The Door Box is a self-contained Intercom unit typically used to monitor an entrance door. A visi-
tor at the door can press the Door Box call button (like a door bell). The Door Box then sends
chime tones to all extensions programmed to receive chimes. To answer the chime, the called
extension user just lifts the handset. This lets the extension user talk to the visitor at the Door Box.
The Door Box is convenient to have at a delivery entrance, for example. It is not necessary to have
company personnel monitor the delivery entrance; they just answer the Door Box chimes instead.
Any number of system extensions can receive Door Box chime tones.
Each Door Box has a pair of normally open relay contacts that can connect to an electric door
strike. Use these contacts to remotely control the entrance door. After answering the Door Box
chimes, a system phone user can press FLASH to activate the Door Box contacts. This in turn
releases the electric strike on the entrance door. The device connected to the Door Box contacts
cannot exceed the contact ratings shown in the table below:
The system can have up to eight Door Boxes.
(A.) Each channel in the 2PGDAD has a jumper which must be set for Door Box operation. Refer
to the system hardware manual for additional details.
