Astra-R Kit

Wireless Alarm System

Operation Manual

This operation manual describes principles of functioning, proper
use, maintenance and service for the wireless alarm system Astra­R Kit (Figure 1).

The manufacturer reserves the right to make improvements in the
design of the devices without prior notice. The alterations shall be
included into a new edition of the Operation Manual.

List of abbreviations used:
WAS is a wireless alarm system Astra-R Kit;
RVC is a wireless receiver Astra-RVC;
TRC is a wireless transmitter Astra-TRC;
IP is an indication panel Astra-931;
CP is a Control Panel Astra-712 or similar one.

1 Function

1.1 Alarming System

Organization of individual protection and protec­tion of sites by transmitting alarm signals from
registered wireless transmitters via radio and
generating notifications through actuation of
built-in relays, and indication of transmitter num­bers on the display of indication panel Astra-931.

1.2 Remote Control of Electrically
Operated Mechanisms

Organization of control through actuation of built-in
relays within preset time or by latching upon receipt
of signals from registered transmitters.

2 Components

2.1 RVC

2.1.1 RVC is a stationary device designed to:

 receive signals from wireless transmitters via radio, decode

and identify the received signals,

 generate notifications by actuation of integrated relays,
 transmit numbers of transmitters to IP Astra-931 through seri-

al interface.

2.1.2 RVC is able to register up to 25 TRCs, and it saves this in­formation when power is off.

2.1.3 RVC is powered from an external stabilized power supply
unit Astra-712/0 or a similar one.

2.2 TRC

2.2.1 TRCs are small self-powered wireless transmitters designed

to generate and transmit encoded signals upon pressing a button
on the transmitter.

2.2.2 In order to avoid discharging of the battery TRC will stop
transmitting in 10 s after the button is pressed, if the button is held
down.

2.3 The manufacturer guarantees a minimum communication

range of 150m between the receiver and the transmitter in line of
sight in areas with dry ground, and in the absence of strong radio
interference, and objects interfering with and reflecting radio
waves. The communication range between the receiver and the
transmitter can be cut down to 30 m inside concrete buildings and
in presence of radio interference.

5 Structure

5.1 RVC

The receiver is designed as a unit consisting of a base, removable
cover and antenna. There is a printed circuit board with radio ele­ments inside the unit (Figure 2).

Figure 2

The printed circuit board contains a terminal block:
OUT is an input/output of serial interface;
ТМP is a pair of terminals connected to the button contacts which
are closed if the front cover of the receiver is closed, and opened
when the cover is opened;

+ 12V, GND are power supply terminals;
NO is a terminal connected to a normally open relay contact;
NC is a terminal connected to a normally closed relay contact;
COM is a terminal connected to a common relay contact.

The printed circuit board contains green and red indicators for
RVC operability supervision and notification indicating.

5.2 TRC

The wireless transmitter is designed as a key fob consisting of a
front cover and a base (Figure 3).
The front cover contains a button and a printed circuit board with
radio elements.
The printed circuit board contains an indicator controlling opera­tion of the TRC.

6 Information Capacity

6.1 RVC

 Green indicator:
 blinks 1 time per 4 s, if RVC functions properly;
 illuminates during registration of TRC into RVC memory;
 blinks 2 times per 1 s within 4 s indicating successful regis-

tration;

 blinks 2 times and switches to blinking 1 time per 4s indicating

failed registration.

 Red indicator indicates status of relay contacts:
 illuminates when normally open (NO) contacts are closed.
 The interface line OUT transmits TRC numbers and informa-

tion on discharged battery to IP Astra-931.

6.2 TRC

Indicator:

 illuminates when the button is pressed indicating transmis-

sion of encoded signals;

 blinks when the button is pressed indicating discharged ba ttery.

8 Pre-starting Procedure

8.1 It is advisable to leave the unpacked receivers and transmit-

ters in operating conditions for at least 2 hours, after they have
been transported in conditions which differ from operating one.

8.2 All the TRCs included in the delivery set have already been reg-

istered in RVC. Additional TRCs must be registered in RVC memory
as described in 8.4.2 of the present Operation Manual.

8.3 Clearing RVC Memory

Clear (erase) the receiver memory before registration of the first
transmitter.

1) Remove the front cover of the receiver (see 11.2).

2) Install jumpers on F1 and F2 plugs.

3) Power the receiver up.

The green indicator on the receiver will blink 1 time per 4 s.

4) Press and hold the button until the green indicator is off. The

receiver memory is clear.

5) Power the receiver down.

8.4 TRC Registration in RVC Memory

Transmitters shall be registered one after another in any succession.

After successful registration the receiver shall “remember” a

unique serial number of the transmitter in its non-volatile memory
and assign a reference sequential number following the order of
registration.
An illustrated manual describing registration of transmitters is pro­vided in Annex A.

8.4.1 Registration of First Two TRCs

1) Remove the front cover of the receiver (see 11.2).

2) Install jumpers on F1 and F2 plugs.

3) Power the receiver up.
The green indicator on the receiver will blink 1 time per 4 s.,
while the red indicator is off.

4) Briefly press the button on the receiv-

er. The green indicator will illuminate. The
receiver will switch to the registration
mode for 30 s.

5) Press the button on the transmitter

which is to be registered (Figure 4). The

green indicator on the receiver will be off.

6) Press again the button on the trans-

mitter which is to be registered. (Figure 4).
The green indicator on the receiver will be

blinking 2 times per 1 second within 4 seconds.
It will indicate successful registration.
The green indicator will blink 2 times and switch to the standard
mode (blink 1 time per 4 seconds). It will indicate a failed registra­tion.
Possible causes of failed registration:
