1 INTRODUCTION
The Atlas 8 is a fully featured intruder alarm control panel, based around a micro-controller with 8 fully programmable
zones. It may be operated via a single Remote Keypad, a maximum of 3 remote keypads (Atlas RKP’s) may be fitted at
convenient points around the premises. Each keypad has an arrangement of 8 LED’s to show the status of the system,
and a 7-segment display to show programming data and events held in the event-log memory.
All features are fully programmable and there are three levels of access to the system.
The Limited User codes allow access to the basic functions needed for everyday Setting and Unsetting of the
system.
The Master User level gives access to all Setting and Unsetting facilities, but also allows the changing of code
numbers and testing of the system.
The Engineer level gives total access to the system including the ability to reconfigure the system and reset the
system event-log memory. The Engineer cannot, however, Unset the system.
2 SAFETY
The 17V a.c. supply to the control panel is connected into the PCB terminal blocks marked 17~. Signal wires to
detectors, etc., should be securely tied together on completion of the installation, to prevent the possibility of a safety
hazard in the event of a wire becoming loose.
This equipment is not suitable for location in bathrooms or damp conditions.
3 ACCESS LEVELS
3.1 Limited User Level Enables: 1. Panel Setting and Unsetting with a unique pass code.
2. Enabling or disabling of the door chime facility.
3. Event log viewing.
3.2 Master User Level Enables: All Limited User facilities.
4. Clearing of event log (if allowed by the Engineer).
5. Omitting zones.
6. Alteration of both Limited and Master User codes.
7. LED / Strobe / Bell / Extension Speaker test facility.
8. Walk test facility for all four Set modes.
9. Programmable output operations.
10. Remote Dial in enabling.
3.3 Engineer Level Enables: a. All Master User facilities except Unsetting.
b. Zone programming for all four Set modes.
c. Bell timer setting.
d. Entry / Exit timer settings.
e. Alteration of Engineer code.
f. Enabling or Disabling of Event log reset by Master user.
g. Programming of communication and programmable output options.
4 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
4.1 Operating Modes
Day Mode This is the state of the panel when unset. Fire, Personal Attack and Tamper inputs, however,
remain active 24 hours a day. (These are referred to as 24 hour zones).
Day mode is identified by the day text displayed on the top line of the LCD on the keypad.
Set Modes When the panel is set an activation of any Access, Immediate or 24 hour zone will cause an
alarm condition. When an alarm is generated the internal and external sounders will operate for
the length of time programmed and the tone of the internal sounder will be two notes repeated
rapidly. The strobe lamp will also be activated and will continue to operate until the panel is reset.
At the time of setting the control panel, any one of four Set modes can be selected. i.e.
Set A: Whole system set; nobody on premises.
Set B: Upstairs off, Downstairs set.
Set C: Upstairs set, Downstairs off.
Set D: Garage and kitchen off, remainder set.
The above are purely examples. The Engineer has the ability at the programming stage to configure
all the circuits to the customer's exact requirements.
