SECTION 2 – WIRING
Prior to installing wiring to 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 wiring of the telephone entry panel is an extremely important and integral part of the
overall access control system. Use proper wire for the communication line, power wires, and
be sure that the system is properly grounded. Check all local building ordinances and
building codes prior to installing this system. Be sure your installation is in compliance with
local codes.
Telcom Access Standards. It is not permissible for customers to use the telcom network lead-
in cable to provide the intercom function between the gate and the house.
New Zealand Customers: All door and gate entry systems wiring must comply with PTC106:
March 2008, Section 9.
WARNING: If this telephone entry system is 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 the user cannot come into
contact with the gate or gate operator when using this entry system. If this unit has been
installed closer to the automated vehicular gate, do not proceed with any wiring until the unit
has been moved and re-installed so that it is in compliance with these instructions.
Use only the supplied transformers (or U.L. listed equivalent) to power the telephone entry and
access control system (16.5 VAC, 20 VA for 1833, 1834 and 1835, 16.5 VAC, 40 VA for 1837) and
any weigand input devices (16.5 VAC, 20 VA). Do not power any other devices (electric strikes,
magnetic locks, etc.) from these power transformers. NOTE: Transformers are not supplied on units
sold outside the United States. An Inherently Protected Transformer must be used to power this
device. Use only transformers that are listed by a recognized testing laboratory to power the
telephone entry system.
For wire runs up to 100 feet, use 18 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire. For wire runs up to 200 feet, use
16 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire. Power wires are susceptible to noise and hum pickup; therefore it is
preferable that you keep power wire runs as short as possible.
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.
