VISTADOOR VIDEO OUTDOOR UNIT
Thank you for purchasing a VISTADOOR Video Outdoor Unit. You have
purchased a high-quality product with stainless steel cover. The stainless
steel covers are carefully hand-crafted and therefore have features
unique to each of them and which should be seen as a mark of quality
in themselves.
How to care for stainless steel
Never clean stainless steel surfaces with standard cleansing agents, as
these are too abrasive. Clean only using stainless steel cleaner or care
spray. If none is available, just use clean water.
Make sure you follow these tips on care, otherwise discolouration may
occur, or even rust damage.

INSTALLATION
The following cables are needed:
One-family house: Four cables from the external unit to the internal
unit, and two from the external unit to the door opener.
Two-family house: Four cables per bell push, so eight cables in total
at the external station (four cables in apartment A and four cables in
apartment B), and two cables from the external unit to
the door opener.

Additional internal units can be connected to the first internal unit in
parallel. We recommend star wiring for the system, i.e. the cables of all
devices meet at a star point in the house and are connected together
accordingly. The power supply unit for the system power supply should
likewise be mounted at the star point so as not to increase
the cable length.
The cables should be laid so that they each exit the wall behind the
relevant external/internal unit.
NOTE: You can also use the VISTADOOR system in combination with
video and audio components.
NOTE: Various connection diagrams can be found in the service area
on our homepage (www.m-e.de).
Connecting the power supply
We recommend feeding in the power supply at the star point, as shown
on the example connection diagram. Should this not be possible, the
power supply can also be connected to the internal or external station.
Separate screw terminals are provided for this. One power supply unit
can supply power to up to 8 units. For more than eight units, a second
power supply unit is needed. This should preferably be connected to the
most remote station.
NOTE: Since functions may be adversely affected by interference, it
is often useful to connect the negative pole of the power supply unit
output to the equipotential bonding (earthing).
NOTE: Do not connect the power supply unit to the mains until the
system has been fully installed. Otherwise short circuits may occur
during installation that could irreparably damage the units.
NOTE: The external station is splashproof according to IP44. During
heavy rain, especially if there are also strong winds, water may
nevertheless penetrate the housing. We therefore recommend that the
unit is only mounted in a sheltered location outside. If installation in
a sheltered location outside is not possible, a weather protective cover
should be mounted over the external station.
MOUNTING
Before fitting the external station in the desired location, you should
connect up the system with an internal station for test purposes and
try it out at the desired location. This will allow you to be sure that the
camera adequately captures visitors. Furthermore, the wall should be
level, and when screwing the external station in place make sure that
it does not warp.
1. Unscrew the two screws (14) which fix the front cover in place and
remove them from the external station.
2. Lift off the stainless steel front cover. To do this, grasp the sides
with your fingers while pressing the name tag back with both
thumbs. The large luminous field may become stuck and you may
need to press it back a bit.
3. The housing screws (2) and the screws (4) for the terminal cover
(3) can now be accessed. First, unscrew the screws for the terminal
cover and place the terminal cover to one side.
4. Unscrew the 6 housing screws (2) and place them to one side.
5. Now carefully detach the housing base from the housing upper
part. The two 6-pin plugs which connect the main board to the
connection terminals can now be removed.
