1.3. System Overview

The CommPact Control System is a full-featured wireless Control System that is expected to provide a solution to the needs of most residential installations. This system has been developed based upon a design concept geared towards easy installation and use. With this in mind, the user interface is based on a simple, menu-driven model that suits the essential requirements of both the user and engineer alike. You can program the CommPact Control System on-site using the Front Panel keypad or PC, or off-site via a PC using local programming option of the Remote Programmer.

The system offers GPRS network connectivity, providing high-speed central station reporting via a GPRS interface.

The Electronics Line Application Server (ELAS) handles all communication between the system, service providers and web users enabling monitoring and control to be performed via the Web. Backup communication is carried out via PSTN or GSM.

Central station communication and remote parameters programming and maintenance employ GPRS, GSM or standard PSTN communication. SMS messaging provides an innovative method used for both central station and Follow-Me user monitoring. Additionally, SMS messages can be sent to the Control System enabling the user to send commands to the system from anywhere on the planet.

Figure 1-1 shows the components that make up the system and the system’s interaction with external communication networks for all the available configurations.

2. System Installation

The following chapter explains how to install the system and provides guidelines and tips on how to optimize the installation.

It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the various circuit boards that make up the system – see p. 4, 1.4 Hardware Layout.

2.1. Pre-Installation Planning

Before starting the installation procedure, it is worthwhile to draw a rough sketch of the building and determine the required position for the Control System and each wireless device.

When deciding on the placement for installation, consider the following:

• Mount the Control System in a location with easy access to telephone and power

connections.

• Mount the Control System in a location that provides easy connection to the router.

• For best performance of the GPRS Communication, the Control System should be

mounted in a position where the GSM signal is strong.

• Refer to the following section in order to choose the optimal location for wireless

devices in relation to the Control System.

2.1.1. Wireless Installation Guidelines

In order to optimize wireless communication, consider the following guidelines:

• Whenever possible, mount the Control System centrally in relation to wireless

detectors.

• Avoid installation in close proximity to sources of high noise or radio frequency

interference. For example, metal air conditioner/heater ducts and circuit breaker boxes.

• Minimize the distance between the Control System and transmitters.

• Minimize the number of obstacles between the Control System and transmitters.

Figure 2-1: Minimizing Obstacles

• Metal based construction materials, such as steel reinforced concrete walls, reduce the

range of radio transmissions.

Figure 2-2: Considering Construction Materials

Page 12

2 System Installation

Below you can see another, more complicated example of how can the premises be divided. In this example, the garage is included in full + part + perimeter setting, the house perimeter zones are included in full + perimeter setting, and the house interior zones, in full setting only. So, part setting allows the user to set the garage, perimeter setting is used to secure the house perimeter at nights, and the full setting is used when leaving the house. Figure 3-4 illustrates this example. In each diagram, the protected area is shaded.

Full set Part set Perimeter set

Figure 3-4: Setting Modes: Garage Example.

3.6.2. Setting Keys

The Setting keys enable you to set the system using any of the three setting methods: -- Full, Part and Perimeter.

Front Panel Wireless Keypad EL-2620

1. Check if the system is ready to set.

2. Press the Full setting key on the keypad.

3. If One-Key Setting is disabled, enter your user code.

3.6.4. Part Setting

Part setting is designed for when the occupant intends to remain inside one part of the premises and secure another part.

To partially set the system using the front panel keypad or Wireless Keypad:

1. Check if the system is ready to set.

2. Press the Part setting key on the keypad.

3. If One-Key Setting is disabled, enter your user code.

Page 24

3 Basic System Operation

CommPact Installation Manual

3.6.5. Perimeter Setting

Perimeter setting is designed for when the occupant intends to remain inside the premises and secure the perimeter.

To set the system’s perimeter using the front panel keypad or Wireless Keypad:

1. Check if the system is ready to set.

2. Press the Perimeter setting key on the keypad.

3. If One-Key Setting is disabled, enter your user code.

3.6.6. Combination Setting

The system allows you to activate a combination of two setting methods. If you Perimeter set the system, you may also activate Full or Part setting. Likewise, you can Perimeter set the system after activating Full or Part setting. It is not important which setting mode you choose first.

