System Overview
The iConnect Control System is a full-featured wireless control system that is expected to provide a solution to the needs of most residential installations. This system has been developed based upon a design concept geared towards easy installation and use. With this in mind, the user interface is based on a simple, menu-driven model that suits the essential requirements of both the user and installer alike. You can program the iConnect Control System on-site using the on-board LCD keypad or PC, or off-site via a PC using local programming option of the Remote Programmer.
The system offers GPRS and Ethernet network connectivity, providing high-speed central station reporting via a GPRS or
Ethernet interface. The Electronics Line Application Server (ELAS) handles all communication between the system, service providers and web users enabling monitoring and control to be performed via the Web. Backup communication is carried out by Communication module via PSTN or GSM.
Central station communication and remote parameters programming and maintenance employ Ethernet, GPRS, GSM or standard PSTN communication. SMS messaging provides an innovative method used for both central station and Follow-
Me user monitoring. Additionally, SMS messages can be sent to the Control System enabling the user to send commands to the system from anywhere on the planet.
The Control System’s home automation capabilities provide a wealth of features. The Home Automation module interfaces with X10 units over the powerline network and grants the user appliance control via a number of different media.

System Installation
The following chapter explains how to install the system and provides guidelines and tips on how to optimize the installation. It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the various circuit boards that make up the system – see p. 4, 1.4 Hardware Layout.
2.1.
Pre-Installation Planning
Before starting the installation procedure, it is worthwhile to draw a rough sketch of the building and determine the required position for the Control System and each wireless device.
When deciding on the placement for installation, consider the following:
Mount the Control System in a location with easy access to telephone and power connections.
Mount the Control System in a location that provides easy connection to the router.
For best performance of the GPRS Communication module, the Control System should be mounted in a position where the GSM signal is strong.
Refer to the following section in order to choose the optimal location for wireless devices in relation to the Control System.
2.1.1.
Wireless Installation Guidelines
In order to optimize wireless communication, consider the following guidelines:
Whenever possible, mount the Control System centrally in relation to wireless sensors.
Avoid installation in close proximity to sources of high noise or radio frequency interference. For example, metal air conditioner/heater ducts and circuit breaker boxes.
Minimize the distance between the Control System and transmitters.
Minimize the number of obstacles between the Control System and transmitters.
Figure 2-1: Minimizing Obstacles
Metal based construction materials, such as steel reinforced concrete walls, reduce the range of radio transmissions.
Figure 2-2: Considering Construction Materials
The reduction of the RF signals’ strength is directly proportional to the thickness of the obstacle, assuming that the obstacles are of identical material.
iConnect Installation Manual 9

Arming and Disarming – Unpartitioned Systems
The following section explains how to arm and disarm the Control System using the front panel keypad, hardwire LCD keypad, and EL-2724 Wireless Terminal. iConnect Control System allows partitioning of your home. For Partitioned system arming and disarming, see p. 24,
3.11 Arming/Disarming – Partitioned Systems.
3.10.1.
Arming
If partitioning is disabled, you have three arming modes available: full, part, and perimeter. Figure 3-5 illustrates the three arming modes. In each diagram, the protected area is shaded.
Full Armed
Figure 3-5: Arming Modes
Part Armed Perimeter Armed
The arming options are entirely flexible. You can program each sensor to be included in any combination of the three arming modes – see p. 45, 7.3.2 Arm Set. Additionally, each arming mode has a separate exit and entry delay.
Below you can see another, more complicated example of how can the premises be divided. In this example, the garage is included in full + part + perimeter arming, the house perimeter zones are included in full + perimeter arming, and the house interior zones, in full arming only. So, part arming allows the user to arm the garage, perimeter arming is used to secure the house perimeter at nights, and the full arming is used when leaving the house. Figure 3-6 illustrates this example. In each diagram, the protected area is shaded.

If One-Key Arming is disabled, enter your user code.
Note: It is not possible to activate Full and Part arming modes simultaneously. It is necessary to disarm first when changing from one arming mode to another arming mode.
The exit delays of the two arming modes are entirely independent. The moment an arming mode is activated, its exit delay begins to count down. The entry delay depends on which sensor was tripped first. For example, if the sensor is included in Full arming, the entry delay for Full arming counts down – see p. 45, 7.3.2 Arm Set. If the sensor is included in both activated arming modes, the entry delay for Perimeter arming counts down.
Note: If, due to open zones, the system is not ready to activate the second arming mode then both arming methods are canceled. In this case, check that the relevant entrances are secured and start the entire arming sequence again.
Disarming cancels both active arming modes.
3.10.7.
Disarming
When an entry/exit sensor is tripped, the entry delay counts down; each arming method has its own entry delay.
To disarm the system:

If the system partitioning is enabled, you have, in addition to full arming, two partitions that you can customize according to the client's needs. The arming options are entirely flexible. You can program each sensor to be included in any combination of the three arming modes – see p. 45, 7.3.2 Arm Set. Additionally, each arming mode has a separate exit and entry delay.
Each partition can be armed and disarmed individually and independently of full arming (there may be zones assigned to full arm only). But when you full arm the system, the two partitions are also automatically armed.
For information on partitioning option programming, see p. 64, 9.22 Partition .
For information on assigning peripherals to specific partitions: see:
Zones – p. 45, 7.3.2 Arm Set;
Keyfobs – p. 49, 7.4.3 Partition Set.
Smartkeys – p. 52, 7.8.2 Partition Set.
Common zones
Our example illustrates a special advantage partitioned systems have, namely the common zones.
A common zone is a zone that belongs to both partitions. An alarm is generated from common zones only if the system has been Fully Armed or both partitions 1 and 2 have been armed.
In the following example one part of the house is assigned to Partition 1, another part to partition 2. The common zone is in the corridor that belongs to both partitions. In each diagram, the protected area is shaded.
Notes: If the only zones open are common zones, the system is still ready to arm.
The common zones are relevant only for the Normal, Entry/Exit and Follower zone types. For this reason, when defining a zone as a Common zone (arm set = 123 or 23) choose zone type Normal,
Entry/Exit, or Follower.
In our example a common zone is placed in the corridor that belongs to both partitions. Only when both users leave and arm their partitions, the common zone is activated and the corridor is protected. When any of the users returns and
24 iConnect Installation Manual
3 Basic System Operation disarms his partition, the corridor is also disarmed in order to give the user access to his room. This is because the common zone is active only when both partitions are armed.

