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. How do I clear the memory of the OTIU Clearing the memory will not clear any OTIU settings or programmed phone numbers.

TO CHANGE THE NUMBER OF TIMES THE OTIU RINGS THE PHONE 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 does pick up, the visitor will hear your answering machine message through the speaker. Using the telephone that is directly connected to the OTIU, dial:

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, MiniGAP, and/or Oracle FrontDoor Unit. When used with the Oracle PRO Gate System or MiniGAP, the OTIU allows you 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 PLACE THE OTIU IN INTERCOM MODE 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. To enable/disable this feature, you will need to have the phone cord plugged into the wall jack.
