Wireless self-learning on [OFF]
ON: Enables wireless memorizing of transmitters (REPLAY, CLONI,):
1-Press in sequence the hidden key and normal key (T1-T2-T3-T4)
of a transmitter that has already been memorized.
2-Press within 10 sec. the hidden key and normal key (T1-T2-
T3-T4) of a transmitter to be memorized.
DIP 11:
The receiver exits programming mode after 10 sec.: you can
use this time to enter other new transmitters.
This mode does not require access to the control panel.
OFF:Disables wireless memorizing of transmitters.
Wireless memorizing disabled: wireless learning of any remote
control disabled (including CLONI and REPLAY).
Fixed-code receiver setting [OFF]
DIP 12: ON: Receiver is configured for operation in fixed-code mode.
OFF:Receiver is configured for operation in rolling-code mode.
5.3) ZONE SETTING (Fig. 3)
When you set DIP switch n°6 to ON, you enter zone setting mode allowing you
to set zones via the board. In this mode, you can assign a zone number from 0
to 7 to the device. Use a universal handheld programmer to set values in the
range 8 to 127.
NOTE: if DIP switch n°10 is set to ON (transmitter management), this switch has
priority over n°6, which means you will not be able to enter zone setting while
wireless management is on.
While in this mode, the LED flashes as follows to show that the relevant zone has
been set correctly:
- zone 0: the LED stays permanently lit;
- zone from 1 to 7: the LED blinks a number of times equal to the number of the
zone set;
- zone from 8 to 127: the LED blinks rapidly and continually.
6) WIRELESS SETTINGS AND MANAGEMENT (Fig. 2)
Transmitters that can be used with the Elba panel can have 2 or 4 keys. There are
two possible ways of associating keys with commands:
- free: any key can be associated with the START command;
- automatic: t1 = START, t2 = STOP, t3 = OPEN, t4 = CLOSE.
Each command can be valid for a zone or room depending on how the board
has been set up (master/slave).
NOTE: While in wireless management mode, wireless commands are not executed:
once you have finished, remember to set DIP switch n°10 to OFF.
6.1) TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING ON START OUTPUT (Fig.2)
6.2) AUTOMATIC TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING (Fig.2)
In the fixed key association, if key 1 is pressed in phase b), all the four keys are
automatically associated to the respective functions, if another key is pressed (2,
3 or 4), only keys 2, 3 and 4 are automatically associated.
By appropriately memorising the transmitter keys on the various receivers, a
centralised-type system can be obtained without having to connect the control
panels via wire. For this purpose, use transmitters with 4 keys, and memorise all
transmitters on all the system panels using key 2 and each of them on an individual
panel using key 1; this way key 1 (START) will only control the operator where
it has been memorised, whereas keys 2 (STOP), 3 (OPEN) and 4 (CLOSE) will act
globally on all operators (fig. 5).

6.4) DELETING LIST OF TRANSMITTERS (Fig.2)
6.5) FIXED-CODE RECEIVER
Using DIP switch n°12 you can set the management mode for transmitters that
have been memorized in the receiver built into the ELBA panel:
- DIP 12 OFF: rolling-code mode (default setting).
- DIP 12 ON: fixed-code mode.
6.6) PROGRAMMING THE RECEIVER USING EELINK PROTOCOL
The receiver can also be programmed using the EElink protocol by connecting
the universal handheld programmer via the UNIFLAT and UNIDA accessories as
illustrated in fig. 6.
For receiver programming, refer to the programmer's instructions. A total of 63
remote controls can be memorized.
When it comes to output arrangement, the ELBA control panel acts as a 4-channel
receiver in which outputs have the following functions, regardless of program-
med operation:
- output 1: START (local command with 2- or 4-step logic);
- output 2: STOP (zone and local stop command);
- output 3: OPEN (zone and local open command);
INSTALLATION MANUAL
- output 4: CLOSE (zone and local close command).

7) CENTRALIZED CONNECTION

The control panel's special serial inputs and outputs (SCS1) make the centralized
connection of a number of automated devices possible. That way, all the automated
devices connected can be opened or closed with a single command.
Connect all control panels using twisted pair cabling only, proceeding as shown
in the diagram in Fig.4.
When using a telephone cable with more than one pair, it is essential to use wires
from the same pair.
The length of the telephone cable between one unit and the next must not be
greater than 250 m.
At this point, each control panel needs to be configured appropriately, starting by
entering a MASTER control panel that will have control over all the others, which
therefore have to be set as SLAVE units (DIP 5).
Also set the Zone number (DIP 6) in the range 0 to 127 (range 9 to 127 with
programmer).
A centralized system can be produced either with an open loop or closed loop
(DIP 4):
open loop: the connections marked with dotted lines in Fig.4 are not made. When
connecting, the MASTER unit must be the first in the series.
Closed loop: the connections marked with dotted lines in Fig.4 are made. When
connecting, the MASTER unit can be in any position.

8) STATISTICS

By connecting a programmer that is compatible with the EElink protocol, you can
read a number of statistical parameters relating to the system, such as:
Board version: gives the name and version of the board connected.
List description: gives the description assigned to the system. This description
can be entered or edited via the universal handheld programmer.
Number of operations: gives the number of operations that the panel has
performed since its installation.
Number of operations since service: gives the number of operations performed
since the last service, where service means any board configuration operation,
including self-diagnosis.
Service date: gives the date of the last service.
Update service: can be used to update the number of operations since the last
service.
9) SELF-DIAGNOSIS
The panel features a LED that, during the automation system's normal operation,
flashes on and off quickly once a second to indicate that it is being powered and
that no programming modes are active.
If the LED stays unlit, check mains power and make sure DIP switch n°10 is not
set to ON (wireless management on).
If the LED stays steadily lit, or flashes on and off a number of times followed by a
pause lasting approx. 1 sec., or flashes quickly and continuously, make sure DIP
switch n°6 is not set to ON (zone programming mode).
In addition to the warnings provided by the LED, the ELBA panel can be used to
run the self-diagnosis functions provided for by the EElink protocol.
When you run self-diagnosis with the aid of the universal handheld programmer,
you get a diagnostic message telling you what inputs are active, i.e. in a state
other than the normal standby state. Standby state is defined as the condition
whereby no command signal is active and no safety device has been triggered.
NOTE: the twilight sensor input appears as the timer input.
