Satel ARD-100 Manual

The ARD-100 wireless reorientation detector is designed for
operation as part of the ABAX two-way wireless system. The
detector is supported by the ACU-100 controller with firmware
version 2.01 or later and by the INTEGRA 128-WRL control
panel with firmware version 1.07 or later.
Employed in the detector is an accelerometer, which analyzes
acceleration and gravitation. The detector remembers position at
the moment of being switched into active state or entering the
test mode. Changing the position against the remembered one is
interpreted as violation.
Explanations for Fig.1:
1 - screen.
2 - indicator LED. It only lights red in the test mode, when
signaling communication with the controller (during polling),
violation and tamper.
3 - tamper contact which reacts to opening and/or tearing off
the housing from its mounting surface.
5 - CR123A 3 V lithium battery, ensuring operation for approx.
3-year period. The detector monitors the battery status. When
the voltage drops to 2.6 V, a low battery message is sent to
the controller. Indication of the low battery status will
continue until the battery is replaced.

1. Installation

The detector is designed for indoor installation.
Before you mount the detector permanently, check the level of signal received
from the detector by the ACU-100 controller and, if necessary, change the place
of installation so that the location is optimal in terms of communication.
Install the battery inside the detector just before registering it in the controller. If
unregistered or having no communication with the controller, the detector will
consume more energy, which will reduce the battery life.
1. Open the housing.
2. Install the battery and add the detector to the wireless system (see the ACU-100 controller
user manual). A label with 7-digit serial number that should be entered during registration of
the detector in the system is provided on the screen on the electronics board.
3. Select the place where the detector is to be installed and attach it there temporarily.
4. Check the level of signal reaching the controller from the detector. If necessary, select
another place for installation.
5. Fix the rear panel of housing to the mounting surface.
6. Close the detector housing.
7. Set the detector sensitivity and configure the remaining working parameters of the
detector as required. For detailed information regarding configuration, please refer to the
