Velo

Installation manual

Last updating August 27 2024

INTRO

VELO is a dual technology wireless curtain effect detector (IR + MW). The planned installation is horizontally on the upper door jamb and/ or window, indoor or outdoor , with anti-masking active on IR. It has a range of up to 3 meters with installation height of 2.3 m. Easy-fix mounting bracket for easy installation. The battery is preinstalled, has a life of up to 5 years.

OPERATION

VELO works under the system D’AVINCI with a range of up to 1500 meters (in free space) by connecting, via radio, directly to the Central Lisa or Repeater Automa. The communication is of the type bidirectional (transmission/reception) with the indication of confirmation of receipt and command. In the case of obstacles such as walls, objects, etc. the range is reduced.

The communication protocol, like the connections between all the components of the system, is the GENIO<, encrypted and protected from interception.
The sensor configuration is via D’AVINCI app , which can be downloaded for free from IOS and Android.

Antimask active on IR for lens contact blinding.
Configuration of the IR sensitivity on three levels, warning LEDs for alarm.
The detector operates on two frequencies in the 868 MHz band, automatically and dynamically positioned on the one that is free or less interfered.

 

DEVICE CONFIGURATION IN THE D’AVINCI SYSTEM

Warning. Before adding a device:

    1. Install the app D’AVINCI, available for iOS / Android, on your smartphone.
    2. Create a account . Add a D’AVINCI control panel, save the necessary settings and create at least a room.
    3. Make sure the Control Panel is turned on and has Internet access via Ethernet.
    4. Make sure that the Control Panel is off and not running updates by checking its status via the mobile application.

To add a device to the control panel, in the D’AVINCI app  1

  1. Select the Tab Device 2  
  2.  Click on Add Device 
  3.  Name the device
  4. Insert the serial number of the device shown on the label  or click on icon  to scan the code via the app
  5. Select the associated Room for the device
  6. Click on Add – a countdown will start
  7. Open the cover and remove the tab from the battery, so as to power the device (see installation phase of the device).The detector light will start flashing red.When paired with the control panel, the detector will appear in the list of devices in the AVINCI app.Then it will be necessary to close it , to allow the calibration phase to be carried out, with the blinking yellow LED for about a minute. When the warning lamp is switched off, the device is ready to detect movements and transmit them to the control panel.The connection request to the Control Panel is transmitted for a short period of time as soon as the device is switched on.

    If the connection to the AVINCI control panel fails, turn off the detector for 5 seconds and repeat the procedure.                                                                                                                                                                                               

     1 Installer privileges are required.
    2 To start the configuration procedure, the device must be within the radio communication zone of the associated Control Panel.

DETECTOR INSTALLATION

Make sure you have selected the ideal installation location according to the guidelines in this manual.
The installation location of the sensor affects the connection with the control panel and any obstacles between the devices can block the transmission of the radio signal. Such obstacles can be walls, floors or large objects.

Lever with a screwdriver to open the lid

Lift the lid.

Remove the tab from the battery

 Close the lid

Fix the bracket

Attach the detector to the bracket

Do not install the detector:

  • In unprotected areas or premises (outdoors).
  • Near metal objects or mirrors that may attenuate or block the radio signal.
  • Next to other radio devices (gsm/wireless router/etc.) to avoid mutual interference
  • In environments where temperature or humidity values may exceed the limits specified in the Technical Specifications.

OPERATING SETTINGS

The detector settings can be changed in the D’AVINCI app (Installer privileges are required):

  1. Go to device tab
  2. Select the device from the list.
  3. Go to settings by clicking on the icon

DEVICE NAME
Detector name, displayed in the device list and as notification text. It can contain up to 24 characters.

ROOM
Selecting the virtual room to which the device is assigned the environment name appears in notifications.
Note: Changing this parameter requires Administrator privileges

METHOD OF ALARM
It shows how the detector reacts to alarms.

Instantaneous: the detector, when the system is in place, immediately signals the alarm.

Delayed: the detector, with the system inserted, signals the alarm after a time counter (see input/ output delay).

Input delay: 5 to 120 seconds.
Entry delay is the time that the user has to disconnect the system after entering the protected area.
Output delay: 5 to 120 seconds.
Exit delay is the time that the user has to leave the protected area after insertion.

ContinuedThe detector adds input/output delays of devices that detected an alarm before it. When activated individually, it immediately triggers the alarm.

STAY MODE ARMED
Pairing the detector to night mode. This type of insertion allows, for example, to insert the perimeter area and allows people to move freely in other areas.

  • Input delay in stay mode: 5 to 120 seconds.
    Entry delay is the time that the user has to disconnect the system after entering the protected area.
  • Output delay in stay mode: 5 to 120 seconds.
    Exit delay is the time that the user has to leave the protected area after insertion.

ALWAYS ACTIVE

If this option is enabled, the detector is always armed, detects the alarm condition and sends the signal to the Control Panel.

SENSITIVITY
Motion detector sensitivity level (infrared)

– High
-Normal
-Low

TIME OF INHIBITION
time interval when the sensor does not detect the alarm condition
– None

SOUND ON THE ALARM
Allows you to activate the siren in case of alarm signal, if the system is inserted.

SIREN ON A TAMPER
Allows you to activate the siren in case the detector is in the tamper state (tamper anti-opening or anti-tampering open).

ACTIVE SIREN IN DISGUISE
Activates the siren in case of masking signal.

NUMBER OF ALARMS FOR SELF-EXCLUSION
Allows you to enter the number of alarms for the detector, during the same insertion, which cause the automatic exclusion of the detector. The detector will be automatically included the next time the system is inserted.

[ 12 600 ] seconds

NUMBER OF PING EXPECTED
Number of connection attempts before radio failure report
[ 1 15 ]

RADIO SIGNAL INTENSITY TEST
With this function, the device after pressing the START button processes a test where it will indicate the signal level , flashing n times depending on the result obtained.(1-4)

DETECTION TEST
With this function, the device after pressing the START button will enter the test mode, keeping the LED always on and each valid movement will turn off to indicate an alarm detection.

EXCLUDE DEVICE
No: the device works normally and transmits all events/alarms.
Total: The device does not execute the sent commands. The system ignores the
device and its notifications.
Tamper Only: The system ignores notifications regarding activation of the device’s tamper button (tamper).

REMOVE DEVICE
Dissociate the detector from the Control Panel, removing it from the app and deleting the device settings.

INTENSITY GENIO SIGNAL

The level of the radio signal GENIO is determined by the number of packets sent by the detector and the actual number of packets received by the associated control panel.

To display the signal strength select the card Devices and the signal level field GENIO

0 = No radio signal, no connection to control panel.
= Poor radio signal, unstable connection with the Control Panel , operation of the detector not guaranteed.
• • = Low radio signal, low signal strength.
• • • = Good radio signal, good signal strength.
• • • • =  Excellent radio signal, optimal signal strength.

Check the radio signal strength before the final installation of the device. In case of low or unstable signal it is recommended to use the Automa repeater.

REPLACING THE BATTERIES

Keep the detector housing clean by immediately removing dust, cobwebs and other impurities. Use a soft, dry towel for equipment maintenance.
To clean the detector, avoid the use of substances containing alcohol, acetone, gasoline or other active solvents.

The battery life of the detector depends on the quality of the battery, the frequency of activation of the detector and the ping interval between detector and Central.

If the battery of the detector is low, the user receives a notification via D’AVINCI app.
