When using two door monitor strips together on one door, it is necessary to program both units with the
same door and area number but different door extension numbers. (Usually 1 & 2)
(a) First set the required Door Identity Number (which particular door).
Use a small screw driver to turn the rotary program switch (0 – 15 positions) and set desired Door Identity
number. Observe that positions A = 10, B = 11, C = 12, D = 13, E = 14, F = 15.
Press the “Mode” button once and the unit will beep/flash once to acknowledge.
Note: When more than one sensor strip is used on a door, when an alarm is activated a wireless signal is
automatically sent to activate its partner sensor strip having the same door ID code. This ensures that
both monitors activate when protecting the same door, or area.
(b) Next (while still in “programming” mode), set required Area Number
Turn the rotary program switch to desired area number. (“0” up to “7”, only).
Press the “Mode” button once and the unit will beep/flash to acknowledge.
Setting a zero (0) will allow the signal to be accepted by all central monitors.
(c) Now set the door extension number.
As two strips are normally used on a door/area, the left hand strip is usually set to “1” and right hand strip
is set to “2”. Also, to identify which door strip is faulty in the case of a failure being detected by the central
monitor using the self checking procedures.
Press the mode button again.
(d) Set Door Lock Application Time
If electric door lock/s is to be used, you can now set the door lock application time using the same rotary
switch. Note that this switch sets multiples of 5 seconds.
If the door is closed, the lock/s will be immediately applied when a wristband comes within the detection
range of the door monitor and will be released a short time later. No main alarm is triggered in this
situation. Automatic lock release timing is dependent upon the setting of this rotary switch in five second
intervals (approximately).
During the “lock/s applied” time the buzzer can emit a “steady” sound (selectable at J11) as a pre-alarm
warning and to indicate to the patient that the door is locked. For example, setting “3” = 3 x 5 = 15
seconds, or setting “5” = 5 x 5 = 25 seconds etc.
When the lock is released after the set “time-out”, should the door be opened (activating the “normally
closed” magnetic door contacts) and the patient still be inside the detection zone a main alarm will
immediately be triggered. Staff is required to “reset” this main alarm at the particular door/area.
Note: Setting “0” at the rotary switch permanently applies the lock, until the alarm at the monitor is reset.
Now, press the “Mode” button once again and the unit will beep/flash to acknowledge.
A few seconds later, the sensor strip will automatically leave programming mode and return to “normal”
operation.
