26 Installation and Programming Guide
Aritech Reliance XR Installation
Power Requirements
The Aritech Reliance XR range of products are to be only powered from an approved
Australian power unit source.
The Aritech Reliance XR is designed to be used with a 16 VAC 1.5 Amp 24 VA transformer
which is included with Aritech Reliance XR panel kits. If more current is required, upgrade
to a 16 VAC 3 Amp 48 VA transformer and/or add NXG-320 Smart Bus Power Supplies.
Cable Requirements
The system RS-485 communication bus is used to connect keypads, input, and output
expanders to the Aritech Reliance XR.
Only VW-1 rated cable is to be used for installation of these products.
800 m total cable run on system.
Max. 800 m from remote device to Aritech Reliance XR control panel.
Max. 32 devices plus panel.
Shielding
The shielding of all shielded cables used in the system should only be connected at one side
to one common earthing point in a building. If a shielded LAN cable is routed via more than
one plastic device, the shielding from incoming and outgoing cable must be connected.
Termination Links
Put a jumper across TERM on the panel and the furthest device to ensure correct RS-485
termination and avoid communication issues with signal reflection, etc.
Installation and Programming Guide 27
Installing Panel
1. The Aritech Reliance XR should be located away from damp areas (e.g. bathrooms,
kitchens), away from sources of heat, dust or interference (e.g. air conditioners,
washing machines, dryers, refrigerators) and away from external walls.
2. The metal enclosure should be installed with the door opening from the top to bottom.
3. Guides are cut into the enclosure to hold the
panel, two on the top and two on the bottom. Two
plastic brackets are pre-installed on the Aritech Reliance
XR. Slide the panel into the guides as shown in the
diagram. The terminal strip should face towards you
once installed.
4. A plastic strap is provided to allow the door to form a
temporary surface to hold light parts.
Installing Legacy NX Modules
Inside the enclosure there are several 2-holed insertion
points. These allows for either vertical or horizontal
placement of legacy NX modules. Each insertion point has
a larger hole and a smaller hole.
1. The black plastic PCB guides feature a groove to hold
an expansion module. The end with the half-moon
protrusion fits into the larger hole. The smaller hole is for
the screw.
2. Place the first black plastic PCB guide in the top
insertion point, groove facing downward. The half-moon
protrusion will be in the large hole. It does not require
force to insert. Insert one of the provided screws into the
smaller hole (from inside the enclosure) to secure it in
place. A screwdriver should reach through the groove that
runs the length of the guide to tighten the screw. The
second PCB guide should be positioned opposite the first
(groove facing up) and placed in the lower insertion point,
using the same procedures described above. Once
mounted, screw it in securely.
3. The NX module should slide freely in the grooves of
both guides.
28 Installation and Programming Guide
Installing Antennas
Several antennas may be provided depending on the model purchased. These include:
Multi-antennas for ITI 63-bit, ITI 80plus.
3G/4G antennas for WiFi/cellular module
WiFi antennas for WiFi/cellular module
Wireless Sensor Antennas
If two antennas have been provided:
1. Install panel into metal enclosure.
2. Install antennas vertically for best performance.
3. Each antenna is keyed (shaped differently) and
labelled. Antennas are reasonably flexible but do not
apply excessive force. Match the antenna to the
shape molded on the plastic bracket and push to
insert.
4. The line printed on each antenna will disappear
when fully inserted.
5. Remove antennas before attempting to remove
panel.
6. Antennas can be tampered monitored be enabling
Advanced General Options Antenna Tamper.
4G Cellular and WiFi Router Module Antennas
If the optional 4G Cellular and WiFi Router Module
has been installed, a single set of antennas should be
connected to “MAIN” on the module. The antennas
should be installed vertically, and as high up as
possible.
The module includes MIMO wireless technology to
improve reception of 3G/4G and WiFi wireless
signals. This requires the installation of a second set
of antennas to “DIV” on the 4G/WiFi Router Module.
The second set of antennas will perform best when
separated from the MAIN antennas by at least 20cm.