Both partitions armed
Each arming mode has a separate exit and entry delay.
Note: The entry delay timeout started by an Entry/Exit common zone is such as defined for Full Arming.
3.11.2.
Arming Keys
The Arming keys enable you to arm the system using any of the three arming methods: Full, Partition 1, and Partition 2.

3.11.4.
Combination Arming
The system allows you to activate a combination of two arming modes. When one user leaves, he arms his partition (1 or 2). When the second user leaves, he arms the second partition; the commons zones are activated.
Note: If the only zones open are common zones, the system is still ready to arm.
3.11.5.
Disarming
When an entry/exit sensor is tripped, the entry delay counts down; each partition has its own entry delay.
To disarm the system:
Enter a valid user code.
If both partitions are armed, and your user code is assigned to both partitions, the system prompts Select Partition . In this case, press one of the arming keys on the front panel keypad
iConnect Installation Manual 25

(Full for the whole system, Part for partition 1, or Perimeter for partition 2) within 6 seconds. The system/partition is disarmed.
If the user code is assigned to one partition only, or only one partition is armed, this partition is disarmed immediately.
3.12.
Additional Arming Options
3.12.1.
Forced Arming
Forced arming enables you to arm the system when the system is not ready. For example, if a door protected by a magnetic contact is open, you may arm the system on condition that the door will be closed by the end of the Exit delay. If the door is still open after the exit delay expires, an alarm is generated.
Two conditions enable you to perform Forced arming:
Forced arming is enabled – see p. 56, 9.3.1 Forced Arm.

3.12.3.
Remote Arming/Disarming via SMS
You can arm and disarm the system remotely by sending the SMS commands from a cellular phone to the Cellular
Communication Module (GPRS or Ethernet). Additionally, you can check the arm status of the system by sending an
Arm Status request message.
Each SMS command contains the following elements:
SMS Command Descriptor (up to 43 characters of free text)
# (delimiter – separates the descriptor from the actual command)
User Code (4 digits)
Command (120=Disarm all Partitions, 121=Full Arm, 122=Part Arm/Partition 1 Arm, 123=Perimeter
Arm/Partition 2 Arm, 124=Full + Perimeter Arm, 125=Part + Perimeter Arm/Partitions 1 and 2 Arm,
128=Partition 1 Disarm, 129=Partition 2 Disarm, 200=Arm Status)
The following example shows the format of an SMS command for arming the system:
F U L L A R M # 1 2 3 4 1 2 1
Caution : While the SMS Command Descriptor is optional, you must start the SMS command with the # symbol for the system to accept the command.
After an SMS command is executed by the system, you can program the system to return a confirmation message to the sender – see p. 73, 10.7.5 SMS Confirmation.
3.12.4.
Arm Status Reply
On receiving an Arm Status request message, the system returns a status message to the sender. This message includes the system status and the descriptor of the user or the device used to arm/disarm the system.

4.4.
User Codes
The Control System supports up to 32 individual user codes. Each of these codes is four digits long. Most system operations require you to enter a valid user code. The ability to perform an operation is defined by your user code’s authorization level. These authorization levels are pre-defined for each code as explained below.
Notes: Codes 1-29 can be edited only by the Master code.
The Installer code, Guard Code and the Central Station TWA Code can be edited only by the installer.
Code 1: Master Code
The Master code is the highest user authorization level. With the Master code, you can edit all other user codes except the Installer code, the Guard code and the Central Station TWA Code. Additionally, the Master code grants access to the Event Log, the Service menu and Home Automation Schedule programming. The Master code is a "controlled" code. Arming and disarming using this code causes the Control System to notify the central station with an
Arm/Disarm event message * . In partitioned systems, Master Code is always assigned to both partitions.
Caution : The default Master code is 1234. Change this code immediately after installing the system!
Codes 2-19: Controlled Codes*
When you use a controlled user code for arming and disarming, the Control System notifies the central station with an
Arm/Disarm event message.
Codes 20-25: Non-controlled Codes
Non-controlled codes do not cause the Control System to send Arm/Disarm event messages to the central station. The
Control System sends a Disarm message only if you use this code to disarm the system after an alarm occurrence.
Codes 26-27: Limited Codes
A Limited code enables the user to issue a code that is valid for one day only. This code automatically expires 24 hours after it has been programmed. These codes are "controlled" in that their use for Arm/Disarm is notified to the central station.
* Only if arm/disarm reporting is enabled during System Programming
iConnect Installation Manual 29

Code 28: Duress Code
The Duress code is designed for situations where the user is being forced to operate the system. This user code grants access to the selected operation, while sending a Duress event message to the central station.
Code 29: Telecontrol Code
The Telecontrol code is designed to enable the user to perform a number of tasks via their telephone using DTMF commands. Using this code, the user can call their system to arm and disarm, turn on and off Home automation units, activate and deactivate the PGM output, cancel siren activation or establish Two-Way Audio communication. In partitioned systems, Telecontrol Code is always assigned to both partitions same as Master Code.
Code 30: Central Station TWA Code
The Central Station TWA code is designed to enable the central station operator to establish Two-Way Audio communication with the Control System after an alarm. This code is valid for use for the first ten minutes after an alarm has occurred. This code can only be used for this specific purpose and does not grant access to any additional system functions such as disarming.
Code 31: Guard Code
Guard Code is an option that allows a security guard to check the premises in case of an alarm.
Code 32: Installer Code
The Installer code grants access to the Programming menu and the Service menu. Additionally, this code enables you to view and clear the Event Log.

