2.0/ The IR receiver / LCD display

The display consists of two 8 segments digit and a dot. It will provide information on your installation, how 

it is configured, and will assist in solving problems. This BUS C.U does not work with the 53500 I.R receiver

2.1/ Information provided by the 8 segments digit 53550:

On some occasions (described later on in this user's guide), the display will be toggling between a number 

(1 to 8) and a 3 horizontal bars pattern. The number relates to the sensor ("3" means the sensor that is 
plugged into input 3). The 3 horizontal bars will tell what is connected and stuck to the product as shown 
below

PLEASE NOTE THAT ON THE STANDARD Altea 3 THE BOTTOM BAR WILL NEVER 

BE LIT SINCE THERE IS NO PROTECTION ON THE POWER SUPPLY.

Information provided by the dot:

 

Dot NOT lit: the control unit is OFF, nothing is protected

 

Dot blinking slowly (every second): control unit ON, no problem detected

 

Dot blinking quickly: control unit ON, but there is at least one problem that has been detected

3.0/ First startup.

1 - 

Opun the battery compartment

2 - 

Insert 3 standard AA batteries into the control unit

3 - 

Close the battery compartment.

4 - 

Connect the IR receiver / display to the control unit

At this stage, you may want to already connect up to 8 sensors to the control unit or you may want 

to power it up with no sensors and add them one by one later while the control unit is ON. Wha-

tever you choose, the control unit will behave the same at the first power up:

5 - 

Connect the power supply.

6 - 

The display will show the clockwise revolving digits

7 - 

ASSOCIATE at least one blue key to the control unit

Once this is done, the Altea 3 will start operating and the display will show the slowly blinking dot.

8 - 

 Install mode: the Altea 3 will then browse through its 8 inputs, starting from input 

1. When it finds a sensor with every possible protection properly applied (ie both the 
main and nano sensors properly stuck for the Altea 3, or the main, the nano and the 
power supply sensors for the Altea 3 Pro) it just skips to the next input (if all 8 inputs 
have all sensors and all protections properly applied, then the control unit will just 
start its operation).

4.0/ Plug & Play procedure

4.1/ Control Unit Initializing

Start the Control Unit (without connecting sensors or with sensors connected but not stuck) without connec-

ting distributors. The left display show nothing and the middle dash blink on the right display (internal dis-
tributor). Press the blue remote control to validate the internal distributor (address 0). If the Control Unit is 
started with at least one sensor stuck, it will display the first defective sensor fully or partially unstuck and 
you will have then to validate all the defective points from 1 to 8. 

After Validation, the left display show " 1 " blinking and nothing on the right display because no distributor 

is connected. Press the blue key to validate the missing distributor and then repeat this operation till the 
display show the decimal point blinking meaning that the Control Unit is running. 

4.2/ Distributors Programming

When the control Unit is running, connect the first virgin distributor (without connecting sensors or with sen-

sors connected but not stuck) whose red LED is alight. The left display show number "1" blinking and the 
right display show the middle dash blinking indicating that it will validate automatically this distributor at 
the address " 1 " in 30 seconds, in the meantime, one bip will be emitted every 5 seconds. If you agree, 
you can speed the procedure validating with the blue remote control and stick label "1" on it then repeat 
this operation with all the distributors you have in the limit of 9. 

Warning, if the connected distributor has at least one sensor stuck, the Control Unit 

will not take care of them and the validation of the Distributor will validate also the 
connected sensors

In the Plug & Play procedure, it is not possible to allocate distributors leaving blanks (i.e.: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9) the 

addresses proposed by the Control Unit are in order (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9).

When a distributor is operating, the LED blinks briefly every second.     

WARNING, you never must connect in the same time several virgin distributors to 

the Control Unit because they will get the same address and will generate false 
alarms.

5.0/ Maintenance procedure

5.1/ Programming

This procedure allows programming the distributors one by one, which means only one distributor can be 

connected to the Control Unit in the same time. If several virgin distributors are connected in the same time 
the LED of each distributor which normally must lit continuously will blink randomly.

To enter this procedure, you need to have a Yellow remote control allocated to the Control Unit and stop it 

pressing 5 seconds on the blue remote control.