You can activate the second setting mode only during the exit delay of the first setting mode. When the first exit delay expires, you cannot activate a second setting mode.

For combination setting, perform the following procedure:

1. Check if the system is ready to set.

2. Activate the first setting mode.

3. If One-Key Setting is disabled, enter your user code.

4. While the exit delay of the first setting mode is counting down, activate the second setting mode.

5. If One-Key Setting is disabled, enter your user code.

• It is not possible to activate Full and Part setting modes simultaneously. It is

necessary to unset first when changing from one setting mode to another setting mode.

The exit delays of the two setting modes are entirely independent. The moment a setting mode is activated, its exit delay begins to count down. The entry delay depends on which detector was tripped first. For example, if the detector is included in Full setting, the entry delay for Full setting counts down – see p.42, 7.3.2 Set. If the detector is included in both activated setting modes, the entry delay for Perimeter setting counts down.

Unsetting cancels both active setting modes.

3.6.7. Unsetting

When an entry/exit detector is tripped, the entry delay counts down; each setting method has its own entry delay.

To unset the system:

• Enter a valid user code, the system is unset.

You can only unset all the active setting modes.

Page 25

CommPact Installation Manual

3.7. Additional Setting Options

3.7.1. Forced Setting

Forced setting enables you to set the system when the system is not ready. For example, if a door protected by a magnetic contact is open, you may set the system on condition that the door will be closed by the end of the Exit delay. If the door is still open after the exit delay expires, an alarm is generated.

Two conditions enable you to perform Forced setting:

• Forced setting is enabled – see p. 53, 9.2.1 Forced .

• The detector that is causing the System Not Ready condition is Force Set enabled – see

p.43, 7.3.6 Force .

3.7.2. Instant Setting

Instant setting is a feature that allows you to cancel the entry delay after Part or Perimeter setting the system. For this feature to function, it must be enabled in programming – see p. 54, 9.2.4 Instant

3.7.3. Remote Setting/Unsetting via SMS

You can set and unset the system remotely by sending the SMS commands from a cellular phone. Additionally, you can check the set status of the system by sending an Set Status request message.

Each SMS command contains the following elements:

 SMS Command Descriptor (up to 43 characters of free text)  # (delimiter – separates the descriptor from the actual command)  User Code (4 digits)  Command (120=Unset, 121=Full Set, 122=Part Set, 123=Perimeter Set, 124=Full + Perimeter Set, 125=Part +

Perimeter Set, 200 = Set Status)

The following example shows the format of an SMS command for setting the system:

   

FU L L SET#1234121

While the SMS Command Descriptor is optional, you must start the SMS command with the # symbol for the system to accept the command.

After an SMS command is executed by the system, you can program the system to return a confirmation message to the sender – see p. 72, 10.7.5 SMS Confirmation.

3.7.4. Set Status Reply

The Engineer code and the Central Station TWA Code can be edited only by the engineer.

Page 29

4 Advanced System Operation

CommPact Installation Manual

Code 1: Master Code

The Master code is the highest user authorization level. With the Master code, you can edit all other user codes except the Engineer code, the Guard code and the Central Station TWA Code. Additionally, the Master code grants access to the Event Log, and the Service menu. The Master code is a "controlled" code. Setting and unsetting using this code causes the Control System to notify the central station with an Set/Unset event message*.

The default Master code is 1234. Change this code immediately after installing the system!

Codes 2-19: Controlled Codes*

When you use a controlled user code for setting and unsetting, the Control System notifies the central station with an Set/Unset event message.

Codes 20-25: Non-controlled Codes

Non-controlled codes do not cause the Control System to send Set/Unset event messages to the central station. The Control System sends a Unset message only if you use this code to unset the system after an alarm occurrence.

