Antenna Installation - BFT ALTAIR Instructions D'utilisation Et D'installation

ANTENNA INSTALLATION

Use an antenna tuned to 433MHz.
For Antenna-Receiver connection, use RG8 coaxial cable.
The presence of metallic masses next to the antenna can interfere with radio
reception. In case of insufficient transmitter range, move the antenna to a
more suitable position.
8) RECEIVER CONFIGURATION
The Clonix64 receiver combines the characteristics of utmost safety in
copying variable code (rolling code) coding with the convenience of carrying
out transmitter "cloning" operations thanks to an exclusive system.
Cloning a transmitter means creating a transmitter which can be included
automatically within the list of the transmitters memorised in the receiver,
either as an addition or as a replacement of a particular transmitter.
Cloning by replacement is used to create a new transmitter which takes the
place of the one previously memorised in the receiver; in this way the lost
transmitter is removed from the memory and will no longer be usable.
Therefore it will be possible to remotely program a large number of additional
transmitters, or for example, replacement transmitters for those which have
been lost, without making changes directly to the receiver.
When coding safety is not a decisive factor, the Clonix receiver allows you
to carry out fixed code additional cloning, which although abandoning the
variable code, provides a high number of coding combinations.
PROGRAMMING
Transmitter storage can be carried out in manual mode, or by means of
the UNIRADIO programmer which allows you to create installations in the
"collective receivers" mode, as well as manage the complete installation
database using the EEdbase software.
The Clonix 64 receiver is programmed by connecting UNIRADIO to the
ALTAIR control panel, using the UNIFLAT and UNIDA accessories, as
shown in fig. 4.
9) MANUAL PROGRAMMING
In the case of standard installations where advanced functions are not
required, you can proceed to manual storage of the transmitters, making
reference to fig. B for basic programming.
RADIO MENU (RADIO)
- Add
Allows you to add one key of a radio control device to the receiver memory;
after storage it displays a message showing the receiver number in the
memory location (from 01 to 64).
Add Start button (add start)
associates the required key to Start command
Add 2ch button (add 2ch)
associates the required key to 2nd radio channel
- Read (read)
Checks one key of a receiver; if stored it displays a message showing
the receiver number in the memory location (from 01 to 64), and the key
number (T1, T2, T3 or T4).
- Eliminate list (erease 64)
WARNING! Completely removes all memorised radio control devices
from the receiver memory.
- Receiver code reading (RX code)
This displays the code entered in the receiver.
Note: Hidden key P1 appears differently depending on the transmitter
model.
For transmitters with hidden key, press hidden key P1 (fig.B1).For transmit-
ters without hidden key, the key P1 function corresponds to simultaneously
pressing the 4 transmitter keys or, after opening the battery compartment,
bridging the two P1 points by means of a screwdriver (fig. B2).
IMPORTANT NOTE: ATTACHTHE ADHESIVE KEY LABELTOTHE FIRST
MEMORISED TRANSMITTER (MASTER).
In the case of manual programming, the first transmitter assigns the key
code to the receiver; this code is necessary in order to carry out subsequent
cloning of the radio transmitters.
10) RADIO-TRANSMITTER CLONING
Rolling-code cloning / Fixed-code cloning
Make reference to the UNIRADIO Instructions and the CLONIX Program-
ming Guide.
10.1) ADVANCED PROGRAMMING: COLLECTIVE RECEIVERS
Make reference to the UNIRADIO Instructions and the CLONIX Program-
ming Guide.
11) CENTRALISED SERIAL CONNECTION
The ALTAIR control panel allows several automation units to be connected in
a centralised way by means of appropriate serial inputs and outputs (SCS).
This makes it possible to use one single command to open and close all the
automation units connected.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
Following the diagram in Fig. 4, proceed to connecting all the ALTAIR control
panels, exclusively using a telephone-type line.
Should a telephone cable with more than one pair be needed, it is indispen-
sable to use wires from the same pair.
The length of the telephone cable between one appliance and the next must
not exceed 250 m.
At this point, each of the ALTAIR control panels must be appropriately con-
figured, by setting a MASTER unit first of all, which will have control over all
the others, to be necessarily set as SLAVE (see logic menu).
Also set the Zone number (see parameter menu) between 0 and 127.
The zone number allows you to create groups of automation units,
each one answering to the Zone Master unit. Each zone can only be
assigned one Master unit, the Master unit in zone 0 also controls the Slave
units in the other zones.
Loop closing of the serial connection (indicated by a dotted line in Fig.4)
is only needed if you require to check the no. of the connected devices by
means of UNIPRO.
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).
Make reference to the UNIPRO Instructions for further information.
11.2) Programming of centralised installation through display
The display programmer available in the board allows you to set all the AL-
TAIR control panel functions. Make reference to fig. A and B. Set the zone
number in the PARAMETERS menu, and set the closed loop/open loop and
master/no master values in the LOGICS menu.
12) DIAGNOSTICS
In the case of malfunctions, the display shows a message indicating which
device needs to be checked:
STRT = START
STOP = STOP
PHOT = PHOT
PED = PED
OPEN = OPEN
13) STATISTICS
The statistics are managed by the UNIPRO.
In addition to the standard statistics, the following advanced statistics are
available:
- Number of zone operating units (advanced statistics) Address 16: indi-
cates the number of actuators belonging to the same zone as that of the
master (only updated in the master boards).
- Number of total operating units (advanced statistics) Address 17: indi-
cates the number of actuators connected (only updated in the master
boards).
Make reference to the UNIPRO Instructions for further information.
14) SCRAPPING
Warning:This operation should only be carried out by qualified person-
nel. Materials must be disposed of in conformity with the current regulations.
In case of scrapping, the automation devices do not entail any particular risks
or danger. In case of materials to be recycled, these should be sorted out by
type (electrical components, copper, aluminium, plastic etc.).
15) DISMANTLING
Warning:This operation should only be carried out by qualified person-
nel. When the control unit is disassembled to be reassembled on another
site, proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the power supply and the entire electrical installation.
• In the case where some of the components cannot be removed or are
damaged, they must be replaced.
