Urmet Signo 1740 Video Door Phone

1 Receiving Calls

When a door phone or video door phone call is received from a door unit, the video door phone emits a ring tone selected by the user, and the display turns on automatically. If the call comes from the switchboard, VoIP telephones, or other apartment stations, no camera images will be displayed.

1.1 Answering the Call

Pick up the handset to establish communication with the caller. Hang up the handset to close the communication.

1.2 Door Lock Release During Call and Open Door Signal

After a call is received from a door unit or during communication with a door unit, the pedestrian door or the gate can be opened by pressing the [door opener button] or [auxiliary button]. If call modules are provided with an open door sensor and the add-on buttons unit (Ref. 1083/96) has been installed, the red LED on the unit starts blinking fast until the door is closed again.

2 Main Features

2.1 Floor Call

If a floor call is received, the video door phone emits the call ring using the ring tone selected by the user; the display stays off.

2.2 Call to Switchboard

The user can call the switchboard if this function has been configured in the IPervoice server. To perform the call, pick up the handset and press one of the three configurable call buttons on the video door phone. If the switchboard answers within 10 seconds, communication is established directly; otherwise, the monitor turns off. When the switchboard is called again, the video door phone rings as usual. For information about operation and programming of buttons, see paragraph 4.

2.3 Auto-On

The auto-on service allows viewing images from system cameras, as configured by the installer in the IPervoice server. To activate it, press the [auto-on button]. Wait until the image from the first camera appears; press the same button again to go to the next camera. To listen to audio from a door unit, pick up the handset when its camera is selected.

2.4 Call to Other Apartments

It is possible to call other apartment stations only if they are in the same column as the caller. This feature is available only if a call button on the video door phone has been programmed in the IPervoice server. To perform the call, pick up the handset and press the desired call button; wait until the called apartment answers.

2.5 Call to Internal Codes of the Same Apartment

To call an internal code in the same apartment, perform the same operations described in paragraph 2.4.

2.6 Panic Alarm

"Panic Alarm" signal activation is available only if a button or a radio remote control (Ref. 1033/212) has been connected to the terminal pins called "PANIC".

2.7 Features Available Only with Add-on Buttons Unit

The "Video door phone answering machine", "Absence signal", and "Automatic door lock release" features are available on the Signo video door phone only if the add-on buttons unit (Ref. 1083/96) has been installed.

2.7.1 Video Door Phone Answering Machine

If there are recorded audio or video messages, the red LED on the add-on buttons unit blinks slowly. The absence signal status has a higher priority than message signaling. Exit from the absence status (as described in paragraph 2.7.2) to check the video door phone answering machine status. To consult the answering machine, pick up the handset and press the [answering machine button]. The display shows the message status (e.g., "New Message 1/1"). For audio messages, the display shows the message content. Press and release the [play next message button] to play the next message. Press and hold for at least 2 seconds to delete the current message. This feature is available only with system software 2.0 or higher.

2.7.2 Absence Signal

The absence signal service allows informing the system about the absence of persons inside the apartment, so the video door phone answering machine is activated when a call is received. To activate the feature, press button number 6 on the module Ref. 1083/96 and press it again to deactivate it. When the function is active, the red LED turns on. This signal has a higher priority than the open door signal and video door phone message.

2.7.3 Automatic Door Lock Release

To activate the Automatic door lock release service, press the switch identified by the [door release symbol] on the module Ref. 1083/96. The green LED will turn on to confirm. Press again the switch to deactivate the function.

3 Apartment with More Than One Video Door Phone

In apartments provided with more than one video door phone, call management can be performed by any video door phone. Consider the following:

• After a door phone call, a video door phone call, or a floor call, all video door phones ring in sequence.
• In case of a video door phone call, when the call is received, the image from the camera is displayed only on the Master video door phone. To see the image on another video door phone without answering, press the [view next camera button].
• "Automatic door lock release" and "Absence signal" functions can be activated only on the Master video door phone.

Five tones can be selected on Ipervoice system indoor stations. The tones can be programmed by the end user by following this sequence:

2. Hold the [door opener button] pressed and press the [select tone button] again to change the tone.

5 Call Buttons / Special Buttons Association

The Signo video door phone is provided with buttons used to perform special functions. For some buttons, these functions are preconfigured and cannot be changed; other buttons can be programmed on the IPervoice server. Some programmable buttons can be associated with two different functions, activated according to the operating status: handset hung up or handset picked up. This allows for approximately twice the number of functions compared to the available buttons.

The following tables show available associations, with highlighted functions being those that can be changed during system configuration.
