Operation - Viking K-1900-3 Product Manual

A. Apartment Dialer Mode (factory setting)
When a visitor accesses the entry phone, simulated dial tone is heard. After the visitor enters the appropriate
one to three digit tenant number (equal to the memory location in programming), the K-1900-3 dials the tenant's
phone number and bridges the phone line to the entry phone. If an unprogrammed tenant number is entered, a
simulated fast busy signal will be heard on the entry phone. When the tenant confirms the visitors identity, a one
or two digit relay activation code may be entered from the tenant's phone. Two beeps will indicate that a valid
activation code has been entered. A buzzing sound is then heard on the entry phone to indicate the door strike
has been activated. The level of this sound can be controlled independently from other tones by adjusting the
Doorstrike Buzz Volume Control (see Installation section B). If an incorrect relay activation code is entered, the
unit will disconnect. A simulated fast busy signal will also be returned to the entry phone if the telephone line has
become disconnected. A tenant may use their personal keyless entry code to let themselves in by taking the
entry phone off-hook and entering a "#" followed by their (4 - 6 digit) personal keyless entry code. Note: To avoid
busy signals on the entry phone, call waiting is recommended on each tenant's phone line.
B. Multi-Number Dialer Mode (relay activation codes ignored after dialing)
This mode is useful when using the K-1900-3 in applications other than apartment/multi-tenant entry, such as
Kiosks or any other user selectable speed dialing application when 250 phone numbers or less are required. An
off-hook on the phone port will return simulated dial tone. The user can then enter their one to three digit speed
dial memory location. The K-1900-3 speed dials the phone number programmed in that memory location then
bridges the phone to the line. The user is now free to dial any Touch Tone numbers required to steer through
automated attendants, etc. If the user attempts to pulse dial or flash the line for fresh dial tone (to make a toll
call), the K-1900-3 will restrict the call by switching the phone back to artificial talk battery with a simulated busy
signal. Note: If this phone is to receive in-bound calls, select the Ring Thru Mode (see Operation section C).
Also, keyless entry codes work, but there is no relay activation from the tenant's phone.
C. Ring Thru Mode
If the Ring Thru mode is selected (see Programming section E), incoming calls are allowed to ring through the
K-1900-3 to the entry phone connected to the phone port. If the door phone has an auto-answer feature, this will
allow the user to "monitor" the entry way. The K-1900-3 is still watching for the security code and will seize the
line if a valid code is detected. In this manner, the K-1900-3 may still be remotely programmed. In this mode the
relay activation code may also be used. If the Ring Thru mode is turned off, the K-1900-3 will answer all inbound
calls. Note: To utilize the Ring Thru mode with a K-1700-3 entry phone, automatic answer must be enabled on
the K-1700-3 (dip switch setting). See the K-1700-3 Technical Practice (DOD# 157).
D. Data Logging
Each time there is an entry point event, the K-1900-3 will transmit 1200 baud ASCII data out of its LOG BUS
screw terminals. An example of 5 different entry events is shown below. The K-1900-3 outputs entry event data
in real time, but does not time stamp.
Examples
Non-Valid Keyless Attempt
Valid Keyless Entry
A guest was granted entry by
tenant in memory location 007
911 was dialed at the entry phone
A guest talked to the tenant in memory
location 059, but was not granted entry
Entry point ID number (always 1)
If the entry attempt was: VALID (V) or
