DKS Enterprises 1803PC Manuel D’Utilisation

 

•  Prior to beginning the installation of the telephone entry system, we suggest that you become 

familiar with the instructions, illustrations, and wiring guidelines in this manual.  This will help 
insure that you installation is performed in an efficient and professional manner. 

•  The proper installation of the telephone entry panel is an extremely important and integral 

part of the overall access control system.  Check all local building ordinances and building 
codes prior to installing this system.  Be sure your installation is in compliance with local 
codes. 

•  When used to control a door or pedestrian gate, try to locate the telephone entry system as 

near as possible to the entry point.  The unit should be mounted on a rigid wall to prevent 
excessive shock and vibration from closing doors or gates.  Continuous vibration and shock 
from slamming doors or spring-loaded pedestrian gates will damage the circuit board.  Under 
no circumstances should the unit be mounted directly to a moving door or gate. 

•  ADA mounting requirements for door control.  The mounting of the unit shall be in such a 

way that the LCD display is positioned so that it is readily visible to and usable by a person 
sitting in a wheelchair with an approximate eye level of 45 inches and shall comply with the 
following requirements: 

1.  If mounted vertically or tipped no more than 30 degrees away from the viewer, the 

center line of the LCD shall be located a maximum of 52 inches above grade. 

2.  If the clear floor space allows only forward approach to the system, the maximum 

high forward reach allowed is 48 inches above grade to the top of the keypad. 

3.  If the high forward reach to the system is over an obstruction of greater than 20 

inches but less than 25 inches, the maximum high forward reach allowed is 44 inches 
above grade to the top of the keypad. 

4.  If the clear floor space allows parallel approach by a person in a wheelchair, the 

maximum high side reach shall be 54 inches above grade to the top of the keypad. 

5.  If the high side reach is over an obstruction of 24 inches or less, the maximum high 

side reach allowed is 46 inches above grade to the top of the keypad. 

•  When used to control a vehicular gate with an automatic gate operator, the telephone 

entry system must be mounted a minimum of ten (10) feet away from the gate and gate 
operator, or in such a way that a person cannot operate the entry system and/or touch 
the gate or gate operator at the same time. 

•  Be sure that the system is installed so that it is not directly in the traffic lane.  Goose neck 

mounting post and kiosks work well for these type systems.  When planning where to locate 
the system, take into consideration traffic lane layouts, turn around lanes for rejected access, 
conduit runs, power availability, etc. 

•  Environmental factors must also be taken into account.  Surface mount units are designed for 

direct outdoor installations, however it is preferable to protect them from direct exposure to 
driven rain or snow whenever possible.  Flush mount and wall mount units must be protected 
from direct exposure to the elements.  Be sure that ample lighting is provided so that guest 
can read both the directory and the operating instructions at night. 

•  This telephone entry system contains a number of static sensitive components that can be 

damaged or destroyed by static discharges during installation or use.  Discharge any static 
prior to removing the circuit board from the lobby panel by touching a proper ground device.
