Setup Controller
If you’re turning system power on for the first time, certain tasks must be performed prior to entering access control information from Doors. On the EntraGuard Titanium main board (see Figure 2 on page 2), hold the Reset Button (SW1) down and turn the controller’s power on. After the controller beeps once, indicating the controller’s firmware is ready for programming, release the SW1 button. The LCD on the front panel will display the Reset Menu (see Figure 5). From this menu you may perform these tasks: set the controller’s address, clear the controller’s memory, set the microphone volume, and check diagnostics.
Figure 5: Reset Menu
NOTE: If no keys have been selected within 60 seconds, the unit will time out and go directly to the default message. In order to reach the Reset Menu, the unit must be powered up again.
Set Unit Address
The controller’s address may only be set through the Reset Menu. Once you have performed the necessary steps to reach the Reset Menu as described above. To set the desired operating address for the controller, press 1 on the keypad. The Set Panel Address screen appears on the LCD (see Figure 6).
Figure 6: Set Unit Address
The address range is from 1 to 128. The Master Controller must be set to
address 1. Other slave EntraGuard/PXL controllers may be assigned any number
from 2 to 128. If the network is made up of PXL-250s, the EntraGuard Titanium
must be set as the Master.
If the address shown as Current is correct, you may either enter the same
address and press , or just press to return to the reset menu. If you do
not enter a new address, or enter the same address that is already assigned to
this unit, you will need to clear the memory separately (see “Clear the
Controller’s RAM’’ on page 5).
NOTE: Changing the address of an EntraGuard Titanium controller
completely erases all information within the controller. It is vitally
important that you collect all event data from the controller before changing
the address. Once the address is changed (and the RAM is automatically
cleared) the event information in the controller is lost and cannot be
recovered.
If the address shown as Current needs to be changed, enter the new address by pressing the numbers on the keypad. The number selected will show in the New line. If you enter the wrong number, simply press CLEAR to erase what has been entered. When you are satisfied with the address entered, press *. If you have changed the number from what is shown as Current, the controller will automatically clear the memory as it changes the address (see Figure 7 ).
Figure 7: Clearing Memory
Once the memory has been cleared, the unit is ready to be configured. The LCD will display a warning that the unit has not been initialized. This display will rotate with the EntraGuard Default display until a Total Update from Doors has been performed on the unit. Once an update has been performed, only the default will be displayed.
Clear the Controller’s RAM
When turning system power on for the first time, the controller’s memory needs to be cleared of any spurious information that may be in the RAM. If you change the controller address, the memory is automatically cleared. However, if you did not change the address, you will need to clear the controller’s RAM separately. From the Reset Menu (see Figure 5 on page 4), press 2 to Clear Memory. The Clear Memory screen will appear on the LCD (see Figure 8).
Figure 8: Clear Memory
From the Clear Memory Screen, you may either:
-
Press 1 to clear the controller’s RAM. The LCD will change to show the memory is being cleared (see Figure 7). Once the controller’s RAM has been cleared, the unit is ready for use. The LCD will rotate between the Initialization Warning and EntraGuard Default screens until a Total Update from Doors has been performed on the unit.
or -
Press 2 to return to the Reset Menu without clearing the controller’s RAM.
NOTE: Clearing the system RAM completely erases all information within the EntraGuard Titanium controller, except for the controller address. If there is any information in system RAM from an access control installation and the system RAM is cleared, the information in the controller is lost and cannot be recovered, and a Total Update must be performed.
