Precautions for wiring
Cable
- Use a parallel 2-conductor wiring cable for connection of a video door station.
- Select a PE (polyethylene)-insulated PVC jacket cable for low voltage wiring.
- A coaxial cable cannot be used.
- A 2-pair quad-type vinyl sheathed cable cannot be used.
- For wiring, separate them for audio/video and door release and keep them more than 10 cm (3-15/16") away from each other.
- If existing wiring is used, the device may not operate properly. In that case, it will be necessary to replace the wiring.
- When using existing cables, check for short circuit and disconnection before installation.
- Disconnection check (6Ω or less)
Connect the ends of one side and make a measure at the other side with a tester.
- Short circuit check: ∞Ω (Infinity)
- To connect low voltage wires, either crimp them with a crimp sleeve or solder them, and then insulate by covering with insulating tape.
How to connect low voltage wires each other
Crimping with a crimp sleeve
- Twist the stranded conductor around the solid conductor at least three times, then crimp them.
- Overlap more than half of the width and twist them at least twice.
Soldering
- Twist the stranded conductor around the solid conductor at least three times.
- Bend the tip and solder it. Make sure no lead wire sticks out.
- Overlap more than half of the width and twist them at least twice.
