8. Close the controller enclosure.
9. Turn on the power of the alarm system.
10. Start the identification function in the control panel.
The ACU-250 controller will be identified as ACU-100 and this name will be assigned
to it by default by the control panel.
5. Programming the controller
Programming of the controller is carried out by means of the control panel, using:
the LCD keypad in service mode:
– INTEGRA / INTEGRA Plus – the controller programming functions are available in the
S

). Upon
entering the submenu, a list of devices will be displayed. Using the
and
keys, find
the controller name and press the key to get access to the list of functions. To
program the controller name, use the N

controller name.
5.1 Parameters, options and functions
Name
– individual name of device (up to 16 characters).
Tamper signaled in partition
– the partition in which tamper alarm will be triggered in the
event of module tamper.
No auto-reset after three module tamper alarms
– it is possible to disable the feature
limiting the number of tamper alarms from the expander to three (this feature prevents the
same events from being repeatedly recorded and applies to consecutive, non-cleared
alarms).
Response period
– communication with wireless devices takes place in specified intervals.
The controller is then gathering information on the status of wireless devices and, if
necessary, sending commands to the devices, e.g. switching the detectors to their
active/passive state, switching on/off the test mode and/or changing configuration of the
devices. The response period can be 12, 24 or 36 seconds. The less often communication
between the controller and the wireless devices takes place, the more wireless devices
can work within each other's operating range (12 seconds – up to 150, 24 seconds – up to
300, 36 seconds – up to 450). Beyond the response period, information about tampers of
devices and violations of detectors operating in active mode are sent to the controller. The
response period has an effect on the level of energy consumption by the wireless devices.
The less often communication between the controller and the wireless devices takes
place, the lower energy consumption and the longer battery life are.
