SURFACE BACK BOX WITH RAINSHIELD (VRSB120x280) Fig.3 REAR VIEW PANEL CARE he VR120 door panel is manufactured from brushed 12 Gauge 304 grade stainless steel. It is important that the facia is cleaned on regular occasions to prevent dirt build up and tarnishing of the metal. A general household metal polish can be used but care should be taken to follow the grain of the metal when polishing and always only polish in one direction with a soft cloth to avoid light scratching of the facia.
TESTING THE INSTALLATION • Check all the connections have been made correctly and are terminated properly into the terminals and then power up the system. • Check the voltage output on all of the power supplies. • Call all the apartments in turn. Check for the call tone to the apartment, speech in both directions, video signal (video systems only) and that the lock release operates.
ACCESSORIES CONNECTION GUIDE elow shows how to connect an extension sounder (Art.512A) and an extension strobe (ES/1) when fitted to an audio system. The same connections can be made when connecting to a video system. In some instances a separate 12Vdc power supply may be required when connecting an extension strobe when several 12Vdc devices are connected on the system, this is to avoid excessive current draw on the existing power supply.
