Dual Zone Digital Location Control Unit Installation and Operation Manual 

Configuration and operation 

Configuration overview 

Configuring the control unit is straightforward and can be done without a laptop 
or dedicated programming software. The control unit has a structured menu to 
guide you through the set-up sequence. 

Configure the control unit using the internal SELECT and SET buttons:  

•  Press SELECT to select the available options  

•  Press SET to confirm the selection 

Before starting the set-up process, all sensor cables and leader cables must be 
connected to the control unit. 

Set-up process 

On power up the control unit shows the start-up screen with the product 
description and firmware version. The firmware version is displayed as 4-digit 
number (for example, R1234). 

 

ALARMLINE II 

ADLCU RXXXX 

  

  

 

After a few seconds the main menu screen appears. There are three menu 
options (see “Menu options” on page 18). Press SELECT to scroll through the 
options and SET to confirm a selection. 

 

MAIN MENU 

LOAD CONFIGS 

  

  

 

If the control unit was previously configured and no menu option is selected 
within 10 seconds, then the current configuration settings are loaded. The LCD 
will scroll through the current settings and will continue to the status screen. 

 

ZONE 1: OK 

ZONE 2: OK 

  

  

 

If the control unit is being configured for the first time and no menu option is 
selected within 10 seconds, then the first configuration option is shown.
