GARDTEC 580 ENGINEERS MANUAL
Introduction
The Gardtec 580 Control Panel is a seven zone microprocessor based unit that has
been designed to be suitable for domestic and small commercial installations. All
zones are fully programmable by the engineer.
Upon completion of the installation the engineer may, if need be, re-program several
factory set options so as to tailor the Control Panel to suit the requirements of the sys-
tem.
It should be noted that if a new four digit engineer code starts with a 9 it will be
locked into the system and may only be changed by using the code again
(default to factory settings will have no effect). This gives you the ability to pro-
tect your service revenue.
The Control Panel is supplied complete with an onboard keypad. Upto four remote key-
pads may be fitted if required. If remote keypads are used one extra entry / exit zone
may be used from the terminals within one of the keypads
All detection and output wiring is taken directly to the Control Panel, which also incor-
porates a 220/240V a.c connection. A transformer and adequate space for a recharge-
able lead acid battery upto 7 ampere/hour is also provided.
Display of the system status is given via a twin seven segment L.E.D display on the
Control Panel. This display is also echoed on all remote keypads that are fitted. The
twin seven segment display has the ability to give more logical information to the user.
Keypress tamper is factory set to 24 digits (without a valid code number) before the
tamper is activated. During unset conditions this will cause an internal alarm and dur-
ing a set condition it will cause a full alarm.
We recommend that this engineers manual and the user manual are read and fully
understood before any installation of the system is carried out. You will find that a little
time spent now understanding the product will be a great time saver for the future.

Planning the Control Panel Location
Consideration in locating the fixing position of the Control Panel should be given to:
The underside position of the lid securing screw with relation to the cover
fitting and removal.
Access for the routing of cables for the system from detection devices,
sounders (internal and external), remote keypads, mains, etc.
The fixing of a 3 amp unswitched fused spur.
Operation of the onboard keypad.
Readability of the display.
Installation
Slacken the cover screw located on the lower edge of the Control Panel but do not
remove completely.
Pull the lower edge of the cover forward and upwards in one movement. Store cover in
a safe place.
Although the main P.C.B (Printed Circuit Board) is protected by the plastic moulding
we would recommend that it is removed until the rear portion of the Control Panel is
fixed to the wall.
To do this remove the speaker wires from the terminal block. Unclip the P.C.B from
one of the side clips and lift clear of the other side clip with a sidewards motion. Unplug
the a.c/battery connection from the underside of the P.C.B. Store the P.C.B in a safe
place.
Mark the fixing position on the wall (one upper hanger and two fixing holes) using the
Control Panel backplate as a template. Under no circumstances should you drill whilst
holding the backplate in position.
Fix to the wall using appropriate wall plugs and No.8 screws at least 30mm long. Do
not tighten the screws at this stage, wait until all your wiring is in place.

Cable Entries
The cable entries can be seen in Fig 1. below. It should be noted that when the larger
of the two cable entry slots below the speaker housing is used the cables will tend to
lie flat and side by side. This will make the task of tightening the fixing screws and get-
ting the panel to 'lie flat' to the wall easier.

Mains Supply Connection
A 220/240V a.c supply should be taken directly from the consumer unit. In order to
comply with the requirements of B.S 4737 this should be via a 3 Amp unswitched fused
spur. This is shown in Fig 2. below.

Output Terminal Descriptions
Speaker Terminals
One speaker is fitted as standard to the GARDTEC 580 and a speaker is supplied in
each keypad. If an extension speaker is required it should have a minimum impedance
of 16 . Both of the speakers should be wired in series format as shown in Fig 4.
Fig 4. 2 x Speakers
PGM 1 Terminal
This terminal provides the switch +ve (or set +ve) required by most types of latching
detectors. The terminal is an open collector output held at 12V through an integral 1k
resistor. Max current sink into this terminal is 50mA. This terminal is programmable for
other uses (as shown in PGM2) if required.
PGM 2 Terminal
This terminal provides a switched 12V output and is programmable by the engineer
from the list below. The terminal would normally be used with latching detectors that
require the power to be removed to reset. Max current source from this terminal is
50mA

