RED Status LED FLASHING (Automatic battery
and radio strength test)
The auto-test routine is very important. The
Roboguard sends an ‘auto-test’ radio signal to the
keypad every 20 minutes. Should a guard fail to
report in, the AI will indicate this by flashing the
red status LED. To establish which Roboguard is
reporting the status condition and to reset the
status LED you must do the following.
NOTE: Status indicates potential
communication problems that may be due to
bad radio reception, battery problems or faulty
TX or CPU PIRs.
1. Press and release the status button (Status
LED “ON”, AI is now in Status condition
display mode)
2. The zone LED for the Roboguard that has
reported Status will be on guard.
3. Press and release all ON LED’s so only the
red Status LED is “ON”.
4. Press and release the Status button (LED off)
or do nothing as the keypad will time out and
exit automatically.
5. Determine what is causing the Roboguard to
fail auto-test and correct the problem.
THIS 24HR ZONE IS THE HEART BEAT
OF THE PROGRAMMED GUARDS AND
WILL REMAIN OPEN CIRCUIT, UNTIL
THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED.

Installation Procedure
The installation involves (A) mounting, wiring, and
(B) programming guards.
(A) Mounting and Wiring
Mount the Alarm Interface and wiring close to the
alarm panel and is high as possible for good RF
(Radio) Range.
(B) Roboguard Programming
1. To enter Roboguard programming mode: hold
down the tamper button the red tamper LED
will switch ON. You are now in Roboguard
programming mode (let go of the button now).
Guard LED’s that already have Roboguards
programmed into them will now be ON.
2. Press and release the button for the desired
guard to be programmed (only the desired
zone LED and the tamper LED should
be ON).
3. Depress and release the tamper lever on
the Roboguard to send a tamper signal to
the Alarm Interface.
4. The Alarm Interface
will extinguish all the
LED’s momentarily,
and then all the
LED’s will flash.
5. Press any guard
button to reset, the
appropriate guard
light should be on
solid and can now be
tested by triggering
the Roboguard. If the Alarm interface is not
yet connected to the alarm panel, you can
see the trigger, as the guard light will start
to flash after triggering and then you will
hear the relay .
6. To erase a Roboguard enter Roboguard
programming mode, then select the guard to
be erased and press the status button. Press
any guard button to reset.
7. Continue as above until all your guards are
programmed.
(C) General Operation
The Alarm Interface is used to interface up to four
Roboguards.
GREEN Guard LEDs (zone control and intruder
detection)
Each of the guards can be individually switched
on or off. Switching off does NOT disable the
status or the tamper monitoring. If the green led
for the guard is OFF then the zone is disabled.
If it is ON then the guard is ON and not triggered.
If it is FLASHING then the guard is ON and has
been triggered. Pushing the zone button will
change the state of the led from OFF to ON and
back again or from FLASHING to OFF to ON.
NOTE: Guards which do not have Roboguards
programmed will not function.
RED Tamper LED FLASHING (Tamper
Detection Triggered)
If a Roboguard’s is battery cover is removed, a
tamper signal will automatically be sent ,and
permanently flash the red tamper LED. To
establish which Roboguard was tampered with
and to reset the tamper detect LED you must
do the following:
1. Press and release the tamper button (tamper
LED on, AI is now in tamper detected display
mode)
2. The guard LED for the Roboguard that has
been tampered with will be solid ON.
3. Press and release all ON LED’s so only
the red tamper LED is left on.
4. Press and release the tamper button (LED
off) or do nothing as the keypad will time
out and exit automatically.
5. Determine what caused the Tamper to
trigger and correct the problem.