Codes 26-27: Limited Codes

A Limited code enables the user to issue a code that is valid for one day only. This code automatically expires 24 hours after it has been programmed. These codes are "controlled" in that their use for Set/Unset is notified to the central station.

Code 28: Duress Code

The Duress code is designed for situations where the user is being forced to operate the system. This user code grants access to the selected operation, while sending a Duress event message to the central station.

Code 29: Telecontrol Code

The Telecontrol code is designed to enable the user to perform a number of tasks via their telephone using DTMF commands. Using this code, the user can call their system to set and unset, activate and deactivate the PGM output, cancel sounder activation or establish Two-Way Audio communication.

Code 30: Central Station TWA Code

The Central Station TWA code is designed to enable the central station operator to establish TwoWay Audio communication with the Control System after an alarm. This code is valid for use for the first ten minutes after an alarm has occurred. This code can only be used for this specific purpose and does not grant access to any additional system functions such as unsetting.

Code 31: Guard Code

Guard Code is an option that allows a security guard to check the premise in case of an alarm.

Only if arm/unset event group is enabled in System Programming

5 Telecontrol and Two-Way Audio

CommPact Installation Manual

5. Telecontrol and Two-Way Audio

The CommPact Control System offers a range of Telecontrol features that provide remote access via the telephone. These features include Two-Way Audio, remote setting/unsetting and cancel sounder activation. This chapter explains these features and their operating procedures.

Telecontrol features can be separated into two fundamental groups; incoming and outgoing calls. These groups differ in their associated features.

5.1. Incoming Calls

The Control System can receive incoming calls from either the user or central station operator. Users may use this feature as a convenient way of contacting their family, operating their system or to check their home when they are away. Additionally, the monitoring service can contact the user in the event of an emergency or use this feature for listen-in alarm verification.

For any of the incoming Telecontrol features to function, Telecontrol must be enabled in the Communication Options section of the Programming menu – see p. 69, 10.6.9 Incoming Calls.

5.1.1. User Code Verification

To prevent unauthorized attempts to connect with the Control System, there are two user codes designed for use with the Telecontrol features. The Telecontrol code enables the user to establish communication with the Control System at any time. Additionally, the Central Station TWA Code is used exclusively for Two-Way Audio alarm verification and is only valid for a ten-minute period following an alarm.

5.1.2. Incoming Calls via PSTN

In the case of PSTN communication, the Control System often shares a line with regular telephone handsets, an answering machine or a fax machine. It is therefore important that the Control System distinguish between calls so that it knows when to pick up the relevant call. For this purpose the CommPact Control System employs a double call method.

To connect to the Control System using the double call method:

1. Dial the telephone number of the line connected to the Control System.

2. Wait for two or three rings and hang-up.

3. Wait at least five seconds and dial the number again; on the second ring, the Control System picks up and sounds two DTMF tones.

5.1.3. Incoming Calls via a Cellular Network

The Control System has its own individual telephone number and therefore, the double call method is not needed. In this case, the user or central station operator may call the Control System directly.

5.1.4. Telecontrol Call Procedure

The following procedure explains how to make a Telecontrol call. The conditions and procedure differ when using PSTN or Cellular Communication. For further information, see the entire section

5.1 Incoming Calls.

To make a Telecontrol call:

1. Call the Control System either using the double call method (PSTN) or directly (Cellular); when the Control System picks up, two DTMF tones are sounded.

2. Enter the Telecontrol code (Code 29) on your telephone within 15 seconds.

Page 39

5 Telecontrol and Two-Way Audio

CommPact Installation Manual

Do not enter your user code until you hear the two DTMF tones. Any digits entered before the tones are sounded are disregarded by the system.

3. A DTMF tone is sounded to indicate that the system is ready to receive commands. The following DTMF commands are available:

o Press "2" for Two-Way Audio.

If the TWA mode is defined as "Simplex" (see 70, 10.6.11, TWA Mode.), the audio channel opens in Listen mode (microphone active/speaker mute). To switch to Speak mode, press "1" on your telephone. To switch back to Listen mode, press "0" on your telephone.

