•Allows for managing multiple alarm systems within the same app.
2.2.Monitoring Options
•Keybus enables Surf-K/KM to communicate with the panel and keypads directly for faster
status reporting. It also allows for use of additional commands such as zone status,
bypass/unbypass, and no entry delay arm. Keybus monitoring is available for DSC
PowerSeries and Honeywell Vista series panels. Connect YEL and GRN terminals to keybus
terminals of these panels to fully interact with the alarm panel. The events and status signals
are sent to Aryo cloud and the CMS.
•In case the alarm panel does not support keybus, Surf-K/KM is able to arm and disarm the
system through keyswitch arming.
•Dial capture allows Surf-K/KM to detect and capture CID and SIA events and monitor any
alarm system that uses these two formats. Dial capture monitoring is available to connect
the TIP and RNG terminals to any panel that can communicate in CID and SIA formats. The
signals are captured and sent to Aryo cloud and the CMS.
•Keybus and dial capture can be used together for fully control and monitoring the alarm
panel, through connecting the corresponding terminals.
•Legacy monitoring is also available, in case the panel does not support CID/SIA formats.
Surf-K/KM can use 3 input zones to monitor legacy alarm panel outputs by providing
burglary, fire, and panic alarms. These signals are then sent to Aryo cloud and the CMS.
3.Pre-Installation Recommendations
•Conduct a placement test to find a suitable location with the best LTE signal.
•Wiring can only be done when both Surf-K/KM and the alarm panel are powered down.
•DO NOT route any wire over the alarm panel or Surf-K/KM circuit boards.
•Install and program your alarm panel before connecting it to Surf-K/KM.
•Use only one device per alarm panel.
•Install and operate Surf-K/KM within its specified temperature range to prevent any possible
damage.
•DO NOT install the unit close to a heating source, direct sunlight, or in a damp location.
•DO NOT connect Surf-K/KM to a phone line. This will damage the device.
•Always connect Surf-K/KM to an approved power source and battery backup.
3.1.Antenna
•Surf-K/KM uses a full-band LTE magnetic antenna. The antenna can be connected to Surf-
K/KM antenna connector as shown in section 1.3.
•Antenna should be placed high in an open area within the building and far from any
interference by heating ducts, metal pipes, or electrical wiring and concrete walls.
•DO NOT install the antenna in a metal enclosure.
