4 ACU-280 SATEL
1 Introduction
The ACU-280 controller enables expansion of the alarm system by adding the ABAX 2
wireless devices. It can work as:
expander of wireless devices for SATEL alarm control panels:
–INTEGRA and INTEGRA Plus (firmware version 1.20 or newer),
–VERSA, VERSA Plus and VERSA IP (firmware version 1.09 or newer).
module of wireless devices with Modbus RTU interface.
The controller does not support the ABAX wireless devices.
The ABAX 2 system offers two-way communication. All transmissions are acknowledged,
which ensures that the information has been received and makes it possible to check the
presence of devices in the system in real time. Configuration of settings, testing and updating
of the firmware of wireless devices are carried out via radio and, consequently, do not require
removal of their enclosure.
2 Features
Support for up to 48 ABAX 2 wireless devices (the number of supported devices depends
on the configuration).
Support for ABAX 2 wireless keypads:
–up to 4 INT-KWRL2 keypads,
–up to 6 VERSA-KWRL2 keypads.
Support for APT-200 keyfobs (the number of supported keyfobs depends on the
maximum number of control panel users).
AES standard encrypted two-way radio communication in the 868 MHz / 915 MHz
frequency band.
Transmission channel diversity –4 channels for automatic selection of the one that will
enable transmission without interference with other signals in the 868 MHz / 915 MHz
frequency band.
Communication bus for connecting the controller to a SATEL control panel.
RS-485 communication bus for integrating the controller, e.g. with automation or data
acquisition systems [module of wireless devices with Modbus RTU interface].
Controller firmware update capability.
Ability to remotely update the firmware of wireless devices (except for the ASD-250
wireless smoke detector).
Tamper protection against enclosure opening.

INTEGRA Plus control panel.
Switches 1-5 (Fig. 3) are used to set the address when the controller is connected to the
INTEGRA / INTEGRA Plus control panel (in the other operating modes, the settings of
switches 1-5 are irrelevant). Numerical value is assigned to each switch. In OFF position,
the value is 0. Numerical values assigned to individual switches in ON position are presented
in Table 2. The sum of numerical values assigned to switches 1-5 constitutes the address set
in the device. The address must be different than that set in the other devices connected to
the expander bus of the control panel.

If the controller is to be connected to the control panel to which an ABAX 2 / ABAX
controller is already connected, it is recommended that the address to be set in the
new controller be higher than that in the controller already connected to the control
panel.
3.3 RS-485 bus [module of wireless devices with Modbus RTU interface]
The RS-485 bus can integrate the controller with other systems (e.g. automation or data
acquisition systems) to inform the systems on the state of wireless devices and to receive
from them control commands for the controller. The data is transmitted using the Modbus
RTU communications protocol. The controller is a “Slave” type device and it supports two
functions of the protocol:
Read Holding Registers (kod: 0x03 [hex], 03 [dec]) –reading values from one or more
registers.
Write Multiple registers (kod: 0x10 [hex], 16 [dec]) –changing values in one or more
registers.
3.3.1 Table of Modbus RTU protocol registers
In table 3 you will find a list of 2-byte memory registers of the controller used for
communication via the Modbus RTU protocol. You can read the value of all the registers
listed in the table using the “Read Holding Registers” function (“R” symbol). Those registers,
whose value can be changed using the “Write Multiple Registers” function, are marked with
a “W” symbol. 48 registers in each group (e.g. 0x0000 – 0x002F) amount to the maximum
number of devices that the controller can support. The first register in the group is assigned
to the first device on the list of devices supported by the controller. The rest of the registers
are assigned accordingly, each to a subsequent device on the list. The group containing 4
registers which convey information on the keyfobs supported by the controller is
an exception. The “Value” column shows values assumed by the registers in each group.
Inside the square brackets you will find names of columns in which those values are
presented in the ABAX 2 Soft program (see “Devices status”).

