Camera recall button
Pick up the handset then press the button (Press once for door/gate 1, twice for 2 and so on up to a maximum of 4 entranc-

With the handset lifted and speech lines open to the entrance panel, press this button to open the door. If the terminal “LD”
is properly connected the relevant LED remains switched ON until the door is closed.
Intercommunication only works when the system is in stand-by condition.
Switch 4 of the SW1 dip-switch selects the type of intercommunication:
OFF Intercommunication between two apartments - pick up the handset and press the key button to call the videophone(s)
in the other apartment. A busy tone will signal that the other videophone is in conversation with the door station and
so cannot be called.

Any intercommunicating conversation is always interrupted by an external call (i.e. External calls take priority).
Privacy ON-OFF button
When the system is in stand-by, the pressing of this button activates (LED switched on) or disables (LED switched o) the
“privacy” service. The service is automatically disabled when the programmed privacy time expires. When the service is
enabled the videophone does not receive calls.

    Why is there noise over the speech line during Videx 6256 conversation?
    • M
      Michael HunterSep 4, 2025
      If you are experiencing noise over the speech line during a conversation on your Videx Intercom System, it could be due to the 6 common wires being cabled together with 230 or 380Vac power lines, or with 24Vac videophone power supply wires. To resolve this, separate the 6 common wires from the high voltage cables. Also, separate the 6 common wires from the two 24Vac wires, or cable them together only for a short distance.

    How to fix bad video quality on Videx Intercom System?
    • R
      Ryan HoldenSep 2, 2025
      If the video shown on the monitor of your Videx Intercom System is of bad quality and the image is distorted or double, it could be due to several reasons: * V1, V2 signals unconnected, reversed, or shorted. * The switches of the two-way dip-switch are not both in the ON position. * V1, V2 of the last Art. 316N (if present) not closed with a 75 Ohm resistor. To solve this: * Check that the wires are not broken or shorted. * Set both switches to the ON position. * Use 2x 75 Ohm resistors to connect V1 & V2 to 0V.

    • P
      Patrick RodriguezSep 1, 2025
      If you are unable to open the door during a conversation, but the key LED on the door station switches on for the programmed time on your Videx Intercom System, there could be a few reasons: * Incorrect position of J2 jumper. * Electric lock wires unconnected or in short. * Wrong electric lock type. To solve this: * Check J2 position on the door station. * Check the wire connection. * Ensure that the electric lock type (AC or DC) is suitable for the J2 position chosen.

      Valerie MooreAug 31, 2025
      If you can't open the door during a conversation on your Videx Intercom System, the cable size might be too small. Increasing the cable size or doubling up using two wires for each signal may resolve this issue.

    What to do if Videx 6256 door station doesn't call the extension?
    • S
      Sarah BeckAug 30, 2025
      If the door station on your Videx Intercom System isn't calling the extension and the bell LED is on for 2 seconds, the issue might stem from several causes: a wrong connection between the door station and the videophone, a cable size that's too small, an incorrect programmed videophone address, or changing the videophone address without powering down the system. To address this: * Check the 6 common wire connections, especially wire “1” (speech line/data). * Increase the cable size or double up using two wires for each connection. * Verify the videophone address on the dip-switches. * Power down the system and then power it up again to detect the new videophone address.
