When assigning a specific key on an additional clone transmitter to a
specific output channel on a receiver, a predefined procedure is followed
which can be decided at will if the radio transmitter storage is carried out by
means of
UNIRADIO
, or otherwise is identical to the key transmitter
procedure.
For fixed code clone creation, refer to the
UNIRADIO
instructions or
observe the following simplified procedure:
1) Switch
UNIRADIO
on and wait for the welcome message.
2) Use the
<arrow up>
and
<arrow down>
keys to select item
<go the
menu number>
.
3) Press
<enter>
.
4) When in the subsequent menu, type number 213 and press
<enter>
.
5) Select menu
<fixed code cloning>
and press
<enter>
.
6) Follow the instructions appearing on the
UNIRADIO
display.
10.3) COLLECTIVE RECEIVERS
Collective installations can be carried out by means of the
UNIRADIO
programmer. For instance, just one transmitter can be used to control a
“
collective
”
receiver (ref.
“
C
”
, Fig.5), and an
“
individual
”
receiver (ref. PX,
Fig. 5).
In this type of installation, the appropriate codes need to be assigned to the
various receivers by means of UNIRADIO.
Each code is made up of 10 figures in hexadecimal format (thus figures from
0 to 9 as well as characters A-B-C-D-E-F are allowed), e.g.:
1A9C-22FD-00
The first eight characters represent the actual code, the last two figures
represent the type of receiver, either collective or individual. If the last two
figures are equal to 00, it means that the receiver is preset for collective
operation, whereas if the last two figures are different from 00, it means that
the receiver is preset for individual operation. Therefore, if you wish to carry
out an installation similar to the one illustrated in Fig. 5, you will need to
assign a collective code to receiver
“
C
”
(e.g.
1A9C-22FD-00
) and then
assign the same code to the individual receivers, except for the two last
figures which must be in progressively increasing sequence (
1A9C-22FD-
01,1A9C-22FD-02, 1A9C-22FD-03
etc.).
All the transmitters programmed with a particular code will therefore be
automatically enabled to activate both the collective receiver (being provided
with the same initial code number) and their own individual receiver (being
provided with the full code number).
If necessary, a transmitter can be set exclusively to activate the collective
receiver by being assigned the entire collective receiver code (in our
example 1A9C-22FD-00).
WARNING!: The installation code will have to be chosen with care,
avoiding codes which are too simple and codes which have already
been assigned during previous installations.
In
“
Communal buildings
”
installations, no additional cloning
operations can be carried out by means of the
“
Master
”
transmitter,
since the code is directly assigned by the installer.
The codes ending with letters FB, FC, FD, FE and FF are not valid.
At this point it will be possible to program all the radio transmitters required,
using the
UNIRADIO
programmer, managed by the
EEdbase
software if
necessary.
NOTE: The EEdbase software provides a more efficient installation
database management and a simpler storage procedure in the case of
complex installations.
Programming of receivers is carried out through UNIRADIO according to
the following procedure:
a) Configuration of complete parameters for each receiver by means of
UNIRADIO
b) Transfer of programming data to the receiver.
a) Parameter configuration
1) Switch
UNIRADIO
on and wait for the welcome message.
2) Use the
<arrow up>
and
<arrow down>
keys to select item
<go the
menu number>
.
3) Press
<enter>
.
4) When in the subsequent menu, type number 243 and press
<enter>
.
5) Configure the receiver following the instructions displayed on the
screen:
list definition:
enter 64
output configuration:
not active for this panel
description:
indicate the name of the list, maximum 15 characters
receiver code:
enter the assigned receiver code, paying attention to the
distinction between
“
collective
”
and
“
individual
”
receiver.
clone default:
assign the required output to the required transmitter
key, taking care to avoid assigning a key to an individual receiver, which
has already been assigned to a collective receiver, or vice versa.
Example: T1 output 1 (Start) = collective receiver and
T2 output 1 (Start) = individual receiver
b) Transfer of programming data
6) Exit the list parameter menu by pressing
<ESCAPE>
and return to the
initial menu.
7) Use the
<arrow up>
and
<arrow down>
keys to select item
<go the
menu number>
.
8) Press
<enter>
.
9) When in the subsequent menu, type number 223 and press
<enter>
.
10) Connect the receiver to be programmed as indicated in Fig.4.
11) Wait for the data to be transferred.
Repeat this procedure for each receiver to be memorised.
Refer to the
UNIRADIO
instructions for further details.
Then use the individual receiver codes to set up all the required radio
transmitters, following the instructions given in paragraph 10a
“
Rolling-
code cloning with code
”
.
You can carry out creation and cloning of other radio transmitters at
any time by using the code number assigned, which is chosen at the
installer
’
s or user
’
s discretion. You are therefore advised to write it
down on the appropriate card supplied and to give it to user of the
“
individual
”
receiver (Fig.6).Note the type of receiver configuration
(rolling code or fixed code) on the card, in order to avoid errors in any
subsequent transmitter cloning operations.
To create replacement clones, you need to have the complete receiver
memory data; therefore, if you plan to carry out replacement cloning
operations by remote control, you need to memorise the contents of the
receiver memory by reading it using
UNIRADIO
and entering it in the
EEdbase
database.
NOTE:
For installations in the
“
collective receivers
”
mode, it is advisable
to create a complete installation database, by means of
EEdbase
, containing
the data for each receiver and transmitter, and to number progressively
each memorised transmitter, in order to be able to carry out additional or
replacement cloning operations, even years later, without needing to make
changes directly to the receivers.
Refer to the
UNIRADIO
instructions and to the on-line
EEdbase
software
guide.
WARNING!:
The cloning procedures specified in paragraph 10 give a
simplified explanation of how to carry out cloning, without having the clones
created contained in a database.
Refer to the
UNIRADIO
instructions for further information concerning the
creation and management of a database.
11) CENTRALISED SERIAL CONNECTION
The control unit already manages the local Start, Stop, Photocell and
Pedestrian commands.
Besides operating locally, the control unit is also preset for operating in a
centralised installation, by means of an accessory, including several
“
zones
”
grouping together devices which are compatible with the protocol.
A master panel must be chosen in each zone, the commands of which are
carried out by all the other devices belonging to the same zone. A
“
centralised
”
command can therefore be sent via wire by means of the
master panel to a given zone: the devices contained in that zone will carry
out the said command. Besides deciding on the zone master panel, you
must configure the zone address for each device included in the centralised
installation. The Altair panel can be included in the centralised installation
both as zone master and as slave (only carrying out commands). Moreover,
a centralised installation via wire can be obtained both by closing the
connection loop (fig..) and by leaving the connection loop open. With the
loop closed, each zone master unit is able to check command completion
by each slave unit, and to update certain statistics relating to loop
composition; the failed commands will therefore be repeated after a few
minutes. With the loop open, these operations cannot be carried out, all the
other functions however remaining unchanged. Therefore, the zone number,
master/slave and closed loop/open loop values must be set in the panel.
Here follows the procedure for setting these parameters.
11.1) Programming of centralised installation through Unipro
Connect the
UNIPRO
programmer to the control unit by means of the
UNIDA
accessory (see fig.4). The Altair control unit does not supply the
UNIPRO
programmer, which therefore needs an appropriate supply unit.
Enter the
“
CONTROL UNITS
”
menu, the
“
PARAMETERS
”
submenu, and
the
“
SPECIAL PARAMETERS submenu; then scroll the display screenfuls
