Standalone Alarmcard Setup - 360 Vision Predator Ultra Installation & Configuration Manual

Predator Installation Manual V10_1_29_00
4 Standalone Alarm card
The PRED-XALARM-PSU has eight normally open/closed (Dil switch S1, switch 8 on) alarm inputs on
connector CON1 on the alarm PCB, When using normally closed contacts, all unused alarm inputs
must be connected to the alarm in common CON 1. Connect switches or volts free relay outputs from
PIRs or other equipment to CON1 connector is activated. There is also an alarm relay which can be
used to activate alarm s on other equipment (DVR etc.) The Alarm relay contacts (Common - 'C'.
Normally Open - 'NO' are Normally Close - 'NC') use connector CON3 on the alarm PCB.
When an alarm is activated, the ALARM PCB will activate the alarm relay output and will send
commands to set the Predator to activate 'alarm mode'. The Predator will save the current status
(pan, tilts, lens, tour and mimic) then it will seek the preset which corresponds with the active alarm
number

The alarm will remain active while the alarm input is active. After the alarm input becomes inactive, a 10
second alarm timer will start. The timer extends the alarm activity until the alarm timer expired. If the
alarm input becomes active again before the timer has expired, the timer resets and will restarts again
when the alarm input comes inactive and a further preset seek command is sent to the Predator.
If an alarm is active and a further alarm becomes active, the latest alarm will interrupt the previous alarm.
(I.e. the latest alarm as highest priority) The Predator will seek the preset that corresponds with the new
alarm. When contact become inactive, the Predator will seek the preset that corresponds with the
previous highest priority alarm that is still active. When all alarms inputs are inactive the alarm timer
starts. After the timer expires, the Alarm PCB sends a commands to the Predator to end the 'alarm mode'
and the Predator will return to the status position and action that has been saved when first alarm
became active (Fit a link on the alarm card COM4 position 7 to disable the automatic return to the pre·
alarm status when all alarms and the alarm time have expired)
When an alarm is active and the Predator has automatically selected the appropriate preset, it is possible
to send further commands (Manual control) to the Predator which will override the preset which had
previously been automatically selected. Each time an automatic preset seek occurs as described in the
previous paragraph; the manual control will be interrupted.
