General Operation
Intercom Features
Each room and patio station can be used for communication with other
room, patio, or door stations. Also, room and patio stations feature four
special constant modes for room monitoring and privacy.
If the optional audio input wall plate is installed, room and patio stations
can be set to play to the audio source connected to the wall plate.
Volume Control
Volume at each station can be set
with its VOL button. Each momentary
VOL
press increases, or VOL
press
decreases, the station’s volume.
Pressing and holding the VOL
button for one second will silence
the station’s speaker. When the
station’s volume is set all the way
down, the VOL button will remain
dimly lit. Pressing and holding the
VOL
button for one second returns
the volume to its previous level.
Hands-free Reply
Room stations will automatically
listen to all other room and patio
stations for 25 seconds after the
room station’s TALK button is
released (except for stations in
privacy mute or Do-not-disturb
Mode). This allows for a “hands-
free” reply from the person being
called. This also applies when
communicating with door stations
using the room or patio station’s
DOOR button.
Quick Listen
To momentarily listen to all of the
room and patio stations without
making a call, press and hold the
room station’s LISTEN button. This
mode WILL NOT listen to stations
in Privacy Mute Mode or Do-not-
disturb Mode.

BUTTON, THE ROOM STATION

ROOM AND PATIO STATIONS
