ELAN HOME SYSTEMS COM2 Communications Controller

1) Use 7/16 wrench to loosen the screw and rotate the camera.

2) Make sure the camera wire is located in the upper right corner of the camera module

when the DSC3 is viewed from the rear.

3) Adjust the viewing angle by carefully twisting the camera bracket.

4) Once the camera has been repositioned, tighten the bracket screw to secure the camera

at the desired position.

Cat-5 network cable must be used to connect ELAN Door Stations as shown in Figure 3-8 and

Figure 3-9. Connecting the DSC3 includes a video balun on the head end to provide power to

the camera module for cable lengths over 125 feet and up to 1000 feet. If Cat-5 network cable

is not applicable for your specific installation you can still wire your door stations. ELAN

suggests using RG59 for video and 18/2 for all other connects. In this case, the video balun

should not be used.

NOTE: ELAN recommends using the provided doorbell only. A non ELAN doorbell

has not been tested and is not covered under ELAN’s Door Station Warranty

DSC3 Doorbell Button Installation

The DSC3 Door Station is designed with a separate matching doorbell button from the door

station assembly. This enables the doorbell button to be installed in a conventional doorbell

location, and the door station mounted higher up for optimum camera viewing.

NOTE: ELAN recommends using the provided doorbell button only. A non ELAN

doorbell button has not been tested and is not covered under ELAN’s Door

Station Warranty.

NOTE: if the doorbell push button does not light after connecting the db+ and db-

leads from the Door Station, reverse the leads, polarity must be maintained

in order for the doorbell light to function properly.

NOTE: Be sure to pull the doorbell push button wires through the back of the

DBK1000 Door Station Rough-in Box.
