Installation procedure Installation procedure The following is a suggested installation procedure for installing CARDIO and its peripheral items. We assume that installers have a good knowledge of security system and their equipments, heating/cooling systems and lighting controls equipments. ATTENTION!: All wiring must comply with local and national electrical codes and ordinances of the country to which the system is being installed.
Installation procedure PRIOR TO THE INSTALLATION Perform complete analysis needs each main functions (security, temperature, heating/cooling and lighting control); Read carefully and keep close to you the technical notice and instruction sheet of all products to be installed with the system; Set up a complete and detailed wiring layout;...
Installation procedure 1- Security equipment installation 1) Select alarm detectors and sensors according to needs and location. 2) Check correct location of all security equipment and install them. 3) Wire all security devices to the CARDIO controller (do not make connection yet). 4) Installation and connection of doorbell and siren.
Installation procedure 5- X-10 compatible module installation (if any) 1) Check loads to be controlled (type, power) and their respective specifications 2) Codes and install all X-10 modules. 3) Local testing of each module (toggle switch on module (ON/OFF/DIM)) NOTE: Test each module from the very same outlet as the TW-523 using an X-10 compatible remote control.
Advance configuration Advance configuration The installer (advanced user) code gives access to a broader array of configuring data. For configuring functions available to any user, please refer to the CARDIO 2é User’s Guide. See below all functions available to the installer (advanced user) to configure the system. The first pages of functions are also available to entry level users, albeit sometimes in a shorter form (codes, delays) The advanced user menu is also available from the programming screen after entering the installer code (the default installer code is 00000)
Advance configuration Zones types CARDIO offers 16 programmable security inputs of 9 different types. • Delay: relevant to detectors associated with an entry delay (door, etc.) • Instant/delay (follower): relevant to detectors which can be triggered after a delay. For instance, the front door has a contact and a motion detector has been installed in the lobby and set up with “instant delay”.
Advance configuration Delay Enter the maximum loop opening delay before an alarm is triggered. Values can run from 50 ms to 990 ms with increments of 10 ms. • SOS hold up(yes/no): whether the siren is activated with the SOS hold up button •...
Advance configuration • Daylight saving (yes/no): to let the system automatically switch from Standard time to Daylight saving time (and reverse) at appropriate dates. • Longitude (+/- 0..180): the distance east (-) or west (+) measured in degrees/minutes from the meridian of Greenwich.
Advance configuration Monitoring • Client code: up to 2 client codes • Monitoring phone number: up to 2 different phone numbers. • Protocol: 2 protocols to choose from: SESCOA FAST (20pps) for fast transmission or ADEMCO SLOW (10pps) for slow transmission. Format can be either 3/1, 3/2 or 4/1. Zone report.
Advance configuration System rep. Codes. • Restore restore codes are given by the monitoring station for each type of alarm. For other codes and test time, check with the monitoring station. Temperature NOTE : Note that temperature settings below and on the following pages refer to CARDIO’s built-in thermostat only.

Advance configuration • Temperature offset: because of the particular location of the touch panel, the temperature at the thermostat may vary from the average zone temperature. Therefore it is possible to adjust the reading displayed on screen (or on the phone). The maximum temperature compensation is +/- 9.9 degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Advance configuration Central heating system Usually made up of a furnace and a two-wire thermostat (R and W). Installed in a central location, this thermostat controls only one zone. When multiple zones is declared a button named OTHERS appears on each screen. Press successively on this button to have access to desired zones.
Advance configuration HVAC System Made up of two separated items, a furnace and a cooler, controlled by a single thermostat with two set points. Four modes of operation (none, heating only, cooling only and automatic) and fan control (automatic, manual). CARDIO in the HVAC settings can substitute this thermostat. ATTENTION!: its is impossible to have both heating and cooling at the same time in the HVAC mode.
Advance configuration HVAC setback Usually made up of two separate items: a heating system (furnace, baseboard heaters, etc.) and a cooling system. Two types of control: heating and cooling with fan control when available. The main difference between HVAC/setback and HVAC is that in the case of HVAC, heating and cooling modes are integrated into one system while in the case of HVAC/setback, heating and cooling modes are two separate entities.
