AES Global STYLUS-AUD-4.3-US StylusCOM Audio Hardwired System

Product Information

The StylusCOM Audio – Hardwired System is a comprehensive audio monitoring system designed for property security. It includes StylusCOM monitors, a call station, and optional programmable keypad. The system is capable of operating on various sites and provides an IP55 rating for protection against ingress.
The system requires a power supply for operation. It is recommended to use the provided 24v power supply for the StylusCOM kit. In case of greater distances or multiple monitors, additional power supplies may be required (sold separately). It is important to avoid using CAT5 or alarm cables for powering the unit as they are not rated to carry enough power.
The system features surge protection for the power supply, especially in lightning-prone areas. Sealing instructions are provided to maintain the IP55 rating and prevent issues caused by insects.

OPTIMAL RANGE

TIP : To get the most range out of the system we would recommend keeping the separate power supply as close as possible to the audio monitor. If chaining multiple monitors together use the SLAVE inputs and outputs – see supplement wiring diagram which will provide more information on the specific requirements and max distances.

MAGNETIC LOCK EXAMPLE

Follow this method when using a magnetic lock. If the relay in either the Call Station or optional AES Keypad is triggered it will temporarily lose power and allow the door/gate to release. For installs without the optional AES Keypad; connect the POSITIVE of the Magnetic Lock PSU to N/C terminal on Call Station Relay

INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR AUDIO MONITOR

AC/DC STRIKE LOCK WIRING EXAMPLE

Follow this method when using a Strike Lock with the system. If used it will mean that if a relay in either the Call Station or optional AES Keypad is triggered it will temporarily allow the door/gate to release.

KEYPAD PROGRAMMING

PROGRAMMING CODE NOT WORKING?

Note : In the event that the programming code has been forgotten or changed by accident, a DAP Reset of the keypad can be performed during the 60 second bootup phase. Pressing the PTE during this time or replicating this by shorting terminals 9 & 15 together with a jumper link the keypad will emit 2 short beeps if this step has been performed successfully. Then enter the DAP Code (Directly Access Programming Code) (8080**) on the front of the keypad as a backdoor into programming mode which will allow you to now set a new programming code, as per Step 6 above.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Q: I cannot hear the visitor at the gate/door.
A: Check that the cable distance and type between the monitor and gate is within spec.
A: Check that the gate/door station and monitor are powered separately for cable distances of more than 10 metres.
A: Check that the gate/door station microphone sensitivity is at minimum, and the speaker in the gate/door station is turned below 1/3rd volume, and that the monitor speaker volume is at 1/3rd and try again.
A: Check cable cores are not mixed up.
A: Try trimming and re-stripping the cable ends in case of a break. Use a multi-meter on Bell mode to check for breaks.
A: If using additional monitors, try it with only one monitor connected first.
A: Test the gate/door station and the monitor on a test bench or workshop, or inside the house on a shorter cable run (note feedback may prevent sound in one or both direction unless devices are in separate rooms).
Q: I can only hear the visitor faintly, but if I increase the volume on the monitor, I can hear interference and noise.
A: The cable type is not ideal, or too long. Try doubling up cores on the audio wires to see if that helps. If not, you may need to consider upgrading the cable.
Q: Only one monitor is working.
A: Check that the first connected monitor is setup as a MASTER monitor, and that subsequent monitors are configured as SLAVE devices in the onscreen menu.
Q: The keypad accepts a code, but does not open the gates / door.
A: Check the relay is closing with a multi-meter on bell mode. If the relay changes state, then check wiring and ensure the keypad is connected to the gate system or lock as well as the communication part of the gate/door station (connect in parallel for gates or strike lock, series for magnetic door lock). If the relay does not change state when a code is entered, then the problem is most commonly cause by the keypad not getting enough current draw on the power cable being used. Check the power cable is within spec of this manual.

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.
