Programming the BAT-Fire
1. Configuring the BAT-Fire
a. On site - Press the CONFIG button on the BAT-Fire. This enables editing of the
configuration fields within AlulaConnect. Note: Evaluation PCBs may be labeled “WPS”
instead of “CONFIG”
i. Configuration mode will timeout after 1 hour if the cover tamper is open and 90 seconds
if the cover tamper is closed
b. On the I/O Ports tab in AlulaConnect
i. Configure each I/O Port
I. Select input or output mode of the port
II. For outputs, name the output and select the conditions for which the output will be
triggered
III. For inputs, select the CID signal that will be relayed when the input is triggered,
specify the Zone Number, and name the input
ii. If using dialer capture, configure the BAT-Fire conditions that will cause phone line 2
voltage to be dropped, alerting the FACP
2. Communication Tab in AlulaConnect
a. Make your Mode Selections
i. Standards Selection - select between UL, ULC, and Manual Mode
I. UL - selects the supervision timings required by UL 864 10th edition Fire and UL 1610
Commercial Burg
II. ULC - selects the supervision timings required by ULC S559 Fire and ULC S304
Commercial Burg
III. Manual - allows the installer to configure specific supervision timing parameters.
Select this to configure for other versions of UL/ULC or AHJ requirements.
ii. Communication Paths - Select Sole Path Ethernet, Sole Path Cellular, of Dual Path
iii. Installation Type - Select Fire and/or Commercial Burg

reported within the Contact ID signal. Select “Point Capture without Dialer Capture” and
enter the Central Station Account Number
b. In this mode the BAT-Fire is responsible for comm testing to the Central Station. Enter the
Auto Comm Test Interval time
