2 Device Main Features and Functions
2.1
The device is intended for
stand-alone use or to combine up to 16 devices via an RS-485 in-
terface into a network controlled by an Astra-Dozor control panel.
2.2
Device operating mode settings for stand-alone use are configured using jumpers or a PC
(using the Pconf-713 program).
To operate under the control of an Astra-Dozor control panel, the device firmware must be re-
placed using the Pconf-713 program (section 15).
2.3
In
stand-alone
mode, the device performs arming/disarming functions as follows:
- using the button, connected to the TM key input;
- using TM keys or devices that generate a TM format code, for example, the Astra-RVC (the As-
tra-TRC is used as the TM key);
- using alarm loop indicator buttons.
2.4
When
controlled by an Astra-Dozor control panel
, the device loops are distributed in par-
titions that are armed/disarmed in response to commands from the Astra-Dozor control panel. Control
is performed from the Astra-Dozor control panel using PIN codes, TM keys, or devices that generate a
code in TM format. The reader is connected to the TM device input and the TM codes are transmitted
to the Astra-Dozor control panel via an RS-485 interface.
