Channel Vision TE-100 - Manual (Page 2)

Step 1: Wiring the TE-100 to the house telephone line
1. Mount the TE-100 near the incoming telephone line junction box.
2. Connect the incoming telephone line into the J3 Telco Line Input Ports.
3. Connect the outgoing telephone line to the J2 House Phone Output Ports.
Step 2: Wiring from the intercom zone to the TE-100
1. Connect the pair from the speaker to the J6 “Speaker” terminal.
2. Connect the pair from the doorbell button to the J4 “Doorbell” terminal.
3. If utilizing a door strike, connect this pair to the J5 “Strike 1” terminal.
4. A second door strike is available at J5 pin 3-4 location. If utilizing this second door strike, be sure to
set switch S2 to the “Door” position.
Installation
Step 3: Selecting your chime option
After completing Steps 1 and 2, your TE-100 is set up to send a distinctive ring throughout the phone sys-
tem once the doorbell is pressed. However, you also can select to have the doorbell chimes sound as well
by following these steps (see diagram 2):
1. Locate the power transformer used for the existing doorbell chimes.
2. Wire one of the transformer leads directly to one of the doorbell chimes’ input terminals.
3. Connect the other transformer lead to the TE-100’s J5-5 chimes terminal.
4. Run a wire from the J5-6 chimes terminal to the available doorbell chimes terminal. You will now hear
the doorbell chime and the phones ring when the doorbell button is pressed.
5. Check the S3 Chimes On/Off switch to be sure that it is set to On. You can disable the doorbell chime
at any time by switching S3 to the off position. If necessary, the doorbell’s sound or “ding dong” de-
lay can be adjusted by turning the TE-100’s R63 trimmer pot.
Step 5: Connecting the power supply
Connect the 14VDC power supply that came with the TE-100 to the J1 input terminal.
Step 4: Interface with audio systems for paging
The TE-100 includes a 600
Ω
balanced audio output for interfacing with multi-room audio systems. The
Door Strike 2, J5 pins 3-4 are used for the audio output feature.
1. Place switch S2 into the “Page” position.
2. Wire from the J8 terminals to the audio input of the multi-room processor.
3. Next, make connections between J5 3-4 and the audio processor’s contact inputs.
Operation
The TE-100 is operated from the touch-tone keypad of any house phone connected to it. When
the doorbell is pressed, the phones in the house will produce 3 short ring bursts.
To speak to the visitor : Pick up the telephone handset and press (**). You are now con-
nected to the intercom. You will notice that the speaker/microphone works in only one direc-
tion at a time. However, the telephone handset has the priority at all times during communica-
tion. Therefore, the homeowner can interrupt the visitor but the visitor can never interrupt the
homeowner.
If the phone is already in use : A high frequency tone (beep-beep) will sound in the re-
ceiver earpiece. These tones will continue until you press (**) to connect to the intercom.
Once (**) is pressed the person that was on the line will be put on hold until you finish by
pressing (#).
Automatic Door Unlocking : The door strike relays are activated by pressing (*7) for door
#1 and (*8) for door #2. Please note that the relay for door strike #2 is shared by the paging
feature. If the paging feature is activated, door strike #2 will do nothing.
Activating Paging Feature : Press (*5) to send the audio signal to the multi-room audio
processor. Strike #2 will be activated @ the same time.
Ending The Session : Pressing (#) ends the session and brings you back to where you were
before the visitor pressed the doorbell button.
Channel Vision’s TE-100 provides a convenient and cost effective communication
link between an entrance to every telephone in the house. Features include:

• Sends a signal through the receiver if the phone line is already in use
• Voice activated switching between the intercom and telephone ( no buttons to push )
• Can unlock two remotely located doors or gates
• Interfaces with multi-room audio processors for whole-house paging
• Works with lighted and non lighted doorbell buttons
• Up to 1000 ft. distance to speaker, doorbell and strike

Trouble Shooting:
Loud noise or squealing at the speaker: This is caused by the speaker amp be-
ing turned up too high. Adjust R8 Speaker trim pot.
Hear dial tone but nothing else works: The power supply is connected back-
wards. Reconnect it to the input terminal correctly.
Phones ring weak or incorrectly: Too many phones are on the house line. Pur-
chase a 15VDC 1 amp wall mount power supply.
Line cuts off and goes to dial tone: This is caused by a high impedance tele-
phone. See the enclosed information on High Impedance Telephones.
Voice cuts out when speaking to the visitor: This requires careful adjustment
of the sense trim. See the enclosed information on Speaker, Listen and Sense adjust-
ments.
