The control of the system is possible through the integrated HTML5 web-page which runs on the integrated web server, while control through commands or the Audac Touch™ application is also possible. To ensure a reliable connection, always use CAT5E (or better) cabling and 10 Mbit compatible network infrastructure. -
Page 11: Contact Description
NOTE The use of the dry contact inputs will priority over the digital control functions. There won’t be any direct feedback or monitoring possible through to the digitally controlling devices. All connects must be “dry” contacts (voltage free) Relay input contacts: The relay input connections are available on the upper side of the ARU20x and are marked with the x2 (x2’) and x4 (x4’) indicators. -
Page 12: Internal Settings
Internal settings The following settings are configurations which might be required to get configured one single time when setting up / configuring the system. They are configured through jumpers which are located on the PCB of the ARU20x housing, requiring the top cover from being removed before making any adjustment. - Page 13 Normal mode / paging mode: These jumpers (JP2) allow selection of the operation mode between normal and paging mode. The unit is default configured to be used in paging mode. Paging mode (default) Normal mode Paging mode: At power-on, all relays will be activated and will be switched to background music mode.

Chapter 3 Wiring up the system NOTE Make sure the power of the system is switched off, when any changes to the connections are being made. RS485: In case your system is using the RS485 bus protocol, avoid making any star structured constructions in your cabling. -
Page 16: Chapter 4 Application Examples
Chapter 4 Application examples Example 1: The above diagram shows an example of a simple and basic setup with an APM1xx paging console in an analogue paging setup, combined with an ARU20x relay unit. Besides the APM1xx paging console, a background music source (ISP40 in this typical setup) is con- nected. -
Page 17: Chapter 5: User Interface & Configuration
When application specific or total system control is required, the ARU20x can be controlled using the Audac Touch™ application. This application allows to custom configure your control panel (Dashboard) according to project or user specific requirements. -
Page 18: Dashboard
NOTE If application specific limitations or restrictions for certain functions are required, the system control can be done through the Audac Touch™ freely available application, which allows you to create customized control dashboards. Dashboard The dashboard (main) screen gives an overview of all the buttons, which are required for triggering and activating the relays. -
Page 19: Events
Events The events screen gives an overview and provides the possibility for programming up to 50 timer scheduled actions. Various actions such as switch on, switch off, pulse and radio can be programmed. They can be programmed on single occasions (date) or recurring times (repeat). NOTE When using the timer scheduled events functions for the ARU20x, it shall be connected to a network with access to a time server. -
Page 20: Settings
For single recurring events the option ‘Date’ should be selected and the date shall be entered in the format DD/MM/YY, where DD stands for day, MM stands for month and YY stands for year. The time when the event should take place shall be entered in the format HH:MM:SS, where HH stands for hour, MM stands for minutes and SS stands for seconds. - Page 21 The DCHP function is standard switched off and can be turned one by clicking and enabling the corresponding indicator.
