Page 12: Installation
2. Installation a) Warnings During installation please observe the following instructions: The power supply of the equipment must be connected to an electrical installation that complies with the standardization in force in the country (NFC 15-100 in France). It must be equipped with protections against overcurrent, over voltages, earth faults (maximum 16A rating). - Page 13 Antenna Low loss cable Ground Ground Ground Antenna connection The use of coaxial cable type RG58 (-1dB / m) is not recommended (high loss). ATIM_ARM-SE_UG_EN_V2.5...
-
Page 14: B) Antenna
b) Antenna A bad choice of antenna can have considerable consequences on the quality of the radio link. It is important to use a suitable antenna and, if necessary, a low loss cable to place it in a slightly obstructed area. -
Page 15: C) Mounting
c) Mounting On cabinet A.R.M. radio modems can be supplied with a ½ wave whip antenna angled so that the antenna is positioned vertically directly on the modem. This antenna is interesting if A.R.M. is mounted in a plastic box. In this case the antenna must not be placed against a metal plate (bottom plate for example). -
Page 16: Exterior Antenna (Mast)
Exterior antenna (mast) In this case, you can use the antenna referenced ANT868-BZ with a cable type CFP10 (low loss diameter 10mm). With this type of cable, you can deport the antenna 10 or 20m or more depending on the link budget (we can calculate it for you to know the distance between the two or more points, the type of antenna and the desired cable length). -
Page 17: D) Radiation Pattern
d) Radiation pattern « A radiation or emission diagram is the graphical representation of the spatial distribution of a quantity characterizing the radiation of a radio antenna ... The radiation pattern of an antenna makes it possible to visualize the emission lobes in all three dimensions, in the horizontal plane or in the vertical plane including the largest lobe. - Page 18 The antennas available in our catalog are characterized and their radiation patterns are known. Refer to the antenna user manuals to get the best out of your equipment. Vertical radiation Horizontal radiation ATIM_ARM-SE_UG_EN_V2.5...
-
Page 19: E) Alignment Of The Antenna
On the ARM-SE modems configuration web pages, it is possible to launch test tools to assess the positioning of the antennas. For this, use the transmitter-side pure transmitter emission tests and the receiver-side spectrum analyzer. -
Page 20: F) Radio Channel Selection
f) Radio channel selection The selection of the radio channel is normally done by the coding wheel placed at the rear of the modem otherwise by software configuration. This is only read when the power is turned on, so you must turn off the power, select the radio channel and switch on again for any change. -

Page 22: A) Power Supply
Power supply We recommend the use of our 24V reference ATIM power supply: ALIM220-24V-1A. The power supply must be near the radio modem. The cable for the power supply must be 3 conductors of section 0.5 (blue, brown, green / yellow) and maximum length 3m. -
Page 23: C) Ethernet Link
Ethernet link The ARM-SE modem must be connected to the network by CAT3 or CAT5 cross-over or cross-over cable in accordance with the network device to which it is connected. When switching on, the Orange LED on the RJ45 connector should light up. If this is not the case, check the conformity of the Ethernet cable. -
Page 24: E) Serial Link Rs485
e) Serial link RS485 It is possible to configure the radio modem and also to be able to communicate through this interface. The advantage of the RS485 is to be able to put several devices on the same 2-wire bus (A, B or respectively + and -). -
Page 25: F) Dry Contacts
Dry contacts The ARM-SE is equipped as standard with an input (IN) and a logic output (OUT). It can be controlled by Modbus function. Logical input Logical output ATIM_ARM-SE_UG_EN_V2.5... -
Page 26: Configuration
To access the modem configuration, the IP addresses of the modem and the PC must belong to the same class. Originally, the address class of the ARM-SE is 192.168.0; the station wanting to access its configuration must therefore have a similar address class. - Page 27 Note Beware of PCs with Wi-Fi controllers that can redirect Ethernet traffic on their media. It may be possible to disable this type of controller. Web pages using port 80, this port is normally released, by default, by the firewall. The advantage of an embedded configuration software is that it does not require any installation.
-
Page 28: B) Homepage And Password
Homepage and password @IP of the’ARM-SE by default: 192.168.0.25 Password: default The modem must be connected to a PC via an Ethernet cable in accordance with its network connection (straight or crossed). From an Internet browser, access the modem home page at 192.168.0.25. -

Page 32: B) Repeater
Repeater Synoptic CHANNEL CHANNEL CHANNEL The repeater mode of the ARM-SE permanently switches to receive one radio channel. Any message received on one radio channel is broadcast on another radio channel. ATIM_ARM-SE_UG_EN_V2.5... -
Page 33: Filtering
Limitations The ARM-SE limits the size of repeated frames to 120 bytes. Only the packet mode is compatible with the repeater (see Radio tab> Data Formatting> Packet Mode). Using this mode induces longer communication times than in direct mode. -
Page 34: Setup

Page 35: C) Gateway Modbus
In order to make these modes of communication compatible with each other from an Ethernet connection, the ARM-SE integrates a ModBus TCP / ModBus RTU gateway. The ARM-SE is then seen as a server queried by a client ModBus TCP application. To preserve maximum memory and performance, the user is asked to specify the number of client applications that connect to the ModBus TCP server. -
Page 36: Local Target
Target on remote radio modem This mode makes compatible the different modems of the ARM range with the ARM-SE. If the mode of operation of these is Modbus Slave, it is possible to interrogate them remotely and thus access all their features. -
Page 37: Settings

- Page 39 Exceptions are returned by the server to the client when the request did not reach its target or when the target did not respond before a certain timeout. The ModBus TCP server on the ARM-SE as well as the ModBus RTU targets emit various types of exceptions to identify the source of the problem.

Page 40: Firmware Update
6. Firmware update In order to keep the ARM-SE firmware up to date, the modems include a "BootLoader" program that allows you to reinstall the main program. This reinstallation is done via the modem's Ethernet connection using the ENC_loader utility provided with the update package. Allow outgoing connections to your Firewall or disable it. - Page 41 7. De-validate the conditions of step 1 and restart the modem by clicking on "Reset LIA". Remark When a modem is updated, it automatically returns to the factory configuration. It is then necessary to re-parameterize it. ATIM_ARM-SE_UG_EN_V2.5...