Telecontrol and Two-Way Audio
The iConnect Control System offers a range of Telecontrol features that provide remote access via the telephone. These features include Two-Way Audio, remote arming/disarming and cancel siren activation. This chapter explains these features and their operating procedures.
Telecontrol features can be separated into two fundamental groups; incoming and outgoing calls. These groups differ in their associated features.
5.1.
Incoming Calls
The Control System can receive incoming calls from either the user or central station operator. Users may use this feature as a convenient way of contacting their family, operating their system or to check their home when they are away. Additionally, the monitoring service can contact the user in the event of an emergency or use this feature for listen-in alarm verification.
For any of the incoming Telecontrol features to function, Telecontrol must be enabled in the Communication Options section of the Programming menu – see p. 72, 10.6.10 Incoming Calls.
5.1.1.
User Code Verification
To prevent unauthorized attempts to connect with the Control System, there are two user codes designed for use with the Telecontrol features. The Telecontrol code enables the user to establish communication with the Control System at any time. Additionally, the Central Station TWA Code is used exclusively for Two-Way Audio alarm verification and is only valid for a ten-minute period following an alarm.
1.
2.
3.
5.1.2.
Incoming Calls via PSTN
In the case of PSTN communication, the Control System often shares a line with regular telephone handsets, an answering machine or a fax machine. It is therefore important that the Control System distinguish between calls so that it knows when to pick up the relevant call. For this purpose the iConnect Control System employs a double call method.
To connect to the Control System using the double call method:
Dial the telephone number of the line connected to the Control System.
Wait for two or three rings and hang-up.
Wait at least five seconds and dial the number again; on the second ring, the Control System picks up and sounds two DTMF tones.
5.1.3.
Incoming Calls via a Cellular Network
The Cellular Communication module has its own individual telephone number and therefore, the double call method is not needed. In this case, the user or central station operator may call the Control System directly.
5.1.4.
Telecontrol Call Procedure
The following procedure explains how to make a Telecontrol call. The conditions and procedure differ when using
PSTN or Cellular Communication. For further information, see the entire section 5.1 Incoming Calls.
To make a Telecontrol call:
1.
Call the Control System either using the double call method (PSTN) or directly (Cellular); when the
Control System picks up, two DTMF tones are sounded.
2.
Enter the Telecontrol code (Code 29) on your telephone within 15 seconds.
Note: Do not enter your user code until you hear the two DTMF tones. Any digits entered before the tones are sounded are disregarded by the system.
3.
A DTMF tone is sounded to indicate that the system is ready to receive commands.
The following DTMF commands are available:
Press "2" for Two-Way Audio.
If the TWA mode is defined as "Simplex" (see p. 72, 10.6.13, TWA Mode.), the audio channel opens in
Listen mode (microphone active/speaker mute). To switch to Speak mode, press " 1 " on your telephone.
To switch back to Listen mode, press " 0 " on your telephone.
Note: During the TWA session, you can adjust the speaker volume using the arrow buttons.

Wireless Devices
7.2.1.
Registering Wireless Devices
For the system to recognize individual devices, each device must be registered to the system. For example, if the device is a wireless transmitter, registration enables the system to identify the source of a received transmission.
Each device has an individual encrypted ID code. Registering the device to the system familiarizes the system with this code.
Note: It is not necessary to register hardwire sensors connected to Zone 33 or wired zones 1 – 8 connected to
Wired Zone Module.
To register a device to the system:
1.
From the Programming menu, select Devices [91].
2.
3.
Select the type of transmitter you want to register. For example, if you want to register a wireless sensor to a zone, select Zones.
Select the specific device you want to register (for example, Zone 4); the system initiates Registration mode. During Registration mode, the system waits for two transmissions from the device.
Note: If a device has already been registered at the selected location, the system will not initiate Registration mode. If the device has already been registered at another location, attempts to register it are ignored by the system. Zones 1-32 are intended for wireless detectors by default, unless the zones 1 to 8 are programmed as wired zones connected to the Wired Zone Module.
4.
Register the device – refer to each device’s installation instructions in Appendix B for further details.

7.2.2.
Deleting Wireless Devices
When you want to remove a device from the system, you have to delete the device. It is important to delete unused devices for two reasons. Firstly, you have to delete a device before you can register a new transmitter in its place.
Secondly, if the device is a wireless sensor, it is important to delete the device so that the system will not react to the transmitter’s failure to send supervision signals.
To delete a device:
1.
From the Programming menu, select Devices, [91].
2.
Select the type of wireless device you want to delete.
Select the specific device you want to delete.
From the device’s sub-menu, select Delete.
Press to confirm; the device is deleted.
iConnect Installation Manual 43
7 Devices
7.2.3.
Supervision Time
The sensors in Electronics Line 3000’s supervised wireless range send a supervision signal approximately 20 minutes after its last transmission. If the system does not receive supervision signals from a specific transmitter, the transmitter is regarded as inactive.
The amount of time after which a transmitter is considered inactive is called the Supervision Time. There is a separate supervision time for general transmitters and devices that are registered to Fire zones.
To program the Supervision Time for general transmitters:
1.
From the Programming menu, select Devices, Superv. Time, General [9161].
2.
Enter a supervision time between 02:00 and 23:59 hours.
To program the Supervision Time for transmitters registered to Fire zones:
1.
From the Programming menu, select Devices, Superv. Time, Fire [9162].
2.
Enter a supervision time between 02:00 and 23:59 hours.
To meet the requirements of the EN50131 standard, the programmed supervision time must be set to 2 hours.
7.2.4.
Re-Synchronization
Transmissions that are out of synchronization are rejected by the system. For example, it is not possible to arm or disarm the system using a keyfob that is out of synchronization. In the event that a transmitter is out of synchronization, it is possible to re-synchronize the transmitter and restore normal operation.
To re-synchronize transmitters:
From the Programming menu, select Devices, TX Re-synch [917]; a 10-minute time window is opened.
During the 10-minute time window, if a transmission is received that is out of synchronization, the transmitter is re-synchronized.
7.3.
Zones
The iConnect Control System supports Electronics Line 3000’s supervised wireless range of transmitters that includes various PIR detectors, magnetic contacts and smoke detectors. All these transmitters send supervision signals to the
Control System's receiver in order to indicate that the transmitter is functional.
Control System includes 33 security zones. Zones 1-32 are intended for wireless detectors by default, unless the zones 1 to 8 are programmed as wired zones connected to the Wired Zone Module -- see p. 5, 1.4.2 Wired Zone Module. Only one sensor can be registered to each zone.
Zone 33 is an on-board hardwire zone. This zone is programmed in the same way as the wireless zones with the exception of registration and deletion.
This section explains the programming exclusive to detectors. For information on registration, descriptor editing, and deletion, see p. 43, 7.1, 7.2.1, 7.2.2. The zone menu is displayed according to the zone type (see below).
Most of the programming options are identical for hardwire and wireless zones with the following exceptions:

