Installation & Operating Manual

FOREWORD

All devices in this wireless Alarm System are designed and manufactured to provide long reliable service. The system is designed for ease of installation using only conventional domestic tools. However, it is essential that the installer reads and fully understands the advice and procedures contained in this manual and plans the system before proceeding with the installation.

During installation, it is important that the procedures described in this manual are followed in sequence.

This manual should be retained in a safe place for future reference.

IMPORTANT: All devices, with the exception of the

External Siren are suitable for mounting in dry interior locations only.

DECLARATION

Novar ED&S hereby declares that this wireless alarm system is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of the Radio and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment (R&TTE) directive, 1999/5/EC.

EVICE RANGE

The quoted range of the system devices (see component specification on rear cover) is measured in ideal conditions. Any solid object (e.g. walls, ceilings, reinforced PVC doors etc) placed between the transmitter and Receiver device will reduce the radio range.

The amount by which the range will be reduced is dependant upon the nature of the barrier.

For example:

Wall Type Range Reduction

Dry-lined partition wall: 10 - 30% Single layer brick wall: 20 - 40% Double layer brick wall: 30 - 70% Metal panel/radiator: 90 - 100%

Note: The effect on the range of multiple walls is cumulative, i.e. if there are 2 brick walls in the way, the range will be reduced by up to 40% by each wall.

SYSTEM SECURITY

This system has been designed to both detect intruders and act as a strong deterrent to would-be intruders when installed correctly.

We recommend that your Alarm is used in conjunction with good physical protection such as security window and door locks.

All units in the system are encoded to operate together using a 20 bit House Code.

The system is operated from one or more Remote Control Units and/or Keypads - depending on which system and/or accessories purchased.

SAFETY

Always follow the manufacturers advice when using power tools; steps, ladders etc. and wear suitable protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles) when drilling holes etc.

Before drilling holes in walls, check for hidden electricity cables and water pipes, the use of a cable/pipe locater maybe advisable if in doubt.

When using ladders, ensure that they are positioned on a firm stable surface at the correct angle and suitably secured before use.

The use of ear defenders is advisable when working in close proximity to the Siren due to the high sound level produced by this device.

IMPORTANT:

LOCAL AUTHORITY REGULATIONS AND LEGISLATION

This alarm system should be installed and operated in accordance with the requirements of any current local and /or national regulations and legislation. We recommend that you contact your authority to obtain details of your area's requirements regarding intruder alarm installations.

For example in Belgium, the installation and use of an alarm system including notification by telephone (Voice Dialler) functionality and the optional use of an external siren is controlled by Belgium legislation "KB" of 19/06/2002.

SYSTEM ARMING

he system has a ‘Full Arm’ and a ‘Part-Arm’ facility.

ull Arm will arm all zones while the ‘Part-Arm’ mode

ill only arm the zones that are selected and enabled

or “Part-Arm”.

or example:

he system could be configured so that during night time, ‘Part-Arm’ would arm only zones protecting the lower floor and outbuildings leaving the upper floor free for movement without triggering the alarm.

However, when the property is left unoccupied, the ‘Full Arm’ mode will arm all zones to protect the entire property, (i.e. upper and lower floors and outbuildings).

ENTRY/EXIT DELAY

Each zone can be programmed to be Armed in either Instant or Delay mode.

Usually the zone covering the main entrance door and the route to and from the Control Panel would be configured to Delay mode. This allows time for the user to exit the property after setting the system at the Control Panel or to Disarm the system before the alarm triggers when re-entering the property. The remaining zones would be configured as Instant allowing them to sound the alarm immediately a detector on a zone is triggered.

Delay Armed zones will not become fully armed until after the Entry/Exit delay period has ended. When a detector on a Delay Armed zone is triggered, an

alarm condition will not be triggered

until after the Entry/Exit period has ended. If the system is not disarmed during the delay period, the alarm will sound when the delay period expires.

Instant Armed zones are immediately able to initiate an alarm as soon as the system begins to arm.

Note: To conserve power and maximise battery life the PIR Detector will only detect movement if there has been no movement detected within the previous 2 minutes. Consequently the PIR Detector will not become active until the protected area has been free from movement for at least 3 minutes.

ZONES

The system incorporates 6 wireless intruder zones for the connection of the detectors used to independently monitor different areas of the property and 1 dedicated Fire zone. In addition to standard intruder protection, each zone can also be configured to operate in alternative modes.

For example:

– ‘Fire’ mode provides 24 hour monitoring of any

Fire/Smoke detectors incorporated into the system.