During the TWA session, you can adjust the speaker volume using the arrow buttons.

o Press "3" to fully set the system. o Press "430" to activate PGM output (Unit 30) o Press "530" to deactivate PGM output (Unit 30) o Press "6" to unset the system. o Press "9" to cancel the sounder.

Set/Unset, PGM on/off, and Sounder Canceling can also be executed at any time during a Two-Way Audio session.

Error beeps (three tones) sound in case of a wrong command.

To clear the last command, press "*" or "#".

o The duration of the call is determined by the TC/VM Timeout -- see p.70, 10.6.10

Telecontrol/Vocal Message Timeout. Ten seconds before the timeout expires, two short DTMF tones are sounded. To extend the call, press "7" on your telephone. This command restarts the timeout.

4. To disconnect before the end of the timeout, press "*" then "#" on your telephone.

5.1.5. Set/Unset DTMF Commands

During a Telecontrol call, you can set and unset the system remotely using the DTMF commands 3" (set) and "6" (unset). When setting the system in this way, the system is set immediately without an exit delay.

5.1.6. PGM DTMF commands

During a Telecontrol call, you can activate and deactivate PGM using the DTMF commands "430" (PGM On) and "530" (PGM Off).

5.1.7. Sounder Cancel ("Bell Cancel")

The sounder is muted during Two-Way Audio communication. At the end of the call, the sounder is reactivated (if the Sounder Cut-Off has not yet expired). During the call, pressing "9" on your telephone cancels the re-activation of the sounder.

5.1.8. Central Station Two-Way Audio

Central Station Two-Way Audio is an alarm verification feature that enables the central station operator to establish Two-Way Audio communication with the Control System within ten minutes of an alarm.

Page 40

5 Telecontrol and Two-Way Audio

CommPact Installation Manual

To make a Central Station TWA call:

2. Enter the Central Station TWA code (Code 30) on your telephone within 15 seconds.

Do not enter your user code until you hear the two DTMF tones. Any digits entered before the tones are sounded are disregarded by the system.

3. If the TWA mode is defined as "Simplex"(see p.70, 10.6.11 TWA Mode), the audio channel opens in Listen mode (microphone active/speaker mute). To switch to Speak mode, press "1" on your telephone. To switch back to Listen mode, press "0" on your telephone.

4. The duration of the call is determined by the TC/VM Timeout -- see p. 70, 10.6.10 Telecontrol/Vocal Message Timeout. Ten seconds before the timeout expires, two short DTMF tones are sounded. To extend the call, press "7" on your telephone. This command restarts the timeout.

5. To disconnect before the end of the timeout, press "*" then "#" on your telephone.

5.2. Outgoing Calls

The CommPact Control System can make Two-Way Audio calls to the user or central station in the event of an alarm. This feature is designed for medical, panic alarms, and for alarm verification.

5.2.1. Service Call

The Service Call feature enables the user to establish a two-way audio connection with the central station operator. For further information on how to program this feature, see p. 67 , 10.5 Service Call.

To initiate a Service Call:

• Press the up arrow key press and hold Service Call key for a few seconds.

The Control System starts to dial.

5.2.2. TWA Alarm Reporting

In the event of Burglary, Fire and Medical alarms, the Control System is able to report the events and then stay on the line after acknowledgment is received (ACK 2). This allows the operator to verify the alarm or provide assistance in the event of an emergency.

For this feature to function, you must enable Two-Way Audio for both the account and the event group.

The sequence for Two-Way Audio during alarm reporting is as follows:

1. An alarm event is sent to the central station and acknowledgment is received (ACK 2).

2. If Two-Way Audio is enabled for the account and event group, the Control System stays on the line and opens the audio channel.

3. If the TWA mode is defined as "Simplex" (see p.70, 10.6.11 TWA Mode), the audio channel opens in Listen mode (microphone active/speaker mute). The operator may switch to Speak mode, by pressing "1" on their telephone. Pressing "0" switches back to Listen mode.

