in parallel, bell repeaters, actuators for external services, etc.) for which it is necessary to introduce specific supplementary modules (supplementary power supplies, external relays, etc.).

In the above examples, there is a single main power supply (AL) in the systems that use the single outdoor station (TE); in the case in which, it is necessary to build a network of intercommunicating audio/video door entry units isolated from the main system, in the case in which there are several external sources of audio-video signal (outdoor stations with video camera and voice unit) or you want to create separated communication sectors or in the case of systems installed in a building complex, it is necessary to insert further supplementary modules such as:

• concentrators (CC);

• additional power supplies (AL1 and AS);

• separators (SP).

Conﬁguration of the video door entry unit

Configuration of the video door entry unit.

All the main standard functions of the video door entry unit seen in the chapter “FUNCTIONS OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT” are configured with the buttons on the front of the device (see fig. 6 ); for the advanced programming of the video door entry unit (optional functions such as setting groups, association of buttons with specific commands, configuration of the intercom calls, association with the landing audio/video call buttons, etc.) it is necessary to use the Elvox programmable time switch 950C or the PC and the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) and the Elvox

Configuration of the standard functions of the video door entry unit.

Configuration of the standard functions of the video door entry unit enables satisfying the application requirements of most of the systems that are installed. According to the state of operation of the monitor (ON or OFF) it is possible to set and program different functions that are as follows:

Enabling the self-start function.

To use this function it is necessary to configure the panel so that it is enabled to receive the self-start command (see the panel parameters in the Elvox Two Wire documentation - parameter enabled by default); the SELFSTART command takes place in two ways:

- pressing the "C" button with the MONITOR OFF (if "C" has not been set as 2ndF);

- pressing buttons "C" and "A" at the same time (if "C" has been set as 2ndF).

WITH THE MONITOR ON, sending the self-start command allows sequential viewing of the images sent from the video cameras of the video panels present besides the main one (it is necessary to set the self-start sequence on the MASTER panel with the Elvox programmable time switch 950C or a PC and the serial interface 692I or usb 692I/U with Elvox “SAVEPROG” software).

Enabling the “User Away” function.

This type of function allows the user, via the external panel, to signal his own absence to the guard room consumer unit (if applicable); it can moreover be used also in the case in which the user is at home but doesn’t want to be disturbed. When the function is enabled the video door entry unit that receives the call doesn't emit any audible warning and it doesn't turn on the monitor.

To enable the User away function, carry out the following operations with the MONITOR OFF:

• Repeatedly, with the MONITOR OFF, press the "H" button (bell volume decrease button) to reset its sound level;

the red LED lights up and the User away function is on.

To disable the function, carry out the following operations with the MONITOR OFF:

• Repeatedly, with the MONITOR OFF, press the "I" button (bell volume increase button) to reach the desired sound

level; The red LED goes out and the User away function is off.

Red LED indicators.

When the "User Away” function is enabled, the LED supplies the following information:

• LED on steady = "User Away” function enabled.

• LED flashing at brief intervals = Call received (the LED emits up to 4 rapid flashes to distinguish up to 4 different

calls received).

Audio/video communication for landing calls.

If there is the need to install one or more indoor audio/video call stations (“landing call”), there are two different types:

- landing calls, “audio only";

- landing calls, “audio/video”. According to the chosen type, the installation of modules and auxiliary accessories is necessary.

Landing calls, audio only

If there is a speech unit on the landing with only the audio function (art. 20577 or 14577), the video door entry unit must be configured for being able to receive the audio communication from the landing call button. To associate the landing call button with the video door entry unit carry out the following procedure:

1. Code the landing call button (see the instructions sheet of art. 20577 or 14577)

2. Associate the video door entry unit/audio door entry unit with the landing call button 20577/14577 using the programmable time switch 950C or a PC and the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) with “Elvox “SAVEPROG” software (see the chapter “CONFIGURATION OF THE OPTIONAL FUNCTIONS OF THE VIDEO ENTRYPHONE” Association of the landing calls) of this manual.

NOTE: To associate the video/audio door entry unit with the landing call solely of the audio type it is necessary to keep the call type selection jumper (set on the removable terminal side of 20577/14577) in position “A.”

Landing calls, audio/video

If there is a speech unit on the landing with the audio/video function (art. 20577/14577 with 20560/14560 or 20565/14565), the video door entry unit must be configured for being able to receive the audio communication from the call button 20577/14577 and activation of the video camera from the landing.

