Conditions of use
The radio range is limited by radio appliance control standards. The radio range is heavily dependent on the environment in which it is used: interference may be caused by having large-scale electrical equipment near the installation and by the type of material used in the walls and partitions. The use of radio appliances (e.g. a set of Hi-Fi radio headphones) operating on the same radio frequency might be detrimental to the product’s performance. The purpose of this videophone camera is to identify a visitor; under no circumstances should it be used to monitor the street.

ADDING A MONITOR
Installing the additional monitor in one residence
Disconnect the mains adapter from the main monitor.
-
Fix the monitor mounting plate to the wall.
Important: The monitor mounting brackets must come out towards you.
Note: All the wires must pass inside the mounting bracket so they can be connected to the monitor. -
Remove the DC connector from the rear of the monitor, then connect the mains adaptor cable to this connector: white wire with grey lines at the top (+) and completely white wire at the bottom (-).
Important: It is essential to use the mains adaptor provided to power the monitor.
Important: The mains adaptor must be installed close to the monitor and must be easily accessible. -
Connect the mains adaptor connector to DC at the rear of the monitor as shown in the illustration (screw to the left).
Important: Do not connect the mains adaptor to a socket until all the wiring is completed.
-
Prepare the connection for the additional monitor to the main monitor by connecting a 2-wire cable to the P2 connector at the rear of the monitor and respecting the polarities:
- M+ of the additional monitor to the M+ of the main monitor.
- M- of the additional monitor to the M- of the main monitor.
Note: Identify the wires used for the P2 connector of the main monitor in order to wire the additional monitor correctly.
Note: Connector P1 is not used as the door station is connected to the main monitor.
-
Identify the position of the switch (18) on the residence’s main monitor and position the switch (18) on the additional monitor in the same position.
Note: For an installation for a single residence, the switch (18) must be set to position 2. -
Clip the monitor onto its mounting bracket by first positioning the top of the monitor on the station, then the bottom.
Note: Position the mains power adapter wires between the mounting bracket and the monitor.
Installing a main monitor in a second residence
The V300 can be adapted to a two-residence format with a multi-button station.
However, this type of installation requires the addition of a junction box
(not supplied in the kit) to be placed between the door station and the
monitors in each (see diagram below). The monitors are installed as per the
standard installation (see section “4.1 Installation for one residence” of the
instructions for the V300 kit) with a maximum distance of 100 m between the
door station and the monitor furthest away. When wiring, the mains adaptors of
residence 1 and residence 2 must be disconnected from the mains. For each
residence, the polarities must be respected (see section “5.1 Wiring the door
station” of the instructions for the V300 kit):
– M+ of the monitor to M+ of the door station.
– M- of the monitor to M- of the door station.
Before installing the monitors, the switch (18) at the rear of the monitors
must be configured to distinguish between the two residences and thus be able
to use the two call buttons on the door station:
Switching the installation on
Once installation is complete, reconnect the mains adaptors of the monitors.\
The installation is ready to use.
REPLACING A MONITOR
Disconnect the mains power unit from the monitor being replaced.
- Unhook the monitor being replaced from its mounting bracket by sliding it upwards.
- Mark the connectors so that they can be reconnected in the same order on the new monitor:
- Identify the position of the switch (18).
- Disconnect the connectors of the monitor being replaced by pulling them upwards slightly
-
Remove the connectors supplied with the new monitor by pulling them slightly upwards and put them to one side in the event they are required.
-
Position the switch (18) on the new monitor in the same position as that on the monitor being replaced.
-
Connect the mains adaptor connector at the rear of the monitor to the DC terminal as shown in the illustration
Important: Do not connect the mains adaptor to a socket until all the wiring is completed. -
The connect the second connector to terminal P2 and the third connector to terminal P1 (depending on the configuration of the installation).
-
Clip the monitor onto its mounting bracket by first positioning the top of the monitor on the station, then the bottom.
Note: Position the mains power adapter wires between the mounting bracket and the monitor.
Switching the installation on
Once installation is complete, reconnect the gate motorization to the power
supply.
Next connect the monitor mains adapter to an electrical socket.

WIRELESS CONTROL OF SOMFY RTS EQUIPMENT
The monitor is equipped with a Somfy Radio Technology (RTS) transmitter. It is only compatible with devices equipped with Somfy Radio Technology (RTS). It is used to control the following Somfy equipment, individually or simultaneously:
- garage door motorization,
- lighting receiver,
- roller blind motorisation,
- gate motorisation. (for a SOMFY RTS gate motorisation sold in DIY superstores, see the instructions for the V300 kit, section “7.3.1 Programming the gate motorisation in the monitor memory”),
- Etc.
This functionality is possible thanks to a system of radio channels identified by indicator lights at the bottom of the monitor. Each channel corresponds to an individual remote control and can be used to control one or more devices. There is no limit to the number of devices that can be controlled by a single channel. To control a channel, simply press one of the “open/on” (5), “stop” (6) or “close/ off” (7) buttons.
Important: Check that the equipment to be controlled is wireless and within the radio range of the monitor.
Adding an RTS device (radio technology Somfy
To add an RTS device (radio technology Somfy), you must carry out 2 steps:
- identify the original RTS control for the equipment (remote control, transmitter, etc.)
- pair the monitor with the RTS device on the channel of your choice
Example: Adding a Somfy RTS roller shutter
-
Identify the original control of the roller shutter, i.e. the remote control or the control point which only controls this roller shutter.
Note:- If the original control is lost or broken, and it is the only one that controls the roller shutter, contact one of our Somfy advisers.
- If another control operates the roller shutter, use that to follow the steps below.
-
Partially open the roller shutter using the original control.
-
Press the original control’s PROG button for at least 3 seconds: the product reacts (for example, with a brief up and down movement or a series of 3 BEEPS). The programming function is activated for 2 minutes.
Note: If you cannot locate the PROG button on your control point, refer to the instructions. -
Select a free channel by pressing the “SELECT” button (8) on the monitor.
-
Press the PROG button (14), located at the bottom right of the monitor, for 1 second.
-
Check that pairing has worked by pressing an open or close button. 9.2 Removing Somfy RTS equipment It is possible to delete control of a Somfy RTS device: when a device is already paired to the monitor, beginning the procedure described above again cancels the pairing.
Wireless control of a Somfy RTS device via the monitor
- Selected the channel associated with the device that you want to control by pressing the SELECT button (8): the indicator light of the channel selected flashes (or the 4 indicator lights flash for channel 5). Press the channel selection button as many times as necessary until the indicator lights show the required channel.
- Control your equipment using the Open/On, STOP and Close/Off buttons on the monitor. The equipment will react as stated in the table below:
Equipment controlled| | Press button:|
---|---|---|---
Open/on (5)| STOP (6)| Close/off (7)
Garage door| Open| Stopped (if the door is moving)| Closed
Lighting| On| | Of
Roller shutter| Open| Stopped (if the roller shutter moving) • Favourite
position (if the roller shutter is stopped)| Closed
Gate| Open| Stopped (if the gate is moving)| Closed