ZONE LOCKOUT

If a detector on an active zone is triggered while the system is armed, the alarm will sound. After the programmed alarm duration has ended, the alarm will stop and the system will automatically reset. Subsequent detectors triggered will again trigger an alarm. If a single zone triggers an alarm more than 3 times then that zone will become ‘Locked Out’ and any further alarm signals from that zone will be ignored until the system is disarmed.

Note: The ‘Zone Lockout’ feature can be disabled if required (see page 27).

TAMPER PROTECTION

All system devices (except any Remote Control Units) incorporate Tamper protection features to protect against unauthorised attempts to interfere with the device.

Any attempt to remove the battery cover from any device (except a Remote Control) or to remove the Solar Siren or Control Panel from the wall will trigger

INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

Part-Arm

the alarm even if the system is Disarmed (unless the system is in Test or Program modes).

JAMMING DETECTION

In order to detect any attempts to illegally jam the radio channel used by your alarm system, a special jamming detection function is incorporated into the Control Panel. If this feature is enabled, an alarm will be triggered if the radio channel is jammed continuously for more than 30 seconds or if the system is jammed for more than 3 periods of 10 seconds in a 5 minute period. At full alarm it will beep for 3 seconds and will alarm after 10 seconds, at Part Arm it will beep for 3 seconds.

The jamming detection circuit will constantly scan for jamming signals. However, it will also detect and could in extreme cases be triggered by radio signals from other radio equipment within range operating on the same frequency which would not interfere with the normal operation of your alarm.

When activating jamming detection the system should be monitored carefully for false jamming alarms for at least 2 weeks before leaving the Jamming Detection function permanently enabled.

BATTERY MONITORING

All devices powered by non-rechargeable batteries incorporate a battery level monitoring feature which will warn of a low battery status.

In addition the Control Panel will also indicate a low battery status on any PIR (Passive Infra-Red) or Door /Window

Detector on the system.

The batteries on any device indicating a low battery status should be replaced immediately.

USER ACCESS CODE

The Control Panel is the heart of the system and is where the system is programmed and operated from. A 4 digit code is used to ensure that only authorised people have access to the system. This is the User access code and can be set to a code of

your choice that only you and other authorised system users know.

PLANNING AND EXTENDING YOUR ALARM SYSTEM

Before attempting to install your Alarm System it is important to study your security requirements and plan your installation accordingly.

PIR Movement Detectors are used to protect the main areas of the property, (e.g. lounge, study, hallway and landing).

Door /Window

Detectors are typically used to protect the main access points to the property, (e.g. front door, back door, patio doors etc). However, they can also be used to protect other vulnerable doors/ windows or access doors to important rooms.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION

The following example (right) shows a typical property incorporating the suggested positions for the External Siren, PIR and

Door /Window Detectors. Use this as a guide for your installation in conjunction with the detailed positioning requirements for each device provided in the appropriate installation sections in this manual for planning your intruder alarm system.

Typical Installation using only the detectors supplied:

1. Place the 1st

Door /Window

Detector (configured

on zone 1) on the front door.

2. Place the 1st PIR Detector (also configured on

zone 1) in the hall covering the Control Panel and routes between downstairs rooms.

Place the 2nd

Door/ Window

Detector (configured

on zone 2) on the back or patio doors.

4. Place the 2nd PIR Detector either

i) downstairs in the main living room containing

most valuables, (set on zone 3), or

ii) upstairs on the landing covering the access

routes between bedrooms and the stairs, (set on zone 5). This will be inactive if Part-Arm is used.

The system may be expanded with additional detectors, Remote Controls and Keypads to provide even greater

If you are planning to operate the Jamming Detection feature we recommend that you wait at least 30 days before activating this feature to allow time for you to become familiar with the operation of your system.

protection. However, the following rules should be followed:

a. Any detectors covering the main door and the

route to the Control Panel should be set on zone 1 only.

b. Any detectors covering the remainder of the lower

floor should be set on zones 2 to 4 only.

c. Any detectors placed upstairs should be set on

zones 5 or 6 only.

The pre-configured system defaults provide a basic functional system which will suit most installations, (i.e. a 2 floor house.

The systems factory settings are pre-configured to provide a basic functional system to suit most typical basic installations:

●

The system has a 3 minute alarm duration.

●

The Zone Lockout feature is ON so that if any single zone triggers an alarm more than 3 times,

alarm signals from that zone will be ignored until the system is next re-armed.

●

Detectors on Zone 1 (typically the front door and hallway) will have a 30 second entry/exit delay period.

●

Detectors on all other zones are configured as INSTANT, (i.e. they have no entry/exit delay).

●

Part-Arm is configured to operate with detectors on zones 1 to 4 only.

Note: If you wish to change the system configuration away from the above example and factory settings and customise it to your own unique requirements or activate any of the more advanced system features then refer to the Programming section on page 26.

