Installation- and maintenance-related warnings
The device supports usage of two RF transmitters. The function related to the RF
transmitters (remotely initiated emergency alarm, battery voltage monitoring,
transmitter supervision) will work only if you assign the transmitter to the device.
Test the RF transmitter operating range before mounting the unit. Mount the unit in
the most suitable place considering the test results.
The operating range of the RF transmitter depends on the local reception conditions,
therefore it is the installer’s responsibility to test the proper operation on the scene,
assess and inform the user with regard to the local operating range, as well as to
mount the unit in the most optimal place, where it will be able to receive the RF
transmitter’s signals from the desired distances, taking into account that the
operating range of the RF transmitter decreases when its battery weakens.
Attention! The batteries of the RF transmitter have to be replaced forthwith if
“RF transmitter battery low” event is received, as well as at least yearly,
independently of the reception of this event, in order to retain the operating range of
the transmitter! The range decreases if the battery weakens!
It is very important to replace the batteries of the RF transmitter exclusively with new,
quality lithium batteries of the same manufacturer and type! Otherwise, the batteries
will not be balanced while in use, which results faster discharging, thus the batteries’
life will be shorter.
Attention! It is recommended to replace the device’s internal backup battery yearly!
The parameters of the battery are available in the technical specification section at
the end of the installation and application manual.
If the battery is not used permanently, i.e. the device is powered off, the battery may
go flat due to self-discharge and after a period of time it may get destroyed! To avoid
this, when the device is not in use for a longer period, it is recommended to power up
the device once a month and charge the battery.
Test the GSM signal strength with your mobile phone. It may happen that the signal
strength is not sufficient in the desired mounting place. In this case the planned
installation place can be changed before mounting the device.
Do not mount the unit in places where it can be affected by strong electromagnetic
disturbances (e.g. in the vicinity of electric motors, etc.).
Do not mount the unit in wet places, places with high degree of humidity or fire and
explosion hazardous places.
Do not mount the unit close to radiators, heating appliances, air conditioners or
where the environmental temperature may exceed 30ºC or drop below +10ºC.
For appropriate RF range, the device should be mounted horizontally in upright
position, on the wall or other suitable surface, at least at 1 meter from the ground
level.
Avoid mounting the device in the close proximity of metal surfaces, because these
greatly reduce the RF transmitter’s operating range!
