1.2 Tools Required
The following tools are required for installation:
★
Large & small flat bladed screwdrivers and cross point screwdrivers
★
Hammer
★
Power drill
★
Wire cutters and wire stripper
★
Eye protection (recommended when using a power drill or hammer)
1.3 System Features
★
Simple and effective Four-zone system with the new two-wire technology.
★
All system components (sensors, sirens) are connected to the Control Unit via two-core
non-polarity flat wires. Wiring and installation of the system is extremely simple and easy.
★
Control Unit has built-in keypad with status LEDs and zone indicators. Low battery and tamper
attempts will be indicated by the status LEDs.
★
Push-button “HOME”, “OUT” and “OFF” three mode operation.
★
“HOME” and “OUT” modes are pre-programmed for user convenience.
★
At “OFF” mode, door chime function is available.
★
All sensors, sounders are 24 hour line-protected and fully supervised. Any attempt to interfere
with the system, such as cutting the connecting wires or opening any of the PIR detectors, will
trigger the alarm and be identified by flashing LEDs and zone indicator.
★
No fuse to burn. Short-circuit tamper attacks to any zone sensor will trigger the alarm and be
identified by flashing LEDs and zone indicator, but the operation of the rest of the system is
protected.
★
User PIN for disarming (unsetting) the system, plus Duress PIN to also dial out a telephone dialer
(if one is fitted) when entering the premises under duress.
★
Individual zones can be set to “HOME-BYPASS” or “BYPASS”; for example, the up-stairs
detectors can be set to “HOME-BYPASS” at night.
★
Two PIR motion detectors can be connected to one zone, therefore the system can be expanded to
have four PIRs plus many magnetic contacts. Also, easy connections are provided for adding
telephone dialer to the system.
SECTION 2 – PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
2.1 Location of components
Control Unit – Location
In choosing a suitable location you should bear in mind:
★
The user needs to reach the Control Unit easily within the allocated time, when entering and
leaving the premises.
★
The Control Unit should not be visible from the exterior of the protected premises.
★
All detectors and the external siren must be wired to the Control Unit.
★
The Control Unit needs to be connected to an AC main via a CE approved adapter.
Having chosen the location do not mount at this stage.
Movement/Passive Infra Red Detector (PIR) – Location
★
The detector should not be mounted near to large metal objects or on metal surfaces. It needs to
be mounted on a wall or in a corner at a height of approximately 2 to 2.5meters for the best
general coverage in an average room. The detector has been designed to avoid false alarms,
nevertheless, it is best to avoid looking directly at sources of heat such as fires and boilers, and
always try to keep away from a window. A PIR can look at a radiator but should not be sited
above one.