Vocal Message Dialer
The Vocal Message Dialer is a feature that calls the user’s telephone number when specific events occur and plays prerecorded messages. These calls are made after the system has reported the events to the central station. Additionally, in the event of an alarm, the user is able to establish a Two-Way Audio connection on receiving the vocal message in order to check the premises.
The system supports up to five Voice Report accounts. Each account has its own telephone number, communication interface and Two-Way Audio options.
The types of event that are reported using the Vocal Message Dialer feature are determined in VM Event Options – see p. 75, 10.10 Vocal Message Dialer Event Options. If one of these events occurs, the Control System dials the phone numbers of the Voice Report Account.
The sequence for a vocal message call is as follows:
1.
An event occurs and the Control System calls the telephone number of the first Voice Report Account chosen.
2.
3.
When the user answers the call, the Home ID message and the relevant event message are played.
The user presses 1 on their telephone; if there are additional events to report the next message is played. Otherwise, "No Further Messages" is announced.

PC to Control System Connection Methods
You can connect to the Control System from a PC using one of three methods:
Direct Call: The RP calls the site, the system picks up and RP communication is established.
68 iConnect Installation Manual
10 Communications
Callback: The RP calls the site, the system picks up then hangs up. The system then calls the Callback telephone number to establish a connection.
Serial Connection: The RP connects directly via the USB port on the communication module (this method requires installation of the Control System USB Driver).
The following programming options relate to the method in which the Remote Programmer software connects with the system.
Callback Telephone Number
RP Callback is a security feature that helps ensure that remote programming is only performed by authorized personnel. When the Remote Programmer contacts the Control System, the Control System hangs up and calls the
Callback telephone number.
To edit the Callback telephone number:
1.
From the Programming menu, select Communications, Remote Prog., Call-Back # [9521].
2.
Enter up to 16 digits. Use the key to enter "*", "#", "," (pause), "T" (switch to DTMF tone dialing), "P"
(switch to pulse dialing) or "+" (international code). Use the key to delete one character at a time.
Press when you have finished editing.
Note: If there is no Callback telephone number programmed, RP Callback is disabled and the system connects to the Remote Programmer software using the "direct call" method.
RP Passcode
The RP passcode is a six-digit code that grants access to remote programming. When establishing an RP connection, the passcode programmed in the RP customer file on the PC must be identical to the system’s RP passcode.

Before you can start programming the system’s Home Automation features, you should be familiar with the basic concept behind X10 automation.
X10 is a protocol that enables you to send commands and other data over regular existing power lines. This means that, using an X10 transmitter (the Control System’s Home Automation module), you can send On/Off commands to X10 receivers (lamp and appliance modules) that are plugged into electricity outlets around the home. From here on, we will refer to these X10 receivers as "HA units".
Each HA unit has two codes that are used for identification. These codes are known as the House code and the Unit code and are usually defined by adjusting the dials that appear on the X10 unit. In Figure 12-1, the HA unit is set to
House A, Unit 3.
Figure 12-1: HA Unit Dials
The Control System supports sixteen HA units on one House code. To ensure that the Home Automation features function correctly, you must abide by the following guidelines.
The House code must be the same on each HA unit.
The House code on the HA units must be identical to the House code programmed in the Control
System’s memory – see p.82, 12.3 House Code.
12.2.
HA Units
The following sections explain the programming options available for HA units.
12.2.1.
Scheduling (not relevant to PGM)
Scheduling allows you to program the Control System to send On/Off commands to an HA unit at specific times. For information on programming the On Time, Off Time and Schedule for each HA unit, see p. 42, 6.4 Scheduling.
12.2.2.
On by Zone
The On by Zone feature allows you to choose two zones that activate the HA unit when triggered. When either one of these zones is triggered, the system sends an On command to the HA unit according to the unit’s programmed Pulse
Time – see p. 82, 12.2.8 Pulse Time. For example, you have a magnetic contact installed above the front door. When the door is opened, the hall light is lit.

Glassbreak Sensor (EL-2606)
The EL-2606 is an intelligent acoustic glassbreak sensor with an incorporated wireless transmitter.
Mounting Considerations
The EL-2606 acoustic sensor is omni-directional, providing 360º coverage. The coverage is measured from the sensor to the point on the glass farthest from the sensor. The sensor can be mounted as close as 1m from the glass.
Figure B- 11: Acoustic Sensor Range Measurement (Plate, Tempered, Laminated And Wired Glass)
Sensor range:
If mounting on the ceiling, the opposite wall or adjoining walls, the maximum range is 6m (20') for plate, tempered, laminated and wired glass.
For armor-coated glass, the maximum range is 3.65m (12').
Minimum recommended glass size:
0.3m x 0.6m (1' X 2')
Glass thickness:
Plate: 2.4mm to 6.4mm (3/32" to 1/4")
Tempered: 3.2mm to 6.4mm (1/8" to 1/4")
Wired: 6.4mm ( 1/4"))
Laminated: 3.2mm to 6.4mm (1/8" to 1/4")
For best detection:
The sensor must always be in direct line of sight of all windows to be protected.
If mounting on the wall, try to install the sensor directly opposite the protected window. If this is not possible, adjoining side walls are also a good location.
If mounting on the ceiling, install the sensor 2-3m (6'-10') into the room.
Avoid installing in rooms with lined, insulating or sound deadening drapes.
Avoid installing in rooms with closed wooden window shutters inside.
Avoid installing in the corners of a room.
The EL-2606 is best suited to rooms with moderate noise.
Caution: The sensor may not consistently detect cracks in the glass, bullets which break through the glass or glass breaking around corners and in other rooms. Glassbreak sensors should always be backed up by interior protection.
For best false alarm immunity:
Locate the sensor at least 1.2m (4') away from noise sources (televisions, speakers, sinks, doors, etc.).
Avoid rooms smaller than 3m x 3m (10' X 10') and rooms with multiple noise sources.
Do not use where white noise, such as air compressor noise, is present (a blast of compressed air may cause a false alarm).
Do not define the zone as 24Hr. It is recommended to register the EL-2606 to a perimeter arming group that arms the perimeter doors and windows of the premises.
Avoid humid rooms – the EL-2606 is not hermetically sealed. Excess moisture can eventually cause a short circuit and a false alarm.

