Care must be taken when connecting devices to the bus over long cable runs. This is to ensure maximum system integrity under all circumstances (battery backup etc.). Pyronix recommends using standard 0.22mm cross sectional area, unshielded multi-core alarm cable for Matrix installations.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 4.1 System Examples A Matrix System is required to provide the following: 6 PIR Detectors (15mA each). A bell-box (max. current draw 400mA) connected to PGM1. 2 Matrix ICON Keypads (60mA each), one 50m away, and the other 100m away. A Matrix Transistor Output Expander (30mA) with 3 LEDs (10mA each) and 3 buzzers (12mA each) controlled by the outputs (accompanying the keypad 100m away) power supply.

The toolbar at the top of the screen provides the following functions: Add a new customer. Edit the currently highlighted customer and will open the customer edit window. Delete the currently highlighted customer.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.2 Editing Customer Information Enter the customer details using this window. The toolbar at the top of the screen provides the following functions: Close window. If changes to the customer have been made since the last save then a prompt is shown to warn that the details need saving.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.2.1 Global Information Enter details about the customer’s control panel. Your Reference No. This is a unique code for the customer. This is only entered when adding a customer, once saved this cannot change. Panel Type This is a list of available panel types.
Press OK to create the backup. The file that is created is called the same as the Customer Reference number. For example, if the Customer Reference is “20” then the database created will be called “44.mdb” and is stored in the directory “C:\Program Files\Pyronix UDL Software”. Customers are imported from the Customer Explorer screen.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.4 Entering Panel Details & Uploading/Downloading to the Panel From the Customer Details screen click on to edit the panel programming data. The panel details screen is split into separate screens or tabs. The drop down list showing V2.2 in the above screenshot is the panel version.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 Instruct a panel to dial you back. This is only available when connected to a panel. See section 12.4.5 for more information. Get data from a panel. This is only available when connected to a panel. See section 12.4.7 for more information.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 To create more Default Records or Templates, press the New button or select the option Default Record on the main menu as shown below. 11.4.2 Normal Dial to the Panel To perform a normal dial to the panel press this icon. Before performing this operation the Master User needs to enter TZ on a keypad connected to Panel to allow the digital modem to detect ringing from the PC.
Whilst connected to the panel the operation of upload/download is that same as for connecting using a modem over a telephone line. To select the Com port to use, see section 11.5.1. The required cable is available from Pyronix. 11.4.5 Dial Back When connected to a panel the engineer can request that the panel disconnects the current upload/download session and dials a specified telephone number to start a new session.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.4.9 12.4.9 Online Panel Information Shows maintenance information about the panel when connected. Shows the status of each partition, zones, devices and faults. Partition Information Shows information for each partition. Press the 1 to 4 buttons to get information on each partition. A Green circle shows which mode the panel is in apart from Alarm, which is shown as a Red circle.
Another issue to consider is Software Modems, internal modems that use the PC's processor instead of their own processor. Pyronix has not carried out extensive testing on this type of modem, and our recommendation is that you replace the modem with a hardware modem.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 ATS10=255 Compatible Modem - Most new modems do not allow the S10 register to be set to 255, see the modem manual for a description of what the S10 register does. If connection is being lost around 25 seconds after connecting to a panel unselect this option.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.5.4 Configuring Dial Back Options Dial Back Number - This is the number that the panel will dial. Answer Tone Time - When the panel dials it will keep the answer tone going for this length of time, the value of this can be 1 to 51 seconds.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.5.5 Configuring Computer Network Options This will allow the use another database stored in another directory or computer. This could be a directory on a network so that multiple PCs can share the same customer information. The steps to follow for creating a network version are: Create directory on Network - Using Windows Explorer create a directory on the network.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.5.6 Character Set Options This is used for displaying and editing LCD keypad text on the panel information screen. Selecting the correct Charset on this screen will allow the correct editing of this text for the Matrix LCD screen. Failure to set this correctly could result in incorrect data being sent to the panel.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.5.7 Customer Map Select the paint package to use on the PC when creating panel maps. Any paint program can be used as long as it can save images in BMP or JPEG format. Page 116 RINS428-5...
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.5.8 Configuring Other Options Print out panel details every time you save - Select this to get a print out of the panel details when saved. Auto save Details before a Data to Panel - This will save the panel details before the data is sent. If there is a problem with the data then the data is not sent.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 11.6 Using Help Access the help system from the Help menu on the main screen. The help system is divided into the following sections: Customer Information - Shows how to manage customers within the system. Panel Information - Shows how to upload/download and contains descriptions for each feature for all supported panels.
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 Section 12: Installation, Service & Maintenance Installation This section makes no attempt to detail how one should install an alarm panel. It does however provide some basic information relating to the Matrix alarm panel with regards to installation, service and maintenance. For details concerning mechanical panel installation and cable routing, please refer to sections 4 &...
Matrix 832 / 832+ / 424 Telephone Line Monitoring It is advisable to periodically check that the alarm panel can still contact the CMS. The Matrix alarm panel provides a suitable function that allows the CMS to be test dialled periodically, see section 9. The panel also monitors the telephone line and will generate a system fault if the line is removed, however the presence of a line does not guarantee the ability to dial a CMS.
