Introduction The ACM (Advanced Communication Module) is a communication accessory for the ProSYS control panel, for enhancing its hardware and software connectivity. It enables TCP/IP Ethernet connectivity and enables usage of existing LAN and WAN infrastructures for the transfer of security data. The ACM offers full functionality of the ProSYS over TCP/IP, and provides Ethernet and Fast Modem Interface.
Customizable according to project requirements ♦ Fast modem interface 56-kbps Compatibility The ACM module is compatible with the ProSYS 128, software version 3.10 and above. The ACM is compatible with Rokonet U/D Software Version 1.8 and above. Advanced Communication Module - Installation Guide...
Mounting & Connections The ACM may be mounted onto the ProSYS main board using the provided plastic spacers or in a special accessory box (P/N: RP128B300UKA). NOTES Handle the ACM module with care when installing it. 2. When attaching an ACM box to the wall, it is recommended to use Ø4.2mm, 32mm length screws (DIN 7981 4.2X32 ZP).

Quick Key Parameter [5][1][1][1][1] Defines the CS (Monitoring Station) telephone number connected to the ProSYS panel. Up to 32 digits may be typed in to define the CS telephone numbers, including dialing prefixes and area codes or special letters. For more information refer to the ProSYS Installer manual.
Defining ACM Parameters From the Dialer menu [5] press [0][2] to enter ACM Parameters Menu. Quick Key Parameter ACM IP ADDRESS [5][0][2][1] The static IP address that identifies the ACM module on the network. Default: 192.168.001.100 ACM U D PORT [5][0][2][2] The port address of the ACM U/D application.

Quick Key Parameter REMOTE UPGRADE of ACM [5][0][2][8]-[9] Remote upgrading allows remote downloading of upgraded software over the network. The new upgraded software is stored in a specific IP address on the network. Once the ACM is informed of the new software, it refers to the IP address to download the new software.
Defining the ACM Control Parameters From the Dialer menu [5], press [0][3] to enter the ACM Control parameters Menu. Quick Parameter ACM CONFIGURATION [5][0][3][1] Defines the ACM parameters configuration. CLIENT ATN [5][0][3][1][1] Provision for optional functionality DHCP IP [5][0][3][1][2] Defines whether the IP address, which the ACM refers to, is static or dynamic.
Quick Parameter Provision for optional functionality Defining the Network Control Parameters From the Dialer menu [5], press [0][4] to enter the Network Control parameters Menu. Quick Parameter This option contains parameters that [5][0][4] specify counters for the ACM to establish a connection with the network.