Advance configuration Heating setback This is the type of control when the heating system is made of baseboard heaters only. Each zone (room) has its own basic thermostat which will be set manually to the normal temperature (comfort temperature) according to the user’s needs. CARDIO will take control of all zones when in economic mode only and the temperature will be the one entered in the “desired temperature”...
1. Push the (RESET) button once. The system will reboot and enter a 30 second delay. Go to the Secant touch screen during this 30 second delay. 2. At the end of the 30 second delay, a countdown appears on the screen to allow the entry into diagnostic mode.
This chapter addresses troubleshooting of the CARDIO system. Please note that even if CARDIO is connected to products made by other manufacturers, we do not offer support for the non-SECANT products. Therefore, always keep instructions and specifications of non-SECANT products for future reference and contact their respective manufacturer for support.
Troubleshooting Bus (SNet) protection To protect the central controller against noise, lightning and shorts that may occur on the bus. POLYSWITCH* RT1 and RT2 along with TRANZORB* TZ1 and TZ2 will limit the energy at the bus input. Relay protection All relay contacts are protected by a 35V RMS metal Oxide varistor.
Troubleshooting Telephone No tone from local (inside) telephone • Check if all cables are correctly connected: CARDIO’s telephone cable connected into the digital communicator module RJ31X; the home’s telephone line into the RJ31X; the wire of the internal telephone network into the RJ31X. •...
Troubleshooting Type of telephone CARDIO can communicate with Touch-Tone telephones only. Central monitoring station When activating the account: 1. check the “Monitoring” menu in Advance configuration if the monitoring station’s telephone number has been entered as well as the protocol used and the customer’s code; 2.
Troubleshooting X-10 No control from screen We take for granted that all local tests described in the installation process have been achieved i.e.: 1. all modules can be controlled successfully from a X-10- compatible remote control plugged in the very same outlet as the TW-523. 2.
Troubleshooting Electronic transformers Very often, halogen lights are sold with a built-in electronic transformer. The electronic circuit of this transformer is no less than a short circuit for X-10 commands. Installing such a device will create many problems: 1. the module controlling this light will not always receive X-10 commands; 2.
Troubleshooting TEMPERATURE CONTROL (from CARDIO’s thermostat only) Nothing works Baseboard heaters 1. check breaker associated with baseboard heaters; 2. the transformer of heating relays (reading should be 24VAC); 3. check wiring; 4. check relays. Central heating 1. check breakers associated with the heating system; 2.
Troubleshooting Low temperature thermostat We strongly suggest that you install one thermostat used for low temperature detection (around 46 F or 8 C). Connect this thermostat in parallel with the heating relay or auxiliary heating relay. Therefore, should CARDIO be defective, there will be another security device. Only one sub-system does not work (heating or cooling or fan) 1.
Troubleshooting Security Door/window contacts not changing status While you consecutively open and close a contact, the system do not change status: 1. make sure that an end-of-line resistance has been connected. With an ohmmeter, check this particular security wire: resistance should be nil when the contact is closed and infinite when it is open.
Troubleshooting General specifications of detectors that can be connected to CARDIO • voltage: between 12 and 14 Volt DC • maximal available current for all detectors should not exceed 500 mA. For more current needs, add an independent power supply. •...
Troubleshooting SECANT PERIPHERICAL PRODUCTS AND BUS. Touch screen(s) and key reader(s) None of the products is functioning 1. bad connection of the BUS at the central controller or at the first item; 2. bus cable cut between the central controller and the first item.
Troubleshooting How to install the bus (refer to bus installation schematic) 1. wire the bus with the suggested cable; 2. leave a 10”loop out of the wall at each location 3. cut the loop 4. Skin all 8 wires (2x4) and join each color-like wires Bus checking 1.
Troubleshooting LED status There are two LEDs on the CARDIO central controller printed circuit board (inside the metal box). 1) The LED in the middle of the main board is the “Status LED”. 2) The LED in the upper right corner is the “Over current LED” 1) STATUS LED This LED blinks in normal operating state.
