2 ATS1170 One Door RAS Programming Guide
Introduction
ATS1170 is a low cost, compact remote arming station. ATS1170 performs all
necessary functions to control the operation of a single door. It will operate online
in a control panel system or as a stand-alone device with only an external 12 V
DC supply. Even a combination of both is possible: normally online and offline if
communication to the control panel is interrupted.
ATS1170 can be programmed to operate with one Wiegand or one magnetic
stripe card reader together with a simple Request to Exit push. ATS1170 can
hold up to 15 user card numbers. For offline programming DIP switch A must be
on —see “Basic setup and programming for offline access control” on page 8 for
offline programming.

Programming cards
Programming cards into the ATS1170 user database in online mode
Once the card format and type has been established, a card number can be
entered into the ATS1170 database. Select menu 10–Learn Mode to enable card
programming. Turn the learn mode option on.
Once this is done there is a timeout period of four minutes if no programming is
taking place. If this happens, turn on the learn mode again.
Adding a card to the onboard user database
Badge the card four times at the card reader to program a card in to the
database.
Note: No more than a maximum of three seconds is allowed between badges or
else the badging process must start again.
On the first badge:
•If the card number is not in the control panel user database, seven beeps
(error) will sound, otherwise, two beeps (OK) will sound.
On the second and third badges, two beeps will sound.
On the fourth badge, and if the database is not full:
•The card number is entered into the ATS1170 database.
•One long beep followed by two short beeps will sound.
If the database is full:
•The card number is discarded.
•Three long beeps will sound
Removing a card from the onboard user database
To remove a card from the ATS1170’s database, the card format and type must
match the card. Ensure Learn Mode is on –see menu 10 of ATS1170.
To remove a card, badge it six times. One long beep is sounded when the card is
removed from the onboard user database. This does not affect in any way the
ATS control panel user database.
When in the online mode, ATS1170 is under control from the ATS control panel
user database. For a card to get access granted in this mode, the following three
steps must be performed.
Programming the ATS control panel to accept the card system code
See Advisor Master programming guide, installer menu 20 and installer menu 25.
Program the ATS control panel to accept the user cards/codes
See Advisor Master Manager Guide, user menu 14.

ATS1170 One Door RAS Programming Guide 7
Program users to a valid door group for door number/RAS number
See Advisor Master Manager Guide, user menu 20.
Beeping code overview
•1 long + 2 short = Card programmed
•1 long = Card removed
•2 short = Card read OK
•3 long = Database is full
•7 short = Error/not in database
When the ATS1170 is online, cards can only be entered into ATS1170 onboard
database by programming via menu 10–Learn Mode. Also, when the ATS1170 is
online, the onboard database is not used for access control. Granting access is
controlled by the control panel user database. The onboard database only comes
into use for access control when ATS1170 loses communication with the control
panel, or when in permanent offline mode.
DIP switch A on ATS1170 will have no effect in the online mode, however leave it
in the Off position.
This switch is only ever used in the offline mode to program cards. See “Basic
setup and programming for offline access control” on page 8 for offline mode
card programming.
Normal door operations will be performed when in the programming mode. When
programming cards in online mode, normal door access control functions apply.
So if a user is valid, the access granted will be given even though you are
programming the card into the onboard database.
One short beep is sounded by a Wiegand card reader each time a card is
badged, in addition to the number of beeps listed in the programming
instructions. This is because the first beep is generated by the Wiegand card
reader indicating it has read the card.
Online programming can be exited in three ways:
•Turn it off via menu 10–Learn Mode.
•Time out —after four minutes of no use while in ATS1170 menu.
•Just logout of the ATS1170 menu.
Additional Information
ATS1170 menu 12–Last Card Used

To return to the control panel installer menu, press 0 (zero) followed by Enter at
the main menu.

•LED 1: Door Unlocked + disarmed
•LED 2: Armed
Basic setup and programming for offline access control
Should the control panel ever fail or the communication fail between the control
panel and ATS1170, the ATS1170 module has the capacity to continue operating
as a standalone unit with its own power supply. In this offline mode, cards
programmed into the ATS1170 onboard database will be used to determine
access control, while those cards stored in the control panel database cannot be
used. Bearing this in mind it is important to take due consideration when
selecting those cards which will make up the 15 cards in the off-line onboard
database. They will be the only users who have access when the control panel
user database is no longer accessible. During this time the integrity of the
security system is under suspicion.

ATS1170 One Door RAS Programming Guide 9
Initial connections
Connect the 12 V DC power supply, the card reader and Request to Exit buttons
if required as per this guide. Ten seconds after power-up, the Tx LED will flash
once per second indicating ATS1170 is operating. The once per second flash
rate is indicating that ATS1170 has gone into offline mode with no connection to
the control panel databus.
Card format and card type
Set DIP switch C to the Off position for Wiegand format and On position for
magnetic stripe format.
For magnetic stripe format, DIP switch B will be in the Off position for ATS type
cards and the On position for Financial Institution cards.
Off-line programming mode
To enter offline programming mode set DIP switch A to the On position. This is
the only way to program cards (Learn Mode) while in offline mode.
Programming cards into the ATS1170 user database in offline mode
•Normal door operations will continue when in the programming mode
provided valid card numbers are in the onboard database.
•Ensure DIP switch A is set to Off when programming is complete, otherwise
ATS1170 will always be in “Learn Mode”while ATS1170 is offline.
•One short beep is sounded by a Wiegand card reader each time a card is
badged, in addition to the number of beeps listed in the programming
instructions. This is because the first beep is generated by the Wiegand card
reader indicating it has read the card.
Adding a card to the onboard user database
Badge the card four times at the card reader to program a card in to the
database.
Note: No more than a maximum of three seconds is allowed between badges or
else the badging process must start again.
On the first badge:
•If the card is not in the ATS1170 onboard user database, seven beeps (error)
will sound, otherwise, two beeps (OK) will sound.
On the second and third badges, two beeps will sound.
On the fourth badge, and if the database is not full:
•The card number is entered into the ATS1170 database.
•One long beep followed by two short beeps will sound.
If the database is full:
•The card number is discarded.
•Three long beeps will sound.

10 ATS1170 One Door RAS Programming Guide
Removing a card from the onboard user database:
To remove a card from the ATS1170 database, the card format and type must
match the card and DIP switch A is set to On.
To remove a card, badge it six times. One long beep is sounded when the card is
removed from the onboard user database.