Programming Instructions for Arm-Disarm
Goal
Automatically arm and disarm your Aritech Reliance XR system.
Pre-conditions
Areas have been programmed.
Notes
After Arm-Disarm is programmed, a user must arm the system to initiate the function.
The Arm-Disarm will function as if it is the user you select. You will need to program valid
user permissions including Area Groups, User Schedule, Profile levels, and active date and
time.
Creating a new user only for the purpose of Arm-Disarm will make it easier to maintain.
Use defaults for Schedules, Area Groups and Permissions for faster programming.
Aritech Reliance XR will sound a warning prior to the Arm-Disarm from arming an Area. This
is set in Areas Area Timers Area Type Delay.
If a user with Area Type Override option disarms an Area with Arm-Disarm, then the Arm-
Disarm will no longer function on that Area. To re-enable Arm-Disarm that Area must be

Programming Instructions for Event Lists
Goal
Create segmented lists of events so Channels can selectively deliver event messages.
Pre-conditions
None.
Installation and Programming Guide 113
Notes
If an event message is enabled in an Event List, then the Channel will attempt to deliver it. If
an event message is not enabled on the Event List, the Channel will not attempt delivery
even if the message has been sent to it.
Event List set up for push notifications is automatically performed by the UltraSync+ app
when required. The panel will assign the next available channel and matching event list
number. No configuration via the web pages or DLX900 is required.
Programming Sequence

Example
In this example we have created two lists: Critical and Informational. This allows us to
selectively deliver event messages to different destinations.
We open up Event Lists and enter the name “Critical”. We tick Alarms, Alarm Restores,
Bypass and Bypass Restore, and AC Fail Reporting.
Then we click to Event List 2 and enter the name “Informational”. Tick Opening and Closing,
and Autotest Report.
Programming Instructions for Channels
Goal
Set up communication paths and destinations for delivering event messages.
Pre-conditions
1. Communicator must be programmed (see "Programming Instructions for
Communicator" on page 107).
2. Event Lists must be programmed (see "Programming Instructions for Event Lists" on
page 112).
3. If reporting to a control room, the panel must be provisioned in the UltraSync Portal.
The provisioning process sets the primary and secondary paths (IP/cellular), local path
fail detection, and server-based path monitoring settings.
Notes:
Area Account Number will take priority over Account Number entered here for Zone

2. Enter an Account Number up to 8 digits, hex values are accepted.
3. Select the Format of the communication channel, this will automatically use the settings
programmed for that Format in the Communicator menu.
If reporting to a control room via UltraSync, this must be set to “UltraSync”.
4. Select the reporting device, by default Device 1 is the Aritech Reliance XR panel.
5. Enter the destination email address or IP address depending on which Format you
selected.
If reporting to a control room via UltraSync, this can be left blank for SIA or CID event
messages.
6. Select what events you want to be sent via this Channel by selecting the appropriate
Event List. Events that arrive at this channel will be checked that they on this Event List,
if they are, then will be routed through this Channel. Events that arrive at this Channel
which are not on this list will be blocked.
If the currently selected Channel is used for push notifications to UltraSync+ app, the
Event List number must be the same as the Channel number.
7. Enter the number of Attempts that you want Aritech Reliance XR to try sending the
event message on this Channel before switching to the Next Channel.
8. Select the Next Channel Number to use if the event message fails to be sent on this
Channel.
Each Channel can have one Next Channel as a backup. This allows you to chain up to 15
backup paths should the primary one fail. Enter Next Channel as 0 to end the chain of
channels.
9. You have now finished programming one channel. If you entered a Next Channel, then
go to that Channel number and program that now.
Installation and Programming Guide 117
10. Once you have programmed each channel and backup channel(s) you have completed
this section. Check or edit Sequence Attempts under Communicator System Event
Reporting (6.11.2).
11. Go to Channel Groups. Here you will group channels together so selected event
messages will be sent to multiple destinations at the same time. Another way to think
of Channel Groups is “multi-path reporting”. Note this is in addition to WiFi/Ethernet
and Cellular backup where equipped and provisioned by UltraSync Portal.
12. Select each channel you want to be part of a group.
Messages sent to a Channel Group will be checked against each Channel’s Event List. If
it is on the list then Aritech Reliance XR will attempt to send it. If not, then Aritech
Reliance XR will not send it, even if the Channel is in the same group.
13. Done. Your Channels are now set up and ready for use. When an event is generated by
the system or a zone it can now be sent to a Channel for reporting.
Example
In this example we have multi-path, prioritised/selective event reporting via three reporting
paths one control room with backup, push notification to a smartphone, and an email
address. These are grouped into “Channel Group 1”.
All alarms are reported to Control Room 1 and push notification goes to UltraSync+ app
installed on User 1’s smartphone. Control room 1 has a backup receiver.
When a channel receives an alarm message, Aritech Reliance XR checks that the channel’s
Event List includes alarm messages and then attempts to deliver the message via that
channel.
When Channel 1/2/4 receives a low battery report, it is ignored because Event List 1 does
not include the “low battery” event.
Low priority alerts such as opening and closings, low batteries, and auto test reports, are
selected in Event List 2. Channel 6 handles Event List 2 and sends these events as an email
to a building manager. When Channel 6 receives the Zone 3 in Alarm event it takes no
action because Event List 2 does not include “Alarms”.
118 Installation and Programming Guide
Notice that Channel 2 is not selected in Channel Group 1. The Aritech Reliance XR will
deliver to Channel 2 only if Channel 1 cannot be reached. If Channel 2 were included in
Channel Group 1, then the control room may receive duplicate messages.

