AES 703-HF-IBK3-US Spartan 703 Modular Wireless Audio Intercom System Instruction Manual

AES 703-HF-IBK3-US Spartan 703 Modular Wireless Audio Intercom System

Mounting the Intercom

Mount the intercom at the desired height for pedestrian or car users. The camera angle is wide at 90 degrees to cover most scenarios.
Tip: Do not drill holes in the wall with the intercom in position, otherwise dust may get around the camera window and impair the camera view.

Mounting the Transmitter

Tip: The transmitter should be mounted as high as possible on the gate pillar or wall to maximise range. Mounting close to the ground will reduce range and is also more likely to be further restricted by long wet grass, overhanging shrubs and vehicles.

SITE SURVEY
TIP: You must test to ensure that the system is capable of operating across the desired range. Power the system on and place the handsets in their expected locations around the property to ensure that the system is fully functional and suitable for the site.

• Please read this entire manual before installing this product. A full comprehensive manual is available on our website for additional information.
• Set up on a bench in workshop BEFORE going to site. Program the unit in the comfort of your work bench and call technical support should you have any questions.

POWER CABLE

TIP: Most technical calls received are due to installers using CAT5 or alarm cable to power the unit. NEITHER are rated to carry enough power! ( 1.2amp peak )
Please use the following cable:

• Up to 2 metres ( 6 feet ) – Use minimum 0.5mm2 ( 18 gauge )
• Up to 4 metres ( 12 feet ) – Use minimum 0.75mm2 ( 16 gauge )
• Up to 8 metres ( 24 feet ) – Use minimum 1.0mm2 ( 14 / 16 gauge )

Handsets

• Tip: For longer range installations, locate the handset close to the front of the property, near a window if possible. Concrete walls can reduce the open-air range of 450 meters by 30-50% per wall.
• Tip: To achieve best range, locate the handset away from other sources of radio transmission, including other cordless phones, wifi routers, wifi repeaters, and laptops or PCs.

703 Handsfree (Wall Mount) Receiver
External antenna / receiver can be purchased separately from your local distributor.

OPTIMAL RANGE
TIP: For longer range installations, locate the handset closest to the front of the property and near a window if possible. Also ensure the antenna is mounted pointing towards the handset. Concrete walls can reduce the normal open-air range of up to 450 meters by 30-50% per wall.

Occasionally the system may need to be re-coded once installed. If the handset does not ring when the call button is pressed, the system may need to be re-coded.

• ( Step 1) Press and hold the CODE BUTTON inside the Transmitter Module for 5 seconds until the audible tone is heard from the Intercom speaker.
  ( On 703 Transmitter the blue LED marked D17 should also flash. )

• ( Step 2) Then press the CODE BUTTON 14 times and wait until the melody is heard or the LED turns off. Performing this step will remove ALL handsets currently synced (or partially synced) to the system.
  ( Note: Doing this step will also clear ALL voicemails after reset. )

• ( Step 3) Press and hold the CODE BUTTON inside the Transmitter Module for 5 seconds until the blue pairing LED marked as D17 begins to flash.
  ( An audible tone will be heard from the Intercom Speaker. )

• ( Step 4) Then press and hold the CODE BUTTON on the handset until the red LED at the top begins to flash. After a few seconds you will hear a melody play to let you know it has successfully connected.
  ( Repeat Steps 3 & 4 for each new handset. )

• ( Step 5) Finally you should test the kit to ensure that everything is working as expected by pressing the Call Button on the CallPoint to ensure the handset and/or wall mounted unit receives the call and that the two way speech is functioning correctly.

KEYPAD CODE LIST TEMPLATE

PROX ID LIST TEMPLATE

USE THIS AS A TEMPLATE OF HOW TO KEEP TRACK OF ALL OF THE KEYPAD CODES SAVED WITHIN THE KEYPAD. FOLLOW THE FORMAT FROM THE EXAMPLES SET AND IF MORE TEMPLATES ARE REQUIRED THEY CAN BE FOUND ON OUR WEBSITE OR FOLLOW THE QR CODE PROVIDED.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• Q. The unit will not ring the handset.
  A. Try recoding the handset and transmitter as per instructions.

  • Check push button wiring to the transmitter with multi meter.
  • Check power cable distance from power adaptor to transmitter is less than 4 meters.

• Q. The person on the handset can hear interference on the call.
  A. Check cable distance between the speech unit and transmitter. Shorten this if possible.

  • Check cable used between the speech unit and transmitter is screened CAT5.
  • Check that the screen of the CAT5 is connected to ground in the transmitter as per wiring instructions.

• Q. Keypad code not operating the gate or door
  A. Check if the corresponding relay indicator light comes on. If it does, then the fault is either a power problem with excessive cable run, or wiring. If the relay can be heard clicking, then it is a wiring problem. If a click cannot be heard, then it is likely a power problem. If the light does not activate and the keypad emits an error tone, then the issue is likely a programming error.

• Q. My handset will not recode
  Try the process again. If it still does not work, delete the code from the transmitter. To delete code, press the code button for 3 seconds and release. Then press it 7 times after which a tone should be heard. Then press another 7 times. Now try re coding the handset again as per the procedure.

• Q. Range problem Handset works beside the intercom, but not from inside the building
  A. Check that the power cable to the transmitter is within guidelines and is heavy enough gauge. Insufficient power cabling will reduce transmission power! Check that there are not excessive objects blocking the signal, like large dense shrubs, vehicles, foil lined wall insulation etc. Try to achieve line of sight between both devices.

• Q. No speech in either direction
  A. Check CAT5 wiring between speech panel and transmitter. Disconnect, re strip cables and re connect again.

• Q. Handset will not charge
  A. Try replacing both batteries with equivalent Ni Mh batteries firstly. It is possible to have a dead cell in a battery which can prevent both batteries from charging.

  • Check for contamination or grease on the charging pins at the base of the handset (gently scratch with screwdriver or wire wool).

Note: The manufacturer cannot legally offer technical support to non qualified gate or door installers. End users should employ the services of a professional install company to commission or support this product!

INTERCOM MAINTENANCE
Bug ingress is a common issue in unit failures. Ensure that all components are sealed accordingly and check occasionally. (Do not open the panel in the rain / snow unless correctly equipped to keep the internals dry. Ensure the unit is securely closed after maintenance) Ensure that the transmitter box (603/703) or antenna (705) do not get blocked by trees, shrubs or other obstacles overtime as this may disrupt the signal to the handsets. If you have an AB, AS, ABK, ASK callpoint it will have silver edges which are marine grade stainless steel so in normal weather conditions should not rust however it can dull or dis colour over time. This can be polished with a suitable stainless steel cleaner and cloth.
