Settings
Azor’s properties can be set using a computer with MS Windows XP or higher.
Computer connection
You can use a USB cable to connect a turned on Azor unit to the computer. If the
computer fails to open the setting program automatically within a certain time after the
connection has been established, search for a USB disk named AZOR-USB and launch the
A-Link file (click the icon
) located on the disk. The A-Link setting program is equipped
with comprehensive help for each feature.
The program options are divided into individual tabs where you can fill in individual
settings parameters, user names and telephone numbers, enrolling detectors using a code,
set GSM control unit properties, etc.
Press the Save button to save the changes, displayed blue in the tab, into the Azor alarm.
When you press the Cancel button, the changes in the tab are not saved and previous
values are used.
Tips and specifications

The first time Azor is connected, the computer needs extra time (up to several minutes) to set
up USB communication. Once the connection has been established, you will find a USB disc
named AZOR-USB in the computer. Further connections will be significantly faster.

If Azor is connected to an ARC, access to the setup page can be blocked. In such a case ask
the ARC operators to help you change the settings.

If you protect the settings with a code in the Settings window, Azor will require the code every
time a computer is connected to it.
Firmware update
You can transfer new version of Azor’s firmware (FW) into Azor using a computer. The file
containing the firmware can be downloaded from the manufacturer’s website. Open the file
using the options Control panel and Firmware upgrade in the A-Link menu. Wait until the
end of the installation procedure. All GSM control unit LED indicators should flash red for a
while during FW installation. When restarted after FW installation has finished, (switch it off
and on) Azor should behave according to the new firmware.
Tips and specifications

Before you start installing a new firmware version read its description thoroughly and make sure
your product version is compatible with the new FW. It is recommended to make a backup of
the settings using the Export option.

Both the backup battery and the power adaptor must be connected to the GSM control unit
when the FW is being installed. There is a risk of irreversible damage if there is a power supply
failure while the FW update is in progress.

When you have installed the new FW, check its settings on your computer (the A-Link settings
program can look different with different program versions). You should also test all system
functions properly.
