Programming with a Computer
The AE-500’s built-in programming interface can be accessed on-site
(using a separate telephone line) or off-site using a computer with a
modem and any Internet browser (if using Netscape, be sure Java is
installed).The AE-500 can be programmed using the local keypad or with
a telephone, but computer programming is the easiest method.
the Internet will find programming the AE-500 with a computer very easy.
The AE-500’s memory contains the “pages” that the computer will view.
When selections and changes are made on the computer, the AE-500’s
memory is programmed to your custom settings.
The following screen pictures show setting up a “Dial-up” connection in
Windows™ XP and how to connect with a single AE-500. To create “Dial-
up” connections for multi-unit installations, see the next page.
Navigating through the AE-500’s programming “pages” is similar to
browsing through your favorite web site’s pages. Anyone familiar with

Setting up Multiple Units
The system supports up to seven AE-500s connected to the same telephone line.
Some telephone systems may only support up to four units on the same telephone
line. In multiple-unit installations each AE-500 must be assigned a unique unit
number before programming. The unit number allows connecting to a specific unit
when calling for programming. One unit must be assigned as Unit #1.
SETTING A UNIT NUMBER
PPN 71
71#UNIT#
✦
NOTE: If this is a multi-unit installation, the installation company most
likely has already set the unit numbers.The following programming step is
shown for reference.
UNIT = UNIT NUMBER (1-7) FOR MULTI-UNIT INSTALLATION
To set a unit’s number perform the following steps on each AE-500 unit
connected to the same telephone line.
FACTORY SETTING: UNIT NUMBER 1
1. If not already in Programming Mode, use the local keypad to enter the
master password and access programming.
2. Press:
3. Enter the unit number (1-7).
4. Press
5. Exit Programming Mode.
Multiple Unit Installation Programming Information
To computer program multi-unit installations that use the same telephone line,
each unit will require a separate “Dial-up” connection.
Creating a Connection for Each Unit
1. Start creating a “Dial-up” connections for each unit as described on
Page 13.
2. When the “New Connection Wizard” asks for the “Connection Name”
(Step #6 in the Page 13 figure) enter a unique name for the specific unit.
Example:“AE-500 Unit #2”
3. When the “New Connection Wizard” asks for the “Phone Number to Dial”
(Step # 7 in the Page 13 figure) enter the common telephone number for the
multi-unit installation followed by four commas, the unit number, and a #.
Example:“555-1234,,,,2#”
✦
NOTE: Each comma adds a 2-second delay to the dialing process.
Depending on the time required by the telephone system to make a
connection to the AE-500, more or less commas might be required.
4. When the “New Connection Wizard” is finished, a desktop icon named for
each AE-500 unit will be created on the computer.
To connect to a specific unit for programming, double-click on the desktop icon
named for the unit.
Copying Data from One Unit to Another
If multiple units will be sharing the same programming information, data from one
unit can be copied to another. A backup file is created in this process to make
copies. For security, backing up a unit’s data is always a good idea.
1. After entering the Resident Data, Media Data, and programming options
for the first unit, click “Utilities”, then “Data Backup”. Click “Save” at the
XML warning window then select a file to save to.
2. After the data backup is complete, disconnect from the first unit, then re-
connect to the unit to copy the data to.
3. From the home page, click “Utilities”, then “Load Factory Defaults”. When
complete, click “Data Restore” and browse for the file to copy. Select the
file and click “Upload” to send the file to the unit.
✦
IMPORTANT NOTE: Always load the factory defaults into a unit before
performing data restore. Otherwise, the unit’s data may become corrupted.
4. Make any other unit-specific programming changes before disconnecting.