Areas to avoid:
• Glass airlocks and glass vestibule areas
• Noisy kitchens
• Residential car garages
• Small bathrooms
• Other small acoustically live rooms

Testing Procedures.
Knock out the required mounting holes on the back cover.
Mount the unit to the wall using the mounting screws provided.
Write the number of the zone on the sticker provided and affix the sticker inside the front cover for future reference.
Close the front cover making sure that it snaps shut.
Testing Procedure
The Pattern Recognition Technology™ of the EL-2606 ignores most of the sounds that could cause a false alarm
(including glass-break testers). In order to test the EL-2606, you must set the unit to Test mode. In Test mode, processing of the upper and lower frequencies is disabled. This means that the EL-2606 is only listening for midrange frequencies reproduced by the glassbreak tester. It’s these mid-range frequencies that determine the sensor’s range.
Note: In Normal mode, the tester will not activate the sensor unless held directly over the sensor.
iConnect Installation Manual 101
Appendix B: Transmitter Installation
Figure B- 13: Testing the EL-2606
Test the sensor using the Electronics Line GBS7 or Sentrol 5709C hand-held tester.
1.
If using the 5709C tester, set the tester to tempered glass. The 5709C tester has a different setting for each type of glass. The tester should always be set for tempered or laminated glass (either is correct and both have the same range) unless the installer is certain that all the glass to be protected is plate glass.
2.
Hold the tester speaker directly on top of the sensor and activate the tester; the sensor generates an alarm and then enters test mode for one minute. When in test mode, the LED on the sensor flashes continuously. You can extend the test mode time by firing the tester at the sensor at least once a minute.
Note: Each time the sensor generates an alarm, it also goes into Test mode for one minute.
3.
Hold the tester near the surface of the glass and aim the tester at the EL-2606. If drapes or blinds are present, test with the hand-held tester behind the closed drapes or blinds.
4.
Hold down the test button. When the LED on the sensor goes solid momentarily, the glass is within detection range.
5.
6.
If the LED does not go solid, but simply continues flashing, re-position the sensor closer to the protected windows and retest. This may require adding additional sensors in order to achieve adequate coverage. It is very rare that the sensor will not activate within its stated range of coverage. In this case check the battery in the hand-held tester. A new tester battery is likely to restore the range.
Test mode automatically terminates approximately one minute after the last activation of the handheld tester.
Caution : Room acoustics can artificially extend the range of a glassbreak sensor. The specified range of the
EL-2606 has been established for worst-case conditions. While the sensor is likely to function at the extended range, it may miss a minimum output break or room acoustics may be changed at some future time bringing sensor range back into normal 6m (20') conditions. Do not exceed the rated range of the sensor regardless of what the tester shows!
Hand Clap Test
The Hand Clap test enables you to test the EL-2606 while in Normal mode. This test checks the sensors power supply, microphone and circuit board.
To perform a Hand Clap test:
Clap your hands loudly under the sensor; the LED flashes twice but an alarm is not generated.

