    This manual comprises the instructions and commands necessary to install and program the IMS-1000. Additional summary and application chapters are included to help you speed program- ming and to understand IMS-1000’s features. You should thoroughly read this manual to establish a basic understanding of the system and keep it as a reference.

  • Page 20: Installation And Configuration

    IMS-1000 Manual INSTALLATION and CONFIGURATION Physical Description The IMS-1000 is housed in a 14"w x 1.75"h x 7"d enclosure, which is 1 EIA rack-mount space high. Front Panel Layout The front panel contains connections for eight sensor inputs, Ethernet port, and status LEDs. See...

  • Page 21: Sensor Input Leds

    Chapter 1: Installation Since the sensor produces an analog signal, it must connect directly to the IMS-1000. The path from the sensor to the IMS unit CANNOT pass through a network Hub or Switch. Sensor Input LEDs Each sensor input has two LEDs (red and green) to indicate the present status of the input. The key below describes the multiple modes of operation.

  • Page 22: Alarm Led

    IMS-1000 Manual Output LED The Output LED is a visual indication that the Output Relay has been activated. Alarm LED The Alarm LED is a visual indication that a Power, IP Alarm, or Battery Alarm exists. When blinking this LED indicates that the alarm is un–acknowledged, a “steady–on” led indicates that the alarm is acknowledged.

  • Page 23: Operating Environment

    The IMS-1000 can be installed on a tabletop or shelf. Follow the steps below: 1) Attach the four self-adhesive rubber feet to the four corners on the bottom of the IMS-1000. 2) Place the unit on a tabletop or shelf and connect the power adaptor into a 115VAC outlet.

  • Page 24: Connecting Sensors

    For example: Suppose you have an IMS-1000 installed in room A and you want to install a sensor in room B. If your existing cabling infrastructure has an unused cable path between room A and room B, then you simply use an RJ-45 interconnect cable to connect the IMS-1000 to the patch panel in room A, and an RJ-45 intercon- nect cable from the wall jack in room B to the sensor.

  • Page 27: Battery Maintenance

    The IMS-1000 includes an internal UPS that automatically switches to battery backup in the event of an AC power failure. The battery in the IMS-1000 is a 6V 3.4AH sealed lead acid. This battery will keep the unit operating for approximately 3.5 hours when fully charged and under normal oper- ating conditions.

    Remote Web Page The IMS-1000 can send a copy of its web page to another web server via FTP (File Transfer Protocol), so that the web page can be viewed on another network (for example, on the Internet). The unit can create both an html file for normal desktop viewing and also a wml file for viewing with a portable device (cell phone, pocket computer, etc…).

  • Page 33: Viewing The Remote Web Page

    Viewing the Remote Web Page To view the remote web page that the IMS-1000 uploaded, you need to know its web address. This address corresponds to the Server name, plus the directory, plus the file name of the web page. It will look something like this: http://www.mycompany.com/www/index.html...

  • Page 34: Voice Settings

    IMS-1000 Manual Enter the telephone number of the IMS-1000 in the Unit Phone Number field. This will appear on alarm messages delivered to numeric pagers and fax machines. Set the Rings Until Answer number. This value determines how many times the line must ring before the IMS-1000 will answer.

  • Page 35: Deleting A Profile

    The Contacts are the actual telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, pager numbers, etc… that the IMS-1000 will contact when an alarm occurs. You can have up to 4 Contacts per User Profile. Only Contacts which are Enabled when the alarm occurs, will be contacted. E–mail and SNMP contacts will be sent immediately, telephone calls will be dialed in order.

  • Page 36: Voice Calls

    IMS-1000 uses industry standard TAP protocol, which is supported by most pager systems and cell phone carriers. The IMS-1000 will send the type of alarm, the name of the unit, the Input name, the current value, the programmed high or limit, and the time of the alarm. To program an alphanumer-...

  • Page 37: Fax Calls

    Once you’ve configured the Input Templates, connect your sensors. This will automatically load the template programming for each sensor. All sensors connect to the IMS-1000 via RJ45 connectors. This allows you to use your existing structured cabling for wiring sensors throughout your infra- structure.

  • Page 39: Environmental Input Alarm Logic

    The IMS-1000 monitors the presence of all connected sensors to insure the reliability of the sys- tem. When a sensor is unintentionally removed from a IMS-1000 for more than a minute, a trouble alarm is generated and messages will be sent to all contacts.

  • Page 40: Special Notes

    The IMS-1000 will “test” the programmed IP Address (or Domain Name) on a configurable inter- val. If the address fails to respond the IMS-1000 will go into alarm and notify you of the problem. A more extensive description of the logic is detailed at the end of this section. Note that for voice...
  • Page 41 “Requires Connect Only”. Alarm Timeout: This is the time allowed for the IP device to respond back to the IMS-1000 when it runs its test. If the device fails to respond in the programmed time then it is considered a fail- ure.

  • Page 42: Alarm Logic

    For example: If the ping Retries is set to 3, then the IMS-1000 must fail to ping/connect to the device 4 times in a row (initial attempt + 3 retries) to trip an alarm. If the device were to respond after the second attempt, then the failure counter would reset, thus requiring four subsequent successive failures to trip an alarm.

This will bring up the Camera Setup screen (see below).

  • Page 45: Voice Recording And Assignment

    Custom voice messages can be recorded and assigned to each environmental input and IP alarm. You can also record a message to identify your IMS-1000’s loca- tion. The messages must be recorded by dialing-in to the unit using a touch-tone telephone. When you have finished speaking your message, press any touchtone to stop the recording.

  • Page 47: Channel View

    The more data being logged, the faster the history log will fill up. The IMS-1000 can store up to 100,000 records. The eventlog contains time-stamped messages that describe activities performed by the unit such as alarm detection, user logins, telephone calls, and alarm acknowledgement.

  • Page 49: Saving And Loading Programming

    Saving and Loading Programming The programming in your IMS-1000 can be saved to a file. This gives you the ability to back up your programming or copy the same programming to another IMS-1000 unit. Note that the file you save will not include parameters from the Network Configuration page.

  • Page 50: Configuring The Relay Output

    Configuring the Relay Output The IMS-1000 includes a relay output that can be used to control a light, siren, or other low voltage device. The output is a Form-C Normally Open/Normally Closed mechanical relay and is rated for 1A 30VAC or 1A 24VDC. A sample wiring diagram is shown below:...

  • Page 51: Modes Of Operation

    The output can be programmed to operate in either manual mode or one of two automatic modes (Alarm Condition or Unacknowledged Alarm). The different operating modes are described below: Manual Mode: The output can be operated by using the IMS-1000 Web Page or via touch-tone command during a voice call-in.

  • Page 53: Chapter 3: Operation

    This chapter explains how the IMS-1000 operates. Alarm Delivery and Acknowledgment The IMS-1000 will start with the first profile and attempt to send an alarm message to each con- tact. The 1000 will then proceed to the next User Profile. All e–mail, fax, snmp, alphanumeric and numeric pager contacts will be sent the alarm message.

    Figure 1: Connections to the IMS-4850 Cabling The Dry Contact Bridge connects to the IMS-1000 via an RJ-45 cable (e.g. CAT5 cable). The connection from the sensor to the IMS-1000 can utilize your existing network wiring infrastructure. For example, the sensor may be installed in another room or another floor. Connect the bridge to your structured wiring network via an RJ-45 jack.

    All IMS Solution sensors are auto-configured when you plug them into the IMS-1000. When a new sensor is plugged into the IMS-1000, the configuration is set to the factory default via the Sensor Template. If you have modified these templates, the configuration will be set to the modi- fied configuration.