To activate the video camera on the landing it is necessary to install the Elvox audio/video interface for video cameras art. 69AM.

To associate the landing call button with the video door entry unit carry out the following procedure:

1. Code the landing call button (see the instructions sheet of art. 20577 or 14577)

NOTE: To associate the video/audio door entry unit with the landing call of the audio/video type it is necessary to keep the call type selection jumper (set on the removable terminal side of 20577/14577) in position “V.”

Conﬁguration of the video door entry unit

IMPORTANT: The video/audio door entry unit can be associated with up to a maximum of 4 different landing call buttons; the identification code of the call button belongs to the class of the monitors (numerical

code from 1 to 200). The local lock activation time (the default setting is equal to 1 s) can be modified only with the programmable time switch 950C or with the PC and the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) and the Elvox “SAVEPROG” software (selection interval from 0 to 250 s). Vice versa, the response time (30 s), conversation time (300 s) and self-start time (30 s) are fixed and are not modifiable.

Audio/video interface for video cameras

The audio/video interface for video cameras art. 69AM Elvox is a DIN bar 8-module device necessary to make both the audio/video landing call and self-start any additional video cameras installed in the system with “CCTV function.”

The device is able to manage 4 video cameras directly with the related audio inputs (video cameras 20565 and

14565) and up to a maximum of 16 video cameras with related audio inputs using special Elvox expansion modules with 4 inputs art. 69AM/4 Elvox.

The interface can be identified in the same way as a SLAVE panel, with a numerical code between 2 and 15 and different from that of any other panels present in the system; alternatively it can be used without numerical identification associating it with the landing call.

If it is identified as a SLAVE panel it is possible to self-start sequentially viewing the video cameras connected directly or through expansion modules (maximum 16 video cameras).

Whereas if the interface is not identified but only associated with the landing call button 20577 or 14577, the video cameras corresponding to the calls sent from the landing buttons (maximum 4 landing calls with the related video camera) can be turned on and self-start is also possible on the various video cameras connected to the interface making a fictitious intercom call toward the call button.

APPLICATIONS:

1. Using the interface 69AM for additional video cameras (“CCTV” function)

If it is wished to use the audio/video interface for video cameras 69AM for controlling the self-start of additional video cameras in the system (with any audio signal and up to a maximum of 16 video cameras using the special expansion modules art. 68AM/4), it is necessary to code the interface 69AM only with the programmable time switch 950C or with PC and serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) and the Elvox “SAVEPROG” software assigning an identification code between 2 and 15 (numbering dedicated to the SLAVE panels) different to that of the other panels in the system (for greater details see the Elvox technical documentation for art. 69AM).

Art.

69AM

ITALY

In this way the interface behaves exactly as a normal SLAVE panel; to switch on the first video camera it is necessary to repeatedly send the SELF-START command from the video door entry unit (see the chapter “SELFSTART FUNCTION“) so as to “scroll” through any panels present to reach the first video camera connected to the 69AM.

Finally, to scroll through all the video cameras connected to the interface, repeatedly press the button for sending the LOCK command (button "B").

N.B.: For each video door entry unit it is possible to configure the self-start sequence of the additional video cameras connected to the audio/video interface 69AM; this configuration can be made exclusively with

advanced programming of the audio/video interface by using the programmable time switch 950C or a PC and the serial interface 692I or usb 692I/U with Elvox “SAVEPROG” software (see the related technical documentation).

2. Use of the interface 69AM for audio/video landing calls

If there is a landing audio/video speech unit (push-button 20577/14577 and video cameras 20560, 20565, 14560, 14565), the audio/video interface can be used instead without numerical coding of the secondary panel as instead was necessary in the preceding case (in this way an ID reserved for the class of panels is not pointlessly occupied).

WARNING: The association between landing call button (20577 or 14577) and the video/audio door entry unit to be called can be done via advanced programming as the association of the video camera with the audio/video interface for video cameras (69AM); then it is necessary to use the programmable time switch 950C or a PC and the interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) with Elvox “SAVEPROG” software (see the related technical documentation).

On sending the audio/video call by pressing the landing nameplate button (art. 20577 or 14577), the interface will enable the video camera associated with it. With this type of configuration it is possible to connect up to 4 video cameras for the 4 possible landing call buttons.

