VIKING K-1900-7 Series Vandal Resistant Hotline Panel Phones Installation Guide

The K-1900-7 Series panel phones will auto-dial a 1-32 digit programmable phone number each time the handset is lifted. The unit will touch tone or pulse dial and will not auto-dial on incoming calls.

The K-1900-7 Series housing consists of a heavy gauge stainless steel panel, an armored cable, a heavy duty handset, and an all metal cradle. The K-1900-7 Series phone can be easily touch tone programmed at the shop or installation site. All programming is stored in non-volatile memory.

The K-1900-712L and K-1900-712L-EWP feature a 12” long armored cable with an internal stainless steel lanyard for additional cable strength

Installation and Mounting

IMPORTANT: Electronic devices are susceptible to lightning and power station electrical surges. It is recommended that a surge protector be installed to protect against such surges.

To install the K-1900-7 panel phone, attach the panel to an existing double gang box (with minimum dimensions shown below) using the provided screws or use the optional VE-5×10 weather resistant surface mount box.

Note: Four extra screws and nuts are provided to fill the unused mounting holes. The optional VE-5×10 surface mount box (shown below right) is designed to be surface mounted to a wall, post, single gang box or a VE-GNP or VE-GNP-2 goose neck pedestal (shown below left). The K-1900-7 can also be mounted in an optional VE-9×20 Weatherproof Enclosure (DOD# 413).

Note: When mounting a K-1900-7-EWP in a VE-9×20, the length of the handset cable must be reduced. Use a 3/32” hex key or bit to loosen the set screw in the brass handset cable retainer. Pull approximately 18 inches of the cable through the panel and retighten the set screw.

Optional Surface Mount Box, model VE-5×10 shown (not included) other models also available

Viking’s optional Surface Mount Boxes (VE-5×10 shown right) are designed to be surface mounted to a single gang box, double gang box, or any Viking Gooseneck Pedestal (VE-GNP shown left). For more information on Viking Surface Mount Boxes or Gooseneck Pedestals, see DOD 424.

• Step 1. Access programming as shown in section B.
• Step 2. Enter your new security code followed by #47.
• Step 3. To exit programming simply hang up the K-1900-7

Note: The security code must be six digits in length and MUST NOT contain a Q or #. If you have forgotten your security code, see section “B, 2. Accessing the Programming Mode Locally Without a Security Code.

F. Hand Held Pocket Dialers 

The K-1900-7 is programmed to hang-up if it detects Touch Tones it did not generate. This helps prevent toll fraud from
hand held dialers. To set the K-1900-7 to block/allow dialing from external devices, access the Programming mode as
shown in section B, then choose block or allow. To Block hand held dialers, enter 3. To Allow Touch Tones from external devices, enter 4.

G. Pre-Dial Pause 

In the single number auto-dialer mode, the time from when the handset is taken off-hook until the K-1900-7 auto-dials can be programmed. Access the Programming mode (section B), then choose a pause length. To set the pause length to Normal (approximately 1.4 seconds), enter 5. To set the pause length to Short (approximately 800ms) enter 6.

H. Pauses in the Dialing String

To set pauses in the dialing string, access the Programming mode as shown in section B, then enter 7 to put a 4 second pause anywhere in the dialing string, or #7 for a 1 second pause.

I. Programming Examples 

These examples would be entered after accessing the Programming mode as shown in section B.

Operation

A. Single Number Auto Dialer 

When the K-1900-7 is taken off-hook, it will speed dial the phone number programmed in memory location #00. The K-1900-7 can be programmed to block hand held dialers (see Programming section F).

B. Handset Receiver Volume Adjustment 

The K-1900-7 has a sealed push button switch located on the inside handle of the handset. Each push of the button will rotate through the receiver volume levels if enabled. After four actuations, the receiver volume is back to its default setting. Hanging up the phone will automatically set the receiver volume to its default setting.
