sequential actions on the SMARTGUARD keypad. To assist you, the
combined state of the three LED indicators on the keypad correspond
with particular steps within a procedure. When carrying out the
procedures, please be aware of the following:

The CENTURION SMARTGUARD is a durable, quality keypad designed
to provide high-security access control to restricted areas. The unit is
weatherproof, and the keys are backlit for ease of use at night. Access
is granted by the keying in of a valid access code. The access code can
vary from one to ten digits. Up to one thousand different access codes
can be stored within the unit's non-volatile memory. New codes can be
added, and existing codes deleted as required. "Token" codes can be
added, allowing only a preset number of activations, after which the
code becomes invalid. Each code can operate one or more of the three
available outputs. The first output is a potential-free relay contact
capable of switching up to 3A at 50V. Both normally-closed and
normally-open contacts are available. The second and third outputs are
open collector channels, capable of directly switching any negative
triggered equipment, or an external relay. The output channels can be
set as pulsed or latching, with pulse times adjustable in one second
increments between one second and four minutes. The open collector
output channels can be used with the optional CP105 SmartSwitch,
allowing secure control of equipment a distance away from the main
unit. An anti-hack feature can be enabled, causing the unit to shut
down after a pre-selected number of incorrect codes have been
entered. The unit will then reset after a pre-selected time. A telltale
LED will indicate that the anti-hack feature has been triggered. The
third output channel can be used as an alarm channel, triggered by
various panic or alarm conditions. The relay output can be activated by
an external pushbutton, giving free-exit capability. Once programmed,
the system can be backed up onto the optional CP108 backup module.
This allows the system to be easily restored if required. An optional
independent tamper switch can be fitted to provide a contact indicating
if the unit has been forced open, or removed from its mountings.

The following procedure sets the conditions under which the Alarm
channel (Channel 3) will activate. This also sets the anti-default and
tone mute features.

The following alarm conditions can be set:

Duress (Code + )(Default=off)

Adding to the last digit of an access code activates the unit as
normal, but also activates the alarm channel. This is used if entering
under duress. E.g. If the access code is , entering
gives access, but also activates the alarm

Alarm ( + )(Default=off)

Pressing the and keys simultaneously activates the Alarm
channel.

Wrong Codes (Default=off)

When the number of wrong codes is exceeded, the Alarm channel is
activated.

Anti-default feature (Default=on)

Setting this feature prevents the Master Code and system
parameters from being reset by the defaulting features.

Alarm Tone Mute Feature (Default=off)

Setting this feature turns off the audible feedback when entering a
code. This prevents an eavesdropper from determining the number of
digits in the code. Tones will still be present in Programming Mode.

For your convenience you will find an Address Register included in
your SMARTGUARD packaging. Use this Address Register to record
which addresses have been assigned, their access code and which
channel will be activated by that address.

The supplied Address Register will record the first 500 addresses, from
0 to 499. Should you require a second Address Register to record the
next 500 address, i.e. address 500 to 999, please contact your
nearest CENTURION SYSTEMS branch or distributor.

Keep the address register in a safe place!
