Input/output configuration
This section details the procedures for configuring the gateway’s inputs and outputs (I/O) for Local 
control and Remote control operation.
Specifying the Auxiliary I/O control mode, I/O type and option card
1. On the Aux Cfig tab select the Arrow beside the Aux Control: field.
2. Specify the control mode for this gateway (Local or Remote).
3. If the gateway includes an option card, specify the type (Input or Output).
4. Use the 10 Aux Type radio buttons to set each I/O point as either an input or an output.
5. Save the UCM configuration file and download the configuration changes to the gateway.
Auxiliary (Aux) inputs
The I/O points specified as inputs on the gateway are voltage sensing inputs. The gateway 
determines an input’s status via an internal reference voltage, and the configuration of the contact 
closures and supervision resistors. Input contact closures MUST be voltage-free. Define the inputs 
as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) with single resistor supervision, dual resistor 
supervision, or unsupervised. The Filter Window parameter enables the setting of the time period 
for which an input must be active, before the gateway reports an event.
Local control mode
In local control mode, the Aux inputs are used to activate luminaire zones in response to the inputs 
of auxiliary security equipment. Select the input, specify the input’s parameters, and then specify 
which luminaire zone will be activated when the input is activated.
Remote control mode
In Remote control mode, the Aux inputs serve as auxiliary device inputs to the host Security 
Management System (SMS). The inputs are available for reporting the status of other security 
devices. The gateway reports any change of an input’s state to the SMS via the Silver Network 
Manager.
Note
See document # 00DA1003-002 for details on using the UltraLink 
modular I/O system to report Senstar LM100 alarm conditions.

Note
The four inputs on the (dry contact input card) DRIC function the same 
as the inputs on the gateway. Follow the directions for setting up the 
gateway’s AUX inputs to setup the inputs on the DRIC (if applicable).
