RF transmitter T16
test period is 24h. It can be shortened down to 1 hour. ARC monitoring software automatically tracks
the test message. A warning is generated if there are no test messages from the object.
First test delay
– specify the time for delaying the first message after powering on. The goal is to be
able to spread out the sending of messages across the day (24 hours) to avoid network overloads.
Specify times for 1st and 2nd channels.
Send test only if there is no event
– check the box to send test messages only when there are no
event messages being sent.
PING period
– specify the time interval for sending PING signals
.
The main objective of PING
messages is to monitor the operation of the protected object’s equipment.
PING messages are
generated in short intervals
(every 5-10 minutes) and sent. PING messages are automatically
monitored by the ARC receiver. It is important to understand that the radio network is meant to be
used for transmitting messages about events, this means that PING messages can only be used for
the most important protected objects in a network to avoid a network overload.
Send PING only if there is no event
– check the box to send PING signals only when there are no
event messages being sent.

“RS485 modules” window
“Modules list” tab
RS485 master mode
– tick the box and master mode will be enabled for the RS485 bus (slave mode
is on when the box is not ticked).
Detect external RS485 device automatically
– tick the box to enable automatic identification of
modules connected to the RS485 bus.
Send confirmation to panel
– if an IP transmitter (WiFi, LAN, GSM) is connected to the
T16
’s RS485
bus as a main channel, when the box is ticked the control panel receives a confirmation that the sent
message was received. This ensures that message transmission is more reliable. Not all panels have
this option. If the chosen panel does not have this option, the box will be inactive.
Module Type
– select the module connected to the transmitter’s RS485 bus from the list.
Serial No
– specify the serial number of the connected module. You can find the number on a sticker
on the connected module or its packaging.
Note:
You can only connect one of each of
TM17
and
W485
modules to the
T16
transmitter.