Table 3.
4 Installation of the controller
Disconnect power before making any electrical connections.
Be careful during installation to avoid damage to the components located on the
controller electronics board.
4.1 Selecting a mounting location
The controller should be installed indoors, in spaces with normal air humidity. Prior to
installation you should plan the arrangement of all ABAX 2 wireless devices which are to be
operated by the controller. Select the installation place so that these devices are located
within the controller operating range. Remember that thick walls, metal partitions, etc. will
reduce the range of the radio signal. It is recommended that the controller be mounted high
above the floor. This will allow you to get a better range of radio communication and avoid
the risk of the controller being accidentally covered by people moving around the premises.
Installing the device in close vicinity of electrical systems is not recommended, since it can
adversely affect the range of radio signal.

10 ACU-280 SATEL
Several ABAX 2 / ABAX wireless system controllers can work within each other's range.
The number of wireless devices working within each other's operating range depends on the
frequency of periodical communication. The higher the frequency of communication,
the lesser number of devices can work within each other's range.
4.2 Preparing the cabling
Run the cables to be used to connect the controller to the control panel or other devices to
the controller's installation location. For power cables, use flexible conductors with cross-
sectional area of 0.5-0.75 mm2. In order to connect the controller to the RS-485
communication bus, use the twisted-pair type of cable (e.g. UTP –unshielded twisted pair).
Do not lay the cables in immediate vicinity of the low-voltage electrical network wires,
especially those used for supplying the high-power equipment (such as electric motors).
4.3 Installation of enclosure
The description below applies to the enclosure in which the ACU-280 controller is sold.
1. Open the controller enclosure (Fig. 4). The enclosure opening tool, shown in the
illustration, is included in the detector delivery set.
2. Place the enclosure base against the wall and mark location of the mounting holes.
Set the enclosure so that the cable entry opening is situated at the bottom of the
enclosure or at the base.
Fig. 4. Opening the enclosure.
3. Drill holes for wall plugs (anchors) in the wall.
4. Make the cable entry opening at the base. The opening diameter must be larger than
5 mm. The finished opening must not have sharp edges.

SATEL ACU-280 11
5. Run the cables through the prepared opening (power cables, cables connecting the
controller with the control panel or other devices, etc.).
6. Using wall plugs and screws, secure the enclosure base to the wall. The wall plugs
delivered with the device are intended for concrete, brick, etc. For other types of surface
(drywall, styrofoam), use the appropriately selected wall plugs. When installed, the device
must withstand a pull-off force of at least 50 N.
Fig. 5. Installation of enclosure base.
4.4 Setting DIP switches
Using the DIP switches (see “DIP-switches” p. 6):
1. Define the controller operating mode (switches 9 and 10).
2. Set the controller's address if the controller is to be connected to the INTEGRA /
INTEGRA Plus control panel (switches 1-5).
4.5 Connecting the wires
Protect the wiring against contact with sharp edges or else they can damage the
insulation of cables.
4.5.1 Expander of wireless devices for SATEL alarm control panels
Depending on the control panel to which the controller is to be connected:
INTEGRA / INTEGRA Plus: connect the CKM, DTM, CKE, DTE and COM terminals to the
corresponding terminals of the control panel communication buses (Fig. 6).

If you use the twisted-pair type of cable, remember that the DTM and CKM / CKE and DTE
(clock and data) signals must not be sent through one pair of twisted conductors.
The conductors must be run in one cable.
4.5.2 Module of wireless devices with Modbus RTU interface
For connecting the RS-485 bus, connect the A and B terminals with the corresponding lines
of the bus, as shown in figure 8. 100 Ω(
±
10%) resistors should be installed at the beginning
and at the end of the bus. Connect the COM terminals of all devices connected to the bus
with an additional wire. The maximum number of “Slave” type devices (e.g. ACU-280) that
can be connected to the bus is n = 247.

SATEL ACU-280 13
Fig. 8. Method of connecting the controller to the RS-485 bus (RT= 100 Ω (
±

4.6 Connecting the power supply and starting the controller
1. Connect the power cables to the +12V and COM terminals. The controller may be
powered directly from the control panel or from a power supply unit with current limitation
up to 3 A.
2. Replace the cover.
3. Turn the power on. The LED indicator should come on.
If the controller works as expander of wireless devices for SATEL alarm control
panels, run the identification function in the control panel (see the control panel
installer manual). The controller will be identified as ACU-100.
5 ABAX 2 Soft program
The ABAX 2 Soft program enables configuration and diagnostics of the wireless system
when the controller works as module of wireless devices with Modbus RTU interface.
The program can also be used for diagnostics of the system, when the controller works as
expander for a SATEL control panel.
You can download the ABAX 2 Soft program from www.satel.eu website.

