Installation Settings - Niles DBI-1 Installation Manual

INSTALLATION SETTINGS
Contact Closure Triggers - Contact closure trigger inputs provide for two independent chime
triggers. When triggered, the selectable trigger tone, assigned delay and chime are executed.
3V-30V Voltage Triggers
- Voltage trigger inputs provide for two independent chime triggers. When
triggered, the selectable trigger tone, assigned delay and chime are executed.
When in Lighted Doorbell Mode the DBI-1 's door number one input requires a constant Voltage
and the collapse of that voltage initiates the chime. Use the DBI-1 's Trigger output to provide voltage
to illuminate a single Lighted Doorbell Button.
(See

Lighted Doorbell Mode - Press and hold the Record Button for 10-15 seconds, the Record LED
will blink three (3) times. This will indicate door number one (1) has been placed in Lighted doorbell
Button Mode.
The Voltage Trigger output will now be outputting a continuous voltage that will provide the 12V to
illuminate the button and Door number one's (1) Voltage Input.
NOTE: 1. DO NOT USE THE AC POWER DISTRIBUTION IN AN EXISTING DOORBELL SYSTEM. 2 PRESS
AND HOLD THE RECORD BUTTON FOR 10-15 SECONDS, THE RECORD LED WILL BLINK TWO (2)
TIMES AND THIS WILL RESTORE THE DBI-1 TO ITS ORIGINAL SETTINGS.
NOTE: VOLTAGE TRIGGERS ARE NOT POLARITY DEPENDENT.
Chime and Audio Level Adjustments
- Adjustable output level for the selected chime and the
connected paging system.
NOTE: THE AUDIO LEVEL ADJUSTMENT DOES NCT AFFECT AN AUDIO INPUT SIGNAL THAT IS BEING
RECORDED FORA CUSTOM CHIME. THE CUSTOM CHIME RECORD LEVEL MUST BE ADJUSTED EXTERNAL
AT THE AUDIO SOURCE. IMPORTANT: LOWERING THE CHIME AND AUDIO LEVEL WILL PREVENT SOUND
DISTORTION.

Setting the Tone/Delay
- Four DIP switches provide a selectable
trigger tone and various delays between when a chime is triggered
and when the chime is actually generated.
Turning switch 1 ON enables a trigger tone that activates the audio
sensing of the Paging Input of a Niles MultiZone System. Switches
2,3 and 4 ON enable delay times. The delay time provided for each
switch is indicated in the table below.
Delay times are summed together when multiple switches are selected (e.g. 2 and 3 = 3 seconds).
There is no delay included if none of these DIP switches are selected.
NOTES:
1. THE CHIME CONTACT AND VOLTAGE TRIGGERS ARE IGNORED DURING A CHIME.
2. A TRIGGERED CHIME IS DELAYED 8 SECONDS AFTER THE COMPLETION OF A CHIME WHEN A
TRIGGER TONE OR ANY AMOUNT OF DELAY 6 SELECTED.
