719S 2 Door Switching Unit
1
General Description
The Model 719S Switching Unit provides a means of operating a door entry telephone
system from two entrances. Several 719S units may be combined to extend operation
up to a maximum of eight entrances.
OPERATION
When a telephone is called from a given entrance, the switching unit connects the
telephone to the speech amplifier ( model 51) of that entrance panel only. The unit
remains active for a preset period ( 30 - 120 secs), during which time the resident may
converse with the caller by lifting the telephone handset and, if required, allow the caller
to gain access, by pressing the telephone 'lock button'; the lock release (of the active
entrance only) will operate for a preset period ( 3 - 20 secs).
When a given entrance panel is in use, all other entrances are ' locked out' for the
active period (30 - 120 secs), during which time it is not possible to call any of the
telephones from these entrances. This engaged condition may be indicated to other
callers by an optional 'engaged lamp' installed at each door.

The 719S switching unit is compatible with the telephones listed below:-

POWER SUPPLY
The 719S is powered from a 12V AC 2A PSU (M225) for AC telephones or 12V DC 2A
PSU (M440) for DC telephones. A separate power supply is required for each 719S unit
in multi-door systems (see Diagrams 3 or 4).
It is also possible to operate a fail-safe lock release on an AC system with the addition
of a 12V DC 1A PSU (M340), see diagram 1.
