VIP-172AL Quick Start Installation
Step 1. An optional relay output is provided for activating electric door controls,
strike plates, gates, etc. A Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC)
connection is available. Consult the door equipment manufacturer's
documentation for connections to their device. The relay can be activated
by pressing the # key on the answering telephone.
Step 2. Connect the Door Plate to the Network Interface. If the Door Plate is close
to the Network Interface, a standard Patch Cable may be used to connect
between them (Figure A). For longer distances, the VM-186 RJ45 Junction
Boxes can be used to extend up to 350' between the Door Plate and Network
Interface (Figure B).
Step 3. Connect the RJ45 cable from the network. This device is powered via
Power over Ethernet (PoE). If PoE is unavailable from the network
switch then an inline power injector will be required.
Step 4. Program the VIP-172AL using the VIP-102B IP Solutions Setup Tool.