NOTE:

It is possible to self-start the video camera associated with the landing call button (and if necessary in sequence on the following ones) by sending an intercom call toward the latter; it is therefore necessary to configure the video door entry unit so it can send this command (see the chapter “PUSH-BUTTON CONFIGURATION - Intercom calls").

Repeatedly sending the command allows “scrolling” through all the video cameras connected to the video interface 69AM.

Ringtone type selection

It is possible to select the types of ringtone to combine with the different calls that the video door entry unit can receive:

- door calls;

- landing calls;

- intercom calls.

Setting the entrance panel ringtone.

The ringtone of the entrance panel call can be selected directly with the buttons of the video door entry unit:

• With the MONITOR OFF, press button “E” or button “F” for at least 3 seconds to access the list of available

tones.

• Scroll through the list of tones with button "E" or button "F"; the video door entry unit plays the relevant ringtone

and saves it in correspondence with the entrance panel call input (after saving the red LED lights up for a few moments).

Setting landing call ringtone (push-button 20577 or 14577).

The landing button call ringtone is thus selected:

• With the MONITOR OFF, press buttons "E" and "H" at the same time for at least 3 seconds until the red LED

flashes.

• Repeatedly press the button "E" or button "F" to "scroll" through all the available ringtones; then play the desired

ringtone and wait for the red LED to flash after setting. The landing call ringtone can also be set through the advanced programming of the video door entry unit; in this case it is necessary to use the programmable time switch 950C or a PC and the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) with Elvox “SAVEPROG” software (see the related technical documentation).

Setting intercom call ringtone

The intercom call ringtone is thus selected:

• With the MONITOR OFF, press buttons "F" and "I" at the same time for at least 3 seconds until the red LED

flashes.

• Repeatedly press the button "E" or button "F" to "scroll" through all the available ringtones; then play the desired

ringtone and wait for the red LED to flash after setting. The intercom call ringtone can also be set through the advanced programming of the video door entry unit; in this case it is necessary to use the programmable time switch 950C or a PC and the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) with Elvox “SAVEPROG” software (see the related technical documentation). NOTE: The red LED goes out after every phase of programming or after a time-out of approximately 15 s; if the LED goes out for the end of the time-out it is necessary to repeat the configuration.

Ringtone volume adjustment.

The volumes of the ringtones that have just been described are adjusted in a similar manner for all the types of call (from external panel, landing or intercom). The setting, to be made with the MONITOR OFF, is thus set:

• Press button "H" for at least 3 seconds to decrease the loudness of the ringtone;

• Press button "I" for at least 3 seconds to increase the loudness of the ringtone.

The red LED flashes indicating that the setting has been saved to memory.

Hands free volume setting.

With this procedure it is possible to adjust the volume of the audio channel (voice communication) that from a speech unit is sent to the loudspeaker of the video door entry unit. The setting, to be made with the MONITOR ON and keeping button "D" pressed (if the "Hands Free" mode has not been set - audio conversation in progress), is thus made:

• Press button "H" to decrease the loudness;

Setting the video parameters.

With the following procedures it is possible to set the three parameters that control the video picture on the LCD

monitor:

- brightness;

- contrast;

- colour.

Note: The colour setting is the least critical one and the least influential one for the quality of the image on the LCD monitor in relation to the changes in environmental light.

Setting the brightness.

To set the degree of brightness of the LCD monitor it is necessary, with the MONITOR ON, to perform the fol lowing operations:

• Press button "E" to decrease the brightness;

• Press button "F" to increase the brightness.

The red LED flashes indicating that the setting has been saved to memory.

Setting the contrast. To set the degree of contrast of the LCD monitor it is necessary, with the MONITOR ON, to perform the following operations:

• Press button "H" to decrease the contrast;

• Press button "I" to increase the contrast.

The red LED flashes indicating that the setting has been saved to memory.

Setting the colour. The colour adjustment is made with the trimmer on the inside top of the monitor (figure alongside), 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 unit from the box.

Direct configuration of push-buttons (INTERCOM CALLS).

The buttons on the video door entry unit can be configured for sending different specific commands on the bus. They can be configured, for instance, for sending FUNCTION F1/F2 commands, the self-start command on a specific

panel, the command for making an intercom call, etc… For programming the buttons (except for the hands-free - button “D”) it is necessary to set the button to configure

in a state called “awaiting programming” with the following procedure:

- Unhook the cover of the button "D" (hands-freefunction)

- Using a screwdriver or a small tool, press the push-button “R” below the button "D" for a few seconds then for at least 3 s hold down simultaneously the programming button (or combination of buttons) and the hands-free button “D” (releasing button “R”).

