Programming with a Computer The AE-500’s built-in programming interface can be accessed on-site (using a separate telephone line) or off-site using a computer with a modem and any Internet browser (if using Netscape, be sure Java is installed). The AE-500 can be programmed using the local keypad or with a telephone, but computer programming is the easiest method. Navigating through the AE-500’s programming “pages” is similar to browsing through your favorite web site’s pages.
Setting up Multiple Units The system supports up to seven AE-500s connected to the same telephone line. Some telephone systems may only support up to four units on the same telephone line. In multiple-unit installations each AE-500 must be assigned a unique unit number before programming. The unit number allows connecting to a specific unit when calling for programming. One unit must be assigned as Unit #1.
Programming Over the Telephone The system can be programmed using a TouchTone™ telephone. The telephone’s keypad will act similar to the AE-500’s local keypad. 1. CALL THE SYSTEM Connecting with a Telephone 2. WAIT FOR THE TONE TO FINISH 1. Place a call to the telephone number of the line that AE-500 is connected to. 2. The AE-500 will answer and sound a tone for about ½ second. 3.

Resident Data Programming Up to 250 resident names and telephone numbers can be set. Each resident entry is assigned a directory number. The directory numbers are the numbers visitors enter to have the system call the residents. ✦ NOTE: When entering resident names, programming the AE-500 from a computer is the preferred method. Refer to the “Programming from the Local Keypad” section of these instructions for details on alphanumeric entry from the keypad.
Entry Code Programming An entry code is a number entered at the AE-500 keypad or remote keypad to request access. Up to 500 entry codes can be set. Entry codes can be from two to six digits in length (all will be the same length). Entry codes can be programmed for timed or toggle operation. Timed relays activate for a programmed length of time. Toggle relays latch on until the next time a toggle entry code is entered, then the relay unlatches.
Wireless Transmitter Programming Up to 500 wireless transmitters can be used with the system. Transmitters can be ordered in pre-programmed blocks of sequential ID codes. Up to 16 blocks of transmitters can be used. Transmitter blocks can be ordered with a Facility Code of 1-15 for block identification if desired. Using Facility Codes is optional. For security, an individual transmitter can be deactivated in case it is lost or stolen.
Wireless Transmitter Programming (Continued) Activate a Transmitter If a transmitter has been suspended, it can be activated again with these programming steps. 1. If not already in Programming Mode, connect by telephone or use the local keypad. Enter the master password and access programming. 2. Press 3. Enter the transmitter’s facility code (enter 0 if not used). 4. Press 5. Enter the transmitter’s ID number. 6. Press 7. Exit Programming Mode if all programming is complete.
System Options For most installations the factory settings for the system will be appropriate. Your installer may have already customized some of the system settings. To change selected system settings, use the following programming steps. Keypad Lockout Count The system counts the number of invalid entry codes are entered at the local or remote keypad. The factory setting for the lockout count is five. The lockout value can be from two to seven. 1.
System Options (Continued) Speaker Tone on Relay Channel “A” Activation The factory setting will not cause the speaker to sound a tone when access is granted with Relay Channel “A”. The tone can be turned on if desired. 1. If not already in Programming Mode, connect by telephone or use the local keypad. Enter the master password and access programming. 2. Press 3. Select the option for relay activation tone: • Enter 0 to turn OFF the relay activation tone. • Enter 1 to turn ON the relay activation tone. 4.
System Utilities Several utility commands are available for the system. Utilities can be used to clear memory, display system information, and control the relays. Display Unit Number In multi-unit installations the unit number of each AE-500 can be displayed. 1. If not already in Programming Mode, use the local keypad to enter the master password and access programming. 2. Press 3. The display will show the unit number for three seconds. 4. Exit Programming Mode if all programming is complete.
AE-500 Operation Requesting Access with an Entry Code • Residents have up to 40 seconds to key in their entry code. • Up to eight seconds are allowed between each keystroke. • All digits of the entry code must be entered. Example: If the entry code length is set for four digits, and the code is 0042, the user must enter “0 0 4 2”. • If the wrong key is pressed, pressing the key will reset the keypad. The correct code can then be re-entered.
