1 Introduction

This document describes the way how to program one or more Orions into iProtect™.
iProtect™ support Orion: Version 8.03 or higher

1.1 System setup

The Orion system setup is schematically processed in the drawing below:


2 iProtect Settings

2.1 License

No extra licenses are needed when programming the Orion into iProtect™. However, account should be taken of the number of connected readers and the corresponding Reader license.

  • Click in iProtect™ Aurora on the menu item Installation | Database | License.

  • Check the value of license number 22 “ Max supported readers”.

2.2 Add line

  • Click in iProtect™ Aurora on the menu item Installation | Hardware | Line.

  • Right-click in the browse window and select ‘Add line’. The detail window opens.

  • Enter these data:
    Name: Enter a logic name
    Type: ‘Network device’
    Active: (check)
    Active (with nodes): check
    Mode: ‘Keyprocessor’
    MAC address: the MAC-adress of the Polyx (optional)
    IP-address: the IP-address of the Polyx

  • Save the data.

2.3 Add node

  • Click with you right mouse button on the created Line (see chapter 2.2) and choose
    “Add node”. The detail window opens.

  • Enter the following data:
    Name: Enter a logic name
    Type: ‘Orion’
    Serial port address: PRT2 or PRT3 (Max. 8 Orions per port)
    Serial number: Enter the serial number of the Orion or leave it empty*
    Active: (check)

  • Save the data.

After saving the Node record, a (location) Buzzer output will be created by the system.

*At the rear of the Orion you can find the unique 7 digit serial number. When leave this field
empty, it will automatically discover the connected Orions. However, account should be taken
that you know which Orion (serial number) is placed where in the building.

2.4 Add reader

There are two options to create a new card reader in combination with an Orion:

Option one
Conditions: The Line and Node are active and the status/quality is 100%

When presenting a card for a non existing Reader which is connected to the Orion, iProtect™
will create the Reader by itself and will calculate which Card data interpretation it must use.
When it doesn’t match an existing “Card data interpretation”, it will create one.

  • Search for the new created Reader

  • Enter the following data:
    Name: Enter a logic name
    Input/Output: Set the inputs and outputs
    Door: Set the door unlatch time (default: 3 seconds)
    Other settings: All other settings are optional

  • Save the data.

  • Click on the left side (treeview) on the + in front of the Reader. The “Reader group list”
    will be displayed:
    Check one or more reader groups

  • Save the date

Option two
Conditions: Line and Node can be on- or offline. The user wants to create the Reader manually

  • Click with you right mouse button on the created Node (see chapter 2.3) and choose
    “Add reader”. The detail window opens.

  • Enter the following data:
    Name: Enter a logic name
    Subnumber: 1 or 2
    Card data interpretation: Select an existing
    Input/Output: Set the inputs and outputs
    Door: Set the door unlatch time (default: 3 seconds)
    Other settings: All other settings are optional

  • Save the data.

  • Click on the left side (tree-view) on the + in front of the Reader. The “Reader group
    list” will be displayed:
    Check one or more reader groups
    Save the date

2.5 Add input

  • Open in iProtect™ Aurora the menu item Installation | Hardware | Input or click with
    you right mouse button on the created Node (see chapter 2.3) and choose “Add input”.
    The detail window opens.

  • Enter the following data:
    Name: Enter a logic name
    Input mode: Follow contact signal
    Type: See chapter 2.5.1

  • Save the record.

2.5.1 Input type

Depending of the selected input it’s possible to select more input mode values. The resistor
values which you can choose are needed when using Guarded area functionality:

  • NO - Normally open

  • NC - Normally closed

  • Blocked

  • EOL (End Of Line)*

  • DEOL (Dual End Of Line)*

  • DEOL inverted*

  • TEOL (Triple End Of Line)*

  • TEOL inverted*

  • Recommended resistor values: EOL: 4k7 or 5k6 and Masking 22K

2.6 Add outputs

  • Click in iProtect™ Aurora on the menu item Installation | Hardware | Output.

  • Right-click in the browse window and select ‘Add output’. The detail window opens.

  • Enter these data:
    Name: Enter a logic name for the output
    Node: Select the Node
    Number at node: select the specific output of the device
    Output mode: Follow source
    Source: Constantly low

  • Save the record.

  • No labels
