AF927PLUS and AF927PLUSTC - INSTALLATION MANUAL
INTRODUCTION
AF927PLUS is a wireless / wired central unit with built-in Wi-Fi module. It can manage up to 99 detectors individually
identifiable through the "label" function which, when properly programmed, shows the point of origin of the alarm on
the display (eg: living room, kitchen, corridor, etc.). Thanks to a vocal synthesis provided on board, the label can also
be of the vocal type. This makes it possible to identify the individual detector by means of a programmable voice
message. The vocal synthesis also allows the recording of voice messages that inform the user about the main
events that have occurred on the system (eg. door open; system armed; system disarmed; etc.). The wired board
allows you to manage n.8 inputs with free balancing and n.16 with NC balancing. A wired output can also be controlled
by time, thanks to an internal timer, to manage the load by time slots.

In brackets the maximum absorption value with telephone dialler art. AFGSM04-4G.
Note:
•In the event of a power failure, the control unit automatically switches the Wi-Fi module off to save energy.
However, a special parameter is available so both Wi-Fi module and 4G GSM module can be kept active
simultaneously (see chapter GSM programming).
•To guarantee 24-hour system autonomy in the event of a power failure, it is not advisable to exceed a
maximum absorption value of 180mA (with two 12V 2.2Ah batteries).
•When using wired devices, a consumption of 120mA should not be exceeded. Should it be necessary to
connect a larger number of devices, an additional power supply unit with back-up battery must be used and
the fault signal for this power supply reported to the control unit or a wired bus input board (art. AFEX6I-
REN).

6
Sizing of the system
When using the control units, the installer must pay utmost attention to sizing of the system, with an eye power
consumption and resulting autonomy. EN 50131 sets the minimum power failure autonomy for Grade 2 at 12 hours:
this must be guaranteed (see table above).
How the system is used involves aspects that affect consumption, in particular the brightness of the display,
absorption of any sirens self-powered via cable and of any 12V peripherals connected via cable. These factors must
be properly considered in relation to the rating of the power supply unit which must, in turn, be able to ensure that
connected batteries are properly charged. The table shows the absorption of the 2 control unit models and any related
batteries: for each system the following must be calculated:
•Maximum absorption: this is done by adding the consumption of any other equipment cabled to the control
unit; this must never exceed the capacity of the power supply (it is advisable to keep absorption to 80% of
nominal capacity)
•Minimum autonomy in the absence of 230V power supply, considering the current available from the battery
at 80%.
Protections on the 12-14Vdc power supply and usage limitations
a) Max current limit: 200mA to charge internal battery/batteries (EN 50131-1: the maximum 72-hour charging is
met)
b) Current limit, achieved with resettable polyswitch: 650mA to recharge the battery of any wired siren (art.
AF53900N)
c) Limit for current designated to supply wired peripherals, achieved with resettable polyswitch: this must not
exceed 200mA if the control unit has 2 batteries, 80mA if it has only one battery.

INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS FOR CORRECT CONTROL UNIT INSTALLATION
These devices may only be used in the context of an alarm system and only as described in this manual.
They must be installed on site solely by technicians specialized in “electronic security”. Except for the accessible
compartments, opening the units immediately voids the industrial warranty. Any other use is considered improper
and prohibited. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for any damages resulting from misuse of the product; that
is for any use other than that indicated in this manual.
All control units operate by transmitting and receiving radio signals that are compliant with current standards:
therefore, they must be wall-mounted using the supplied screws and plugs and under conditions that allow for good
propagation of such signals. For this reason, niches and/or columns and/or walls of reinforced concrete should be
avoided, as should installation inside metal cabinets. Extensive metal surfaces and metal grates near the control unit
must also be avoided, even if embedded in walls. Positioning must take into account the mandatory position of the
detectors and sirens, making certain that the control unit is “central” to these units.
The quality of the signal received by control unit can be checked and, when in doubt, this check should be performed
before securing the control unit to the wall: when working with radio devices of this type, always remember that
moving just a few tens of centimetres can often significantly improve signal transmission/reception.
It is best for the control unit to be hidden from view but, at the same time, installed in a convenient position where all
its functions, including voice information, can be used. Useful sites are: behind doors, inside wooden or plastic
cabinets, behind pictures and/or pieces of furniture. It is advisable to avoid installation near other electronic devices.
Once the position has been defined, the connection wires that are to enter the back of the device —possibly by
breaking through the entry spaces arranged on the container —must be brought together. In particular, the cable
carrying power from the mains must be disconnected upstream during installation.
GENERAL INFORMATION
These devices are the heart and brains of a modern alarm system: equipped with the appropriate peripherals
(detectors, sirens, etc.), they manage the burglary/aggression intrusion detectors, both wireless and wired, all types
of wireless “technical” alarm sensors (water, smoke, gas, temperature, etc.), self-powered Wi-Fi cameras, remote
actuation devices.
Depending on the models and accessories included in the system, the control units can trigger high-powered acoustic
alarms and/or local warning messages through the appropriate wired and wireless sirens. They also activate landline
and mobile telephone calls, SMS messages, digital calls to surveillance centres. All operating functions can be
managed remotely via smartphone, tablet, web page and through the free AVE Cloud application (from
activation/deactivation to requesting of control frames and “push” signalling of new events).
The control units operate connected to the power mains and have a power supply able to keep the rechargeable lead
batteries optimally charged; these batteries are located in a space at the bottom of the box, together with the cabled
portion of the devices, thus enabling convenient wiring. Protection against opening/removal is guaranteed by special
break-in sensitive elements. The various functions are always shown in clear text on the display of the device or that
of the connected remote devices and are protected by a specific installer and user access codes (PIN).
OPENING THE BOX, WALL MOUNTING
Control unit boxes are opened by unscrewing the single screw on the bottom and removing the cover. On the inside,
there are 4 more screws that, with a hinged, “book-like” structure (located to the left of the casing) provide access to
the compartment containing the wired board and batteries.
The cables are routed through the pre-formed compartments at the bottom of the boxes. All electrical connections
must be made in a workmanlike manner, in compliance with the standards and using cables of suitable section.
Secureַtheַdevice’sַremovalַprotectionַmagnet on the back before securing the control unit to the wall using
the provided template.
The control unit must be secured to a wall, at a suitable height, using the screws and plugs provided.

8
GUARD PREVENTING OPENING AND REMOVAL
The opening signal is guaranteed by spring-loaded buttons, the removal prevention signal by a magnet that must be
secured to the wall/support that will hold the control unit using a special template.
CONNECTION TO THE 230Vac POWER SUPPLY
Carefully follow the precautions given below:
oUse flexible cable with conductor having a cross-section of at least 0.75mm2
oThe cable connection terminal is located in the centre of the battery compartment.
oSecure the cable well by tightening the screw of the cable block, after having connected it to the terminals.
The control units do not require earthing.
oAlways disconnect the mains power supply before working on the control unit: always connect the device to
the power mains using a 16A C curve Circuit Breaker.
SECURITY: SUPERVISION, ANTI-TAMPER, BATTERY CHECK, ANTI-SCANNER.
The various system devices communicate with one another via two-way radio communication in which each signal
is followed by confirmation: this enables the supervision of all wireless devices, with warning in case of failure, and
control of battery charge, with signalling when replacement is needed. In addition, in each device, the anti-tamper
controls are always active so that any attempt to open the casings and/or detach the unit from its housing are
immediately reported and cause an alarm, even when the system is disconnected. For this reason, the control unit
must be set in TEST mode before the batteries are replaced. The control unit checks whether there is any radio
interference that could prevent system function and signals this when needed. Network connection: the control unit
accommodates all security systems that must be properly enabled to prevent unauthorized access.
Warning! The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any unauthorized access that may occur.
