SECTION 2 – PROGRAMMING
The DoorKing 1812 Telephone Intercom System can be programmed by three different programming
methods.
• KEYPAD: The keypad on the front of the entry system can be used to program all features in
the 1812 unit. The MASTER CODE can only be programmed from the keypad.
• COMPUTER: Using the DoorKing Auto-Programming Software for Windows, almost all of
the programmable features provided in the 1812 unit can be set using a PC.
• TELEPHONE: Using a touch-tone telephone, many of the programmable features can be
programmed from the house or remotely from an off-site location.
IMPORTANT! We strongly suggest that you read these programming instructions in their
entirety before beginning any programming of this telephone entry system.
2.1 PROGRAMMING INFORMATION
2.1.1 Programming from the Keypad
Follow the programming instructions as described in each section of this manual. The system will
prompt you with short tones (beep) when programming steps have been followed correctly, and with
a long tone (beeeeeep) when the programming step is ended.
This symbol _ in the programming steps indicates numbers that you will need to enter, one number
per symbol.
2.1.2 Programming with a PC
Prior to programming the system with a personal computer and the DoorKing Auto-Programming
Software for Windows, there is certain information that you must know and must program into the
1812 before the computer can communicate with it. See page 22 to set-up the 1812 for PC
programming. Programming the unit with a PC may be accomplished either on-site (from the
residence home) or remotely from an off-site location.
2.1.3 Programming with a Touch-Tone Telephone
Follow these steps when programming the 1812 from the resident’s touch-tone telephone. NOTE:

2. Follow the programming instructions as described in each section of this manual. The
system will prompt you with short (beep) tones when programming steps have been
followed correctly.
