Receiving a door call
The interphone can receive calls from a door call button, if
the latter is directly connected to terminals 4 and 6P or via
interface art. 6120 (see wiring versions).
When the door call button is pressed, the interphone emits a
different tone to the one used for outdoor entrance panel calls
or intercommunicating calls; chime cycle duration depends on
the amount of time for which the button was pressed (max.
10 s).
Making an intercommunicating call
To make a call to another indoor unit, one or more buttons
must have been programmed (see “Button programming”
section). To make the call, press the button programmed for
the relevant indoor unit. During the call, the interphone emits a
tone in order to signal that the call is being made.
When the internal unit receiving the call answers, communi-
cation begins automatically (the red LED lights up steadily).
Press button
B to end the conversation.
If you want to end the call before it is answered, press
B
.
The maximum conversation duration is 5 minutes.
If the interphone is already engaged with another call, a tone
will be heard on the interphone making the call to indicate that
the user receiving the call is busy.

to the entrance panel (by default, the last entrance panel to
make a call).

Hearing aid function (art. 6901/D only)
Art. 6901/D has an internal coil which allows hearing aid wea-
rers to use the device. In this operating mode, the hearing aid
must be switched to the “T” position.
For correct chime reception, the user should stand in front of
the interphone, so that the hearing aid is within the magnetic
field created by the interphone, as shown in the figure.
Note
: any metal objects or electronic equipment nearby may
compromise the quality of the sound received by the hearing aid.
