Operating Video Intercom with Access Control
When a visitor approaches the door they will
press the call button on the call box on your front door.
After pressing the call button your
Intercom-connected phone will begin to ring with a distinctive pattern. You may
answer this ‘call’ by pressing the on-screen Answer key, the Speaker key, or
picking up the handset.
Once you answer the call your screen will begin
displaying the video feed from the call box. You can speak to the person through
the intercom-connected phone and they can speak to you through the call box. If
you want to unlock the door and let the person in you can press the ‘Open Door’
button in the top left of the screen, second button from the left. You can also
enter “123” on the keypad to unlock the door. After sending the unlock request the
door will remain unlocked for 7 seconds or until it is opened and closed again.
While the door is unlocked the outside call box will emit a tone to let the
visitor know the door is open.
Once you are finished speaking with the person
at the door you can end the ‘call’ by either hanging up the receiver or
pressing the Speaker key, depending on how you answered the call. You can also
end the call in this manner without having pressed the ‘Open Door’ key if you
do not need to let the person in.
