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 PolyxSave 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 optionalSave 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 groupsSave 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 optionalSave 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 2.5.1Save 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 lowSave the record.
