A. Introduction This manual describes the VS-600 Resident Unit and the peripheral devices available for use with it. It explains the diagnostic procedures and programming steps that must be completed prior to installation. A.1 VS-600 Resident Unit Overview The VS-600 Resident Unit is designed to allow hands-free and two-way communication between the resident and an attendant.
The Resident Unit is line powered from the single line station ports, eliminating the need for an external power supply. The Unit is designed for installation into a standard 3-gang electrical back box with 3-9/32" mounting centers. A.2 Overview of Peripheral Devices Described below are the peripheral devices that can function with the Resident Unit.
NC1-LD3 Dome Light The Dome Light is typically located outside the door of a room containing a VS-600 Resident Unit to provide a visual indication of calls originating from within the room. When a resident initiates a call, a LED in the Dome Light illuminates. The Dome Light contains three LEDs with white, red and green filters. Each lamp color represents a different call type that originates from the Resident Unit’s call button or call cord, a Pull Cord Station, or a Pendant.
B. VS-600 Programming B.1 Resident Unit Diagnostic Procedure Before programming and installing a Resident Unit, its diagnostic procedure first must be completed. To run the diagnostic procedure, plug the battery pack onto the two-pin header labeled BATTERY. Once plugged in, the Unit should perform the following actions: 1. The four front LEDs and the Cancel button light up momentarily, then the line and fault LEDs flash and the unit beeps.
B.2 Configuring the Resident Unit for Programming The VS-600 Resident Unit is programmed to operate in conjunction with the PBX using the Resident Unit configuration software. The Resident Unit programming cable (sold separately) plugs into the resident unit’s programming port and an available USB port of a PC running the Resident Unit configuration software. B.
B.3.1 Options Tab The Options Tab shows the configuration options of the resident unit. The options tab is split into two main areas: Set Number and Parameters. The Set Number area contains the dial strings, priority and dome light settings for each call device and for the menu and activities buttons. The Parameters area allows you to check the resident unit’s battery and internal clock. The Options Tab is subdivided into three tabs: Numbers, Supervision Numbers, and Misc.
button will be cancelled because of its lower priority, and the higher-priority device will dial its assigned number. Note: When a call device is triggered, there will be a delay of approximately five seconds before the destination is alerted. If the resident activates a higher priority device within five seconds of activating a lower priority device, the lower priority device will still be first to alert the destination.
Pendant low battery: The dial string the unit will call when a pendant’s battery is low. Wireless Pull Cord low battery: The dial string the unit will call when a wireless pull cord unit’s battery is low. Wireless Pull Cord no communication: The dial string the unit will call when it loses contact with the wireless pull cord. Repeat interval (hours): The resident unit will redial the dial string after a certain number of hours as long as the triggering condition is present.
Click Set beside Save options and config to file to upload the current settings to the resident unit. B.3.3 Prog./Config. Tab The Prog./Config. Tab contains programming and configuration settings for the resident unit. Use this tab to change the desired behaviour when a call goes unanswered, to upgrade the resident unit software, to configure the unit for use in a common area, or configure whether a call from the unit can be cancelled by dialling *9 at the destination.
The following table describes the effects of checking the Redial Primary or Redial Secondary boxes: Redial Primary Redial Secondary Result 1. Resident unit dials primary number. 2. Resident unit waits for the call to be answered or for the time in delay to elapse. 3. If the call is unanswered, the resident unit ends the call (hangs up). 1. Resident unit dials primary number. 2. Resident unit waits for the call to be answered or for the time in delay to elapse. ; 3. Resident unit dials secondary number.
B.3.4 Wireless Tool Tab The Wireless Tool Tab allows you to view a list of wireless devices programmed on the resident unit. A resident unit can support up to 4 wireless pendants and 4 wireless pull cords, for a total of 8 devices. If the maximum number of devices are programmed in the resident unit, one must be removed before a new one can be programmed. Use this tab to deprogram devices from the resident unit.
B.3.5 Log File Tab The Log File Tab allows you to review the resident unit’s log file. The log file is used for troubleshooting, but you will not need to access this tab in most situations. The log file stores the dates, times, and descriptions of the last 50 events. Log File Tab Click Load to download the log file from the resident unit.
