1. Introduction
1.1 The eight input UHF transmitter has been designed to operate in conjunction with
the EMS IRIS 7256 radio receiver. The transmitter unit is a 12 volt operated device
and comprises of a 500mW transmitter fitted with an additional printed circuit board
allowing the activation of eight opto isolated inputs. Each of the inputs can be
separately programmed into the IRIS receiver therefore allowing individual
identification via text descriptions. The inputs themselves can also be programmed
to operate either normally open or normally closed and the transmitted data from
the input can be selected from Alarm, Local, Tamper, Low Battery or Remote Reset.
1.2 As each input is opto isolated, a negative is required to be applied to one side of the
input. To trigger the input, a positive voltage should be applied if the contact is
programmed as normally open or removed if normally closed (see Figure 4 on page
19 for details). On an input activation a signal will be transmitted to the receiver
and displayed in the format programmed i.e. Alarm: Zone Area 1 for an input that
has been set as an Alarm input and programmed with the text description Zone
Area 1.
2. Tools & Test Equipment
2.1 Only standard hand tools are required to install the transmitter unit. The transmitter
is supplied with the inputs factory set as follows: -
If an inputs orientation requires alteration, Windows HyperTerminal with a serial a
lead will be required.
3.1 Remote devices and high gain aerials may also be required depending upon the
customers specification and requirements. Please note both the eight input
transmitter and the IRIS receiver will require an external power supply. Figure 1
shows a typical IRIS radio system, whilst Figure 2 shows an alternative system
using a Single Channel 7703 Receiver: -
5.1 The transmitter unit has the facility of allowing each of it’s inputs to be individually
configured. The settings for each input are as follows with the menu commands
required shown in brackets:- Inputs unique identification code (ID). Orientation of
the input to normally open or normally closed (CON). Inputs transmitted data on
activation, which ranges from Alarm, Local, Low Battery, Reset, Tamper and Not
Used (TYPE). Inputs mode of operation which can be selected between a contact
operated device which will also transmit input restored data or a hand push device
which must be used for certain types of transmitted data and does not transmit
restore data (MODE). A full explanation of all input settings and the operation of
the inputs if selected is described in more detail in the following paragraphs under
their menu commands headings.
5.2 The inputs have their settings defaulted to the following parameters: -
Inputs 1-8.............. ID: A0001-A0008
Con: Normally Closed
Type: Alarm
Mode: Current State
5.3 To allow access into the programming menu the computer should be set up using
windows HyperTerminal:-
PLEASE NOTE: Examples shown below are from Windows XP. Other
versions of Windows may vary.
To start a new HyperTerminal session, click on the ‘Start’ button.
Then select ‘Programs’ and then ‘Accessories’.
Now select ‘Communications’, then ‘HyperTerminal’.
You will then be presented with the following screen: -
Once the settings are as above, click on the ‘OK’ button then on the next window click on
the ‘OK’. We can now establish a connection by selecting ‘Call’ and ‘Call’ as below: -
Once completed, HyperTerminal is configured.
Please Note: To prevent future reconfiguration, the HyperTerminal session can
be saved for future use.
6.1 Each of the transmitters inputs have their individual identification numbers set from
this menu. This allows the input to be added into the IRIS receiver with a unique
number. The identification numbers are defaulted to range from A0001 - A0008 for
inputs 1-8. Under normal circumstances this menu should not require changing.
6.2 The only time the default settings will require changing is if additional transmitter
units have been added to an existing installation. If this is the case a print out
should be taken from the IRIS Receiver and the transmitter ID settings checked.
The new transmitter can then be added to the system ensuring that the new inputs
id’s do NOT correspond with any already programmed into the IRIS unit.
6.3 To change the inputs identification number, from the command menu type id and
press the enter key. The display will then show:
Input No: 1
ID code (hex) is A0001
Change Y/N?
To change the ID press Y and then the enter key, the display will now show:
New ID Code (hex)
Enter the new ID code and press enter. If the hex number is a valid number the
display will change to show:
New ID Code (hex) NNNNN (Where N represents new code)
NNNNN
Input No: 2
ID code (hex) is
Change Y/N?
Repeat for all inputs if changes are required. If all changes are complete press the
enter key until the display returns to:
COMMAND id, con, type, mode
Txd, quit >
7. CON
7.1 Each of the transmitters inputs can be programmed to operate via a normally open
connection or normally closed configuration. The default setting for all of the inputs
is to normally open. If this requires changing, from the command menu type con
and press the enter key. The display will then show:
7.1 Each of the transmitters inputs have a type setting, which sets the kind of alarm
data that is transmitted to the Iris Receiver. The setting is defaulted to alarm for
each of the inputs, but can be changed to one of the following depending on the
overall systems requirements:-
8.2 NU = NOT USED: - If selected no output transmission will be generated when triggered and no call in’s signals from the input will be transmitted.
