Pre-installation

1 Find the best exterior location for the Door Station. See
"Mounting tips" below.
2 Install the Door Station Back Box. See the Door Station Back
Box Installation Guide for details.
3 Determine which network and power options to use (see
"Network options" and "Power options").
4 (WiFi only) If not using Ethernet, a strong, reliable
WiFi signal is required. Before the Door Station is fully
installed, test the WiFi signal strength in Composer Pro's
System Manager. See the Composer Pro User Guide
(

Mounting tips

Follow these tips for the best results.
1 Install the Door Station in a place where it will be protected
from water (for example, rain and sprinklers).
2 Do not expose the Door Station to direct sunlight. If the sun
hits the Door Station, we recommend that you purchase the
Satin Nickel model (C4-DCS-EN-SN) to reduce fading and
degradation of the Door Station.
3 Find the best exterior location for the Door Station. See the
Door Station Back Box Installation Guide for instructions.
• Mount the Door Station where the video camera is aimed
at an average person's height so the person inside the
building gets a good view of the person calling in.
• Mount the Door Station so that the caller can comfortably
speak into the microphone (about two feet/60 cm away).
4 We do not recommend using WiFi for an exterior installation.
If you must use WiFi, however, follow these guidelines:
• WiFi signal strength at th exterior location must be strong.
• Verify that the Door Station works correctly.
