Frequently Asked Questions - E-50-BK VIKING
Can the Viking E-50-BK be used as a standalone unit or does it require a master station?
The E-50-BK is designed as a substation and typically requires a compatible Viking master station (e.g., E-30 or E-60 series) for full functionality. However, it can be used in a two-station system with another E-50-BK using a simple 2-wire connection.
What type of wiring is needed for the E-50-BK?
The unit accepts 2-conductor or 4-conductor wire (22-18 AWG) via screw terminals. For basic audio and call, 2 wires are sufficient; for door release or privacy functions, 4 wires are recommended.
Can I adjust the volume on the E-50-BK?
Yes, there is an internal volume potentiometer that can be adjusted with a small screwdriver. Open the unit's cover to access it. Turn clockwise to increase volume, counterclockwise to decrease.
How do I reset the E-50-BK to factory defaults?
There is no software reset; however, you can disconnect power for 30 seconds and then reconnect. This will clear any temporary settings but not stored configurations. For a full factory reset, contact Viking support.
Does the E-50-BK support door release?
Yes, it has a relay output that can be used to trigger an electric door strike or magnetic lock. The relay is rated for 1A at 24V DC/AC (max). Connection is made through terminals labeled 'DOOR'.
Can I connect more than one E-50-BK to the same master station?
Yes, you can connect up to 4 substations (including other E-50-BK units) to a single Viking master station using the terminal block. Each unit can be individually called via a unique extension number set by DIP switches.
What is the range of the E-50-BK?
The range depends on the wire gauge and quality. For typical 22 AWG twisted pair, maximum distance is approximately 300 meters (1000 feet). For longer runs, use a larger gauge or a Viking line amplifier (model AMP-1).
Can I mount the E-50-BK outdoors?
The E-50-BK is rated indoor use only (IP20). For outdoor use, install it in a weatherproof enclosure or consider Viking's weather-resistant models (e.g., E-50-BK-WP). Exposure to moisture may damage the unit.
The LED on the call button is not lighting up. What could be the problem?
First, check that the unit is receiving 12V DC power (the green power LED on the PCB should be on). If power is present, the LED may be burned out or the button may be faulty. Power cycle the unit once; if issue persists, contact Viking support.
Is the Viking E-50-BK compatible with third-party intercom systems?
The E-50-BK uses a proprietary 2-wire audio protocol and is not directly compatible with other brands. However, you can integrate it with some systems via a Viking interface module (e.g., ICM-1). Check compatibility with Viking technical support.
