Wireless Sounder Instructions 3

Introduction

RISCO Group's two-way External Wireless Sounder is designed to extend the

signaling capabilities of RISCO Group's wireless systems. The wireless sounder

offers an easy and flexible solution for quick installation. The sounder is powered by

its own batteries and communicates wirelessly with the security panel.

Up to 3 wireless sounders can be assigned to a system.

Operational Functions

Alarm / Tamper Indication

Upon an alarm condition, the sounder will be activated for a period of time defined

by the system (Bell Time Out parameter).

Low Battery Indication

Upon a low battery condition a trouble indication is sent to the panel.

There are 2 types of low battery indications:

Radio low battery

Speaker low battery

Supervision

Each sounder can be defined to be supervised by the panel. The system generates

a local fault signal identifying the sounder whose signal is not received during a

predefined time, followed by a report to the Alarm Receiving Center (if defined).

Pre Alarm Indication

When an entry time starts, the system transmits a pre-alarm signal to the sounder.

If the system is unset before the entry delay time expires, a cancellation signal is

sent to the sounder.

If the sounder does not receive a cancellation signal within the entry delay time, the

sounder will be activated.

Sounder Self Testing

Once placing all batteries in the battery holders or pressing on the reset switch

located on the PCB (with the tamper switch open), the sounder performs a

functional self test indicated by a strobe flash squawk sound.

LED display

The wireless sounder has 2 LEDs located on the PCB. These LEDs are

enabled when the tamper is open and 10 minutes after the tamper is closed.

Red: Indicates transmission

Yellow: Indicates a low battery

Red and Yellow (3 seconds): Confirms successful learning

Wireless Sounder Instructions

Mounting the Sounder

To mount the sounder follow this procedure:

1. Open the front cover by removing the case locking screw located at the bottom of

the unit.

2. Hold the mounting pattern template (supplied) against the wall and mark the

locations for the mounting holes (4 mounting holes are available). Drill the desired

mounting holes and place the screw anchors.

3. Mount the back unit to the wall using the supplied screws, 3.9mm, 32mm length

screws (DIN 7981 3.9X32 ZP).

4. Insert a tamper screw into a tamper hole -- see the figure below.

5. Access to the PCB is gained by releasing the inner cover retaining the clip and

lifting the cover upward (rotating it on its axis).

6. Insert the supplied batteries in the metal clips according to the polarity. The

sounder is ready for communication set up with the system.

Wireless Sounder Instructions

Programming the sounder

Programming the wireless sounder consists of the following 3 steps:

1. Setting communication between the receiver and the sounder

2. Setting sounder parameters

3. Testing the sounder

Step 1: Sounder/Receiver Communication Set up

The sounder must identify itself to the system's receiver by writing its ID into the

system. Perform according to the following steps:

1. Set the receiver to the Write mode.

NOTE:

WisDom; Main engineer menu> 9) Devices > 2)Sounder > 1) Allocation > Select sounder> Choose

ODWS1

Agility: Main Engineer menu: 2) Radio Devices > 1) Allocation > 1) RF Allocation

LightSYS (V2.40 and above): Main Engineer menu: 7) Install > 2) WL Device > 2) Allocation > 1) By

RF > 4) Sounder

2. Select the sounder's ID.

3. Unpack the supplied batteries.

4. Insert two speaker batteries and three Radio batteries into the batteries holders.

5. After a squawk is heard and the sounder's strobe flashes you have 10 seconds to

press on the tamper switch for at least 3 seconds. If the sounder is successfully

recognized, the system will sound a confirmation beep and the sounder will initiate

a second squawk sound and the 2 LEDs on the sounder will flash for 3 seconds.

6. Repeat the process for other sounders in the system.

Step 2: Setting the Sounder Parameters

Each sounder can be defined with different sets of parameters. The following table

describes the list of parameters of the sounder.

NOTE:

For the specific programming location of each parameter refer to the system manuals.

Strobe Control

Defines the Strobe operation mode:

Always Off: The strobe is deactivated

Follow Bell (Default): The strobe is activated when the sounder bell is

triggered

Follow Alarm: The strobe is activated when an alarm event occurs in the

system

Strobe Blink

Defines the number of times the strobe will flash per minute (Default 40 times per

minute). Strobe Blink options:

[1] 20 times per minute [4] 50 times per minute

[2] 30 times per minute [5] 60 times per minute

[3] 40 times per minute (Default)

Wireless Sounder Instructions 7

Strobe Arm Squawk

The time that strobe blinking will continue when set is performed (Default: 05)

NOTE:

If the sounder’s squawk strobe is defined as NO (Refer to the Allocation section) this parameter will be

ignored.

Adjusting the Volume

Defines the sounder sound volume for the following system modes:

Exit / Entry: The sound produced during Exit/Entry time (Default: 0)

Alarm: The sound produced during alarm (Default: 9)

Squawk: The sound produced during squawk sounds (Default: 9)

The sound volume range is between 0 (silent) to 9 (maximum volume).

Muting Tamper

This feature disables a tamper alarm from the sounder and it is recommended to be

used when replacing the sounder's batteries.

NOTES:

1. An ongoing tamper alarm will not be disabled.

2. WisDom: This feature is controlled under the Engineer Menu (Quick key [9][2][5]). Tamper alarm

will be disabled during the current installation programming period.

3. Agility: Grandmaster Code/User Menu > Activities > Advanced > Service Mode (Agility 3 only)

The tamper alarm will be disabled for the time programmed in the Mode Service timer.

4. LightSYS (V2.40 and above): Grandmaster Code/User Menu > Activities > Advanced > Service

Mode

The tamper alarm will be disabled for the time programmed in the Mode Service timer.

Setting Supervision Time

Specifies how often the system generates a supervision request to the sounder.

If any of the sounders does not respond to the request at least once during the

receiver supervision time, the system will regard the accessory as lost.

NOTE:

The receiver supervision time should be higher than the sounder supervision time in order to

eliminate false lost event.

Range: 00-255 minutes

Default: 58 minutes

NOTE:

WisDom: Engineer menu: 1) System > 1) Timers > 9) Accessory supervision time

Agility: Engineer menu: 1) System > 1) Timers > TX supervision

supervision.

Wireless Sounder Instructions

Pre Alarm indication

This wireless sounder incorporates a pre-alarm feature that enhances the security of

the system by producing a local alarm in case of sabotage.

If defined, the system sends a pre-alarm signal to the sounder at the beginning of the

entry delay. If the sounder does not receive a cancellation signal from the system at

the end of the entry time, the sounder goes into alarm mode.

NOTE:

WisDom (Ver 4.25): Engineer menu Quick key: 1)System> 2)Parameters> 35)Sounder Pre alarm

Agility: Engineer menu: [1][2] > Advanced > Sounder Pre alarm

LightSYS (V2.40 and above): Engineer menu 1) System > 2) Controls > 7) Device > 5) Sounder Pre
