4. Operating Instructions

The Ritto 1723070 Hands-free Intercom Post is designed for intuitive operation within the Ritto Twin Buy system.

Receiving a Call:

• When an external unit (e.g., door station) initiates a call, the intercom post will ring.
• To answer, simply speak towards the unit. The hands-free function allows for two-way communication without needing to press a button to talk.
• To end the call, the call will typically terminate automatically after a set period of inactivity or when the external caller disconnects. Some systems may have a dedicated hang-up button if integrated.

Using the Buttons:

The unit features four circular buttons on the right side. While specific functions may vary slightly based on your Twin Buy system configuration, their general purposes are:

• Top Button (Speaker Icon): Typically controls the volume of the speaker. Press to cycle through volume levels or mute/unmute.
• Second Button (Crescent Moon/Circle): May function as a mute button for the microphone, a privacy mode, or a night mode setting. Consult your system's main manual for exact functionality.
• Third Button (Eye Icon): If your Ritto Twin Buy system includes a video door station, this button may activate the video feed to view the caller without answering the call.
• Bottom Button (Key Icon): This is typically the door release button. Pressing this button will unlock the connected door or gate. Use with caution and only when you have identified the visitor.