You must wait to be on the right menu and on the right address to connect the distributor.
Press briefly on the yellow remote control and you see number " 1 " on the right, meaning you are at the " 

ringing " menu level, press briefly a new time on the yellow remote control and you reach the level of the 
cycling power menu, press briefly for the third time on the yellow remote control and you are at the pro-
graming distributor menu.  Press 2 seconds the remote control and the left digit display the number " 1 " 
blinking and the right digit displays nothing.  You have to press as much as necessary to reach the number 
you chosen and then connect the distributor (virgin or already programmed) which will get the current ad-
dress stabilizing the display. Sticks the corresponding label and disconnect it, you will see on the left digit 
display the following number blinking and, if you do nothing, the control unit exit the programing mode 
after 5 seconds.

If you wish program several distributors in this mode, press briefly as much as necessary to reach the number 

you chosen or do nothing if the chosen address is the following and, within 5 seconds, connect the distri-
butor which will get this new address and stabilize the display. Repeat this operation as much as necessary. 
When you reach the n° " 9 ", the following number will be n° 1.  After having addressed Distributor n° 9, 
when you disconnect the distributor, the left digit display n° " 1 ". The current number blinks for 5 seconds 
allowing eventually programming of the following distributor. If you do nothing, the Control Unit will exit 
the programming mode after 5 seconds.  

5.2/ Blanking

This procedure located on level " 4 " of the maintenance menus after the programming 3rd level allow to 

erase one several distributors at the same time. You have just, Control Unit in the stop mode, to press 
briefly 4 times on the yellow remote control to see the number "4" on the right digit. Press 2 seconds on 
the yellow remote control to put all the distributors connected to their default address (virgin distributor 
with the red LED lighting) and exit the blanking mode.

6.0/ Option : Alarm report

The alarm report is located on the contact 1 & 4 of the anti-displacement Plug
This is a dry N/O contact which is closed when there is a problem

 

This contact is activated in the following cases:

> Self-protection default
> Bus Default
> Sensors default
> Distributor Default
> Anti-displacement
> Connection of a TOR Sensor

At the end of this procedure, the configuration of your installation will be kept in memory by the con-

trol unit (even if the control unit is switched off), and whatever discrepancy with this memorized 
configuration will trigger an alarm.

7.0/ Adding a product to an existing configuration

Adding products is automatic. Just stick the appropriate sensors on the product you want to add and connect 

it to the control unit.

After 30 seconds, a beep will be heard, telling that the control unit has taken the new product into account.

The display will show what has been detected, toggling between the product number and the 3 bars pattern 

(cf  graph 005c),  and a beep will be heard every 5 seconds.

You will need to validate the addition just like when you validated the various positions at first startup, by 

pressing on a valid blue or green key. However, if you don't, the Altea 3 will automatically validate what 
it has detected after 30 secs, and the beep will stop.

The new configuration will then be memorized, taking the addition into account.

8.0/ Alarm management

When an alarm is triggered, a loud audio sound will be heard and the display will show a "A".

It is of course highly recommended to immediately look around and find out if anyo-

ne is trying to tamper with the system.

To stop the alarm sound, briefly press on a blue or green key.

Caution: by doing so, you are also inhibiting the particular sensor that trigge-

red the alarm (the nano sensor of telephone #8 in the above example). That 
means that you have lost the protection brought by this sensor until you fix 
the problem. 

It is therefore highly recommended that you fix the problem immediately (cf graph 009).

However, if you really don't have time to, you will be able to fix it later (not recommended). In the meantime, 

all other products remain fully protected.

If there is at least one sensor that has been inhibited, the dot on the LCD will blink more quickly, meaning: 

"there is at least one problem that needs to be fixed".

14.0/ Key usage

14.1/ Getting started

If your Altea 3 is brand new or if it has been totally reset (configuration and key reset), the display will show 

clock wise revolving digits. 

That means that NO key is currently associated to (= known by) the control unit. In that state, only a blue 

or red key can be recognized and associated to the Altea 3, which means you have two options:

Option 1: associating a blue key (with red key) 

Just take a blue key and press the button. A beep will be heard and the blue key will automatically be asso-

ciated to the control unit. The Altea 3 will be switched ON and will start a new configuration check as 
described in the first startup user's guide (“First startup.”, page 7). Follow the steps from there.

Option 2: associating a red key (control unit blank)

This option is generally chosen when you want to quickly re-associate all the keys you own to a Altea 3 that 

has been totally reset (configuration + keys reset). 

Just take a red key, press the button. A beep will be heard, the display will show a "C" (like configuration), 

and the red key will automatically be associated to the control unit. From there, you need to associate other 
keys to your Altea 3, otherwise you will just stay in this configuration mode (with the "C" still displayed) and 
will not be able to use the control unit.

Just associate the other keys you have to the Altea 3 by following the relevant procedure (“Associating blue, 

green or yellow keys to a Altea 3”, page 20).