Controller info
Module type –controller type.
Version –firmware version of the controller.

16 ACU-280 SATEL
Serial number –serial number of the controller.
Communication period –define the time intervals at which wireless devices are to
communicate with the controller. Periodical communication can take place every 12, 24 or
36 seconds. During periodical communication, the devices inform the controller about their
status, and the controller sends commands to the devices (switches the detectors into
active/passive mode, starts/ends test mode, changes configuration of the devices, etc.).
The communication period has effect on the level of energy consumption by wireless
devices: the less frequent is the communication, the lower is the energy consumption.
For the battery-operated devices it means longer battery life. Moreover, when the
communication takes place less frequently, more wireless devices can work within each
other's operating range.
If you enable the “ECO” option for a wireless device, periodical communication
between that device and the controller will take place every 3 minutes
(the “Communication period” parameter will have no effect on the device operation).
Some information and commands need to be sent immediately. Therefore, additional
communication takes place when the device reports tamper, when the detector reports
alarm, etc.
No automatic update of wireless devices firmware –if this option is enabled, firmware of
the wireless devices registered to the controller is not updated automatically
(see “Updating the firmware of ABAX 2 wireless devices” p. 56).
MODBUS
RS-485 –operation parameters of the RS-485 port. If you select OFF (default value), the port
will be disabled. If you select any of the data transfer rates, the port will be enabled.
If the port is enabled:
it is possible to integrate the controller with other systems (see „RS-485 bus” p. 7).
The Modbus RTU protocol is used for communication.
control inputs are not supported.
Parity –type of data transmission check. Default: „None”.
Stop bits –stop bit length: 1, 1,5 or 2. Default: 1.
MODBUS address –individual address of the controller on the RS-485 bus. You can enter
values from 1 to 247.
5.4 Devices
Fig. 13. ABAX 2 Soft program: “Devices” tab.

SATEL ACU-280 17
Name –individual device name (up to 16 characters). You can enter a name that will make it
easier to figure out the location or intended purpose of the device.
S/N –serial number of the device.
Type –type of the wireless device. If the device takes up more than 1 position on the list,
the “^” character is displayed in consecutive positions.
Output –no configuration possible (the controller does not have outputs indicating the status
of wireless devices).
Input –no configuration possible (the controller does not have control inputs for wireless
devices).
ARU –parameter available for the wireless device, if the ARU-200 radio signal repeater is
registered to the controller. It defines whether the device is to communicate with the
controller directly or via the selected ARU-200 radio signal repeater (a few ARU-200 radio
signal repeaters can be registered to the controller). Leave this field blank if the device is
to communicate directly with the controller. If the device is to communicate with the
controller via the radio signal repeater, enter the number of position occupied by the radio
signal repeater on the list of wireless devices (the radio signal repeater takes up two
positions on the device list –enter the number of the first of them).
Filter –the number of consecutive communication periods without connection between the
device and the controller after which loss of communication with the device will be
reported. You can enter values from 0 to 255. Entering 0 disables the check for device
presence in the system.
If the system is to meet the EN50131 requirements for Grade 2, loss of communication
with the device must be reported within 20 minutes at the latest. Therefore, when
entering the number take into account the frequency of periodical communication
(“Communication period” parameter or “ECO” option).
Configuration –for some devices, you can configure additional parameters and options
(see “Configuring devices using the ABAX 2 Soft program” p. 47).
Temp.corr. –you can correct the temperature information sent by the device by up to
±3.5°C.
ECO –if this option is enabled, periodical communication with the device takes place every
3 minutes. Thus the battery life can be extended up to four times.
Remember that with the “ECO” option enabled for:
detector –delay between the change of control input state and switch-over of the
detector operating mode (active/passive) can be up to three minutes,
ASP-215 siren –delay in starting / stopping the signaling can be up to three minutes.