Programming Over the Telephone
The system can be programmed using a TouchTone™ telephone. The
telephone’s keypad will act similar to the AE-500’s local keypad.
1. CALL THE SYSTEM
Connecting with a Telephone
1. Place a call to the telephone number of the line that AE-500 is
connected to.
2. The AE-500 will answer and sound a tone for about ½ second.
3. After the tone, enter the master password, then press # (factory
setting is 123456, your installer may have set a new password).
If the password is correct, the system will sound two short beeps.
For multi-unit installations, enter the unit number then #
before entering the password.
2. WAIT FOR THE TONE TO FINISH
3. ENTER THE MASTER PASSWORD
THEN PRESS #
(TWO BEEPS SOUND WITH THE
CORRECT PASSWORD)
NOTE: FOR MULTI-UNIT INSTALLATIONS,
ENTER THE UNIT NUMBER THEN # BEFORE
ENTERING THE PASSWORD THEN #
4. Programming commands can now be entered from the telephone’s
keypad. Refer to the following sections of this manual for
programming step details.
When programming over the telephone, each programming step consists
of entering programming data using the keypad. The system will sound
beeps over the telephone to indicate correct or incorrect entries.
• After a correct entry, two short beeps will sound.
• After an incorrect entry, a long beep will sound.
• After the complete programming step has been entered correctly,
three short beeps will sound.
WHEN ENTERING COMMANDS:
CORRECT ENTRY = TWO SHORT BEEPS
INCORRECT ENTRY = ONE LONG BEEP
Re-entering a Command After a Mistake
If an incorrect entry, or an incorrect key is pressed during programming,
AFTER A COMPLETE STEP = THREE SHORT BEEPS
press
and start the programming step over again.
Exiting Programming Mode
1. Press:
✦ NOTE: The AE-500 will automatically exit Programming Mode
after five minutes of programming inactivity.

Resident Data Programming
Up to 250 resident names and telephone numbers can be set. Each resident
entry is assigned a directory number. The directory numbers are the numbers
visitors enter to have the system call the residents.

computer is the preferred method. Refer to the “Programming from the
Local Keypad” section of these instructions for details on alphanumeric
entry from the keypad.

Entry Code Programming
An entry code is a number entered at the AE-500 keypad or remote keypad to request
access. Up to 500 entry codes can be set. Entry codes can be from two to six digits in length
(all will be the same length).
• When an entry code is programmed to activate a specific relay, the selected relay will
activate when the code is entered on either the AE-500 keypad or the remote keypad.
• When an entry code is programmed to activate both relays, and a remote keypad is
attached, Relay Channel “A”will activate if the entry code is entered on the AE-500 keypad;
Relay Channel “B” will activate if the entry code is entered on the remote keypad.
Entry codes can be programmed for timed or toggle operation. Timed relays activate for a
programmed length of time. Toggle relays latch on until the next time a toggle entry code is
entered, then the relay unlatches. Each entry code can also be set for a limited or unlimited
number of uses.
• When an entry code is programmed to activate both relays, and a remote keypad is not
attached, the entry code will activate both Relay Channels “A” and “B”.
An entry code will activate Relay Channel “A” or “B” depending on how the entry code is
programmed and whether or not a remote keypad is attached:
When an entry code is programmed to activate both relays, only timed relay mode is
available for that code, toggle relay mode is unavailable.
Changing the Entry Code Length
The factory setting for the entry code length is 4 digits. It can be set to 2-6 digits.
1. If not already in Programming Mode, connect by telephone or use the local

Wireless Transmitter Programming
Up to 500 wireless transmitters can be used with the system. Transmitters can
be ordered in pre-programmed blocks of sequential ID codes. Up to 16 blocks of
transmitters can be used. Transmitter blocks can be ordered with a Facility Code
of 1-15 for block identification if desired. Using Facility Codes is optional. For
security, an individual transmitter can be deactivated in case it is lost or stolen.
✦
NOTE: Transmitters will activate Relay Channels “A” or “B” depending
on the setting of the transmitter button options. See the table below for
the factory preset button options.Your installer may have modified these
options. Check boxes are provided to log any modified button options.
