INSTALLATION

GENERAL OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION

MAIN FEATURES:

• 4 zone terminals.
• 2 open-collector outputs.
• 2 10kΩ NTC/PT1000 temperature sensor inputs.
• Battery or externally-powered.
• Compatible with any third-party wired sensor or siren.

EW2 is a wireless device intended to expand ELDES alarm system capabilities by providing wireless connection access to any third-party wired devices. EW2 comes  quipped with 4 zone terminals designed for wired digital sensor connection, such as magnetic door contact, motion detector etc. In addition, the 2 open-collector outputs on board allow to connect any wired siren as well as to connect and control any electrical appliance, such as gates, lights, watering etc. EW2 also features 2 inputs for 10kΩ NTC/PT1000 analog temperature sensor connection. The device can operate by powering it either using an external power supply or 3 x 1,5V AA type alkaline batteries on board. Once the external power supply is disconnected, EW2 will automatically switch to battery power. In order to start using EW2, it has to be paired with ELDES alarm system using ELDES Configuration Tool software or by sending a corresponding SMS text message to ELDES alarm system.
It is possible to connect up to 8 EW2 devices to EPIR3, PITBULL ALARM or PITBULL ALARM PRO systems, ESIM364 – up to 16, while ESIM384 alarm systems – up to 32 EW2 devices at a time. The maximum wireless connection range is 150m (492.13ft) (in open areas).
The cable length should not be more than 3 meters long!

CONFIGURING AND PAIRING WITH THE SYSTEM

For more details on how to configure and pair the device with the system, please refer to ELDES Configuration Tool software’s HELP section or ELDES alarm system’s installation/user manual.
If you are unable to pair the wireless device, please restore the parameters of the wireless device to default and try again (see 6. RESTORING DEFAULT PARAMETERS for more details.)

EW2 ZONES, PGM OUTPUTS AND TAMPER

Upon successful EW2 pairing process, the system adds 4 wireless Instant-type zones intended for sensor connection and 2 wireless PGM outputs intended for electrical appliance, relay or siren connection. In case of tamper violation, the alarm is caused regardless of system being armed or disarmed.
The wireless connection loss between EW2 and ELDES alarm system leads to alarm. The system identifies this event as a tamper violation and sends alarm by SMS text message and phone call to the listed user (-s) by default. The SMS text message contains the wireless device model, wireless ID code and tamper name.
The tamper will not operate if the wireless zones are disabled.
The response time might be delayed, while controlling the PGM outputs on a battery-powered EW2.
For more details on EW2 configuration, please refer to ELDES Configuration Tool software’s HELP section.

TEMPERATURE SENSORS

EW2 supports up to 2 temperature sensors of 10kΩ NTC or PT1000 type. You may use a single temperature sensor or multiple temperature sensors simultaneously. Multiple  temperature sensors must be of the same type each connected to its own T1/T2 terminal. Once the temperature sensor (-s) is wired, it is necessary to select the corresponding type using ELDES Configuration Tool software after pairing EW2 device with the system. Also, after enabling  NTC option, you MUST enter the parameter B (beta) of temperature sensor.
The following table represents the supported temperature range and temperature measurement accuracy.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

1. Open EW2 enclosure.
2. Remove the old batteries from the battery slots.
3. Insert the new batteries based on the battery slot positive/negative terminals indicated on the battery slots of EW2.

• 1,5V Alkaline AA type batteries can be used. Install only new, high quality and unexpired batteries. Do not mix the old batteries with the new ones.
• At least 1 battery must be removed if the device is not in use.
• In order to avoid fire or explosion hazards, the system must be used only with approved battery. Special care must be taken when connecting posi- tive and negative battery terminals. Dispose old batteries only into special collection sites. Do not charge, disassemble, heat or incinerate old batteries.
• The battery status can be monitored in real-time using ELDES Configuration Tool software.
• The system sends an SMS text message to the listed user phone number as soon as the battery level runs below 5%.
• EW2 does NOT feature a built-in battery charging unit, therefore only 1,5V Alkaline AA type (non-rechargeable) batteries can be used.

RESTORING DEFAULT PARAMETERS

1. Remove any battery from EW2 and/or disconnect the power supply.
2. Press and hold the RESET button.
3. Insert the battery back to EW2 and/or connect the power supply.
4. Hold the RESET button until LED indicator shortly flashes several times.
   Release the RESET button.

The EW2 can be powered by a 7-15V 50mA DC power supply unit, if no additional devices are connected. The device is not meant for outdoor use, i.e. you should use it inside a building and the power supply unit must be plugged into a standard Euro 2-pin socket or UK 3-pin socket (depending on the version of power supply unit you have bought). When connecting the power supply, mind the polarity terminals. DO NOT switch the polarity terminals places. The main circuit should be protected by short circuit or over-current protection.
Please use the power supply that meets the EN 60950-1 standard. Any additional device you connect to the system, such as a computer, must also be powered by an EN 60950-1 approved supply.
Disconnect the mains power before installing. Never install or carry out maintenance during stormy weather. The electric socket that powers the device must be easily accessible.
To switch the system off, remove the batteries (if any), unplug the external electric power supply or power down any other linked device that EW2 is powered from. A blown fuse cannot be replaced by the user. The replacement fuse has to be of the kind indicated by the manufacturer (fuse F1 model – MINISMDC050F 0.5A).
