4. Installing the controller
Disconnect power before making any electrical connections.
The electrical installation must be provided with a 2-pole disconnector.
Be careful not to make any damage to the antenna printed on the controller
electronics board.
The controller should be installed indoors, in spaces with normal air humidity. Before starting
installation, it is advisable to plan out the arrangement of all wireless devices which are to be
operated by the controller. Select the installation place so that these devices are within the
controller range. Remember that thick walls, metal partitions etc. may diminish the range of
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 obstructed by personnel moving around the premises. Installing the
controller in the immediate vicinity of electrical installations is not recommended, as it may
cause malfunctioning of the device.
1. Loosen the cover locking screws and remove the enclosure cover.
2. Remove the fixing screws of electronics board and take out the electronics board.
3. Make openings for controller power cables and inputs / outputs cables in the enclosure
base. The openings must not have sharp edges.

6 MTX-300 SATEL
4. Run the cables through the opening made. Nominal cross-section area of the power
conductors shall be ≥0.5 mm
2
.
5. Using wall plugs (screw anchors) and screws, secure the enclosure base to the wall. Use
the wall plugs (screw anchors) suitable for the specific mounting surface (concrete wall,
drywall, etc.). The screw anchors must ensure adequate mechanical strength.
6. Using screws, install the electronics board in the enclosure.
7. Screw the wires to the terminals on the electronics board.
8. Power on the controller. The device must be supplied from a limited power source.
9. Program the controller (register wireless devices in the controller and configure them).
10.Replace the cover and lock it with screws.
5. Installing wireless devices
Do not install the wireless detectors and sirens permanently before registering them in the
controller. After registering a wireless device, you can check the level of radio signal received
by the controller from that device (see section “Diagnostics” p. 20). This will enable you to
select the installation location which is optimal in terms of radio communication. If the radio
signal level at the planned installation place is too low, select another location. Sometimes it
is sufficient to move the device ten or twenty centimeters to obtain a significant improvement
of signal quality.
For detailed description of how to install the wireless devices, please refer to the manuals
attached to respective devices.
6. Programming the controller
The controller can be programmed by using:
buttons available on the electronics board (service mode),
computer with MTX SOFT program installed, connected to controller RS-232 (TTL) port.
When the service mode is on or communication with MTX SOFT program is in
progress, you cannot control the sirens by using inputs and tamper alarm
signaling on the sirens is blocked.
6.1 Service code
Before starting programming, authorization is required by means of the service code. The
code consists of 4 characters. By default, the 1111 code is preprogrammed. You should
change the factory code as soon as possible. The new code may consist of digits and letters
from A to F.

6.4 Description of parameters and options
Output cutoff time – time during which the relay output will be on. You can program 8
different cutoff times ranging from 1 second to 99 minutes 59 seconds [minutes:seconds].
Additionally, 4 non-editable cutoff times are available.
Maximum no-communication time – if the period of no communication with a detector or
siren exceeds the preprogrammed time, the FTR output will turn on (“Presence control”
option must be enabled for the detector or siren). You can program the time within the
range of 20 minutes to 49 hours 50 minutes [hours:minutes].
After a new “Maximum no-communication time” value has been programmed in the
service mode, a restart of the presence control function will follow.
Maximum signaling time – signaling will be stopped automatically by the siren after the
preprogrammed time has elapsed (even if the input is still on). The parameter is to be
programmed individually for each siren. You can program the time within the range of 10
seconds to 3 minutes [minutes:seconds].
NO / NC – inputs / outputs can work as NO (normally open) or NC (normally closed).
Priority – option available for inputs. If the option is enabled, the input will always trigger
signaling, i.e. even when signaling triggered by the other input is taking place (that
signaling will be stopped). If the option is disabled, the input will not trigger any signaling,
as long as signaling triggered by the other input is taking place.
Presence control – if the option is enabled, availability of detector / siren is monitored (see
“Maximum no-communication time”).
Name – individual name of the input, output or wireless device. You can only program the
name using the MTX S OFT program.

