Odd Request

Pics are fine. On the black part the screws have numbers, does the phone part have corresponding ones? That connector with wires to the screws on the white part may be for a 2nd camera or inside unit, hence the loose wires?

I think the other 4 wires that aren't used are to control a gate/door lock, or to be used to connect to the "control room" as the other button on the monitor says....I do not know, that's why I wish somebody could find documentation on the damn thing so I could figure out what to do to make it work fully.

Well if your getting sound & video you are hooked up right with the phone line.
Is the "call" feature wireless? Like old garage door openers or wireless doorbells, if so maybe in/on the black piece should be dip switches or a diagram to show what position to put the other dips in?

I have taken the black piece completely apart, there are no DIP switches or radio transmitters inside the device, nor any diagrams or pictures that aren't in Malaysian. Maybe it's just broken, but I still doubt that. It was still in the box brand new in the plastic wrap still. It shouldn't be broken. My guess is that the setting is for the DIP switch on the back of the white piece, or the other 4 wires that aren't attached to anything, or the 2 terminals that say "S" and "L" on them. I'm pretty sure though, that its not wireless at all, it is too old to have that technology inside it. Maybe the call button is simply broken, but surely that DIP switch on the back of the white part does something?

Any hope for me guys, or is it a lost cause? I have still been searching, and haven't come up with anything. I thought EVERYTHING was on the Internet somewhere. I win because I found the one thing that wasn't! LOL anyways, just curious if I should continue messing with this video phone or just toss it in a box somewhere and forget it. Or revert to my other plan and go buy a cheap doorbell and install that, so the caller can ring that and then I could start the intercom.

I guess my whole goal was to figure out why it wasn't working to see if I could fix it, but all avenues of effort have been exhausted completely. I am at a loss at what to look for or try next. Thanks for all your time and effort :)
