The Universal Configuration Module
The Universal Configuration Module (UCM) is a Windows based software application, which
serves as the calibration, setup and maintenance tool for the Senstar LM100 system. The UCM
communicates with the gateway locally through a USB connection, or remotely via the Silver
Network Manager. When the UCM software starts, a window displays that enables you to specify
the device to which you are connecting (Senstar LM100).

Alarm communication options
•
contact closure alarm communications (local control mode) up to 14 distinct alarm zones per

Relay Output Card
The relay output card (ROC) (P/N 00BA2500) includes four relays to supplement the outputs
available on the gateway. In local control mode the ROC’s outputs indicate user-selectable alarm
and supervision conditions. In remote control mode, the host security management system
operates the ROC’s relays, as output control points, (e.g., to activate sirens, CCTV equipment,
etc.). You can configure the relays as latching (ON by command, OFF by command), in flash mode
(ON-OFF-ON-OFF, etc. by command, then OFF by command), or pulse mode (ON for a period,
then OFF). For flash and pulse modes, the Active/Inactive times are selectable.

Dry Contact Input Card
The dry contact input card (DRIC) (P/N 00BA2400) includes four inputs to supplement the inputs
available on the gateway. In local control mode the DRIC’s inputs are used to activate user-
specified luminaires. In remote control mode, the inputs connect auxiliary devices to the host
security management system (e.g., to report the status of other security equipment such as a
microwave or magnetic contact). The Filter Window parameter allows you to set the time period for
which an input must be active, before an event is reported.

Fail-safe relay operation
In the default configuration, the gateway’s relays operate in fail-safe mode. During normal
operation, the relays latch in the non-alarm state. In the event of a total gateway failure all relays
switch to the alarm state.

Note
For the Senstar LM100 to be part of a Silver Network based security
system, the gateway requires a network interface card.
The gateway can use either an input card or an output card, not both.