4. The duration of the call is determined by the TWA/VM Timeout. Ten seconds before the timeout expires, two short DTMF tones are sounded. To extend the call, the operator presses "7" on their telephone. This command restarts the timeout.

5. To disconnect before the end of the timeout, the operator presses "*" then "#" on their telephone.

Page 41

If multiple events are sent, the Control System sends all the events before opening the audio channel.

When using the SIA protocol for event reporting, this feature functions in "listen-in"

mode only.

5.2.3. Two-Way Audio after Vocal Messages

If Two-Way Audio is enabled for a Vocal Message account, the user can open the audio channel by pressing "2" on their telephone after the system has played all of the event messages.

The sequence for Two-Way Audio after a vocal message is as follows:

1. An event occurs and the Control System calls the telephone number of the first Voice Report Account chosen.

2. When the user answers the call, the Home ID message and the relevant event message are played.

3. If Two-Way Audio is enabled for the Voice Report account, the user presses "2" on their telephone to open the audio channel.

4. The duration of the call is determined by the TWA/VM Timeout. Ten seconds before the timeout expires, two short DTMF tones are sounded. To extend the call, the user presses "7" on their telephone. This command restarts the timeout.

5. To disconnect before the end of the timeout, the user presses "*" then "#" on their telephone.

5.2.4. TWA Follow-Me

The TWA Follow-Me feature is designed to establish a Two-Way Audio connection with the user in the event of an alarm. For this feature to function, the account’s protocol must be defined as TWA Follow-Me.

The sequence for a Two-Way Audio Follow-Me call is as follows:

1. An alarm occurs.

2. The Control System dials the programmed telephone number and sounds two DTMF tones when you pick up the call.

3. Press "2" on your telephone; the Control System opens the audio channel.

If you press "9" to answer the call, the Control System simultaneously cancels the sounder when opening the audio channel.

4. If the TWA mode is defined as "Simplex", (see p. 68, 10.6.11 TWA Mode), the audio channel opens in Listen mode (microphone active/speaker mute). To switch to Speak mode, press "1" on your telephone. To switch back to Listen mode, press "0" on your telephone.

5. The duration of the call is determined by the TWA/VM Timeout. Ten seconds before the timeout expires, two short DTMF tones are sounded. To extend the call, press "7" on your telephone. This command restarts the timeout.

6 PGM Control

CommPact Installation Manual

6. PGM Control

The purpose of this chapter is to explain the various methods used to control PGM output. PGM is a programmable output that is triggered according to specific system status conditions, or by remote command sent via PSTN, GSM, keyfobs explained below.

6.1. Keyfob Control

You can control PGM using any of the four button keyfobs registered to the system. For further information on how to assign keyfob B2 button to PGM, see p. 45, 7.4.2 PGM Assignment.

6.2. Telephone Control

You can send On and Off commands to PGM output by SMS messages sent from a cellular phone to the Control System. Alternatively, PGM can be controlled by DTMF commands during Telecontrol call (either cellular or landline). For this feature to function correctly, Telephone control must be enabled for PGM – see p.56, 9.6.1 Output Trigger.

6.2.1. DTMF Command

Using the Telecontrol feature, you can turn on and off PGM output via the telephone with DTMF commands. For further information on the Telecontrol features, see p. 35 5 Telecontrol and Two- Way Audio and PGM DTMF commands.

6.2.2. SMS Command Format

Each SMS command for PGM control must contain the following elements:



SMS Command Descriptor (Optional, up to 43 characters of free text)



User Code (4 digits)



Delimiter # (Mandatory, separates the descriptor from the actual command)



Command (0=Off, 1=On)



Device Number (30 for PGM output)

The following example shows the format of an SMS command to switch PGM On.

    

P G M ON#1234130

While the SMS Command Descriptor is optional, you must start the SMS command with the # symbol for the system to accept the command.

