Instruction Manual Alarm Duration The alarm duration indicates the total length of the alarm sound. It is independent of the selected alarm sound. Note: Independent of the input (e.g.: 3.567 seconds), the actual value is calculated to one decimal place (here e.g.: 3.5 seconds).
Page 30
Instruction Manual Note: Independent of the input (e.g.: 3.567 seconds), the actual value is calculated to one decimal place (here e.g.: 3.5 seconds). Toggle Relay You can use this slide switch to set the relay on and off for a toggling behaviour. If the relay is toggled, you can set the switching interval in the next input field.
Instruction Manual Add HDF-SPEECH Adding the HDF-SPEECH is identical to adding the HDF-BUZZER. With the only exception that voice alarm is supported. The HDF-SPEECH alarm centre has an additional mp3 voice output card. Up to three different voice or sound messages can be stored in mp3 format. Different voice or sound messages can therefore be assigned to different HDF sensors.
Instruction Manual Important note: If you want to issue long voice alarms without interruption with the HDF-SPEECH, it is recommended that you also switch on the buzzer alarm with a short siren tone. If another alarm is triggered during the long voice output, it is indicated by the short siren tone.
Page 33
Instruction Manual With the exception of the mp3 file for the voice alarm on the HDF-SPEECH, however, basic settings (such as alarm times or switching times) cannot be changed. This can be used to output different voice messages for different sensors. It is also possible, for example, to connect external sensors with a pre-alarm detector (e.g. laser scanner with several curtains) to an HDF-EXTERN alarm module.
Instruction Manual Important notes: HDF-ANTIJAM should only be used in conjunction with HDF-AMD. HDF-ANTIJAM generates coded signals at regular intervals that are used to monitor the radio room. Monitoring is automatically activated as soon as HDF-ANITIJAM is linked with HDF-AMD. HDF-ANTIJAM must not be linked to an HDF alarm centre (HDF-BUZZER or HDF-SPEECH).
Instruction Manual Notes: Programming is not possible without the correct password. HDF-Admin The default password is: · Press the [Programming button] in the HDF-CONFIGURATOR software. · The software indicates the successful programming of the HDF alarm unit. · You can now switch off the alarm centre, remove the mini-USB cable, close the casing of the unit and mount the unit in its original position.

Instruction Manual Setting up HDF alarm management Flex The Human Detector Technology enables the user to utilize a cost-effective and very efficient alarm management system. All alarm messages are monitored here by one or more central alarm management devices (HDF-AMD). The alarm messages are forwarded to various smartphones and other end devices. The so-called PROFI-Mode provides the option to forward alarm messages silently to the respective security personnel.
Page 39
Instruction Manual The following entries can be made: Name Create and enter a short and meaningful name. The word "AMD" will be replaced in the alarm device list by your specified name. A meaningful name could be, for example, "HDF-AMD Main Building". Hardware ID The hardware ID consists of the letters AMD- followed by a 6-digit hexadecimal number.
Instruction Manual Creating alarm areas An essential part of an alarm management system is the forwarding of alarm messages to the responsible security personnel. The HDF-CONFIGURATOR software enables you to completely map your property with several buildings, exhibition halls, rooms and room areas, if applicable. This enables the detailed allocation of alarm areas.
Instruction Manual Assign alarm areas to HDF sensors After adding the HDF-AMD and setting up the alarm areas, the individual sensors need to be linked to the alarm areas and the HDF-AMD. The required action window is displayed when you click on the desired sensor in the sensor list. You can apply the following settings: Reports to HDF-SUPERVISOR App The forwarding of alarm messages to the HDF-SUPERVISOR app can be enabled via a slide switch.
