Clearing the memory will not affect any OTIU settings or programmed phone
numbers, it will only clear any network connections. To clear the memory, use the
telephone that is directly connected to the OTIU and dial:
After the “BEEP”, hang up the telephone
. You will now need to reactivate the OTIU
into any network you may have.

# 8
All numbers and symbols must be dialed within 3 seconds of each other, otherwise
the unit times out and goes back to a dial tone.
Check the phone connections and if it is a two-
line phone, be sure that it is on LINE
1. If you receive a dual-
tone error sound when attempting to open a gate, make sure
that the OTIU is indeed programmed to the correct GAP, MiniGAP, or FrontDoor Unit
and
that the Gate Controller in question has been taught to the master unit as well. If
an OTIU has already been taught, trying to re-teach it will sound a dual-
tone error as
well. See “How do I clear the memory”.
Trees, metal or anything electrical between units can limit the range, as can having
any units mounted on a tree, masonry, or metal surface. If you have radio devices,
such as video transmitters that run on 900 MHz, try turning them off and see if the
rec
eption is improved. Do not place the OTIU near a computer or any other “Radio
Noise Source”. Keep the antenna vertical and at least 6” away from any objects.
To enable the Call Forwarding function, use the telephone that is directly
connected to the OTIU and dial:

TO CHANGE THE NUMBER OF TIMES THE OTIU RINGS THE PHONE
TO PLACE THE OTIU IN INTERCOM MODE
TO ENABLE/DISABLE INTERCOM MODE
GENERAL INFORMATION
PARTS SUPPLIED
By default, the OTIU will ring the telephone 4 times. You might want to
change the number of times the telephone rings for any given reason.
For example, if you have an answering machine and it is programmed to
pick up after 4 rings, you might want to
change the OTIU to ring the
telephone only 3 times. This will prevent your answering machine from
picking up if your phone is not answered when someone presses the
“CALL” button on your GAP, MiniGAP, or FrontDoor Unit.
NOTE: If your answering machine doe
s pick up, the visitor will hear
your answering machine message through the speaker.
Using the telephone that is directly connected to the OTIU, dial:
After the “BEEP”, hang up the telephone.

1 - Antenna
1 – 18V Power Adapter
1 – Phone Cord
1 – Set of 4 Bumper Feet
Place the 4 Bumper Feet onto the bottom of the OTIU. This will
keep the unit from sliding around.
Plug the antenna into the back of the OTIU where it is labeled
"antenna". Make sure to position the antenna wire pointing
straight up from the unit to achi
eve maximum range.
The Oracle Telephone Interface Unit (OTIU) allows you to talk to
visitors at your gate or door, when used with the Oracle PRO Gate
System (GAP), MiniGAP, and/or Oracle FrontDoor Unit. When
used with the Oracle PRO Gate System or MiniGAP, the OTIU
allows y
ou to activate your gate from your phone, no matter where
you are, using your telephone keypad.
The OTIU easily connects to any phone or phone system and
provides Long-
Range Wireless Connection from the Oracle GAP,
MiniGAP, or FrontDoor to any or all of the phones.
The OTIU works at it's maximum potential when utilized with an
expandable phone system* and is the recommended setup for this
product. With this type of setup, the OTIU will ring all of the phones
in your house when there is a visitor at your
gate or front door.
When you have different types of phones (non-
expandable
systems) throughout your house, the OTIU will only ring the phone
that it is connected to.
*One base station, requiring only one phone jack allowing you to
add additional handsets into the system that use wall power only.
To enable the Call Forwarding function, use the telephone that is directly
connected to the OTIU and dial:

If you would like the OTIU to act independently from your home phone
line, you can simply have it as part of your network in intercom mode, so
that you can receive calls from the gate. To enable/disable this feature,
you will need to have the phone cord plugged into the wall jack.