SATEL MTX-300 15
6.5 Description of signaling
6.5.1 Acoustic signaling
Sound A – two sound frequencies (1450 Hz/2100 Hz) alternating within 1 second
().
Sound B – sound with rising frequency (from 1450 Hz to 2100 Hz) within 1 second
().
Sound C – sound with falling frequency (from 2100 Hz to 1450 Hz) within 1 second
().
Sound D – sound with smoothly rising and falling frequency (1450 Hz – 2100 Hz – 1450 Hz)
within 1 second ( ).
Fire signal – intermittent sound with 1450 Hz frequency.
Arming / disarming signal – triggering the input will trigger an arming signal (1 squawk),
end of triggering – a disarming signal (2 squawks) / alarm clearance signal (4 squawks – if,
when the input was triggered, another input became triggered, which trigger alarm
signaling).
6.5.2 Optical signaling
Alarm signal – flashing fast (if its fire alarm: flashing fast for one second – one second
pause – flashing fast for one second – one second pause, etc.).
Arming / disarming signal – triggering the input will trigger an arming signal (1 flash), end of
triggering – a disarming signal (2 flashes) / alarm clearance signal (4 flashes – if, when the
input was triggered, another input became triggered, which trigger alarm signaling).
6.6 Adding keyfob, detector or siren
6.6.1 Using controller buttons
1. Run the function and then function.
2. Within 30 seconds (time countdown is shown on the display), press a keyfob button or
open the tamper switch on detector or siren.
3. Part of the serial number of device from which transmission has been received will appear
on the display. Press the button to see next digits of the serial number. A dot is
displayed after the last digit of the serial number.
If transmission from an already registered device is received, suitable information will
be displayed and the countdown will be restarted.
4. If the serial number jest correct, press the button on the controller (when adding
a keyfob, you can press the keyfob button instead of the button and thus skip the step
5).
5. When is displayed, press the button again.
6. This will automatically start the function that allows you to configure the device ( -
keyfob, - detector, - siren ).
6.6.2 Using MTX soft program
1. Click on the button. This will open the “New device” window.

16 MTX-300 SATEL
2. Press the keyfob button or open the tamper switch in detector or siren. Information on the
device from which transmission has been received will be displayed: device type and its
serial number.
If transmission is received from an already registered device, suitable information will
be displayed. Click on the “Retry” button to proceed with adding the device.
3. If the type and serial number of the device are correct, press the keyfob button again after
the “Repeat” message is displayed, or open again the tamper switch in detector or siren.
A message will be displayed to inform you that the device has been added.
4. Click on the “OK” button to close the window. You can also press the “Next” button to
proceed at once to adding another wireless device.
6.7 Configuring keyfobs
Having added a keyfob, define which controller outputs and how are to respond to pressing
a button (combination of buttons). You can always assign one controller output to a button
(combination of buttons). It is possible to assign up to eight outputs. Each next output to be
controlled by a button is an additional assignment. The limit of additional assignments is 100.
For example, if the button controls 5 outputs, this means that 4 additional assignments have
been used up. After the limit has been used up, programming any additional assignments will
be impossible (in the case of programming using controller buttons, the message
will be displayed).
When configuring the keyfob you can decide that it is always to operate in the same way as
the keyfob previously configured. Such a solution makes it possible to reduce the time
intended for configuring keyfobs. If the keyfob has no own settings, but operates in exactly
the same way as another keyfob, you will be informed of it by the [+number] message
on the controller display, and in the MTX SOFT program – by the keyfob number displayed in
the “Config.” column.
6.7.1 Using controller buttons
Programming individual settings
1. Run the function.
2. Select the keyfob you want to configure and press the button.

4. Select the keyfob button to be configured and press the button.
5. Select the output to be controlled using keyfob button, and then press the button.
6. Select how the output is to respond to pressing a keyfob button ( - no response,
- output will be on, - output will be off, - output status will change to
opposite, - output will be on as long as keyfob button is pressed,
[minutes:seconds] – output will be on for a selected period of time (the dot after seconds
means that this time setting can be edited using functions )), and then press the
button.
7. If the button is to control several outputs, repeat steps 5-6.
8. Repeat steps 4-7 to configure the other keyfob buttons.
Starting the function in the event of keyfob whose operation copies another
keyfob (of which you are informed by the [+number] message) will save
individual settings based on the settings of copied keyfob. If, after the
function is started, the message is displayed for a while, the settings cannot

5. Double click on the field in “Presence c.” column to enable / disable detector presence
control (symbol “x” indicates that the control is enabled).
6.9 Configuring sirens
Define for a newly added siren:
which controller inputs will trigger signaling,
whether the controller is to supervise the siren presence,
maximum signaling time.
6.9.1 Using controller buttons
1. Run the function.
2. Select the siren to be configured and press the button.
3. Run the function and then the function.
4. Select the input which is to trigger signaling ( - none, - input IN1, - input IN2,
- inputs IN1 and IN2) and then press the button.
5. Run the function.
6. Define whether siren presence is to be controlled ( - yes, - no) and press the
button.
6.9.2 Using MTX soft program
1. Click on the “Inputs/sirens” tab.
2. Click on the selected siren.
3. Double click on the field in the “IN1” column to define whether the input IN1 is to trigger
signaling or not (symbol “x” means that the input will trigger signaling).
4. Double click on the field in the “IN2” column to define whether the input IN2 is to trigger
signaling or not (symbol “x” means that the input will trigger signaling).
5. Enter the maximum signaling time in the “Time” column.
6. Double click on the field in the “Presence c.” column to enable / disable the siren
presence control (symbol “x” means that the control is enabled).
6.10 Programming signaling parameters
The signaling parameters (signaling method, signaling priority) should be defined when
configuring the inputs. Each of the controller inputs may trigger different type of signaling.
