Ats
Aritech ATS panels are multi-area intrusion detection systems. The integration with HSYCO can be accomplished via direct control through the RS-232 port on the serial module. The ATS I/O Server supports the integration of more than one unit within the same HSYCO interface.
Contents
Communication
Employ an RS-232 cable to connect the panel directly to HSYCO or to an Ethernet/RS-232 gateway. The cable must follow this pinout diagram:
RS-232 parameters:
| Baud rate | same as panel settings (default 4800) |
| Data bits | 8 |
| Stop bit | 1 |
| Parity | none |
| Flow control | RTS/CTS |
HSYCO Configuration
Options
| ID | Default | Values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| gui | true | true | enable support for the UI object, UISET actions and USER commands |
| false | disable UI support | ||
| startupevents | false | true | generate IO events also during the driver’s start-up phase |
| false | start generating events only after HSYCO is aligned with the current status of the system | ||
| pollinterval | 5 | n > 0 | the data acquisition interval, in seconds |
| logsize | 20 | n ≥ 0 | the number of log lines to display in the UI object |
| maxzone | 256 | 0 ... 256 | highest zone index set on the panel. This option is recommended to improve the I/O Server's performances |
| maxoutput | 256 | 0 ... 256 | highest output index set on the panel. This option is recommended to improve the I/O Server's performances |
| maxras | 16 | 0 ... 16 | highest RAS (Remote Arming Station) index set on the panel. This option is recommended to improve the I/O Server's performances |
ats.ini
The ats.ini file is a specific configuration file located in the root directory. Here you can define the names of zones and areas so that they will be automatically added to the user interface.
Add a new line for each name using this format:
<io_server_id>.zone.<n> = <name> <io_server_id>.area.<n> = <name>
For instance:
ats.zone.1 = Kitchen ats.zone.2 = Corridor ats.area.1 = Floor 1

User Interface
Ats Object
The user interface for the Aritech ATS multi-area intrusion detection system:
The Ats object is listed in the Project Editor’s new object list only when at least one Aritech ATS I/O Server is defined.
Parameters
- server id: the server ID. Supports Redirect variables
- position: the object's position. Use the pixels or rows and columns coordinates format
Syntax
(ats <server id>; <position>)
E.g.
(ats serverid; x10y20)
