SATEL INT-KWRL2 3
Support for proximity cards
The built-in proximity card reader enables the system to be operated by using proximity cards
(any 125 kHz passive transponder in the form of a card, tag, etc.). Where the alarm system is
not to be operated by proximity cards, the reader can be disabled (to prolong the battery life).
Battery status control
If the voltage of any battery is lower than 2.75 V:
low battery information is sent during periodical communication,
after the keypad wake-up, a low battery message is displayed (the message will specify
which battery is to be replaced – see also Fig. 3).
The battery life depends on how the keypad is used. The more frequently the keypad
is woken up, the quicker the batteries will be depleted.
3. Installation
There is a danger of battery explosion when using a different battery than
recommended by the manufacturer, or handling the battery improperly.
Be particularly careful during installation and replacement of the batteries. The
manufacturer is not liable for the consequences of incorrect installation of the
battery.
The used batteries must not be discarded, but should be disposed of in
accordance with the existing rules for environment protection.
The keypad is designed for indoor installation. The place of installation should be readily
accessible to the system users. When selecting the installation location, take into account the
communication range of the ABAX 2 / ABAX system.
1. Open the keypad enclosure (Fig. 2). The enclosure opening tool, shown in the illustration,
is included in the keypad delivery set.
2. Install the batteries and add the keypad to the wireless system (see “Adding the keypad to
the wireless system”).
3.
Put the cover on the catches and snap the enclosure shut.
4. Place the keypad in the location intended for its installation.
If you want to hold the keypad in your hand when checking the radio signal level, grab
the device from its left side (on its right side, there is the antenna, which must not be
covered).
5. Check the level of signal received from the keypad by the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller. If the
signal level is lower than 40%, select another place for installation. Sometimes, it is
sufficient to shift the device ten or twenty centimeters to obtain a considerable
improvement in the signal quality. Only after the optimal level of radio signal is achieved
can you proceed to the next step.
The ARF-200 tester makes it possible to check the radio signal strength at the place of
future installation without having to put the keypad there.
