The Vimar Tab Free 7539 is a hands-free video entryphone designed for Due Fili Plus systems, featuring a 3.5" color display and a capacitive keyboard. It supports various functions including answering calls, door release, self-start, auxiliary services, and intercom calls. The device allows for adjustments to volume, brightness, and contrast, and can differentiate between various call ringtones. Visual signals are provided for "door/gate open," "missed calls," "user away," "ringtone mute," and "alert" statuses. It is also compatible with hearing aid wearers (Teleloop function).
Function Description:
The Tab Free 7539 video entryphone is designed to receive calls from Indoor Stations, Outdoor Stations, and the Reception switchboard. It can initiate self-start of the Outdoor Station, make intercom calls with other Indoor Stations, and call the Reception switchboard. Calls can be answered, and the lock of the Outdoor Station can be released using dedicated keys. Additionally, several programmable keys are available for activating other functions, such as relay actuation or specific intercom calls.
Key Functions and Status LEDs (Front View):
The video entryphone is operated via touch keys.
- Self-start (Key A): Activates the main outdoor station (ID 1).
- Ringtone Mute (Key B): Disables/enables the ringtone. When an incoming call is received, pressing this key mutes the current ringtone and disables subsequent ringtones.
- Lock Release (Key C): Activates the lock of the calling Outdoor Station. This function is also available in stand-by mode. If not configured, the indoor station in stand-by opens the lock for the last calling outdoor station.
- Auxiliary 1 (Key D): Activates the first relay of the Due Fili Plus system (Aux 1), typically used for stair lights.
- Talk/Listen (Key F): Used to answer and end conversations.
- Volume Control (Key G): Adjusts volume and contrast.
- Brightness Control (Key H): Adjusts display brightness.
- Programmable Keys (1, 2, 3, 4): By default, these keys are assigned as follows:
- Key 1 (Auxiliary 2): Activates the second relay (Aux 2) of the Due Fili Plus system.
- Key 2 (Free): A free programmable key.
- Key 3 (F1 Control): Sends an F1 control to Outdoor Stations.
- Key 4 (F2 Control): Sends an F2 control to Outdoor Stations.
These functions can be modified via configuration to perform other auxiliary functions or intercom calls.
Status LEDs:
- Ringtone Mute LED:
- Permanently lit: Ringtone is muted.
- Flashing: Receiving a call from an Outdoor Station or Indoor Station (different flash patterns).
- Flashing during configuration.
- If configured via SaveProg: 1 flash every 10 seconds indicates received and missed calls from the switchboard; 1 flash every second indicates "user away" (Indoor Station refuses calls from Outdoor Station).
- Talk/Listen LED:
- Steady light: Communication is underway.
- Flashing: During the timeout for sending a call to the reception switchboard.
- Auxiliary Services/Alert LED:
- Steady light: An opening has been left open (if connected by the installer).
- Flashing: During configuration.
- Possible "Alert" signaling (refer to Alert function section).
All keys are backlit and light up when touched.
Usage Features:
- Answering a Call: When an Outdoor Station calls, the display shows video, and the Talk/Listen key flashes. Press the Talk/Listen key to answer and again to end the conversation.
- Lock Release: Press the Lock Release key to open the lock of the connected Outdoor Station.
- Answering Calls from Indoor Station or Reception Switchboard: When an Indoor Station or Reception switchboard calls, the Talk/Listen key flashes. Press the Talk/Listen key to answer and again to end the conversation. If the Reception switchboard has a camera, its video signal will be visible. Missed call signals persist even after a power outage.
- Self-start: Briefly press the Self-start key to activate the master entrance panel. If the master entrance panel is audio-only, press the Talk/Listen key and then the Self-start key while it flashes (for 5 seconds). Only video is activated initially; press the Talk/Listen key to activate communication and again to end it. A busy tone will be heard if another communication is in progress. Specific Outdoor Stations can be self-started using programmable keys after configuration.
- Calling an Indoor Station (Intercom): Other Indoor Stations can be called using configured programmable keys. During the call, the calling station emits a tone. If the called station is busy, a busy tone is heard. Communication activates automatically when the called party answers. Press the Talk/Listen key to end the conversation. The maximum intercom conversation length is 5 minutes (unless programmed otherwise via SaveProg).
- Calling a Reception Switchboard: To call the reception switchboard, press the Talk/Listen key and, within 5 seconds, press the Self-start key. The Talk/Listen key flashes during the timeout.
- Landing Call: The device can receive calls from a Landing button connected to the FP-M terminals. Pressing the push button sends a landing call. The ringtone duration depends on how long the key is pressed, up to a maximum of 10 seconds.
- Alert Function: This function sends a notice to the Reception Switchboard (art 40510) even if the Due Fili Plus bus is busy. A push button connected to FP-M terminals is required, and the operating mode is set via SaveProg. The video entryphone enters stand-by and receives visual or acoustic answers from the Reception switchboard based on configuration.
Adjustments and User Configurations:
- Ringtone Volume Adjustment: The ringtone volume has 10 levels. Press the '-' key to decrease and '+' key to increase the volume.

Advanced Configurations (via SaveProg software):
SaveProg is PC software for advanced configuration of Due Fili Plus Systems. It allows:
-
Modifying configurations of all keys.
-
Creating groups.
-
Enabling and disabling functions.
-
Alert Function Configuration via SaveProg: The FP-M input can be configured as active for the alert function, replacing the local door landing call. The Indoor Station waits for an alert from the switchboard, sending chosen signaling to the user. If no answer, the message is resent every 10 seconds (stops after 5 failed attempts). Upon confirmation from the switchboard, chosen signaling is sent. If the switchboard operator calls the Indoor Station from the warnings list, a message is sent to end the alert procedure.
- Enabling: Disabled (default) or Enabled.
- Active State Polarity: Contact normally open (default) or Contact normally closed.
- Activation Delay: 0.1 seconds (default), 0.5 seconds, 1 second, or 2 seconds.
