3.4 CONNECT EXTERNAL BUTTONS TO THE INPUTS (OPTIONALLY)
It is possible to connect external (potential free) push buttons or output
signals to the inputs. Insert the 2 wires of the sensor through the hole in the
enclosure and insert them in the two connectors of input 1 (press on the
green pins for connecting the wires). It does not matter which wire is
connected to which connector.
As default the input is programmed as Normally Open (NO) contact. This
means the input is triggered if the input is closed for at least 1 second. In
case the contact is Normally Closed (NC), see paragraph 5.3. If the sensor
needs to be activated for a longer period before triggering an alarm, see 5.4.
- A second external sensor can be connected to input 2.
3.5 NETWORK CONNECTION AND PROGRAM MODE
After placing the batteries (and external power) the Mobeye Panic Button will
search for the network. The outside LED flashes green and red. This process
normally takes 10-30 seconds, in a new device this can take some minutes.
When the network has been established the LED will first blink green rapidly
and next stay green (or flashes 1 sec. on/1 sec. off in case the unit has not
been configured yet).
In a battery-operated unit a time-out occurs after 3 minutes,
after which the communication module switches off in order
to save the batteries. In this low power mode the LED flashes
once per 3 seconds. It will search for network connection
once it needs to send notifications. It can also been forced to
establish a network connection by re-inserting the batteries
or pressing the button at the back for 5 seconds.
If the Panic Button is connected to an external power supply, it has
continuous network connection and is permanently in program mode.
