GF 2-WIRE MULTI-UNIT ENTRY SYSTEM TECHNICAL INFORMATION FOR INSTALLATION & TROUBLESHOOTING Installation Hint: Since each phone

must be programmed individually via the process described below, it is suggested that the system be wired up on a bench and programmed before being installed in a building. In this way, one person can program the entire system, and all functions can be tested for proper operation before being installed. Otherwise, two people will be required to program the system. Programming the Room Stations on the GF System: 1. Remove front panel. 2. Lift rubber cap located on the right side of the speaker module. 3. Using wrench provided or a small screwdriver, momentarily press the programming button. 4. In-Use LED will begin blinking will blink for approximately 15 seconds, then will become steadily lit. 5. After In-USE LED is steadily lit, lift the first handset to be programmed. (Only one handset can be programmed at a time.) Communication will be present. 6. Momentarily press the station button (in the GF-SW) that is designated to call that location (handset). A single beep will be heard. 7. Hang up handset. 8. If the apartment has a second station: 1. Lift that handset. 2. Press the same call button on the entrance panel. Two Beeps will be heard 3. Hang up handset 9. Repeat steps 5 through 8 for each handset. 10. When programming is completed, press programming switch again. In-Use LED will turn off. 11. The system is now in regular operating mode. 12. Secure rubber cap and replace front panel. Setting the Entrance Station Number: 1. The default setting of the GF-DA is for entrance station #1. If multiple entrance panels are included, they must be set as #2,3,4, or 5. 2. Entrance panels must be programmed independently. Follow steps above to program each entrance panel. 3. Stations on different entrance panels may be programmed as different buttons. Lay out the system in advance and determine which buttons on each entrance station will call each apartment. Programming Logic: 1. Memory is stored in a Button # on a Module # configuration. For example, a handset that is programmed as number 8 is stored as Button #4 on Switch module #2.

2. The GF-SW switch module holds no memory and can be swapped at anytime. 3. The GF-DA holds the memory for all of the stations programmed on the system. If it is replaced, the entire system must be re-programmed. 4. The GF-1D remembers its own ID number only. Each handset must be programmed individually to its appropriate button. Programming Notes/Troubleshooting: 1. Only the handset being programmed can be off hook. If more than one handset is off-hook while attempting to program, the last handset in series will be programmed for the station button pressed. The single or double beep is still heard at the entrance panel. (In other words there is no indication for the programmer that more than one handset is off-hook. The problem will be discovered when the programming for the station intended to be programmed isnt correct.) 2. If two handsets are already programmed on a single button and an attempt is made at adding a third, five beeps will be heard at the entrance panel. The original two handsets will remain programmed, but the third will be inoperative. Reprogram on its own station button. 3. If an inappropriate beep is heard, press and hold call button until a continuos beep is heard. This will clear all programming on that button. Reprogram phone(s) as required. 4. Each GF-1D in the system must be programmed to its designated call button. A single GF-1D cannot be used to program an entire entrance panel. 5. General memory is stored in the GF-DA. If it is ever replaced, all handsets in the system must be re-programmed. 6. The button modules store no memory and can be swapped at anytime. 7. System memory is non-volatile and does not require reprogramming in the event of a power failure. 8. GF-DA comes from the factory set as entrance station #1. The installer must change the dip switch settings for entrances 2~5. 9. Entrance panels must be programmed independently. 10. Handset stations on different entrance panels may be programmed on different call buttons. (They dont have to be in the same position on each panel. For example, if Entrance #1 calls all of the apartments, and Entrance #2 calls half of them, the handsets can be programmed on the appropriate buttons, even if its not the same as Entrance #1.)
