Gira surface-mounted video home station 7

The Gira surface-mounted video home station 7 is a new indoor station for door intercoms. It is available in two colours: pure white glossy with white glass, and black matt with black glass. Both variants can be integrated harmoniously into any interior design, residential environment or office situation.

The surface-mounted video home station 7 combines maximum ease of use with outstanding display quality, practical speakerphone function, and straightforward installation. It will provide you with a convenient, high-quality image of who’s at the door, so you can be sure who you’re letting in. Energy-saving technology means that no additional power supply is needed, and the system is also ideally suited to use in large building complexes.

The Gira surface-mounted video home station 7 can be used in single-family homes and apartment buildings alike. It can be installed using 2-wire bus technology for up to 28 devices, without the need for an additional power supply or substantial cabling work, and is particularly well-suited to retrofitting. Whether in a reception area, a business premises, or a doctor’s surgery: thanks to its flexible wall or base foot mounting options, a perfect location can always be found.

The 7-inch (17.78 cm) high-resolution TFT colour screen boasts impressive image quality and a range of individual settings, such as brightness and contrast options. The advanced IPS display technology allows the angle of vision to be widened and guarantees that the camera images in front of the door are clearly presented, even when the full-screen glass front with its large visual field is viewed at an angle. The power-saving system automatically switches on the display when there is a ring at the door. It can also be activated manually. The home station can be operated by touching any area of the display, or by using five capacitive speed buttons at the bottom edge of the screen, which are also visible when the display is inactive.

Whether mounted on the wall or positioned on its base foot, the surface-mounted video home station 7 is available in two colours: pure white glossy with white glass and black matt with black glass.

Thanks to the pared down design, either variant can be harmoniously integrated into any private living interior and it is equally at home on reception counters and desks in offices, doctors’ surgeries, and legal practices.

The basic functions of the home station can be controlled simply by lightly touching the icon buttons: you can accept door calls, switch on the outside light by the door or the staircase lighting (in conjunction with a switching actuator), and open the door. The door bell can also be muted, if desired. The press of a button is confirmed by an acknowledgement tone, which can be deactivated. Confirmation via tactile feedback (vibration) is also an option. The type of button tone (tone, click, multi-frequency tone) and its volume can also be set. Multi-frequency tones and button vibration are especially practical options for people with hearing impairments.

The Gira surface-mounted video home station 7 can be used in single-family homes and apartment buildings alike. It can be installed using 2-wire bus technology for up to 28 devices, without the need for an additional power supply or substantial cabling work.

The Gira Project Assistant (GPA) will help you to define all of the settings during start-up – device parameters, image memory, door calls, and much more. Especially practical for rental properties. These settings can be saved onto a microSD card as a back-up. You have the option of setting a PIN that must be entered before changes can be made to settings. Practical for apartment buildings or holiday apartments. You can leave your contact details on the device as a digital business card, so that the user can get hold of you easily if they need rapid assistance. Firmware updates can also be easily installed via a microSD card. It goes without saying that the usual push-button start-up is also possible.

All functions and device parameters can be easily and clearly adjusted via the settings menu, or installed with the aid of the GPA.

As the home station works using the traditional 2-wire bus used by the doorbell system, there is very little installation work involved. A mounting plate merely has to be attached to the wall to install the device. Thanks to its slim dimensions (W/ H/ D: 181×123×24 mm), low profile height of only 26 mm, and straightforward design, there is a suitable space for the home station in any entrance area.

If there is a power outage, your device settings will be retained. If a device has to be replaced, all the data can simply be stored on an SD card. To do this, you need a microSD card in FAT32 format with at least 500 MB of memory. Alongside its back-up function, the SD card can be used to import ring tones and to export images. More information on this can be found in the mounting instruction.
