DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS - USERS INFORMATION
WARNING
FOR THE INSTALLER:
Please follow carefully the specifications relative to electric and security systems realization further to the
manufacturer'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 correctly.
Have skilled personnel make the periodic system's maintenance. Contact the installer to verify correct
system operation in case its conditions have changed (e.g.: variations in the areas to protect due to
extension, change of the access 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:
Wireless intrusion detection system
Any use outside of this area is not provided and it is not possible to guarantee its proper operation, and
therefore it is expressly forbidden to the holder of this manual to use it for other reasons than those
indicated.
The manufacturing process is carefully controlled to prevent defects and malfunctions; nevertheless the
components used is subjected to faults extremely low percentage, as indeed it does for every other
electronic or mechanical.
Given the target of this article (property and persons protection) invite the user to proportion the protection
level offered by the system to the actual risk (considering the possibility that the system it is operating in
degraded mode due to faults or other), reminding that there are clear rules for the design and construction of
equipment to this type of application.
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 necessary 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).
According to Directive 2012/19/EU on the Waste of Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), it is
here specified that this Electrical-Electromechanic Device started to be commercialized after 13th Au-
gust 2005, and it shall be disposed of separately from ordinary waste products.

1. GENERALS
HELIOSD unit is the core of an intrusion detection wireless system, extremely easy to install and to use.
The unit features a sophisticated receiving and processing device for data transmitted by wireless supervised
detectors; it can process and manage tamper and alarm conditions by controlling wireless sirens and by sending
voice messages to phone line subscribers or digital format alerts to surveillance centres.
HELIOSD unit can fully manage also special events, like fire events with dedicated detectors (e.g. DRACO) or medical
aid requests with TYROS remote control device.

6. HOW TO DEAL WITH...
6. 1 ... radio signals
When the control unit receives a radio signal one or more LED indicator(s) will light on .
When all three LEDs are on, the signal is at strongest level.
If LEDs light on while the detectors are in idle mode, it indicates that there may be other transmissions in progress
(i.e. supervision). Other nearby transmitters may operate over similar frequences, causing the LEDs to light on.
In this case, it is recommended to control the system working often.
If necessary, please contact EL.MO. technical assistance.
6. 2 ... detectors anomalies
When anomalies occur to a system detector (or more), green LED with symbol will blink or light off (i.e. open
doors or windows, motion detected by volumetric detector, etc.)
How to DISPLAY the events = Press key, than use keys to browse events. Press STOP to exit.
NOTE: green LED shall be steady lit when the system is in idle mode. When the system operates normally,
it may be blinking.
6. 3 ... system anomalies
When anomalies occur to the system, yellow LED will blink.
How to DISPLAY the events = Press key, than use keys to browse events. Press STOP to exit.
How to DELETE the events = See previous chapter.
NOTE: anomaly memories can be deleted only after having reset the triggering condition.
6. 4 ... alarm memories
When one or more alarm events occur, red LED will blink.
How to DISPLAY events = Press key, than use keys to browse events. Press STOP to exit.
How to DELETE the events = See previous chapter.
6. 5 ... tamper memories
When one or more tamper alarm events occur, red LED will blink (ex. detectors housings may have been
opened.)
How to DISPLAY events = Press #key, than use keys to browse events. Press STOP to exit.
How to DELETE the events = See previous chapter.

8. REGULAR TESTS AND MAINTENANCE
Check the system efficiency regularly using Walk Test menu available in USER INTERFACE section; during sys-
tem tests, sirens will be disabled; only the internal siren will beep slowly.
Make sure the recepients of test alarm messages do know the system is being tested.
When the test has been completed, reset the system standard operating status.
If necessary, contact the system installer and indicate problems occurred.
