DC Charge OUTPUTS INPUTS A.P. TAMPER 1 2 3 2 1 +12V 0V The power 12V continues to be supplied by an uninterruptible power supply with limited power. Transistor output n 1 to indicate a failure of the supervision of a siren. Factory setting : - Disappearance of 0V in case of supervision failure Transistor output n 2 to indicate a failure of sirens low battery Factory setting : - Disappearance of 0V in case of sirens batteries failure Transistor output n.º 3 to indicate a failure of PILOTE RF batteries Factory setting : - Disappearance of 0V in case of PILOTE RF batteries failure Input of command configurable Factory setting : - Signalling Arm / Disarm - Positive polarity - Audible and light signalling for the starting at the disappearance for the blocking signal (12V) Input of sirens blocking configurable Factory setting : - Triggering of all the sirens - Positive polarity - Triggering at the disappearance of the blocking signal (12V) The tamper protection of the system includes the opening or the removal of the PILOTE RF and of the associated sirens. - 17 -
4.2. Connection to the power supply «DC charge» The power of the PILOTE RF must be supplied by a 12VDC uninterruptible power limited in direct current. The PILOTE RF is protected against the polarity inversion. If the device which commands the inputs of the PILOTE RF has a different power supply of this one, it is imperative to link the 0V of the different power supplies together. 4.3. Connection of the «OUTPUTS 1 2 3» The PILOTE RF has three outputs with low power switching. Switching means: a 0V appears on the output when it is activated. The outputs polarity can be adjusted in appear (APP 0V) or disappear (DISAP 0V) Ex: In APP 0V (appear with 0V), in case of supervision failure, the output OUT1 switch a 0V (factory setting). The switching power of these outputs is limited to 50mA, enough to drive a relay, a LED, or an input of the control panel. Use imperatively a diode damper type 1N400X if the relay does not provide one internally. 4.4. Connection of the «INPUTS» The PILOTE RF has two trigger commands: BLSIR and CMD. These 2 inputs react in appear or disappear of their command signal: a loop connected to 0V (negative polarity) or a positive voltage of 2 to 15V (positive polarity). By default, the inputs of the PILOTE RF are programmed to be driven by a loop connected to 12V (positive polarity). The PILOTE RF can also react with the disappearance of a loop connected to 0V (negative polarity). Each input can be programmed independently in polarity positive or negative, and in appear or disappear. In case of using a normally open loop, it is necessary to set them in appear of signal ( 5.4.1). The two inputs are configurable and allow different operation mode of the PILOTE RF and of the sirens ( 5.4.2). By default, the input BL SIR is set in positive polarity and in disappear and allows the triggering of all the sirens (internal and external). By default, the input CMD is set in positive polarity and in disappear and allows the signalling Arm / Disarm of the system with the audible and/or light signalling of the sirens (open loop = ARM, closed loop = DISARM). By default, the audible signalling for the Arm / Disarm is deactivated for the SIRYNX RF and SIRUS RF. To activate the audible signalling, it is necessary to put the dipswitch 2 on position ON on the sirens ( 1.2.2 & 1.2.3). - 18 -

Connection of the tamper protection The auto-protection of the system is supplied by a relay normally closed with a breaking power of 12V / 2A. The output of the auto-protection AP TAMPER must be wired in series with the autoprotection loop of the control panel. - 19 -
4.6. Failures signalling An orange LED located above the display notifies the user of any malfunctions of the PILOTE RF. Ex: triggering of the sirens, low battery, failure of the tamper protection. The registration of this failures information in the display allows identifying and solving problems. In case of power cut, the PILOTE RF batteries will take over. The display will turn off and the LED will stop flashing, whatever the failure, to preserve the autonomy of the PILOTE RF. The information «MEM» indicates that the failure has disappeared and that the information is stored in the PILOTE RF. The information «FAIL» indicates that the failure is still present. Upon exiting the programming mode, the PILOTE RF displays the failures in progress. Examples of failures messages: Display PILOTE RF SIR N 01 MISSING Explanation The siren N 01 is not visible by the PILOTE RF. SIR N 01 SVS MEM SIR N 01 TAMPER The siren N 01 caused a lack of supervision but works again. MEM indicates that the PILOTE RF has memorized a supervision failure.

