GENERAL DATA
Some background data on the 4600 series signalling format will help you
understand the more complex functions. The code sent by the transmitter is a 12 bit
data frame repeated for approximately 1.5 seconds. To indicate a low battery, the
transmission time is extended to approx. 7 seconds. These 12 bits can be used for
different functions according to the application.
They are split as follows:
The first x bits are site (or house) code.
The next y bits are unit (or zone) code.
The last z bits are data bits, by convention, they are
lettered, in order, DCBA (Max 4 bits only)
For example, the 4600 radio alarm panel has 6 site code, 4 zone code and 2 data
bits.
FUNCTIONAL MODES
Before attempting to use any new mode, refer to the operational notes at the end
of this document.
The unit has many different operational modes selected by the DIL switches and
control input C. It also has an input speed selection DIL switch (FAST).
The main modes are:
1.
Single channel, A input, low to trigger.
2.
Single channel, A input, bi-directional to trigger (A inverted).
3.
Boat/caravan, single zone panel + transmitter, with built-in delay timer.
4.
Alarm/tamper with restore on both alarm and tamper.
5.
2 channel, bi-directional trigger on both A and B inputs.
6.
Two channel, bi-directional trigger only on B input.
7.
Two channel, with B input configured for tilt switch. `includes built-in delay
timer and pre-transmit warning
bleep.
8.
Four channel mode. Four button capability but will send only the first button
pressed. ( multi-key lockout.)
9.
Four button/two channel mode. Two pairs of buttons turn on/off '9' internal
memories in the transmitter. Only if a change in a memory has occurred will a
transmission be sent. (Nursecall mode.)
10.
Two button/two channel mode. Sends both buttons as they are pressed
(either together or separately).
11.
Self-test. Sends the 12 DIL switch code, regardless of the operational mode.
In all modes at the end of a transmission, the 12 site/unit code DIL switches are
scanned and remembered by the unit. When the transmitter is next activated it uses
that data for the new transmission. Not all the 12 bits will be used; depending on
which mode is used, up to 4 data bits are altered according to the input states.
HOW TO SELECT A MODE.
1.
Single channel, mode 'A' trigger, for 4611, 4612, 4613, 4618/9 & 4660/75
transmitters.
'MODE O' and 'MODE 1' DIL switches must be ON.
Inputs B and C
must not be connected.
