STAM-IRS
stam-irs_en 04/13
STAM-IRS is a dedicated server to be used with the STAM-2 monitoring station which
enables receiving transmissions sent via telephone line, Ethernet network (TCP/IP) or GSM
network (SMS and CLIP).
Note: The STAM-2 monitoring station must be registered within 31 days of the server
program installation. After expiry of this period of time, the server program will stop
working. You can perform the registration either on the www.stam2.satel.pl web page
or by using the form included in the delivery set. Fax the completed form to the
number ([phone]. After registration, SATEL will send you a license file to
your e-mail address or to the home/business address (by regular mail), as indicated in
the form. Having installed the license file, you will be able to use the server program
without any time limit.

11.5 V.
The STAM-IRS device is delivered complete with:
keys for closing the display door to prevent unauthorized access,
a set of cables, including: device power cable, battery connection cables, RS port
connection cable and card connection cables.
3. First start-up of the system
Prior to the first start-up of the system, carry out the following operations:
1. Connect the base receiver card DB-9 connector to the COM port, using the cable
included in the delivery set.
2. Depending on the type of installed base receiver card, connect the telephone line or
network cable to the card socket.
3. Connect the keyboard to the PS/2 communication port or USB port.
4. Connect the mouse to the USB port.
5. Connect the network cable to the LAN connection port.
6. Connect the external battery, using the delivered cables.
7. Connect the STAM-IRS device to power source, using the delivered cable.
4. Installation of additional modules and cards
Prior to installation of additional modules and cards, make sure that the system
is deenergized.
If it is necessary to connect expansion cards and GSM modules, the following installation
procedure is recommended:
1. Turn off the system power supply.
2. Set addresses of the cards to be additionally installed.
3. Remove the top cover of the device.
4. Unlock the metal rail (shown as item 2 in Fig. 4) and remove it.
5. Install the cards in PCI slots.
6. Using the cables delivered with the expansion card, connect the new card to the one
already installed.
7. Depending on the type of installed card, connect the telephone line or network cable or,
optionally, synoptic board to the card socket.
8. Install GSM modules (see manuals delivered with particular modules).
9. Using suitable cables, connect the GSM modules to the other COM ports. The
connection can be made with the cables available in the DB9F/RJ-KPL cable set,
manufactured by SATEL.

10. Put back the metal rail and lock it.
11. Turn on the system power supply.
5. System programming and configuration
The STAM-2 Client program should be used for programming and configuring the STAM-IRS
system and operating the monitoring station. The program is included free of charge in the
device delivery set. Communication between the program and the system can be effected
locally or remotely. For detailed information on configuration and the STAM-2 Client program
please refer to the manual delivered with the STAM-2 monitoring station.
6. Copying the database
The STAM-2 Client program, "Configuration" window, "Settings" tab, allows you to activate
creating a backup copy of the database. To do so, select the "Active" box, create a suitable
folder where the backup copy is to be saved, enter the access paths to the source folder
(STAM-2 main database) and the target folder (backup copy of database on the spare drive),
and then define the data backup schedule. Thus a backup copy of the database will be
automatically created at a specific time (which can be everyday at a set time or on selected
days at an assigned time). In case of a main drive failure, or loss of the database, the backup
copy will be used as a source for database restore.
7. System recovery
7.1 Operating system failure
In case of the operating system failure, you should proceed as follows:
1. Using a suitable button, switch the device off and then switch it on again.
Note: To be able to perform further operations, you must use the keyboard connected to
STAM-IRS.
2. Using the keyboard arrow keys, select the "System Recovery" option on the system
screen that will be displayed. Further stages of the system restore procedure will be
shown on the screen.
3. When the "Recovery login" appears, type in "root" and press ENTER.
4. Type in "12345" in the "Password" field and press ENTER. It will start the system restore
procedure, which can take about 30 minutes.
5. When the system is restored, the computer will restart.
As the system will be restored with its factory settings, you will have to configure the server
and monitoring station, as well as the receivers connected to it. You must also restore the
station database, using the database backup copy.
7.2 Main drive failure
If a failure of the main drive occurs, do the following:
1. Switch off the device power supply.
2. Remove the top cover of the enclosure and disconnect the defective drive.
3. Install a new disk drive in its place.
4. Switch on the device.
