Information in this manual is subject to change without notice
Thank you for purchasing an ARC Plus SL
Remote Control. You can expect state of the art
convenience and reliability that will provide
years of satisfaction.
We’ve observed that installations go smoothly
when the engineer plans the project and allows
time for familiarization before jumping in.
We recommend setting up new units in a
comfortable work environment before installing
at the transmitter site. In addition to hardware
familiarization, it will also be possible to do
much of the configuration before going to the
site.

ABOUT THE ARC PLUS SYSTEM
The ARC Plus SL that you purchased is part of an integrated system of
products that work together to provide just the right balance of
capabilities for many different types and styles of operations. As
requirements dictate, the ARC Plus system can be reconfigured easily.
ARC PLUS MODELS
ARC Plus refers to the ARC Plus product line in general as well as to
the previous model unit of the same name. The ARC Plus SL is the
slimline version of the ARC Plus with no front panel.
This manual applies to ARC Plus SL version 5 which includes changes
in both hardware and firmware from version 2 or 3. Installation of
version 5 firmware or above can only be done on version 5
hardware.

separate documentation. The SNMP Plus option, available on the V5 ARC Plus Touch and SL, enables direct SNMP
control and monitoring of transmitters and other devices.
NEW IN FIRMWARE VERSION 5.0.8.1
The Captures feature, available on ARC Plus SL units with firmware 5.0.8.1 or newer, allows you to configure the
ARC Plus SL to store periodic captures (snapshots) of a specified range of channel values locally on The ARC Plus SL.
These captures can be downloaded later from a remote computer running AutoPilot software. Snapshots include a
timestamp, site, channel number, meter value, status value and alarm states.
NEW IN FIRMWARE VERSION 5.0.5.1
Extended length text labels can now be assigned to meter and command channels. Each meter channel label can
now include up to 20 characters. Each command channel label can now include up to 24 characters, displayed as
three lines of eight characters each.
NEW IN FIRMWARE VERSION 5.0.3.5
Warp EngineTM polling using AutoPilot® software is now supported. Warp Engine polling enables fast, efficient,
real-time monitoring of up to 100 sites per second, with each site reporting as many as 32 status and/or meter
values. Larger networks just take a little longer, for example polling up to 500 sites in 5 seconds. Warp Engine
polling uses very small packets, sending only required data and minimizing communications overhead. If
communications bandwidth is at a premium cost, it can be further reduced by selection of a slower polling rate.
AutoPilot version 2.10.50 or greater must be used for Warp Engine operation.
NEW IN FIRMWARE VERSION 5.0.2.6
SNMP Plus, an optional SNMP manager inside the Version 5 ARC Plus SL is now available, supporting SNMP SET and
Get commands.
Now it’s easier than ever to connect to remote site equipment with SNMP Plus – the powerful new SNMP Manager
inside the ARC Plus SL. With SNMP Plus, traditional and SNMP equipment can be seamlessly integrated over the
same network. SNMP channels behave like any other ARC Plus channel. SNMP data can be mapped to ARC Plus
meter and status channels for monitoring and alarm generation. ARC Plus command channels can initiate SNMP
Set commands for control of connected SNMP equipment. And SNMP Plus enables creation of comprehensive
automated functions on the ARC Plus that encompass all controlled equipment whether connected via parallel
interface or SNMP. The SNMP Plus option can be added to any Version 5 ARC Plus Touch or SL. Instructions for
activation and operation of the SNMP Plus option can be found in the ARC Plus SL Version 5 User Guide, Rev D or
later.
NEW IN FIRMWARE VERSION 5.0.2.1

6
ARC Plus Touch and ARC Plus SL users with Version 5 firmware can now take advantage of the Burk Email Cloud
Service. The cloud service works in conjunction with your ARC Plus Touch or ARC Plus SL system to originate
encrypted emails using the STARTTLS protocol extension. If your current email server does not support STARTTLS,
you can open a free email account with an Internet email service provider. The Burk email cloud service is
compatible with email services from a wide range of providers including Gmail,mail.com, GMX and Zoho.
NEW IN FIRMWARE VERSION 5.0.1.21
Custom speech files can now be uploaded to the ARC Plus SL from any network-connected PC running AutoLoad
Plus version 3.1.72 or higher. Each uploaded speech segment must be a mono, 16-bit, 8kHz WAV file. Physical
access to the ARC Plus SL unit is not required during the upload process. Speech file directories can also be saved
to a network drive for off-line editing and future upload to the ARC Plus SL.
NEW IN FIRMWARE VERSION 5
ARC Plus Version 5 firmware is the initial release of firmware built for the ARC Plus SL Version 5 hardware. This
hardware permits increased firmware performance and the addition of new features.
Version 5 now supports meter and status types that are settable from a macro. Commands can now start and stop
macros on raise and lower. This permits a raise command to start one macro and the lower command to start
another. (Previously, the lower command could only stop a macro.)
The web page now supports banks and a welcome message has been added to the page.
New macro commands If Value, Set Value and Send Email Template have been added and are described in this
manual.
The modem connection now allows a straight RS-232 connection as well.
Passwords and usernames have been lengthened to 32 characters.
The number of macro messages has been increased to 256.
Connected ARC-16s are no longer supported. Since the introduction of AutoPilot, for most this is no longer an
issue. If you are using direct connected ARC-16s in an ARC Plus environment, contact support for guidance.

INTRODUCTION
The ARC Plus remote monitoring and control system takes advantage of the scalability of TCP/IP to provide site-to-
site control, central monitoring and/or distributed access to hundreds of sites. Users can manage the system via
web browser, smartphone, tablet and optional telephone and software interfaces, in any combination. Multi-site
ARC Plus networks allow site-to-site control from the front panel of any ARC Plus or ARC Plus Touch, and
automatic coordination of multiple facilities via onboard macros.
FRONT PANEL
ALARM LED
The Alarm LED indicates alarm activity. By default, the LED illuminates red when there is an alarm at the
local site. It may instead be configured to illuminate when there is an alarm at any site in the ARC Plus
network (Click or turn to ALARMS for details). When no alarm is present, the LED is green, indicating that
power is on.
REMOTE LED
Indicates when link is lost or unit is in maintenance mode.
MAINTENANCE MODE PUSHBUTTON
Maintenance mode prohibits all commands. For safety, this can only be switched on or off locally.
