12. All the units, except for door station, is designed for indoor use
only. Do not use outdoor.
13. This product, being a control unit of door release, should not be
used as a crime prevention device.
14. It must be noted in advance that the LCD panel, thoughmanufactured with very high precision techniques, inevitably will
have a very small portion of its picture elements always lit or not lit
at all. This is not considered a unit malfunction.
15. Door station is weather-resistant, but do not spray high-pressure
water. Unit trouble could result.
16. Due to the environmental sound around the unit, it may hindersmooth communication, but this is not a malfunction.
17. Refrain from using the color monitor station in sunlit areas.
18. At night, due to reduced lighting on the object, the monitor sees
more noise and the face becomes more difficult to see, but this is
not malfunction.
19. For the hands-free communication:
If you stand too far away, it may be difficult for the other person tohear the communication.
20. If there are loud noises around the unit (such as music playing orchildren crying), the sound may break up and be difficult to hear.
21. During communication, if you speak before the other person
has finished talking, your voice may not come through clearly.
Communication will proceed smoothly if you wait until the otherperson has finished before speaking.
22. At a gate or porch illuminated by a fluorescent lamp, the picture
may vary, but this is not a malfunction.
23. The outline of video images displayed by video door station may
differ from that of the actual person(s) or background, but this is
not a malfunction.
24. If the surface of a video door station freezes during wintertime, thepicture may become difficult to see or the call button (including thecall button of audio door station) may not move, but this is not a
malfunction.
25. Aiphone assumes no responsibility for corruption of saved
information (such as changes to or deletion of saved information).
Please be aware of this in advance.
26. Warm-color lighting shining on the video door station may change
the tint of the picture on the monitor.

When receiving paging from a master station, by inputting an
external signal (for example, by pressing an external button
connected to the room sub station), answering the page can be
possible.
NOTE:
When using an IS-SS-2G audio door station, only a calling with the"Urgent" priority is possible.

Central control unit
(Example: when the trigger condition is set to broadcast chime)
When a sensor connected to the central control unit detects
abnormality or a connected external button is pressed, thecentral control unit transmits a chime to the set zone.
* It is also possible to set to stop the current chime paging.

Activating an external device by detecting
the designated action
You can set central control units, add-on control units and room
sub control units to activate the connected external devices
when detecting the designated action: a call with an appropriate
priority, door release, external sound input (central control unitonly) or PA output. The trigger condition can be designated by
the settings in the System setting on a PC.
