Bell View Video Entry System 1 Way

General Description

The bell

view Video Door Entry Telephone System is a high quality, versatile security product for controlling access to private houses, residential homes, blocks of flats and offices. The occupant is supplied with an individual video entry telephone, which enables them to view the person calling at the entrance; to converse with the caller; and if desired allow them access to the building via an electric lock release.

For a large flat or office, up to 3 extra video entry telephones (extension telephones) maybe used, enabling the occupant(s) to answer the caller from various locations, such as a kitchen or bedroom.

Video Telephone (model BV)

This is a slimline, wall-mounting unit, manufactured in high quality impact resistant ABS plastic. It has a 4" flat tube display with variable contrast and brightness, providing a high definition, high quality picture.

Entrance Panel (BVP series)

The BVP series aluminium panel is supplied with a flush-fitting back box. Stainless steel or brass Vandal Resistant panels are also available to order, engraved with the customers particular requirements. The panel includes a high quality two-way speech amplifier (model 61) concealed behind a grill, and a solid-state CCD camera (model

BV700) which is protected by a high impact strength lexan window. The camera includes four, high intensity infrared lamps for illumination of the caller at night time.

System Operation

General

The entrance panel, which includes the camera and speech unit, should be located on a wall adjacent to the building entrance. A visitor can contact the resident by pressing the call button on the entrance panel which will call the resident's video telephone

(sounding a buzzer), activating the display and enabling speech. The resident can view the caller on the video screen and by picking up the handset freely converse with the visitor. The telephone will remain active for a fixed period (adjustable 30-120 seconds).

If the resident wishes the caller to gain access to the building, the DOOR button can be pushed while the video telephone is still active; this will operate an electric lock release on the entrance door for a short period (adjustable, typically 5 seconds).

Privacy mode (buzzer mute)

To avoid disturbance from nuisance calls the resident may push the PRIVATE button on the video telephone. This will mute the buzzer for a fixed period (adjustable between

1 minute and 10 hours) and illuminate a red indicator lamp. Pushing the button again will reenable the buzzer and extinguish the lamp.

Monitor Mode

A resident may view the entrance at any time by pressing the telephone VIEW button

(This feature may be disabled if required).

Systems with extension telephones

When a visitor contacts a resident by pressing the call button, all telephones within the resident’s dwelling will buzz, but the display will not automatically illuminate. The occupant can then press the VIEW button on the nearest telephone to activate the display and enable speech as above.

Bell View Video Entry System 1 Way

Important Safety Information

Connections to the 240V AC mains supply must be carried out by a qualified electrician or similar competent person, and made in accordance with accepted safety practices.

A two-pole switch (as provided by a Consumer Unit or Switch-Fuse) must be included to isolate both Live and Neutral during Installation or Maintenance. The circuit must be protected by a fuse or other current-limiting device, rated according to the capacity of the cable used, up to a maximum of 10A. Use only mains cable to BS6004 or equivalent, within the following specified limits:

Conductor Diameter

Cable Diameter

Min

1.0mm (0.8mm

2 )

4.0mm

Max

2.25mm (4mm 2 )

8.0mm

The M540 power supply is fitted with an internal mains fuse; always replace with the correct type and rating. The fuse must be of the 20mm glass type, approved to BS EN

60127 or equivalent:

T250mA 250V ( 250mA, 250V, Time delay)

Environment

All equipment except the entrance panel must be placed in a protected indoor environment.

Video Telephone

The display module of the video telephone has a high voltage circuit (2KV) which represents a shock hazard. When the top cover of the telephone is removed, precautions must be taken to avoid contact with this module.

540 Power Supply

210 Surface Lock Release (fail-secure)

The model 206 lock release can be supplied instead of a 210, if fail-safe operation is required. Refer to page 7.

Model 540 Power Supply

Read the section called ‘Important Safety Information’ before installing the power supply.

The power supply must be wall-mounted onto plasterboard, wood or a similar nonconductive material, in a protected indoor environment such as an electrical cupboard.

When fitting the power supply cable (both mains and low voltage) ensure the cable entry cutouts in the enclosure lid are no larger than necessary for the cable diameter used and under no circumstances must they be taken beyond the outer cutout zones.

Entrance Panel

Careful consideration should be given to the location of the entrance panel to ensure the best possible lighting conditions for the camera. In general strong backlighting of the subject ( by the sun and sky) should be avoided as the contrast between foreground and background may be too great for the camera. The field of view should contain as little of the sky as possible, particularly if south facing. A wall or other buildings would be preferable. If a backlit situation is unavoidable, additional lighting may be necessary to illuminate the caller and avoid a dark outline image.

The panel should be mounted at an optimum height of 1.6 m, measured between the ground and camera window.

6

Bell View Video Entry System 1 Way

Electric Door Release

The system is supplied with a Fail-Secure release (FAIL-SECR connections), which requires power to release the lock and will secure the door upon power failure. Fail-Safe

(FAIL-SAFE connections) lock releases and magnetic locks can also be connected, requiring continuous power to hold the lock and releasing the door upon power failure.

All of these types can be accommodated providing they are rated at 12V DC with a maximum current consumption of 0.5A. For lock releases that have different requirements contact your distributor for further guidance.

When installing lock releases please allow a little movement on the door as operation will be impaired if fitted too tight.

Video Telephones

(Refer to diagram 1)

Refer to the ‘Commissioning’ section for further information.

The model 500PX series telephone (depending on the features required) maybe used in place of one or more video telephones, if audio only is required.

Up to 3 extension video telephones maybe fitted. If more than 4 video telephones are required refer to your distributor or the manufacturer for further guidance.

To adjust the BRIGHTNESS and CONTRAST of the picture adjust the two thumbwheel controls at the left hand side of the telephone.

Buzzer mute time

This is he time for which the telephone buzzer will be switched off when the buzzer mute button is pressed. Set between 1 minute and 10 hours (see SW2 settings, overleaf).

Call Active time

The telephone active time is the duration for which the telephone remains active

(display and speech) when called. Set between 30 and 120 seconds (see SW2 settings overleaf).

Auto - Display option

This option allows the display and speech to activate when the telephone is called; when deselected the telephone will buzz, but display and speech will not activate until the VIEW button is pressed, refer to page 10.

On systems with extension video telephones, to avoid an excessive power supply requirement, this option must be disabled.