Smoke Detector (EL-2630EN)
The EL-2603EN is a brand-name smoke alarm and transmitter designed for use with Electronics Line 3000’s supervised wireless range of receivers.
Read This First
A smoke alarm is an early warning device. Used correctly it can give the occupants of the house valuable extra time to escape. When the alarm sounds, immediately evacuate the premises before beginning any investigation.
A smoke alarm does not prevent fires.
Proper protection usually requires more than one smoke alarm.
Test weekly.
Considerations for Locating the Smoke Alarm
Sufficient smoke must enter the smoke alarm before it will respond. The smoke alarm needs to be within 10 paces
(7.5m) of the fire to respond quickly. The smoke alarms need to be in positions where they can be heard throughout the
iConnect Installation Manual 103
Appendix B: Transmitter Installation home, so they can wake the occupants in time for them to escape. A single smoke alarm will provide some protection if it is properly installed, but most homes will require two or more to ensure that a reliable early warning is given. For recommended protection, you should put individual smoke alarms in all the rooms (apart from the kitchen, where heat alarms should be used) where fire is most likely to break out.
The smoke alarm should be located between the sleeping area and the most likely sources of fire (living room or kitchen for example). But it should not be more than 10 paces (7.5m) from the door to any room where a fire might start and block the occupants escape from the house.
Single-Story Dwellings
If the home is on one level (a bungalow or mobile home for example) you should put the smoke alarm in a corridor or hallway between the sleeping and living areas – see Figure B- 15. Place it as near to the living area as possible, but make sure you can hear it loudly enough to wake those in the bedroom.
If the premises are very large and the corridor or hallway is more than say 20 paces (15m) long, one smoke alarm will not be sufficient. This is because no matter where it is located it will be more than 7.5m from potential fires.
The recommended locations for installation are shown in Figure B- 15 and Figure B- 16.
Figure B- 15: Single Story Dwelling (above) & Single Story
Dwelling with Separate Sleeping Areas (below)
Figure B- 16: Multi-Story Dwelling
For minimum protection:
On each story
In each sleeping area
Every 7.5 meters of hallways & rooms
Within 3 meters of all bedroom doors
All units interconnected
For recommended protection (additional detectors):
In every room (except bathrooms and kitchens)
In houses with more than one sleeping area, Smoke Alarms should be placed between each sleeping area and the living area – see Figure B- 15.
Multi-Story Dwellings
If the home has more than one floor, at least one alarm should be fitted on each level – see Figure B- 16.
Recommended Protection
Fire authorities recommend you put individual smoke alarms in or near all the rooms where fire is most likely to break out (apart from the locations to avoid, mentioned below). The living room is the most likely place for a fire to start at night, followed by the kitchen and then the dining room. You should also consider putting smoke alarms in any
104 iConnect Installation Manual
Appendix B: Transmitter Installation bedrooms where fires might occur, for instance, where there is an electrical appliance such as an electric blanket or heater, or where the occupant is a smoker.
You could also consider putting smoke alarms in any rooms where the occupant is unable to respond very well to a fire starting in the room, such as an elderly or sick person or a very young child.
Checking that Smoke Alarms Can Be Heard
With the smoke alarms sounding in their intended locations, check you are able to hear it in each bedroom with the door closed, above the sound of audio/TV systems. The audio/TV systems should be set to a reasonably loud conversation level. If you can’t hear it over the sound of the radio, the chances are that it wouldn’t wake the occupants.
Positioning the Smoke Alarm
Mounting on a Ceiling
Hot smoke rises and spreads out, so a central ceiling position is the recommended location. The air is “dead” and does not move in corners, therefore Smoke Alarms must be mounted away from corners. Place the unit at least 0.30m from any light fitting or decorative object which might obstruct smoke entering the Smoke Alarm. Keep at least 0.30m away from walls and corners – see Figure B- 17.
Mounting on a Wall
When a ceiling position is not possible (for example on a ceiling having exposed beams or joists, or built-in radiant heating) put the top edge of the smoke alarm between 0.15m and 0.30m below the ceiling. Keep at least 0.30m from corners – see Figure B- 17.
Mounting on a Sloping Ceiling
In areas with sloping or peaked ceilings install the Smoke Alarm 0.90m from the highest point measured horizontally, because “dead air” at the apex may prevent smoke from reaching the unit – see Figure B- 17.
Figure B- 17: Smoke Alarm Positioning on Ceilings or Walls (left) & on Sloping Ceilings (right)
Locations to Avoid
Do not place the smoke alarm in any of the following areas:
Bathrooms, kitchen, shower rooms, garages or other rooms where the smoke alarm may be triggered by steam, condensation, normal smoke or fumes.
Attics or other places where extremes of temperature may occur (below 4°C or above 40°C).
Near a decorative object, door, light fitting, window molding etc., that may prevent smoke from entering the smoke alarm.
Surfaces that are normally warmer or colder than the rest of the room (for example attic hatches, noninsulated exterior walls etc). Temperature differences might stop smoke from reaching the unit.
Next to or directly above heaters or air-conditioning vents, windows, wall vents etc. that can change the direction of airflow.
In very high or awkward areas where it may be difficult to reach the alarm for testing or battery replacement.
iConnect Installation Manual 105
Appendix B: Transmitter Installation
Locate unit at least 1.5m away from fluorescent light fittings as electrical “noise” and/or flickering may affect the unit.
Locate away from very dusty or dirty areas as dust build-up in the chamber can make unit too sensitive and prone to alarm. It can also block the insect screen mesh and prevent smoke from entering the chamber.
Do not locate in insect infested areas. Small insects getting in to the chamber can cause intermittent alarms.