Combining Actions with Schedules
Schedules can control when a user has access, when an automatic Arm-Disarm occurs,
when devices can be used, and more. Actions can turn Schedules on and off, making
Schedules conditional based on when certain events occur.
The outcome is that we can control Users, Permissions, Areas, Zones, Actions, Arm-Disarm,
Scenes, and Devices, based on various system conditions. This provides automation
features that allows the system to respond in real-time to changing conditions.

This functionality is achieved by going to that Schedule and selecting Follow Action
Number.
Take care when combining multiple schedules and actions as troubleshooting can get
confusing. Always check and test functionality a single step at a time. Users and Zones can
have multiple levels of permissions, be sure to check that each permission level is always
appropriate.
Example
When a certain user is in the building, we can prevent an automatic Arm-Disarm from
occurring.
First program an Action with the conditions you want and the Duration of the Action if
necessary.
Next program Arm-Disarm with a User and Schedule.
Then set the Schedule to Follow Action Number.
When the action events are met, then the Schedule will become active and will be able to
perform an Arm-Disarm at the appropriate time. If the conditions are not met, then the
Arm-Disarm will never occur.

138 Installation and Programming Guide
Appendix 4: Troubleshooting
Connecting to the site with UltraSync+ app
If you have trouble connecting to your system using the app, here is a checklist:
Check the serial number, web access passcode, user name and PIN codes match
those in the Aritech Reliance XR.
Web Access Passcode must not be 00000000.
Web Access Passcode must be from 4 to 8 digits.
User Name must be entered with a space between the first and last name and with
correct capitalization.
Check the User Name does not have an extra space at the end.
If connected by Wired LAN, check the cable is plugged in and that the connection is
working.
Check Settings Network Enable UltraSync is ticked.
Check that your mobile device has access to the internet (e.g. open a web browser).
Power cycle connected equipment including Aritech Reliance XR and customer
supplied router(s).
Viewing Cameras in UltraSync+ app
Check:
Cameras must be added using UltraSync+ app “Add New Device” menu. This process
will activate the camera once a secure password has been set.
Manually adding a camera using the camera web page and panel web page (Menu
Settings Cameras) is only possible AFTER the camera has been activated by the
app.
Camera has a good connection to the router. This is influenced by distance, barriers
and walls, environmental conditions such as other routers and home appliances.
When using the Aritech Reliance XR Router the nominal range is 10-30m.
There is only one panel is on the same network. Each panel will periodically scan the
network for cameras in the background and take ownership of all cameras found. If
there is more than one panel on the same network, the cameras will swap panels
and become unavailable when logging in to that panel.
Installation and Programming Guide 139
Viewing Cameras on Touchscreen
If 7” WiFi Secondary Touchscreens are installed, check:
Panel arming/disarming is possible. This confirms if the touchscreen is enrolled
correctly with the panel and that the WiFi network is working.
Cameras are accessible from the UltraSync+ app, the video preview and live stream
should work. This confirms the camera is set up correctly, has access to the internet,
and can be authenticated by the panel. For local only panels (no internet and no
app), this step can be skipped.
All cameras have a secure password.
All touchscreens have the same password entered into the MENU Touchscreen
Camera Username / Password.
Reboot the WiFi router.
