6) FIXED-CODE CLONING
NOTE: ALTHOUGH A HIGH NUMBER OF COMBINATIONS FOR
TRANSMITTER CODING IS INCLUDED IN THE FIXED CODE
CONFIGURATION, THE SAFETY LEVEL OF THE CODE ANTI-COPYING
SYSTEM IS INFERIOR.
In the cases where you do not wish to manage the list or the cloning key or
the key transmitter, additional clones can be generated by means of
UNIRADIO, starting from any transmitter which is already memorised
within the system.
This operation can only be carried out if the receiver is configured to operate
with a fixed code (no longer a rolling code).
With the plug-in receivers, fixed-code operation is obtained by removing
jumper JP5.
With the receivers incorporated in the control units, you can activate the
“FIXED CODE” option from the “LOGICS” menu, or alternatively use
UNIPRO :
Enter the “CONTROL UNITS” menu, the “LOGICS” submenu and the
“SPECIAL LOGICS” submenu, then scroll the display pages by means of
the up/down arrows to set the numerical value of:
- Address (13)
[0]
0 fixed code
0 rolling code.
When assigning a specific key on an additional clone transmitter to a
specific output channel on a receiver, a predefined procedure is followed
which can be decided at will if the radio transmitter storage is carried out by
means of
UNIRADIO , otherwise it is identical to the diagram of the first
memorised transmitter, the one with the KEY TRANSMITTER LABEL.
For fixed code clone creation, refer to the UNIRADIO instructions or
observe the following simplified procedure:
1) Switch
UNIRADIO on and wait for the welcome message.
2) Use the <arrow up> and <arrow down> keys to select item <go the
menu number> .
3) Press <enter> .
4) When in the subsequent menu, type number 213 and press <enter> .
5) Select menu <fixed code cloning> and press <enter> .
6) Follow the instructions appearing on the UNIRADIO display.
7) COLLECTIVE RECEIVERS
Collective installations can be carried out by means of the UNIRADIO
programmer. For instance, just one transmitter can be used to control a
“collective” receiver (ref. “C”, Fig.2), and an “individual” receiver (ref. PX,
Fig. 2).
In this type of installation, the appropriate codes need to be assigned to the
various receivers by means of UNIRADIO.
Each code is made up of 10 figures in hexadecimal format (thus figures from
0 to 9 as well as characters A-B-C-D-E-F are allowed), e.g.:
1A9C-22FD-00
is a valid code.
The first eight characters represent the actual code, the last two figures
represent the type of receiver, either collective or individual. If the last two
figures are equal to 00, it means that the receiver is preset for collective
operation, whereas if the last two figures are different from 00, it means that
the receiver is preset for individual operation. Therefore, if you wish to carry
out an installation similar to the one illustrated in Fig.2, you will need to
assign a collective code to receiver “C” (e.g.
1A9C-22FD-00 ) and then
assign the same code to the individual receivers, except for the two last
figures which must be in progressively increasing sequence (
1A9C-22FD-
01,1A9C-22FD-02, 1A9C-22FD-03 etc.).
All the transmitters programmed with a particular code will therefore be
automatically enabled to activate both the collective receiver (being provided
with the same initial code number) and their own individual receiver (being
provided with the full code number).
If necessary, a transmitter can be set exclusively to activate the collective
receiver by being assigned the entire collective receiver code (in our
example 1A9C-22FD-00).
WARNING!: The installation code will have to be chosen with care,
avoiding codes which are too simple and codes which have already
been assigned during previous installations.
In “Communal buildings” installations, no additional cloning
operations can be carried out by means of the “Master” transmitter,
since the code is directly assigned by the installer.
The codes ending with letters FB, FC, FD, FE and FF are not valid.
At this point it will be possible to program all the radio transmitters required,
using the UNIRADIO programmer, managed by the EEdbase software if
necessary.
NOTE: The EEdbase software provides a more efficient installation
database management and a simpler storage procedure in the case of
complex installations.
Programming of receivers is carried out through UNIRADIO according to
the following procedure:
a) Configuration of complete parameters for each receiver by means of
UNIRADIO
b) Transfer of programming data to the receiver.
a) Parameter configuration
1) Switch UNIRADIO on and wait for the welcome message.
2) Use the <arrow up> and <arrow down> keys to select item <go the
menu number> .
3) Press <enter> .
4) When in the subsequent menu, type number 243 and press <enter> .
5) Configure the receiver following the instructions on the screen:
define list:
indicate the type of receiver: Clonix 64, 128, 512 or 2048 (2048 only with
UNIRADIO-E).
Usually, Clonix 64 receivers are incorporated in the control
units. Consult the specific instruction manual.
output configuration: choose the type of function required (monostable
= impulsive, bistable = step by step, timed). This function is only active in
the plug-in receivers.
description: indicate the name of the list, maximum 15 characters
rreceiver code: enter the assigned key code paying attention to the
distinction between “collective” receiver and “individual” receiver.
clone default: assign the required output to the required transmitter
key, taking care to avoid assigning a key to an individual receiver, which
has already been assigned to a collective receiver, or vice versa.
Example: T1 output 1 (Start) = collective receiver and
T2 output 1 (Start) = individual receiver
b) Transfer of programming data
6) Exit the list parameter menu by pressing <ESCAPE> and return to the
initial menu.
7) Use the <arrow up> and <arrow down> keys to select item <go the
menu number> .
8) Press <enter> .
9) When in the subsequent menu, type number 223 and press <enter> .
10) Connect the receiver to be programmed as indicated in Fig.1.
11) Wait for the data to be transferred.
Repeat this procedure for each receiver to be memorised, each time
increasing the last two figures of the key code.
Refer to the
UNIRADIO instructions for further details.
Then use the individual receiver codes to set up all the required radio
transmitters, following the instructions given in paragraph 5
“Rolling-code
cloning with code”.
You can carry out creation and cloning of other radio transmitters at any
time by using the code number assigned, which is chosen at the installer’s
or user’s discretion.
You are therefore advised to write it down on the appropriate card
supplied and to give it to user of the “individual” receiver (Fig.3).
Make a note of the type of receiver configuration (“rolling code” or
“fixed code”) on the card, in order to avoid errors during future
transmitter cloning operations.
To create replacement clones, you need to have the complete receiver
memory data; therefore, if you plan to carry out replacement cloning
operations by remote control, you need to memorise the contents of the
receiver memory by reading it using
UNIRADIO and entering it in the
EEdbase database.
NOTE: For installations in the “collective receivers” mode, it is advisable
to create a complete installation database, by means of EEdbase , containing
the data for each receiver and transmitter, and to number progressively
each memorised transmitter, in order to be able to carry out additional or
replacement cloning operations, even years later, without needing to make
changes directly to the receivers. Refer to the
UNIRADIO instructions and
to the on-line EEdbase software guide.
WARNING!: The cloning procedures specified in paragraph 5 give a
simplified explanation of how to carry out cloning, without having the clones
created contained in a database.
Refer to the
UNIRADIO instructions for further information concerning the
creation and management of a database.