Output Terminal Descriptions (cont)
Power Supply Rating
It should be noted that the Gardtec 580 has 1 Amp available for the full system.
Sounders, detectors and other auxiliary items should be included when calculat-
ing current drawn by the system. Any damage caused through overloading the
Control Panel will not be covered by the warranty.
AUX 12V Terminals
This pair of terminals supply the + and - supply for detectors such as Gardscan P.I.Rs,
Shockgard vibration sensors, etc. 1 Amp is available from these terminals (see power
supply rating above).
Strobe Terminals
This pair of terminals are the output for the strobe light. The negative terminal is
switched during an alarm period. It should be noted that after an alarm, the strobe will
overrun after the bell has reset until the system is unset. A maximum of 500mA may be
drawn from these terminals (see power supply rating above).
Bell Terminals
This pair of terminals are the output for the Bell or external sounder. The negative ter-
minal is switched during an alarm period. A maximum of 1 Amp may be drawn from
these terminals (see power supply rating above).

Remote Keypads
Upto four remote keypads may be fitted to the GARDTEC 580 control panel. The
GARDTEC 580 LED RKP has a twin seven segment display, backlit keypad and an
integral speaker.
One extra Entry / Exit zone may be used from any one of the RKPs increasing the
number of available zones to eight. Terminals to facilitate both the extra zone and
associated tamper are included within the remote keypad.
A four core connection will be required between the control panel data port and remote
keypad(s), we would advise that all keypads are in a 'daisy chain' format.
Full instructions for connection are included with the RKPs.
ProDigi Communicator
The ProDigi communicator may be fitted to the GARDTEC 580 Series control. A four
core connection will be required to the control panel data port. The ProDigi must be the
first device in the 'daisy chain' line between the control panel and any other remote
devices.
The ProDigi will require programming from a GARDTEC
800 Series control panel or a
ProDigi programmer. A ProDigi programmer is available at all Gardiner Technology
branches for customer use.

GARDTEC 580 ENGINEERS MANUAL
Initial Power Up
When the Control Panel is initially powered up it will be either set or unset dependent
on the state of the Control Panel when it was powered down. The factory default state
will be unset.
As power is applied segments of the twin seven segment display will be lit for approx
six seconds. During this period press 4 6 YES NO to ensure that the Control Panel is
at factory settings. The display will then show set or unset.
Reset to Default Modes
Two methods may be used to reset the Control Panel back to factory defaults.
Method 1
Remove the cover from the Control Panel (this will cause a tamper Cb on display and
sounder).
Remove the link marked LK1 on the edge of the P.C.B module (this will give temporary
access to the default codes 5678 for user and 1234 for engineer)
Enter the factory default user code 5678 to stop the sounder.
If you wish to re-program the user code, enter this code again to enter user mode
and follow the user instructions for changing user codes. You must replace LK1
before you enter the new code.
Or if you wish to re-program an engineer option, enter the factory default engineer
code (1234) and press YES to gain access. Then replace LK1 and follow the engineer
programming instructions.
Method 2
Apply power to the panel and press 00 within the first 5 seconds.
Down power the again and leave for at least 10 seconds.
Re-apply either the mains or battery supply.
Press 4 6 YES NO within the first 5 seconds.
The Control Panel is now back to factory defaults.
Note: The two methods shown above will have no effect on the engineer code if
it started with a '9'. If this is the case, only re-use of the programmed engineer
code will allow it to be changed.

System Programming
The system may be programmed by the engineer by use of the engineer code (1234
factory default). Other functions are also available to the engineer, these are as fol-
lows.
Set
The engineer may fully set the system or partset the system.
Unset
The engineer may only unset the system using the engineer code if it has previously
been set using the engineer code.
Remove
The engineer may remove individual zones when setting the system.
Test
The engineer may use this function to test the system.
Log
Using this function the engineer may read the log. The log will be shown on a last
event first basis.
Chime
Using this function the engineer may turn the chime function on and off. It should be
noted that chime zones must first be programmed from the engineer zone option.
The above options will be dealt with in the section Engineer Modes
