4 Programming Manual SATEL
"Yes" (the control panel will only wait 10 seconds after power-up for the firmware
replacement to begin). Then the replacement of control panel firmware will start.
2. Programming
The alarm control panel may be configured for operation by using the keypad (locally) or
the computer with the DLOADX program installed (locally and remotely).
2.1 Keypad
Programming is only possible when the control panel is accessible to the service. By default,
the PERMANENT SERVICE ACCESS option is enabled ([code] X0. SERVICE
X5. PERM. SV. AC). After the installation is completed, the user having the
DOWNLOAD/SERVICE privilege can disable the PERMANENT SERVICE ACCESS option and
define each time the duration of service access to the control panel ([code]
X0. SERVICE X6. ACCESS TIME).
Programming the control panel from keypad is carried out by using the functions grouped in
the service mode menu. Access to the menu, submenus and particular functions is facilitated
by numerical shortcuts. In case of the LED keypad, programming is subject to some
limitations (e.g. entering names is impossible). SATEL recommends that the LCD keypad
be used for programming the control panel.
The service mode is indicated on the keypads by means of the blue LED. The LED is
lit on the keypad in which the service function menu is available, while it is blinking on all the
other keypads connected to the control panel. The service mode may also be signaled
acoustically, after the corresponding option is enabled. Additional information is provided by
the LED, which is:
– blinking during navigation throughout the menu and submenus;
– lit when any service function is running.
When in the service mode, the alarm system signals no alarms.
2.1.1 Starting the service mode
1. Enter the service code (by default: 12345) and press the key.
2. Press in turn the
keys to start the service mode.
2.1.2 Starting the service mode "from pins"
If entering the service mode in the normal way is impossible, you can use the emergency
hardware procedure, so-called starting "from pins".
1. Power down the control panel (first, switch off power in the 230 V AC circuit, to which the
control panel transformer is connected, and then disconnect the battery).
2. Place a jumper across the RESET pins on the control panel mainboard.
3. Power up the control panel (first, connect the battery, and then switch on power supply in
the 230 V AC circuit, to which the control panel transformer is connected).
4. Wait a few seconds and remove the jumper from the RESET pins.
5. On the keypad with the lowest address, the
LED will light up and the LED will start
blinking, indicating that the service menu is available on the keypad (in case of the LCD
keypad, the menu will be displayed). On the other keypads, the
LEDs will start
blinking.
