A. General

The AES-2005 is designed to use the public

switched phone network as a link between

the door or gate entry of an apartment build-

ing and the individual tenant's apartment.

The system enables the tenant to speak to

the visitor before allowing them to enter the

building.

To gain access to a building, the

visitor must enter a code pertaining to the

apartment they wish to visit, and then speak

to a person in the apartment using the built in

hands-free phone.

The apartment tenant

could then dial a single digit "opener code" on

their Touch Tone phone to operate a door

strike to allow entry. If the apartment access

code is known, it may be entered by using the

telephone keypad.

If the apartment access

code is not known, the apartment directory can be used. The directory is displayed with 1/2" tall characters on the back-lit display. Alternatively,

the tenant names can be broadcast over the speaker. When the correct tenant name is displayed/announced, the user simply presses the "Call"

button and the AES-2005 speed dials the tenants apartment. You may also call a tenant by entering the person's phone number on the keypad.

If the phone number entered matches one of the pre-programmed access codes, that number will be dialed.

To avoid busy signals on the entry phone, call waiting is recommended on each tenant's phone line.

B. EZ™ Help Instructions

General operating instructions can be received by pressing the EZ™ Help button. The Help Message is displayed on the character display and

also broadcast over the speaker. When the EZ™ Help button is pressed followed by another button, a voice message and display will give the

function of that button. For one handed operation of the EZ™ Help messages, press the EZ™ Help button once, then press any other button on

the panel for help on it's operation. A second press of the same button will cancel the help mode and normal operation of the button will proceed.

The help voice will stay active through the entire length of the call.

C. Calling a Tenant

If the right arrow button is momentarily pressed, a name will be shown on the display and broadcast over the speaker*. If the right arrow button is

pressed again, the next name in the directory will be displayed and announced*. In this manner, the entire tenant directory, name by name, can be

reviewed. If the button is held, the voice directory* and display go into a high speed scan mode. The directory is always in alphabetical order, so

the user can quickly get an idea as to where they are in the directory. When the button is released, the full name at that point in the directory will

be announced* and displayed. If the desired name is passed, the user can press the left arrow button to reverse the direction and go back to the

desired name. If a person stops for a few seconds on a name, the message

buttons can be used to walk through the alphabet in the same manner. When the correct letter is reached, pressing the arrow button will display

and announce* the first name at that alphabet letter.

When the desired name is displayed and announced*, the visitor can press the "Call" button and the phone number for that tenant will be dialed.

When the dialing process starts, the audio from the phone line will be sent to the speaker and call progress information will be sent to the display.

When the tenant answers their phone,

itor's identity, a single digit "opener code" may be entered from the tenant's phone, a message will be displayed

is heard and the door strike will be activated. After a few seconds the AES-2005 will hang up automatically.

Announcements are only broadcast over the loud speaker if the

D. Other Controls

Each time the volume button is pressed, the volume of the speaker is increased. If maximum level is reached, the next press will roll the volume

level over to it's lowest level. The volume is reset to it's original starting point when the call is finished.

E. Keyless Entry

A tenant may use their personal keyless entry code to let themselves in by entering a "#" followed by their (1-6 digit) personal keyless entry code

on the AES-2005's keypad.

F. TTY

A TTY jack is available for TTY (teletypewriter) communication between tenants and the door.

G. Video Camera

The AES-2005 color video camera operates completely independently of the AES-2005 phone board. With power supplied to the camera, it will con-

tinuously ouput a video signal.
