1. Overview
1.1 Introduction
The IDS Digital Remote Receiver MK II is a 433.92 MHz RF receiver that is designed to connect to an
IDS816/EX or IDS1632 Alarm Panel. The receiver connects to the keypad bus (via D+ and D- terminals),
permitting the Alarm Panel to be armed and disarmed from remote transmitters. When remotes are
learned, they are assigned to USER CODES stored in the IDS Alarm Panel. This means that the Alarm
Panel is able to log ARM/DISARM events per user.
Functionality of the receiver is extended with two fully programmable relay outputs, which also makes this
receiver useful for stand-alone applications (without Alarm Panels).
1.2 Wiring and Configuration
1.3 Features
Up to 200 users in stand-alone mode.
In panel mode the number of users is panel dependant.
Three LEDs for communication.
Support for bus-wired and stand-alone operation.
Communicates with the Alarm Panel via a RS485 keypad bus.
Programmable via an 8-way DIP switch.
Onboard tamper switch.

1.4 Electrical Specifications
Supply Voltage: 10 to 15 VDC
Current Consumption: 30mA
Relay Rating Contacts: 1 A @ 30 VDC
Minimum Receiver Sensitivity: ≤ -100 dBm
Receiver Frequency: 433.92 MHz
1.5 DIP Switches
There are no jumpers on this receiver, as the 6-pin dual in-line connector is used for version updates.
All of the programming is performed via DIP switches (1 - 8). These are used for programming the
functionality of the receiver, to learn remote buttons, change operating parameters, and to set the mode
of operation. These instructions use the terms “SET” and “CLEAR” to refer to the position of the relevant
DIP switches.
(Set = On, Clear = Off.)
During normal operation (STANDBY MODE) all switches are cleared, except the two that are used to
select STANDBY MODE options - see page 16 “Selecting Standby Mode” for more details on these
options.

1.6 LED Indication
There are three LEDs on the receiver PCB. A red, a green and an amber LED.
The amber LED is on when there is a satisfactory bus connection between the receiver and the Alarm
Panel.
The red and green LEDs can display a multitude of different signals to indicate receiver status. A full table
of red and green LED indications is included on page 13.

2. Defaulting Procedure
2.1 Clearing and Defaulting the Receiver
There are three “reset” functions. These enable you to delete all remote users, or restore the factory
default settings for the relay parameters - or perform a complete clear and reset. This only needs to be
done if there are users/remotes that you want to delete. The three options work as follows:
2.2 Delete All Users/All Remote Transmitters
(All remotes are deleted - Parameter settings are not changed)
Set DIP switches 2, 5, 6, 7, and (lastly) 8.
Clear DIP switch 8 to delete all the remotes.
Clear all remaining switches to return to standby mode.
The ARMED LED stays on.
2.3 Parameter Reset
(Defaults all the parameters - remote buttons are NOT erased)
Set DIP switches 1, 5, 6, 7, and (lastly) 8.
Clear 8 to affect the reset.
Clear all remaining switches to return to standby mode.
The ARMED LED stays on.
2.4 Erase Remotes and Restore Factory Default
This will restore the receiver to its “as-new” factory default condition, ALL buttons are erased.
Set DIP switch 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and (lastly) 8.
Clear 8 to restore the factory defaults and erase all remotes.
Clear all remaining switches to return to standby mode.
The ARMED LED stays on.
NOTE:
The above clears the remote receiver’s ID that has been assigned to the Alarm Panel. Use the installer
program location 0 to “remove missing devices”:
LOCATION 0 Defaulting of the panel or master user code
[#] [INSTALLER CODE] [*] [0] [*] [4] [*] and [#] to exit
NOTE:
When erasing remotes or defaulting them, please make sure that the receiver is not connected to the
Alarm Panel at that time. Once you have completed this function, then you may reconnect the receiver to
the panel.

3. Panel Mode (Alarm Panel Functions)
These settings only apply to receivers being used with IDS Alarm Panels. All remotes follow these
settings, they cannot be different from one remote to the next.
3.1 Button Assignment (Alarm Panel Functions)
3.2 Add Remote to Panel
Use the following steps to add remote transmitters to the remote receiver connected to an IDS Alarm
Panel via the keypad bus.
1. Defaulting of the Remote Receiver is only for new installations of the Remote Receiver.
2. On the Alarm Panel, ADD the user codes that will be assigned to the remote receivers (one for
each). Do this only if the codes have not already been entered before.
NOTE:
If you are using a partitioned system, please note the following;
A: The user code must be allocated to the partition first.
[*] [Master Code] [*] [5] [*] [User Code] [*] [Partition Number] [*]
B: When learning the remote the client must use a keypad in the same partition as the user code.
3. On the remote receiver set DIP switch 3 (ON).
NOTE:
When connected to an Alarm Panel this switch may be left ON as the learn mode is only possible when
Option 8 is active, see below.
4. Enter the Alarm Panel user program mode:
Hold [*] till the beep (3-4 seconds), enter: [MASTER CODE] and press [*]
5. Select option 8, adding user remote, by entering:

[8] [*]
The READY and ARMED LEDs will flash simultaneously on the keypad.
6. Enter the user code to be assigned to the remote transmitter:
[USER CODE] [*]
7. On the remote to be assigned to the user code above. Press:
(Any button)
This will assign the remote to the user code entered in step 6.
8. To add additional remotes press [*] on the keypad and repeat steps 6 and 7 for each remote
transmitter to be assigned or press [#] key to exit user program mode.
9. Clear DIP switch 3 if accessible.
Consult the Alarm Panel installer manual for instructions on how to delete USER CODES from the Alarm
Panel’s memory. Only delete USER CODES if so required, existing USER CODES can still be used.

“Hold ANY button for three seconds” panic facility. Clearing this switch will permit a 3-second panic
press on any button of any learned remote to trigger the panic relay and cause a panic signal to be sent
to the Alarm Panel, triggering a panic event –which would also be recorded in the Alarm Panel’s event
log.
Arm protect
Setting DIP switch 2 (permanently) will prevent ARM and STAY ARM signals from being received any
more than once every 20 seconds.
Clear other switches to return to standby mode.
5. Stand-alone Mode

Wait for the time you would like the relay to pulse
Clear DIP switch 8 to commit timed period to memory
The ARMED and READY LED’s will flash.
Clear other switches to return to standby mode.
7. Fault Finding
7.1 Amber LED Indicator
The sole function of this LED is to indicate when there is a valid bus connection between the receiver and
an IDS Alarm Panel.
7.2 Red and Green LED Indicators
LED behaviour in STANDBY MODE
When the receiver decodes a valid (but unlearned IDS remote), the red LED will temporarily turn off. If it
decodes a learned remote, the green LED will turn on for the period that the receiver signal is present.
Upon decoding the learned remote, the respective relay is triggered and an appropriate message is sent
to the Alarm Panel.
LED behaviour in PROGRAMMING MODE
During the programming process, the green and red LEDs indicate the current programming function
with combinations of FOUR different indications:
Status
Action
OFF
the LED is OFF
ON
the LED is shining continuously
Slow
the LED is blinking slowly (one pulse per second)
Fast
the LED is blinking fast (five pulses per second)

IDS Digital Remote Receiver MKII 700-373-02CIssued April 2010

Setting DIP switch 8 causes the receiver
to read the DIP switch settings
Clearing DIP switch 8 commits the selection
and returns the receiver to STANDBY MODE.
7.3 Programming Quick Reference Table
NOTE:
Familiarise yourself fully with the relevant sections before programming the receiver. (This table is for
quick reference purposes only, and does not show the full details.)
