G. Door Strike Activation Time 

A single pole double throw relay is available for each entry phone (a second set of contacts are 
available on solder pads only), and each may be programmed with its own “doorstrike” activation time 
(programmed in seconds). Each time must be 2 digits (Example: 00 = 1/2 sec.) and is stored in 
locations 

#19

#29

#39 

and 

#49 

for relays 1 through 4 respectively. All activation times are factory set 

to 00 (1/2 sec.)  

Note: A buzz sound will be heard in the house phone and entry phone, indicating the door strike relay 
has been activated and visitors can now open the door. 
 
H. Caller ID 

The 

DCH4 

is factory set to send “Caller ID” and “Call Waiting Caller ID” information from the entry 

phones. If “Caller ID” is not required, enter “*

2

” while in programming to disable the 

DCH4 

from 

sending “Caller ID” and “Call Waiting Caller ID” data to the house phones. Enter “*

1

” to enable “Caller 

ID” and “Call Waiting Caller ID” data (see 

Operation 

section 

A

). 

 

I. Entry Phone Ring Cadence 

Entry phone calls are factory set to ring the house phones in a custom double ring cadence (.7 
seconds on/.3 seconds off/.7 seconds on then 4 seconds off between rings), “*

3

”. The 

DCH4 

can be 

programmed to give a standard ring cadence for entry phone calls (2 seconds of ring, and 4 seconds 
off between rings), enter “*

4

” when in programming. Entry phone ringing can also be disabled 

by entering “

0#62

”. This is useful when connecting the 

DCH4 

to the 

DPC100 

to provide unique front 

and back door chimes. 

 
J. Outside Line Access 
1. Dial “9” to Access the Outside Line - 

To program the 

DCH4 

for C.O. dial tone, enter “*

5

” while 

programming. To gain access to C.O. dial tone, dial a Touch Tone “

9

”. 

 

2. Instant Outside Line Access (factory default) - 

To program the 

DCH4 

for private dial tone, enter 

“*

6

” while programming. House phones will instantly have the outside line dial tone on an off-hook. 

 

K. Maximum Entry Phone Ring Count 

The number of times an entry phone call will ring the house phones can be limited in programming. 
The programmable maximum ring count must be 2 digits and is stored in location “

#61

”. The 

maximum ring count is programmable from 1 - 99 and factory set to (

05

) 5 rings. 

 

L. Doorbell Switch Input and Auxiliary Contact Output 
1. Doorbell Mode 

(DIP Switch 1 ON - factory setting) 

With the 

DCH4 

in the doorbell mode (DIP switch 

1 ON

), a normally open switch (SPST 6-16V lighted 

or non-lighted doorbell button, etc.) can be connected to terminals 26 and 27 (

DOORBELL SWITCH / 

AUX INPUT

). This switch should be located near entry phone 1. Door chime power (normally 

connected to a doorbell button) can be routed through terminals 28 and 29 (

N.O. AUX CONTACT 

OUTPUT

). A momentary closure on the 

DCH4 

input terminals will momentarily activate the 

AUX 

CONTACT OUTPUT 

terminals for the same duration, activating your door chime. Entry phone 1 will 

be called, automatically answer (see the Technical Practice for your entry phone) and begin ringing 
the house phones (terminals 4 and 5 

LINE OUT TO PHONES

). The house phones can then be 

answered, doorstrike commands entered, etc. (see 

Operation 

sections 

A-E

).  

Notes: Entry phone 1 ringing the house phones can be disabled in this doorbell mode, if it is 
desirable to have the doorbell chime but not the house phones ring. This option can only be used if