6.2.3. SMS Confirmation Message Format

After an SMS command is executed, the system can return a confirmation SMS message to the sender. This message includes the PGM descriptor and the command that was sent. For further information on how to enable this feature, see p. 72, 10.7.5 SMS Confirmation.

This message is sent when the parameter ‘SMS Confirm’ (Programming, Communications, Comm. Options, GSM Options, SMS Confirm [954135]) is Enabled.

The following example shows the confirmation message the sender receives for the sample command from the previous section:

PGM ON

2. Select a device type.

3. From the device’s sub-menu, select Descriptor.

4. Edit the descriptor using the alphanumeric keypad.

5. Press '√ʹ when you have ﬁnished editing.

7.2. Wireless Devices

7.2.1. Registering Wireless Devices

For the system to recognize individual devices, each device must be registered to the system. For example, if the device is a wireless transmitter, registration enables the system to identify the source of a received transmission. Each device has an individual encrypted ID code. Registering the device to the system familiarizes the system with this code.

To register a device to the system:

1. From the Programming menu, select Devices [91].

2. Select the type of transmitter you want to register. For example, if you want to register a wireless detector to a zone, select Zones.

3. Select the specific device you want to register (for example, Zone 4); the system initiates Registration mode. During Registration mode, the system waits for two transmissions from the device.

4. Register the device – refer to each device’s installation instructions in Appendix B for further details.

5. When two transmissions have been received, Save? is displayed.

6. Press '√ʹ to confirm registration.

7.2.2. Deleting Wireless Devices

When you want to remove a device from the system, you have to delete the device. It is important to delete unused devices for two reasons. Firstly, you have to delete a device before you can register a new transmitter in its place. Secondly, if the device is a wireless detector, it is important to delete the device so that the system will not react to the transmitter’s failure to send supervision signals.

Page 44

7 Devices

CommPact Installation Manual

To delete a device:

1. From the Programming menu, select Devices, [91].

2. Select the specific device you want to delete.

3. From the device’s sub-menu, select Delete.

4. Press '√ʹ to conﬁrm; the device is deleted.

7.2.3. Supervision Time

The detectors in Electronics Line 3000’s supervised wireless range send a supervision signal approximately 20 minutes after its last transmission. If the system does not receive supervision signals from a specific transmitter, the transmitter is regarded as inactive.

The amount of time after which a transmitter is considered inactive is called the Supervision Time. There is a separate supervision time for general transmitters and devices that are registered to Fire zones.

To program the Supervision Time for general transmitters:

1. From the Programming menu, select Devices, Superv. Time, General [9161].

2. Enter a supervision time between 02:00 and 23:59 hours. To program the Supervision Time for transmitters registered to Fire zones:

1. From the Programming menu, select Devices, Superv. Time, Fire [9162].

2. Enter a supervision time between 02:00 and 23:59 hours.

7.2.4. Re-Synchronization

Transmissions that are out of synchronization are rejected by the system. For example, it is not possible to set or unset the system using a keyfob that is out of synchronization. In the event that a transmitter is out of synchronization, it is possible to re-synchronize the transmitter and restore normal operation.

To re-synchronize transmitters:

• From the Programming menu, select Devices, TX Re-synch [917]; a 10-minute time

window is opened. During the 10-minute time window, if a transmission is received that is out of

synchronization, the transmitter is re-synchronized.

7.3. Zones

The CommPact Control System supports Electronics Line 3000’s supervised wireless range of transmitters that includes various PIR detectors, magnetic contacts and smoke detectors. All these transmitters send supervision signals to the Control System's receiver in order to indicate that the transmitter is functional.

Control System includes 33 security zones. Zones 1-32 are intended for wireless detectors by default. Only one detector can be registered to each zone.

Zone 33 is an on-board hardwire zone. This zone is programmed in the same way as the wireless zones with the exception of registration and deletion.

This section explains the programming exclusive to detectors. For information on registration, descriptor editing, and deletion, see p. 39, 7.1, 7.2.1, 7.2.2. The zone menu is displayed according to the zone type (see below).

