COM2 To Incoming CO & Phones
Using an RJ-14 connector, connect TIP and RING from the incoming telephone service to the
TELCO LINE1/2 connector as shown. Make identical connections from the PHONES LINE1/2
connector to the telephone distribution point. Make sure to use the four inner pins of the RJ14
connector exactly as shown in the drawing.
CAUTION: ALWAYS remove power to the COM2 along with any other
electronics equipment prior to making any connections to or from the
COM2. Set the Power Switch on the back of the COM2 to the OFF
position prior to making connections.

COM2 to Door Station Connections
The COM2 is designed to work with ELAN DSC3, DSF3, and DSS3 Door Stations to provide
doorbell push button and door station communications functionality. Use Cat-5 for these
connections. Note that only two wires are used to connect between the COM2 and the door station.
The remaining wires of the Cat-5 are used for the DSC3's camera functions (the camera does not
interact with the COM2).
CAUTION: ALWAYS remove power to the COM2 along with any other
electronics equipment prior to making any connections to or from the
COM2. Set the Power Switch on the back of the COM2 to the OFF
position prior to making connections.
NOTE: If using a VBRM Video Balun, Cat-5 network cable is recommended to be
used. IF a video balun is not used ELAN recommends 18 AWG wire. For
DSC3 runs over 500 feet you must double wire the power inputs.
