6. Put the housing upper part to one side and take the housing base
in order to mark out the corresponding mounting holes at the
desired location for the external station.
7. Drill the mounting holes using a suitable 6 mm drill bit and insert
one of the supplied rawlplugs in each hole.
8. Feed the connecting cable through the cable feed-through and
screw the housing base to the wall.
9. Connect your installed cable to the connection terminals.
10. Then, to re-assemble the external station, perform steps 1 to 5 in
reverse order.
Note: If the luminous field and the name tags do not remain in
position by themselves, when it is time to put the stainless steel cover
on, the luminous field and name tags can be secured with a piece of
adhesive tape.
Customising the name tag and luminous field
The name tag consists of two transparent plastic halves,
joined by 2 screws.
1. Remove both screws and separate the name tag. The laminate for
labelling is between the two plastic halves.
2. Label the laminate with a permanent felt tip pen or print a name
tag for yourself, 71 x 15 mm in size, on a PC and printer.
3. Place the labelled name tag (laminate) between the two plastic
halves and screw them back together.
4. Make sure that the bottom plastic half is joined to the top one the
right way round.
The luminous field also consists of two plastic halves, one attached
permanently to the external unit, with the other being placed loosely
on top of that and held in position by the front cover. The dimensions of
the labelling field are 72 x 62 mm.
Connecting a door opener
The door opener is connected to the external station directly by means
of two cables. No additional power supply is needed to activate the
door opener. The door opener must be designed for 12 Volt DC opera-
tion and must not require a current greater than 1 A. For some door
openers it is necessary to make sure that the polarity is correct.
If a locking system is used instead of a normal door opener, we
recommend using the SDO-10 security door opener module. This means
that the locking system cannot be bypassed by simply unscrewing the
external station. More detailed information on the SDO-10 can be found
on our homepage (www.m-e.de).
CONNECTING UP
Once all components have been connected, connect the power supply
unit to the 230 V mains. Then ring the bell once to initialise the
system. This initialisation must always be performed whenever the
system has been without power.
ID SETTING
If several external stations are operated in parallel, an ID code must be
set for the external stations. This is done via 4 DIP switches (7) on the
external station.
The figure (1) shows the switch settings for ID codes 1 - 4.
VDV-500_I-Manual_Fin2.indd 8
By default, all DIP switches are set to the ON position (top), i.e. ID 1.
When using two external units, the second external unit is set to ID 2
and so on.
VOICE VOLUME
The voice volume of the external station is set with the potentiometer
(6). For full volume, carefully turn the potentiometer clockwise as far
as it will go and then turn it back a little. Turn anti-clockwise to reduce
the volume.

NOTES
The functionality of the unit can be affected by the influence of strong
static, electrical or high frequency fields (discharging, mobile phones,
radios, microwaves).
Cleaning and maintenance
Always disconnect mains powered units from the mains supply before
cleaning (disconnect the plug). The unit housing can be cleaned using
a soapy soft cloth. Do not use any abrasive materials or chemicals.
Remove dust build-up from ventilation slits using a brush and clean up
using a vacuum cleaner. Do not hold the vacuum cleaner nozzle directly
against the unit.
SAFETY INSTRUCTION
In the event of damage to the housing, connectors, power cables or
isolation shielding, switch off the device immediately and disconnect
from the mains power. ELECTRIC SHOCK – DANGER OF LOSS
OF LIFE. (Unplug the mains connector from the socket!). Damage
should be repaired immediately by a specialist!
Do not take the product apart! There is a danger of lethal electric
shock!
Never carry out repairs yourself!
For reasons of safety and licensing (CE), unauthorised conversion and /
or modification of the product is prohibited.
Do not leave packaging material lying about since plastic foils and
pockets and polystyrene parts etc. could be lethal toys for children.
In industrial institutions, the accident prevention regulations of the
Association of Commercial Professional Associations for electrical instal-
lations and equipment must be observed. Please consult a specialist
should you have doubts regarding the method of operation, the safety,
or the connections of the device.
