Device configuration
Parameters common to all break-in detectors
Relevant area:
the break-in detectors can be inserted in one or
more areas (set of devices).
Type of alarm:
the various alarms generated by the device can be
classified into “sound alarms” (siren sound, calls and alerts towards
the outside) or “voice alarms” (pre-recorded voice messages diffused
by sirens and by the control unit, besides calls and alerts towards
the outside). There are two possible voice alarms with different mes-
sages.
Alarm delay (seconds):
the device activates the alarm with the pre-
set delay. Cannot be set on MNWD and MNTX0 sensors.
Restriction time after an alarm:
adjustable to between 0 and 180
seconds, in case of continuous triggering of the detectors (for ex-
ample, highly trafficked transit zones, doors/windows continuously
opened and closed). Allows for detecting alarms after the first one
only after the a pre-set time, thus reducing redundant signals and
battery consumption for sensors subject to frequent triggering.
Alarm LED:
normally enabled for all detectors, but can be disabled.
Interactive configurations (AND):
this function pairs two sensors
or an area, signals the break-in alarm if both sensors or at least two
sensors in the area detect a break-in within a pre-set time between
10 and 180 seconds. It allows for reducing the frequency of improper
alarms, especially outdoors.
The AND configuration can be enabled in the following ways:
AND for two detectors:
the alarm is transmitted only if both detec-
tors detect a break-in.
Area AND:
the function is assigned to all detectors paired with the
selected area, and the alarm is triggered if at least two sensors in the
same area detect a break-in.
Warning!
We do not recommend programming two non-volumetric
detectors in AND mode.
Wi-Fi/PhotoPir video camera pairing:
the device can be paired
with the Wi-Fi or PhotPir video cameras already paired with the con-
trol unit. The alarm signal by the device will consist in the capturing of
frames by the paired video cameras or PhotoPir device.
Chime function:
this function only activates when the control unit is
disabled. Pairing it with a detector allows for signalling people present
in the environment or the opening of doors/windows with a sound
signal emitted by the control unit or voice message 2 of the sirens.
Specific parameters of MNMC and MNGB magnetic contact detectors
Door open signal:
normally enabled (EN 50131), but can be disa-
bled. If active, it signals any open doors/windows when the alarm is
enabled.
Anti-tampering with magnet:
normally disabled, but can be ena-
bled. If enabled, it signals with an alarm an attempt to tamper with
the device by bringing a magnet near to it.
Vibration/shock sensor:
normally active, it can be excluded or its
sensitivity adjusted.
Warning!
Do not enable this function on doors/windows frequently
subject to trembling or vibrations.
Wired inputs 1 and 2:
if connected, they appear in the list of devices
with the letters “a” and “b”, in addition to the number distinguishing
the magnetic contact. Each one can be configured as a NC-NO-Bal-
anced-Double Balanced input, with or without impulse counting. For
information on wired connections, consult the device instructions.
Specific parameters of volumetric detectors
Sensitivity adjustment (PIR):
the sensitivity can be adjusted from
minimum level 1 to maximum level 5 (corresponding to the device’s
maximum range); it must be modified in relation to the dimensions of
the environment to be protected.
Integration adjustment:
adjusts the detection validation time from
1 (50 ms) to 8 (400 ms). It must be increased in relation to the pres-
ence of disturbances in the room (air currents, heaters, occasional
presence of large insects, mobile curtains and similar).
Impulse counter adjustment:
adjust to between 1 (alarm after the
first valid signal) to 3 (alarm after the third signal) depending of the
possibility of improper alarms.
Temperature compensation:
enable this function only in installa-
tions characterised by very high average temperatures.
Double detection alarm:
enable this function to reduce improper
alarms in heavily disturbed environments or when the installation is
mounted outside the rooms.
Anti-masking (models AA only):
with this function selected, if the
sensor is blinded the TAMPERING (24 h) alarm activates.
AND Directional Pir1 -> Pir2 function (MNCPIR2AA only):
allows for programming the device so that it detects the entrance but
not the exit through the protected access.
Specific parameters of technical detectors
The technical alarm sensors – MNWD flooding detector, MNSD
smoke detector and MNTX0 transmitter for probes or radio con-
trols – are assigned by default by the control unit to the TECHNICAL
ALARMS area, active 24 h even when the control unit is disabled.
This function cannot be modified.