Example 1: if it is necessary to program the “stairs lights” button, press “A”+”D” Example 2: if it is necessary to program the combination of “self-start” buttons (with “C” in 2ndF), press

“C”+“A”+”D” Example 3: if it is necessary to program the combination of “intercom call” buttons (with “C” in 2ndF), press

“C”+“E”+”D”...

- The video door entry unit will emit an audible warning that confirms the state of “awaiting programming of the button”; finally release the pressed buttons and send on the bus the command that you want to associate with the button to program.

For example:

1. Set the push-button for intercom calls: on the audio/video door entry unit that you want to call, press any

button (except the hands-free answer button - preferably the LOCK or AUXILIARY SERVICE button) to send the code of the called device to the calling video door entry unit. The video door entry unit responds to programming with an audible warning.

2. Set the button for sending the FUNCTION F1(F2): using a device that is able to do it (for instance audio/

video door entry units already configured, panels, programmable time switch 950C or interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) for PC and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software), send the FUNCTION F1(F2) command on the bus. The video door entry unit responds to programming with an audible warning.

3. Set the button as self-start on a specific panel: from the panel on which you want the self-start with the

button being configured, send a call with the button corresponding to the video door entry unit; this responds to programming with an audible warning.

4. Other functions: they can be programmed entirely in a similar way to the preceding ones.

Conﬁguration of the video door entry unit

Configuration of the optional functions of the video door entry unit (advanced programming with “SAVEPROG” software).

With the advanced programming it is possible to configure some optional functions of the video door entry unit or (when it is possible) this can be accomplished by pressing the appropriate combinations of buttons. By advanced programming we mean a configuration of the video door entry unit that is only accessible via auxiliary programming instruments such as the programmable time switch 950C or a PC and the serial interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) with Elvox “SAVEPROG” software. in the following examples we will make reference to the “SAVEPROG” application.

Setting the group calls

Besides directly setting the secondary identification code (see the chapter "SECONDARY NUMERICAL CODING OF THE VIDEO DOOR ENTRY UNIT" of this manual) that enables inserting the video door entry unit in a group of devices (audio/video door entry units) that at the same time receive a call, this association can also be made via advanced programming with programmable time switch 950C or interface 692I (or usb 692I/U) for PC and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software. There are four possible different groups (G1,G2,G3 and G4); each device can be associated with the single group by indicating (in the specific field that can be filled in with the aforesaid instruments for advanced programming) the identification code of the master.

Example of configuration of group calls with “SAVEPROG”:

Programming the Elvox

WARNING! The following operations must be carried out after powering up the system and before programming the audio door entry units and video door entry units. In the same system there must be only one MASTER panel (identification code 1) while any secondary panels must be set as SLAVES (see the technical documentation related to the particular panel used). Do the programming of the panels powering only one panel at a time; the master panel must always be programmed last.

The configuration of the panel parameters can be done in three different ways:

• Directly from the panel itself using the alphanumeric keyboard or with single buttons.

• With the Elvox programmable time switch art. 950C.

• With PC and Elvox serial interface art. 692I (or usb 692I/U) and Elvox “SAVEPROG” software.

This section will illustrate solely the method of programming with the alphanumerical keypad on the front of the Elvox Two Wire panel (for example series 89F4/7/9); for configuration with the programmable time switch or the PC see the related Elvox technical documentation.

To access the panel configuration menu carry out the following operations:

• Press buttons

and at the same time. .

• Enter the password to access programming; key in “654321” for the first configuration (default password set by

the factory that must then be modified by the installer).

• Press the button

to confirm.

Once in programming mode, use the and push-buttons

, and to select the parameters, the push-

button to confirm changes, and the push-button to confirm changes.

At this stage it is possible to scroll through the list of all the panel parameters and the related set values; for each of these it is possible to enter a value that identifies the parameter and the related configuration.

The set values must be within a certain range (maximum value - minimum value) according to the parameters table attached to the technical documentation of the panel (see, for instance, the table of “TECHNICAL PARAMETERS OF THE PANEL” illustrated on the following pages).