5.4.5. Test of the radio link «5 :SIGNAL STRENGTH» This menu allows checking, during the installation, the strength of the radio signal, siren by siren or the entire system in general. The strength of the radio signal of each siren is materialized by a level indicator displaying in real time the link status. During the radio link, the signal strength of the PILOTE RF is strongly attenuated to keep a safety margin. 5 : SIGNAL STRENGTH SIREN N 01? WAIT IN PROGRESS N 01 OK SIREN N XX? SIRENS ALL OK ALL SIRENS? 2 minutes <<<BACK Tests results by siren «SIR N XX» N 01 OK N 01 FAILURE N 01 FAILURE N 01 OK From 1 to 8 fixed squares: The signal strength of the siren N XX is good. The first square of the level indicator flashes: The concerned siren continues to interact with the PILOTE RF, but at a too low level. THE INSTALLATION IS FORBIDDEN There is no more square in the level indicator: there is no communication between the siren and the PILOTE RF. THE INSTALLATION IS FORBIDDEN Tests results for the installation «ALL SIRENS» SIRENS ALL OK The general signal strength of all the installed elements is good. N 01 FAILURE The siren N 01 is in check on the installation. If several sirens are in check, the PILOTE RF displays only the latest detected failure. The correction of this failure allows displaying the failure below. - 33 -
5.4.6. Removal of the sirens «6 :DELETE SIREN» This menu allows deleting one or several sirens of the PILOTE RF programming. WARNING: If a siren must be removed from a site, it is imperative to remove it from the PILOTE RF programming to avoid that its absence does not generate a supervision alarm on the system. The menu «DELETE SIREN» does a RESET on the concerned siren. 6 : DELETE SIREN SIREN N 01? CONFIRM XXXX? IN PROGRESS DELETE XXXX OK SIREN N XX? <<<BACK SIREN N 16? ALL SIRENS? <<<BACK 5.4.7.

CMD ARMED 1.5 s. 5.4.9. Version of the software «9 : SOFT VERSION» The validation of this menu allows knowing the version of the PILOTE RF software. The PILOTE RF displays the version during 2 seconds and returns to the technical menu. 2 s. 9 : SOFT VERSION VERSION 001 5.4.10. Reset of the memory «0 : RESET FACTORY» This menu allows doing a general reset of the memory. 0 : RESET FACTORY CONFIRM RESET? WAIT RESET OK <<<BACK The PILOTE RF reprograms all its settings by default. The reset of the PILOTE RF memory does not reset the sirens that are associated with it. To do a reset of the sirens, see the paragraph 5. - 35 -
5.5. Exit of the programming mode There are three ways to exit the programming mode: 5.5.1. Exit by pressing the buttons + & The first method is simultaneously to press the buttons + and until the PILOTE RF displays : CLOSE COVER When the cover is closed, the PILOTE RF displays: TAMPER CLOSED A few seconds after closing the cover, the PILOTE RF instructs the sirens to leave the programming. The system is then ready to operate. 5.5.2. Exit trough the menu The exit of the programming mode can also be done by validating the following menu: >EXIT< > PROG.< The PILOTE RF displays: CLOSE COVER When the cover is closed, the PILOTE RF displays: TAMPER CLOSED A few seconds after closing the cover, the PILOTE RF instructs the sirens to leave the programming mode. The system is then ready to operate. 5.5.3. Exit by closing directly the cover This is the simplest method to leave the programming mode. Close directly the cover of the PILOTE RF which displays: TAMPER CLOSED A few seconds after closing the cover, the PILOTE RF instructs the sirens to leave the programming. The system is then ready to operate. The PILOTE RF displays too the inputs status by leaving the programming, as well as presents failures of the system (see 4.6 Failures signalling). - 36 -
6. RESET OF THE SIRENS Each siren or PILOTE RF has a unique identification number programmed in the factory. When a siren is associated with a PILOTE RF, they send each other their identifications codes and they record them in their EEPROM memory which retains the information even without power. If a siren must be replaced, it must first be deleted (separated) of the wireless network of its PILOTE RF before associating its successor. There are two methods to do a RESET of one siren: 6.1. RESET through the PILOTE RF In the technical menu of the PILOTE RF, choose the function «DELETE SIREN» and select the N of the siren that must to be deleted before validating (see 5.4.6). Without this operation, the siren and the PILOTE RF will continue to try to establish the interrupted communication and will trigger the supervision alarm if it is activated. 6.2. RESET on the siren If the PILOTE RF is not available and if you want to do a reset of the siren, follow this procedure: 1- Remove the cover of the siren 2- Disconnect the batteries and wait a few seconds 3- Reconnect one of the two batteries while maintaining the reset button pressed during at least five seconds. 4- When the red LED of the siren starts to flash slowly, this is the indication that the RESET has been taken into account. 5- Release the button of the siren. 6- Connect the second battery of the siren if it should be used immediately, if not disconnect the batteries. WARNING Note 1: If the siren has already undergone a RESET or a deletion, there is no reaction from the red LED. Note 2 : If the reset is done on a siren while the PILOTE RF is operational, it is imperative to remove this siren in the technical menu of the PILOTE RF to avoid a supervision alarm (see 5.4.3). - 37 -