8.3 RESET: - If selected on triggering this input the IRIS receiver will be remotely reset.
To ensure correct operation this input requires it’s mode setting programmed to
hand push, it must also be added into the IRIS receiver as an Interrogator hand
push and the IRIS requires 7202 Interrogator software installed.
8.4 LOW BATTERY: - If selected on triggering this input a low battery alarm
transmission will be sent to the IRIS receiver. To ensure correct operation this input
requires it’s mode setting programmed to hand push and should be added into the
IRIS as an opposed action hand push. It should be noted that the first transmission
from a low battery input will not be seen but every subsequent transmission from
the input will be registered on the IRIS.
8.5 TAMPER: - If selected on triggering this input a tamper alarm transmission will be
sent to the IRIS receiver. To ensure correct operation this input requires it’s mode
setting programmed to hand push and should be added into the IRIS as an opposed
action hand push.
8.6 LOCAL: - If selected on triggering this input a local alarm transmission will be sent
to the IRIS receiver. This input can have it’s mode setting set to either hand push
or contact and can be added into the IRIS as an opposed action hand push or N/O
contact operated transmitter. If the mode is set to contact the input should be
added into the IRIS as a Local N/O contact, this will then send input restored data
when the input goes clear. If the input is not clear when the IRIS receiver is reset,
a message will be displayed on the IRIS telling you that the input has not reset. If
the mode is set to hand push the input should be added into the IRIS receiver as an
opposed action hand push, this does not transmit input restored data as explained
above.
8.7 ALARM: - If selected on triggering this input a full alarm transmission will be sent
to the IRIS receiver. This input can have it’s mode setting set to either hand push
or contact and can be added into the IRIS as an opposed action hand push or N/O
contact operated transmitter. If the mode is set to contact the input should be
added into the IRIS as an Alarm N/O contact, this will then send input restored data
when the input goes clear. If the input is not clear when the IRIS receiver is reset,
a message will be displayed on the IRIS telling you that the input has not reset. If
the mode is set to hand push the input should be added into the IRIS receiver as an
opposed action hand push, this does not transmit input restored data as explained
above.
8.8 If the type requires changing, from the command menu type type and press the
enter key. The display will then show:-
Input Number 1 is Alarm
Change Y/N ?
To change press Y and then enter. The display will then change to the following:
Enter new type 0 = NU, 1 = RESET
2 = LOWBAT, 3 = TAMPER, 4 = LOCAL, 5 = ALARM
Enter the required number and press enter. The display will now show:
Input Number 1 is NNNNNN ( Where N is the new option chosen)
Input Number 2 is Alarm
Change Y/N ?
If you don’t require the input to be changed press N or Enter. The display will then
change to show the next input.
This continues until all 8 contacts are looked at. On answering Y/N to contact 8 the
display will change to show the command menu. To check settings type type to reenter menu.
9. MODE
9.1 Each of the transmitters inputs have a mode setting, which sets the operation of
the input. The unit has two modes contact and hand push. The default for all inputs
is set to contact.
9.2 If contact is selected the input should be added into the IRIS receiver as a N/0
contact operated transmitter, this will then cause the input to transmit data on both
an activation of the input and the reinstating of the input. This will be shown on the
IRIS when its being reset, as it will show which inputs have not transmitted their
restored signals by showing that the input is not reset. This contact setting is only
recommended when the alarm type is set to either a local or alarm transmission.
9.3 If hand push is selected the input should be added into the IRIS receiver as an
opposed action hand push transmitter, this will then cause the input to transmit
data on an activation of the input. This setting can be selected for all alarm types
and is imperative for the correct activation of alarm types low battery, tamper and
reset.
9.4 If the mode requires changing, from the command menu type mode and press the
enter key. The display will then show:
Input Number 1 is CONTACT
Change to HANDPUSH Y/N ?
To change press Y and then enter. The display will then change to the following:
Input Number 1 is HANDPUSH
Input Number 2 is CONTACT
Change to HANDPUSH Y/N ?
If the input does not require to be changed press N or Enter. The display will then
change to show the next input.
This continues until all 8 contacts are looked at. On answering Y/N to contact 8 the
display will change to show the command menu. To check settings type mode to
re-enter menu.
10. TXD
9.1 The txd function when entered causes each of the inputs being used to transmit
three bursts of call in data. To enter this function type txd from the command
menu and press the enter key. The display will then show,
Transmit Call Ins
Call in 08EA0000
Call in 08EA0000
Call in 08EA0000
Call in 08EA0001 }
Call in 08EA0001 } This is call in data for input 1
Call in 08EA0001 }
This is then repeated for all active inputs showing each of the inputs ID’s in three
transmitting bursts. Once completed it will carry on repeating the above sequence.
To exit this function press the enter key 3 times.
11. QUIT
11.1 To update any information changed and exit the programming mode quit must be
typed followed by pressing the enter key. The program mode is then exited. The
display will then show any transmissions from the transmitter in the following
format:
