FOR THE INSTALLER:
Please follow carefully the specifications relative to electric and security systems realization further to the manufac-
turer’s prescriptions indicated in the manual provided.
Provide the user the necessary indication for use and system’s limitations, specifying that there exist precise
specifications and different safety performances levels that should be proportioned to the user needs. Have the user
view the directions indicated in this document.
FOR THE USER:
Periodically check carefully the system functionality making sure all enabling and disabling operations were made cor-
rectly.
Have skilled personnel make the periodic system’s maintenance. Contact the installer to verify correct system oper-
ation in case its conditions have changed (e.g.: variations in the areas to protect due to extension, change of the ac-
cess modes, etc…) ......................................................
This device has been projected, assembled and tested with the maximum care, adopting control procedures in
accordance with the laws in force. The full correspondence to the functional characteristics is given exclusively when
it is used for the purpose it was projected for, which is as follows:
Microprocessor-based control units with remote control function
Any use other than the one mentioned above has not been forecasted and therefore it is not possible to guarantee
its correct operativeness.
The manufacturing process is carefully controlled in order to prevent defaults and bad functioning. Nevertheless, an
extremely low percentage of the components used is subjected to faults just as any other electronic or mechanic prod-
uct. As this item is meant to protect both property and people, we invite the user to proportion the level of protection
that the system offers to the actual risk (also taking into account the possibility that the system was operated in a de-
graded manner because of faults and the like), as well reminding that there are precise laws for the design and as-
semblage of the systems destinated to these kind of applications.
The system’s operator is hereby advised to see regularly to the periodic maintenance of the system, at least
in accordance with the provisions of current legislation, as well as to carry out checks on the correct running
of said system on as regular a basis as the risk involved requires, with particular reference to the control unit,
sensors, sounders, dialler(s) and any other device connected. The user must let the installer know how well
the system seems to be operating, based on the results of periodic checks, without delay.
Design, installation and servicing of systems which include this product, should be made by skilled staff with the nec-
essary knowledge to operate in safe conditions in order to prevent accidents. These systems’ installation must be
made in accordance with the laws in force. Some equipment’s inner parts are connected to electric main and therefore
electrocution may occur if servicing was made before switching off the main and emergency power. Some products
incorporate rechargeable or non rechargeable batteries as emergency power supply. Their wrong connection may
damage the product, properties and the operator’s safety (burst and fire).

1. GENERALS
HS520 control unit has been designed to manage a single residential unit system, with the possibility to ena-
ble the 4 partitions/sectors separately and assign them up to 15 users. Each user can also be assigned a per-
sonal 6-figure code, an M4 key, and a TAURUS remote control device.
User interface includes a 20-rubber key backlit keypad and 4 keys for partitions/sectors activation. Control
and signalling messages will be displayed on a backlit LCD display and indicated by 4 front led indicators.
Different features of the three control units are listed in the common technical manual.
This User and Programming Manual will take under examination HS520 unit and signal the different featu-
res of HS515 and HS510 units where necessary; this manual will illustrate setup procedure available for users
who will then be able to program the unit completely. The full setup can also be performed by installers by en-
tering the unit with their code; if this is the case, users will be authorized for normal system maintenance pro-
cedure.

3.6 Answering Machine function
Answering machine function enables to store phone numbers of calls received while absent and with par-
tially/totally armed system. The numbers are stored on the basis of CALLER ID function, which is provided by
the landline provider with whom the system’s owner has entered into a contract for the number called.
IMPORTANT: verify availability of this service in your area.
To store a phone number:
- Enable this function from Dialer - Line Prop. menu.
- Arm the alarm system totally or partially.
- The incoming call has to be at least two rings in length.
Total storage capacity is 18 numbers (the last 18 incoming numbers). Each number is stored with day/mon-
th/year and day/time details, though previously stored numbers will not be overwritten in chronological order.
Phone numbers are not stored on to non-volatile memory and are kept until control unit is properly powe-
red or until total reset procedure is performed.
If led blinks slowly, it indicates that at least one number has been stored on to answering machine
memory.
To display Answering Machine information follow illustrated procedure:
The presence of one (or more) phone number stored on to Answering machine memory is normally di-
splayed during a remote assistance session with Winassist application directly or remotely connected, perfor-
med by the system installer. The creation of an Installer code will enable browsing Answering machine
numbers list during maintenance session. For Privacy reasons, installers will not be enabled to seestored num-
bers from remote locations.
3.7 Display when unit is directly connected to a PC
When control unit is directly connected to a PC for operating parameters setup, the system dialer is disa-
bled, but alarm events (if present) will be kept on to a temporary memory and will be used at the end of the
connection for calls, according to Dialer menu settings.
NOTE: CP8/SER2 cable, required for connection, must be disconnected from Minidin connector.
During a phone remote assistance session with installation company, CP8/SER2 cable must not be con-
nected to Minidin connector.
3.8 Event log display
Events are logged with data&time info and event log can be displayed on NADIR remote keypad too.
HS series control unit feature a FIFO memory: last 100 events will be kept but only HS520 and HS515 units
will keep these data in case of total power cut.
Alternatively, it is possible to download and print units event log using direct connection to PC and units
special browser; also installers can download and print logs during a phone remote assistance session with
WINASSIST application.