PIR Detectors (EL-2645/EL-2645PI)

The EL-2645 and EL-2645PI are Wireless Motion PIR Detector designed for use with Electronics Line supervised wireless range of receivers. All these detectors implement a feature to combat the problem of multiple transmissions, which drastically reduce the life of the batteries. After each transmission, there is a four-minute delay during which further transmissions will not be sent. When batteries need replacing, the detector sends a low battery indication to the Control System. The EL-2645PI is designed for pet installations and provides good immunity to nuisance alarms caused by pets and animals.

Detectors that meet the EN-50131 standard, have a three-minute delay between transmissions.

Figure B- 1: PIR Detector with Cover Removed – EL-2645/EL-2645PI

Considerations before Installation

• Select a location from which the pattern of the detector is most likely to be crossed by

a burglar, should there be a break in.

• Do not place bulky objects in front of the detector.

• Avoid a location that comes in direct contact with radiators, heating/cooling ducts or

air conditioners.

• Do not place the detector in front of windows subject to direct sunlight or drafts.

Pet Immunity Guidelines (EL-2645PI)

It is expected that the EL-2645PI will eliminate false alarms caused by:

• Animals up to 36kg/80lbs

• Several small rodents

• Random flying birds.

The weight of the animal should only be used as a guide; other factors such as the length and color of fur also affect the level of immunity.

Page 92

Appendix B: Transmitter Installation

CommPact Installation Manual

For maximum pet immunity the following guidelines are recommended:

• Mount the center of the detector at a height of 2.0m.

• Do not aim the detector at stairways that can be climbed by an animal.

• Avoid a location where an animal can come within 1.8m (6') of the detector by

climbing on furniture, boxes or other objects.

Installation Procedure

To install PIR detectors:

1. Open the housing by removing the front cover. To do so, insert a screwdriver in the release slot (located at the bottom of the detector between the front and back cover). Turn the screwdriver 90º to release the cover.

2. Remove the PCB by turning counter-clockwise and removing the 'PCB Screw'.

Do not touch the face of the PYRO sensor.

3. Apply battery power by removing the isolator that separates the battery from the contacts on the battery holder.

4. From the Programming menu, select Devices, Zones [911] and select the zone to which you want to register the transmitter.

5. Cause a Tamper or Alarm transmission and wait for the receiver to indicate that the transmitter has been registered successfully. When Save? appears on the Control System’s LCD display, press '√ʹ. Write the number of the zone and the transmi$er number (if applicable) on the sticker provided. Affix the sticker inside the front cover for future reference.

Alternatively, the Detector can be registered to the receiver by manually entering the transmitter's serial number.

6. Choose an appropriate mounting height from 2.2 – 2.5 and test the transmitter from the exact mounting position before permanently mounting the unit.

♦ If you choose mounting height other than recommended (which is not advised), please perform a walk test to check the lens coverage. The recommended mounting height is the best in terms of detection area.

7. Knock out the mounting holes and attach the base to the wall.

8. If using the rear tamper switch, insert a screw into the rear tamper mounting hole located in the center of the back cover. When the detector is removed from the wall, the screw causes the tamper release to break away from the back cover and the rear tamper switch is released.

The receiver allocates a transmitter number to each registered unit. Write this number and the number of the zone on the sticker provided. Affix the sticker inside the front cover for future reference.

3. After a warm-up period of 130 sec. indicated by both LEDs' blinking, the detector automatically enters Radio Mode for 4 minutes approximately and sends transmissions every 8 seconds, then it enters Regular mode – see Operation and Adjustment, Selectable Operation Modes below.

4. Knock out the mounting holes and test the transmitter from the exact mounting position before permanently mounting the unit. The EL-2650XL can be wall or ceiling mounted.

The "Alarm" arrow on the PCB (see Figure B- 4 and Figure B- 5) must point inward (i.e. towards the protected area). The recommended height is 2.2 m. If you choose mounting height other than recommended (which is not advised), please perform a walk test to check the lens coverage. The recommended mounting height is the best in terms of detection area.