Installation
1.
Remove the mounting plate from the Smoke Alarm. If it has been latched release the tamperproof catch with a small screwdriver, as shown in Figure B- 18, and slide the alarm from the mounting plate.
2.
3.
4.
Connect a 9V battery to the battery snaps as shown in Figure B- 19. When the battery is first connected the Alarm may sound for 2-3 seconds and/or the red light may flash quickly for 10 seconds – this is normal.
Set the receiver to Registration mode.
Press the Test button on the smoke alarm as shown in Figure B- 20; make certain that the blue transmission LED is lit momentarily.
5.
Wait for five seconds, then press the Test button again.
Note: Alternatively, the EL-2603EN can be registered to the receiver by manually entering the transmitter's serial number.
6.
Before permanently mounting the unit, test the transmitter from the exact mounting position. To do so, press and hold down the Test button until the alarm sounds and make certain that the alarm is received. If necessary, relocate the smoke alarm to a better position.
7.
8.
9.
Place the base on the ceiling/wall exactly where you want to mount the unit. With a pencil, mark the location of the two screw holes.
Attach the mounting base to the ceiling using the screws and wall anchors provided.
Carefully line up the unit on the base and slide on until it clicks into place.
Testing and Maintaining Smoke Alarms
The smoke alarm is a life saving device and should be regularly checked. Regularly check that the red LED flashes once a minute to show the smoke alarm is powered. Replace the smoke alarm if the flashing stops.
Mounting on a Wall
It is recommended that the smoke alarm be tested at least weekly to be sure the unit is working. When you press the test button it simulates the effect of smoke during a real fire so there is no need to test the alarm with smoke.
Press and hold the Test button until the alarm sounds – see Figure B- 20. The alarm will stop sounding shortly after the button is released.
106 iConnect Installation Manual
Appendix B: Transmitter Installation
Warning Do not test with flame! This can set fire to the alarm and damage the house. It is not recommended to test with smoke as the results can be misleading unless special apparatus is used.
Test/Hush Button
The smoke alarm has a combined test/hush button that allows you to silence the alarm in the event of a false alarm.
If, when the alarm goes off, there is no sign of smoke, heat or noise to indicate that there is a fire, the premises should be evacuated before investigating the cause of the alarm. The premises should be checked carefully in case there is a small fire smouldering somewhere. False alarms can be caused by smoke or fumes, for example cooking fumes being drawn past the smoke alarm by an extractor. . If the cause of the alarm is not clear, it should be assumed that it is due to an actual fire and the dwelling should be evacuated immediately. If there are frequent false alarms, it may be necessary to re-locate the unit away from the source of the fumes.
To silence the alarm in the event of a false alarm:
1.
Press the test/hush button. The alarm will automatically switch to a reduced sensitivity condition. This condition allows unwanted alarms to be silenced for a period of approximately 10 minutes. The red light will flash every 10 seconds (instead of 40 seconds) to let you know the unit has been silenced.
2.
The unit will reset to normal sensitivity at the end of the silenced period. If additional silenced time is required, simply push the test/hush button again.
Figure B- 20: Testing the Smoke Alarm
Cleaning the Smoke Alarm
Clean your Smoke Alarm regularly. Use a soft bristle brush or the brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner to remove dust and cobwebs from the sides and cover slots where the smoke enters. Keep cover closed while cleaning. Do not vacuum or brush inside the smoke alarm.
Warning: Do not paint the smoke alarm!
Other than the maintenance and cleaning described in this leaflet, no other customer servicing of this product is required. Repairs, when needed, must be performed by the manufacturer.
Automatic Self-Test
The smoke chamber automatically tests itself every 40 seconds. If the chamber is degraded it will beep without the red light flashing at the same time. If this happens clean the unit. If the beeping persists and the beep does not coincide with a red light flash, replace the unit.
Dust & Insect Contamination
All Smoke Alarms and particularly the optical (photoelectric) type are prone to dust and insect ingress which can cause false alarms.
The latest design, materials and manufacturing techniques have been used in the construction of our Alarms to minimize the effects of contamination. However it is impossible to completely eliminate the effect of dust and insect contamination, and therefore, to prolong the life of the smoke alarm you must ensure that it is kept clean so that excess dust does not build up. Any insects or cobwebs in the vicinity of the smoke alarm should be promptly removed.
In certain circumstances even with regular cleaning, contamination can build up in the smoke-sensing chamber causing the alarm to sound. If this happens the alarm must be replaced. Contamination is beyond our control, it is totally unpredictable and is considered normal wear and tear. For this reason, contamination is not covered by the guarantee.
iConnect Installation Manual 107
Appendix B: Transmitter Installation
Battery Replacement
When the battery power is low and replacement is necessary, the Alarm will “beep” and the red light will flash at the same time about once per minute. The battery must then be replaced. Replace the battery if the alarm does not sound when the Test Button is pressed. For maximum reliability, replace the battery at least once a year. After replacing the battery, press the test button to check that the alarm is functioning correctly.
End of Life
The entire Smoke Alarm must be replaced if:
(i) The unit is installed for over 10 years (check the replacement year marked on the side of the unit).
(ii) The unit fails to sound the horn loudly when the test button is pressed.
(iii) The unit is giving a short beep every 40 seconds and the red light flashes at the same time for longer than 1 hour. If the unit beeps without the red light flashing at the same time, see Automatic Self-Test above.
Troubleshooting
Alarm Sounds For No Apparent Reason
Check for fumes, steam, etc. from kitchen or bathroom. Paint and other fumes can cause nuisance alarms.
Check for any sign of contamination such as cobwebs or dust and clean the alarm as described on the previous page if necessary.
Press the test/hush button on the unit causing the alarm – this will silence the smoke alarm for 10 minutes.
The Alarm Fails to Sound when the Test Button is Pressed
Check the age of the unit - see the “replace by” label on base of unit.
Check the battery snaps are firmly connected – see Figure B- 20.
Limitations of Smoke Alarms
Smoke alarms have significantly helped to reduce the number of fire fatalities in countries where they are widely installed. However independent authorities have stated that they may be ineffective in some circumstances. There are a number of reasons for this:
Smoke alarms will not work if the batteries are depleted or if they are not connected. Test regularly and replace the entire unit when it fails to operate.
Smoke alarms will not detect fire if sufficient smoke does not reach the alarm. Smoke may be prevented from reaching the Alarm if the fire is too far away, for example, if the fire is on another floor, behind a closed door, in a chimney, in a wall cavity, or if the prevailing air draughts carry the smoke away. Installing smoke alarms on both sides of closed doors and installing more than one smoke alarm as recommended in this leaflet very significantly improve the probability of early detection.
The smoke alarm may not be heard.
A smoke alarm may not wake a person who has taken drugs or alcohol.
Smoke Alarms may not detect every type of fire to give sufficient early warning. They are particularly ineffective with: fires caused by smoking in bed, escaping gas, violent explosions. poor storage of flammable rags and/or liquids, (for example petrol, paint, spirits etc), overloaded electrical circuits, arson, children playing with matches.
Smoke Alarms do not last indefinitely. The manufacturer recommends replacement after 10 years as a precaution.

13.
Knockout the wiring hole in the back cover.
Mount the back cover to the wall using two screws and replace the PCB. Use #
6
x 3/4" countersunk wood screws (ISO 7050 - ST3.5 x 22) or similar countersunk screws so that the screw head will not touch the PCB – see p. 97, Figure B- 8.
Thread the sensor’s cable through the wiring hole.
Connect the sensor’s cable to the terminal block as shown in Figure B- 29 (p. 112).
14.
15.
Replace the PCB inside the back cover making sure that it clicks into place.
Before permanently mounting the sensor, place a wet rag over the terminals (located on the bottom of the sensor).
The EL-2661 transmits an alarm 30 seconds after detecting the presence of water. This 30-second delay verifies that the alarm is caused by a significant amount of water and is designed to prevent false alarms caused by humidity or condensation. Similarly, the EL-2661 sends a restore signal 30 seconds after the sensor’s terminals are dry. When the Tamper switch is open, the 30-second delay is canceled in order to speed up the test procedure. Make certain that the LED is lit during transmissions.
Note: The LED indicator does not function when the Tamper switch is closed.
16.
Fix the sensor to the floor using the two screws, spacers and wall anchors provided. Alternatively, you can fix the sensor to the floor using the double-sided adhesive tape provided – see the following section.

Appendix D: Installing IP Cameras (Relevant to
GPRS/Ethernet & ELAS Configuration)
IP cameras installed on the protected site may be accessed by the user via the Web Application – see p. 119, Appendix
C: Web User Application. For a list of supported IP cameras, please contact your distributor.
Figure D- 1: Typical IP Camera Installation
The following section gives an example installation procedure for one of our supported IP cameras. The exact procedure may vary depending on your router and camera model. For relevant and detailed installation procedure, please refer to the installation manual supplied with the camera and the router.
To enable video monitoring using IP cameras, the following steps are required:
Port forwarding must be configured on the router to allow the user outside access to the IP camera.
An administrator must enter the camera’s IP address and port in the Control System’s record in the
ELAS database.
Port Forwarding
The Broadband Router has an IP address that allows data to be sent and received over the Internet. The IP address is divided into ports. These ports are effectively the path through which the data is sent or received allowing multiple tasks to be performed simultaneously via the router.
When a few IP network devices are connected to the router, to ensure a connection to the correct device you must configure the router’s Port Forwarding options. This allows data that has reached the router (with an external IP address) to reach its required destination on the internal network (i.e. behind the router).
IP Camera Installation
Figure D- 2: Connecting the IP Camera
To install an IP camera:
1.
2.
Connect the camera’s Ethernet port to the router.
Connect the camera to the power supply via the camera’s power jack; the camera waits to automatically receive an internal IP address. When the camera receives an IP address, the camera indicates that it has connected (for example, a green flashing LED – refer to the camera manufacturer’s installation instructions for further details).

