2 ADD-200 SATEL
The ADD-200 detector detects changes of light intensity (dusk sensor) as well as changes of
temperature (temperature sensor). It is designed to work within the ABAX 2 two-way wireless
system. The detector is supported by:
ACU-220 / ACU-280 controller,
ARU-200 repeater.
1 Features
Dusk sensor:
–light intensity measurement range from 2 lx to 250 lx,
–possibility to select one of 16 detection thresholds,
–immunity to short and accidental changes of light intensity.
Temperature sensor:
–temperature measurement range from -30°C to +70°C,
–programmable temperature threshold.
Encrypted two-way radio communication in the 868 MHz frequency band (AES standard).
Transmission channel diversity –automatic selection of the one of 4 channels that will
enable transmission without interference with other signals in the 868 MHz frequency
band.
Remote update of detector firmware.
Remote configuration.
LED indicator.
“ECO” option for longer battery life.
Battery status control.
Weatherproof enclosure of high mechanical strength.
2 Description
Radio communication
The detector connects to the controller at regular time intervals to provide information about
its state (periodical communication). Additional communication will take place when light
intensity drops below the threshold / rises back above the threshold.
Dusk sensor
Figure 1 shows operation of the dusk sensor. On the timeline the T time delay is presented
(in operating mode T = 3 min, in configuring mode T = 3 s). Illustrated with the letter H light
intensity hysteresis and time delay make the sensor immune to short and accidental changes
of light intensity. Table 1 presents light intensity values for 16 detection thresholds of the
sensor. For description of how to configure the sensor, please refer to the ABAX 2 controller
manual.
Information about the light intensity drop below the defined threshold (alarm) and the light
intensity restoration above the threshold (alarm restore) is sent instantly.

Temperature sensor
You can program one of two temperature detection thresholds: low (L) or high (H).
The detector will alert of the threshold being exceeded if the temperature:
drops below the programmed value in the case of the low (L) threshold,
rises above the programmed value in the case of the high (H) threshold.
Information about the current temperature and threshold being exceeded is sent during
periodical communication.

Energy saving mode (ECO)
If you want to prolong the battery life, you can enable in the detector the “ECO” option. When
the “ECO” option is enabled, the periodical communication takes place every 3 minutes.
This can increase the battery life by as much as four times.
Test mode
The test mode facilitates testing of the dusk sensor. When in test mode, the sensor will react
quicker to changes in light intensity. For how to start and end the test mode, refer to the
ABAX 2 controller manual.
LED
The LED is ON for about 5 seconds from inserting the battery to indicate the warm-up of the
detector. When in test mode, the LED indicates periodical communication –short flash
(80 milliseconds).
Battery status control
When the battery voltage is below 2.75 V, information about low battery is sent during each
transmission.
Electronics board
Do not remove the electronics board from the enclosure to avoid damage to the
components on the board.

3 Installation
Do not install the detector in places where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
Excessive temperature may cause damage to the detector or its components
(e.g. dusk sensor, battery).

SATEL ADD-200 5
There is a danger of battery explosion when using a different battery than
recommended by the manufacturer, or handling the battery improperly.
Be particularly careful during installation and replacement of the battery.
The manufacturer is not liable for the consequences of incorrect installation of
the battery.
The used batteries must not be discarded, but should be disposed of in
accordance with the existing rules for environment protection.
The figures below only show the detector installed vertically, but the detector may be installed
in any position (position of the detector has no effect on the operation of the sensors).
1. Install the battery and add the detector to the wireless system (see ABAX 2 controller
manual). The sticker with the serial number required for registration of the detector in the
system can be found on the electronics board.
If the ABAX 2 controller is connected to the VERSA series control panel, add and
configure the ADD-200 detector using the DLOADX program.
2. Press the gasket (included with the detector) into the groove of the enclosure cover.
The gasket must fill the entire groove, so that both of the gasket ends touch each other
(Fig. 3). Do not shorten the gasket –it is fitted to the length of the groove.
It is recommended that the ends of the gasket are situated on the bottom of the
enclosure after the cover is replaced.
3. Replace the cover and fasten it to the enclosure base with 4 screws (Fig. 4).
4. Place the detector at the location of its future installation.
5. Check the level of signal received from the detector by the ABAX 2 controller. If the signal
level is lower than 40%, select another place for installation. Sometimes, it is sufficient to
shift the device ten or twenty centimeters.
The ARF-200 tester allows you to test the level of radio signal at the location of future
installation without having to place the detector on-site.
6. Use screws to secure the enclosure base to the mounting surface. Select appropriate wall
plugs based on the type of the mounting surface (different for concrete or brick wall,
different for plaster wall, etc.).

7. Configure the detector settings (sensitivity of dusk sensor [detection threshold],
temperature threshold parameters [threshold type: high / low, temperature value and
tolerance], etc. –see ABAX 2 controller manual).
8. Start the test mode (see ABAX 2 controller manual).
9. Check whether the dusk sensor works properly. When tested, the entire detector must be
covered, e.g. by a cardboard box or a thick and dark piece of fabric.
10.End the test mode.