5. Attach the base to the wall with two screws. If using the Back Tamper switch, insert a screw into the Back Tamper hole (see Figure B- 6) instead of the lower mounting hole. When the detector is removed from the wall, the screw causes the tamper release to break away from the back cover and the Back Tamper switch is released.

Figure B- 6: Back Tamper Release

6. Mount the PCB at the required setting using the horizontal adjustment scale and tighten the PCB screw – see Operation and Adjustment, PCB Adjustment below. Attach the front cover and replace the cover screw.

Operation and Adjustment

PCB Adjustment

PCB adjustment enables you to angle the infrared beams by changing the position of the pyro element in relation to the lens. To adjust the PCB, loosen the PCB screw and slide the PCB to the required position using the PCB adjustment scale as a guide. After adjusting the board, tighten the PCB screw. Slide the board towards -2 to position the beams closer to the wall. Slide the board towards +2 to position the beams further away from the wall. For the correct PCB adjustment, you must take into account the distance of the detector from the wall and the distance of the protected door/window from the detector – see Table B- 2 as illustrated in Figure B- 7 are relevant both to wall and ceiling mounting.

It is not recommended to mount the unit less than 40cm away from the path of entry protected by the detector.

Walk Test

A walk test determines the coverage pattern of the detector. To perform this test, walk across the scope of the detector according to the detection pattern selected. Confirm that the LEDs activate and deactivate as described in Table B- 5. To launch the Walk Test from the Radio mode, after any transmission indicated by LED blinking, press the tamper switch and hold it until the green LED turns on then off (see Figure B- 8, step 1). Release the tamper switch and wait until the red LED turns on and then off (see Figure B- 8, step 2). Press the tamper switch once again. Both LEDS are lit momentarily (see Figure B- 8, step 3). The detector enters the Walk Test mode for 4 minutes. During the Walk Test, wait for twenty seconds between movements. To launch the Walk Test from the Normal mode: Just open the detector housing: the tamper is triggered and the detector enters the Walk Test mode for 4 minutes. Walk test should be performed weekly.

In Walk Test mode there are no delays.

Figure B- 8: Launching the Walk Test from Radio Mode

Selectable Operation Modes

The detector operates in two operation modes. In Directional Mode, crossing the infrared beams is alarm-protected in one direction only. The protected direction is shown by the arrow printed on the PCB. In case of crossing the beams from the non-permitted side (ALARM), red LED is lit for a second. In case of crossing the beams from the permitted side (NO ALARM), green LED is lit for a second and the Alarm delay (see below) starts to count down. In Curtain mode, crossing the beams is alarm-protected in both directions. The Operation mode (Directional/Curtain) is selected using the Mode Jumper – see Table B-3.

Page 98

Appendix B: Transmitter Installation

CommPact Installation Manual

Alarm Delay

The Alarm Delay is a feature designed to allow the occupant to move freely within the protected area without triggering a false alarm. When approaching the protected wall, an alarm is not generated because the detector’s beams are crossed from the permitted direction. After detecting permitted motion, the detector counts down the Alarm Delay time. This timer is re-triggered every time the detector detects motion. During the Alarm Delay, the detector permits motion in both directions. The duration of the alarm delay is selected using the Alarm Delay Jumper – see Table B-4.

LED Indication

The LED indicator turns red to indicate non-permitted motion and green to indicate motion detection in either direction. In the event of an alarm, the LED turns red. To disable the LED, remove the LED Jumper, JP1 located next to the LED indicator – see Table B- 5.

Do not disable the LED until you have successfully walk tested the detector.

PIR Supervision

The circuit operation of the PIR is checked once per hour. In the event of PIR failure the red LED flashes.

Battery Replacement

Open the housing by removing the front cover (see Installation Instructions), replace the battery, and close the front cover.

Close the front cover immediately after each battery replacement.