Appendix D: Installing IP Cameras (Relevant to GPRS/Ethernet & ELAS Configuration)
Install the software provided with the IP camera on the PC that you are going to use to configure the camera settings.
Use the installation software to search for the IP camera on the LAN, If the search is successful, you will be able to determine the camera’s IP address. Write down the camera’s IP address for reference purposes - you will need the camera’s IP address when configuring the router.
To access the camera’s configuration interface, open your Internet browser, enter the IP address of the camera in the address bar and press Enter.
On the camera’s security settings page, program a user name and password. When the user wants to access the camera from the iConnect Control System Web Application, they need to enter their user name and password for authentication purposes.
Figure D- 3: Example of IP Camera Security Settings Page
7.
On the camera’s network configuration settings page, edit the settings for the ports that the IP camera uses during operation. The number of ports that the camera requires differs according to the camera used.
Figure D- 4: Example of IP Camera Network Settings Page
8.
In most cases, the ports that are required by the IP camera are pre-configured as default. If you are installing one IP camera, you do not usually have to edit these settings (unless there is another network device using the same ports).
However, if you are installing more than one camera, it is necessary to choose different ports for each camera.
Using the router’s configuration interface, edit the port forwarding setup – further information refer to the manufacturer’s instructions supplied with the router. The port forwarding setup allows you to create "rules" that the router uses for port forwarding – for further details see p. 127, Port Forwarding.
128 iConnect Installation Manual
Appendix D: Installing IP Cameras (Relevant to GPRS/Ethernet & ELAS Configuration)
Figure D- 5: Example of Router Port Forwarding Configuration Page
9.
Configure port forwarding rules using the following guidelines:
Create a separate rule for each port that is used by each camera.
In the "Start" and "End" fields (sometimes labeled "Private" and "Public"), enter the same port number in both fields. For example, if the HTTP Port is 8103, enter "8103" in both fields.
Select the Protocol as "Both" (i.e. use both UDP and TCP protocols).
Enter the IP address that was automatically allocated to the IP camera – see step 4 of this procedure.
For further information on how to install an IP camera and configure the router, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions that are supplied with both products.

Appendix F: Zone Types
Appendix F: Zone Types
Normal
A Normal zone is active when the system is armed. This zone generates a Burglary alarm instantly when triggered.
Normal zones are designed for detectors installed inside the protected site or doors/windows that are never used to enter the premises.
Event Group: Burglary
Entry/Exit
When the system is armed, Entry/Exit zones initiate the entry delay when triggered. If the system is not disarmed by the time the entry delay expires, a Burglary alarm is generated. These zones are designed for detectors protecting the entrance to the protected site
Event Group: Burglary
Follower
If an Entry/Exit zone is triggered first, Follower zones do not generate an alarm when triggered during the entry delay.
If the system is not disarmed by the end of the entry delay, the Follower zone generates an alarm. A Follower zone instantly generates an alarm if triggered when the entry delay is not active. These zones are designed for detectors protecting the area in which a keypad has been installed or the area crossed in order to reach the keypad.
Event Group: Burglary
Panic
Panic zones are always active. When a Panic zone is triggered, a Panic alarm is generated. This zone type is designed for panic buttons that may be pressed in a robbery situation. If the Bell option is disabled for Panic zones, in addition to the siren not sounding, all forms of alarm indication from the keypad are also disabled.
Event Group: Burglary
Medical
Medical zones are always active. When triggered, Medical zones generate a Medical alarm. These zones are used typically with panic buttons that may be pressed in the event of a Medical.
Event Group: Medical
Fire
Fire zones are always active. When triggered, Fire zones generate a Fire alarm. These zones are designed for use with smoke detectors and panic buttons that may be pressed in the event of a fire. A Fire zone always activates the siren even if the Bell option is programmed as disabled. Fire alarms sound a pulsating siren to distinguish them from other alarms.
Event Group: Fire
24Hr
24Hr zones are always active. When triggered, 24Hr zones generate a Burglary alarm. These zones are used for applications that require constant protection.
Event Group: Burglary
24Hr-X
The 24Hr-X zone is a future option that is not available in the current firmware.
Event Group: Not applicable
iConnect Installation Manual 133
Appendix F: Zone Types
Gas
Gas zones are always active. In the event of a gas leak, these zones generate a Gas alarm. Gas zones are typically used with methane/propane/butane or carbon monoxide gas detectors. Gas alarms sound a distinctive siren pattern to easily distinguish them from other alarms. A gas alarm causes the siren to sound until the alarm is restored; the siren cut-off does not apply to gas alarms.
Event Group: Fire
Flood
Flood zones are always active. When triggered, Flood zones generate a Water alarm. These zones are designed for use with EL-2661 flood sensors.
Event Group: Burglary
Environmental
Environmental zones are always active. When triggered, these zones generate an Environmental alarm. These zones are designed for applications that monitor environmental conditions such as temperature or humidity. If the Bell option is enabled for Environmental zones, the system sounds trouble tones from the keypad. These tones are sounded until the user presses on their keypad. Environmental alarms are not affected by the expiry of the siren cut-off.
Event Group: Burglary
No Motion
No Motion zones are used to monitor the activity of disabled or elderly people. If a No Motion zone has not been triggered within a pre-defined period of time (0 to 72 hours), a No Motion event message is sent to the central station.
Event Group: Medical
Not Used
This zone type disables the sensor output. All alarm transmissions from the sensor are ignored though the sensor may still be used to activate HA units in Home Automation applications.
Event Group: Not applicable
