Ricochet MT2 Addendum
4 ADD068
Devices
Introduction
The firmware upgrade now requires that Ricochet™ devices are learned through the Zone Setup Menu, and Premier Elite SmartKey™
are learned through the User Setup menu, the "Configure Radio" menu in Engineer's Utilities is now redundant and should not be used.
Learning Devices
To learn a device to a Zone select the Zone from the Zone Setup Menu, Zones that are capable of having a Ricochet™ device learnt to
them will be displayed as follows:-
Fig 1
Fig 1indicates the pre-assigned zone number, the expander being used and the device slot on the expander.
Once a device has been learnt the display will be as Fig 2:-
Fig 2
If you are unsure if a zone already has a device learned to it, you can go to the menu as in Fig 1, press and then if a
device is already learnt the display will look like Fig 2, if not then it will look like Fig 3
Fig 3
Please see the diagram on the next page to learn devices.
Deleting Devices
To delete devices from the expander is the same as learning them; choose the zone you wish to delete, and follow the procedure to
learn the device, when the screen shows “Learning” press
.
Device Modes of Operation
Always Awake
This mode should only be used on devices which are required to signal at all times and is the default setting for the Impaq Contact-W
and Impaq Plus-W.
Auto Mode
When in Auto Mode, devices poll at 15 minute intervals. Following activation, devices will not transmit the same activation again for a
period of 3 minutes.
Hybrid Mode
Hybrid mode is used to control the reporting functions for devices. When in the mode devices are asleep when the system is set, and
are woken up by the control panel at the point of arming. When the system is disarmed the devices will be put back to sleep. This mode
of operation is the default mode for XT-W, QD-W & DT-W.
On very large systems (100 devices +) a small delay may be experienced when arming the system, this is normal as the
expanders on the system wake up the relevant devices.
Premier Elite DT-W should ALWAYS be used in Hybrid mode, failure to do this will have an adverse affect on battery life.
Expander O/P Mode
Expander O/P modes are for future use and should not be used with any of the devices listed above.
Zone Types & Attributes
These are all the same as before and detailed instructions for programming can be found in INS176-8 or later.
