Assigning Addresses
You must assign an Address
to each of the BPI bus devices. The assigned Address
will allow the Control panel to distinguish one device
from another. The Peripheral devices are divided into
types: Keypads, Readers, Input Expanders, Output Ex-
panders and Power Stations.
Devices of the same type
(e.g. two Readers) must
have
different Addresses
.
Devices of different types
(e.g. a Keypad and a
Reader) are intrinsically different, therefore, may have
the
same Address
. The BPI bus peripheral Addresses
can be assigned in any order, using the DIP switches
80
(refer to Table 1).
+
Output Expanders
have
4 DIP switches
, and can
be assigned to Addresses
no. 1 through no. 16
ONLY
.
For the relevant Address Combinations refer to the
numbers in brackets in Table 1.
+
Refer to the Power Station Instructions leaflet, and
the Alison/32LP keypad Instructions leaflet, for the
Address setup. Power Stations can be assigned to
Addresses
no. 1 through no. 8 ONLY
. The posi-
tion of DIP switch no. 1 in uninfluential.
Setting the BPI Level
The BPI Level determines the
maximum voltage the BPI bus can carry. Some BPI de-
vices have 5V and 12V options.
+
This Control panel operates at 12V, therefore, all
the peripheral devices must be set at
12 V.
Using the Jumpers
69
and
70
, set the BPI Level as fol-
lows:

Refer to the Power station Instructions leaflet for
the BPI Level setup.
ALISON/32LP ASSIGNING ADDRESSES
To assign
the addresses to the ALISON/32LP Keypad and Prox-
imity Reader work carefully through the following step:
1.Remove the frontplate in order to generate a Tamper
status.
2.Connect the Keypad to the Control panel BPI BUS
(ter, C, R, -).
3.Remove the jumper
73
:
Ø
after 5 seconds the keypad will emit an audible signal and the 4
LEDs on the left (89a in Figure 8) will turn ON;
Ø
the four pairs (up/down) of LEDs (
89d
in Figure 8) will simu-
late 4 DIP switches;
Ø
one of the first pair of LEDs will blink to indicate ac-
cess to the Addressing phase.
4.Assign an Address to the Keypad.
Ø
Use
A
or
B
to select the LED/DIP switch.
Ø
Use
C
or
D
respectively, to turn the LED ON or
OFF as required, in accordance with the following
logic:
Upper RED LED ON
= DIP switch
ON
Lower LED ON
= DIP switch
OFF
Ø
If you wish to cancel the setting
and restart, press
e
.
+
NOTE: You can assign the same Address to the
Keypad and Proximity Reader as these devices
are intrinsically different.
5.Press
E
to confirm the selected Address:
Ø
after several seconds the Keypad will emit an audi-
ble signal, and the 4 LEDs on the right (see 89b in
Figure 8) will turn ON to indicate access to the Ad-
dressing phase of the built-in
Proximity Reader
.
Ø
If you DO NOT wish to use the
Proximity Reader
,
press
o
. The ALISON/32LP will go back automati-
cally to the
Keypad
Addressing phase, at which
point, go to step
8.
in this section.
Ø
If you wish to use the
Proximity Reader
, go to step
6
.
6.Following the instructions in step
4.
, assign an Ad-
dress to the
Reader
.
Ø
If you wish to cancel the setting and restart, press
e
.
+
NOTE:
If you press
e
at this point, the
ALISON/32LP will cancel the setting and step back
to the
Keypad
Addressing phase.

Once you have assigned the
Keypad
and
Reader
Addresses, press

column shows the DIP switch number (1 through 5
for devices with 5 DIP switches, and 1 through 4 in brackets for devices with 4 DIP switches).
