  • Page 9: Description And Installation

    With a TEK 1 it is possible to monitor a device that only has IR control. For projectors that do report these timers, the TEK 1 reports both its own and the projector’s timers. The filter timer for the TEK 1 is called Maintenance timer.

    1. 24 volt connection: Use this power connection to power another device like an occupancy sensor or power the TEK 1 from another power source, like a power pack for an occupancy sensor. 2. Relay 1 and 2: 2 Amp Isolated contact closer. Use these relays for devices that require isolation, such as AC devices, or may draw larger currents.

  • Page 11: Applications

    TekWizard Template: TEKVOX – Standard In a standard configuration a TEK 1 is used to control and monitor a video projector or large screen display. The TEK 1 is installed in the ceiling and an RS-232 cable with a security wire is connected between the TEK 1 and projector.

    Other devices like the room’s PC and monitor can also be protected by TEK 1. This is accomplished by looping a security wire from one of the unused Logic Inputs on the TEK 1, through the PC and monitor, and then back to ground on the TEK 1. For someone to remove any of these monitored items they must first cut the security wire.

    When motion is detected, the occupancy detector triggers a high event on Input 2 of the TEK 1. Once motion is no longer detected, the occupancy detector triggers a low event on Input 2 of the TEK 1.
  • Page 14 TEK 1 the Digital Output is in an open state, causing the pull-up resistor to supply current to turn on the power pack. Once the TEK 1 is running, a command is issued to turn on this output causing the power pack to go off.

  • Page 15: Occupancy Detection, Lighting Control And Miniature Alarm

    Occupancy Detection, Lighting Control and Miniature Alarm TekWizard Template: TEKVOX – Occupancy2 As mentioned above the TEK 1 has the ability to operate with an occupancy detector. Since there is an extra logic output, a miniature alarm can be added to the TEK 1.

  • Page 16: Occupancy Detection, Lighting And Screen Control

    As mentioned above the TEK 1 has the ability to operate with an occupancy detector. Since there are two relays on the TEK 1, it is possible to control a projection screen or raise and lower a projector lift. Features •...

  • Page 17: Ir Control

    By adding a power current sensor at the display device the TEK 1 can determine if the device is powered on. Once the TEK 1 knows the device is on, the internal lamp and maintenance timers within the TEK 1 are operable.

  • Page 18: Installation

    The TEK 1 is designed with permanent side flanges and only requires #6 wood or metal screws. The TEK 1 should not be mounted on a monitored device and should not be easily visible. If the TEK 1 is stolen with the device, it cannot send an Email or set an alarm. Also the power supply should not be easily disconnected along with the projector.

  • Page 19: Configuring The Tek 1

    Configuring the TEK 1 For most installations all that is required is to connect a TEK 1 to the campus network is connect a live network cable and apply power. A DHCP server on the camps network automatically assign’s an IP address.

    TekManager. Since a control system cannot perform auto-discovery to locate a TEK 1, it is necessary to configure the TEK 1 using a static IP address or at least make certain that the IP address cannot change. There are several benefits to communicating with the TEK 1 instead of the display device.
