GENERAL INFORMATION

5870API is a wireless, supervised asset protection device that is compatible with systems that support 5800 series devices. When affixed to a high-value asset, the device will trigger an alarm if an attempt is made to move or disturb the asset.

For commercial applications, the 5870API must be

ULUL

used in conjunction with the 5881ENHC receiver and compatible control panel.

5870API is for use on objects that do not move frequently or vibrate. Mounting the sensor near sources of vibration may cause false alarm conditions to occur.

PROGRAMMING

Each transmitter has its own unique serial number, assigned during manufacture, which must be “enrolled” in the control panel before the device can be used with the system.

Please refer to the control panel’s installation instructions for details on device enrollment. Please note that you must program a separate zone for each loop you are using on the transmitter.

OPERATING MODES

5870API provides three programming options (loops).

• High Security (Fast Trigger) Mode (Loop 1)

• Standard Security Mode (Loop 2)

• Tilt Mode (Loop 3)

Loop 1 is for high security applications and should ONLY be used if the asset will NOT be subject to external vibration. Loop 2 (Standard Security mode) should be used in most cases.

Selecting the Operating Mode

Table 1 provides a list of 5870API’s various operating modes, with the respective Loop numbers for each.

MOUNTING

The 5870API is mounted directly to the asset being protected via 3M VHB double-sided tape. The device should be mounted in an inconspicuous place on the asset. Refer to Mounting Notes section for additional information.

Tamper Supervision

5870API’s tamper supervision feature (Loop 4) causes a trouble signal to be sent to the control if the sensor is removed from the asset being protected or if the unit’s cover is removed from the base. The tamper switch is also used to program the unit’s serial number and loop assignments in the control panel.

OPERATION

Installer Test Mode- Upon initial battery power up, the unit will transmit each time it is faulted or restored, which enables you to enroll and test the device. After the sensor transmits its first supervisory message (about 7080 minutes after power-up), it switches to normal mode.

Normal Mode - In normal mode there is a 3-minute lockout between transmissions, to help conserve battery life. To return to the installer test mode, remove and reinstall the battery.

Before enrolling the device, perform the following:

1. Remove the “PULL TO CONNECT BATTERY” tab This will allow the device to transmit. For additional transmissions, move or rotate the sensor. When the battery is connected the sensor powers up in the installer test mode. In this mode the sensor transmits fault and restore messages on all loops when it detects motion (or lack thereof).

Table 1 - 5870API Operating Mode Choices

Operating Mode Loop Faults when… Restores when…

High Security (Fast Trigger) Mode - Short Travel Time, minimum movement detection

Standard-security Mode - Long Travel Time, occasional movement detection

Tilt Mode - Intended for boxes with lids that can be opened (e.g.; jewelry or cash boxes).

* Response time will be affected by the type of motion (walking, running, dropping, etc.) as well as other tasks being processed by the panel.

When configured for use with the UL approved control panels (refer to UL Approved Compatible Control Panel list), the panel must be programmed not to transmit off-premises for the 5870API zone only.

If the asset being protected will not be moved under normal circumstances (i.e., a painting), it can be programmed as a 24 hour zone type. If the asset will occasionally be moved when the system is disarmed, it can be programmed as a perimeter zone type.

When installing the 5870API, select an area on the asset that is stable, clean and flat. Avoid areas that are subject to vibration (i.e.; speaker grills)

When using Loop 3 the device must be mounted horizontally.