This manual also covers installation and operation for accessories, which may not be supplied with this alarm kit. When purchasing accessories, please refer to the manual supplied with the accessories for further information on these items.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

The Remote Control Unit(s) is used to Arm in either Arm or Part Arm modes and to Disarm the system.

The Remote Control Unit also incorporates a Personal Attack (PA) button. Pressing and holding the

PA button

for 3 seconds will immediately trigger an Alarm (unless the Control Panel is in Test or Program Modes) even if the system is disarmed. The alarm can be cancelled using the Remote Control by pressing the ’DISARM’ button.

Up to a total of 6 Remote Controls and/or Keypad Units can be used with your system, providing they are all operated within effective radio range of the Control Unit.

The Remote Control is powered by a CR2032 type Lithium cell which under normal conditions will have an expected life of approximately 1 year. Under normal battery conditions the Transmit LED on the Remote Control will only illuminate when a button is pressed.

However, under low-battery conditions this LED will continue to flash after the button has been released. When this occurs the battery should be replaced as soon as possible.

CONFIGURING THE REMOTE CONTROL

1. Remove the rear cover by using a small coin to

lever open the cover, see diagram above.

2. Insert the battery under the clip ensuring that

the +terminal faces upwards away from the Circuit Board.

3. Replace the rear cover.

TESTING THE REMOTE CONTROL

4. Press the button. The Transmit LED

should illuminate while the button is pressed and extinguish within 1 second of releasing the button.

5. Pressing any button on the Remote Control will

illuminate the Transmit LED as before to check that it is functioning correctly.

CONTROL PANEL

POSITIONING THE CONTROL PANEL

When choosing a suitable location for the Control Panel, the following points should be considered.

1. The Control Panel should be located in a

position out of sight of potential intruders and in a safe location, but easily accessible for system operation and leaving and entering the house within the set time period.

2. The Control Panel should be mounted on a sound

flat surface to ensure that the rear tamper switch on the Control Panel is closed when the Panel is

Note: If small children are in the household, a further consideration should be given to keeping the unit out of their reach.

3. It is recommended that the Control Panel should

be positioned such that the Exit/Entry tone (emitted by the Control Panel) can be heard from outside the property.

4. The Control Panel should be mounted within a

protected area so that any intruder cannot reach the Control Panel without opening a protected door or passing through an area protected by a PIR Detector when the system is armed.

5. The Control Panel must be located within

reach of a mains socket.

6. DO NOT fix the Control Panel onto or very

close to metalwork (i.e. radiators, water pipes, etc) as this could affect the radio range of the device.

INSTALLING THE CONTROL PANEL

1. Undo the two cover fixing screws on top of the

panel and open the cover. The cover is hinged along the bottom edge.

2. Unclip and remove the two back-up batteries on

either side of the panel.

3. Hold the Control Panel in position on the wall

and mark the positions of the four fixing holes. Remove the panel, drill four 5mm holes and fit the 22mm wall plugs.

Note: The wall plugs supplied with the product are not suitable for plasterboard walls. If mounting the Control Panel onto plasterboard use appropriate wall plugs.

PASSIVE INFRA-RED (PIR) MOVEMENT DETECTORS

PIR Detectors detect movement in a protected area by detecting changes in infra-red radiation levels caused for example when a person moves within or across the PIR’s detection pattern. If movement is detected an alarm will be triggered, (if the system is armed). PIR Detectors will also detect animals, so ensure that pets are not permitted access to areas fitted with PIR Detectors when the system is armed.

The Detector incorporates an anti-tamper protection feature to protect against attempts to interfere with the device. If the battery cover is removed, an alarm will immediately occur at any time, (unless the system is in Program or Test Modes).

The PIR Detector also incorporates a sensitivity adjustment feature to compensate for situations where the detector may be triggered by environmental changes, (e.g. air temperature, etc).

To conserve power and maximise battery life the PIR Detector will only detect movement if there has been no movement detected within the previous 2 minutes, (this is known as the detectors sleep period).

The PIR Detector is powered by a 9V PP3 Alkaline battery which under normal conditions will have an expected life of approximately 1 year. When the battery level drops, with the PIR in normal operation mode and the battery cover fitted, the LED behind the detection window will flash. When this occurs the battery should be replaced as soon as possible. (Note: in normal operation, the LED behind the lens will not flash on detection of movement).

Up to a maximum of 3 PIR Movement Detectors and/or Door /Window Detectors

per Zone can be used with your system, providing they are all mounted within effective radio range of the Siren.

POSITIONING THE PIR DETECTORS

The recommended position for a PIR Detector is in the corner of a room mounted at a height between 2 and 2.5 metres. At this height, the detector will have a maximum range of up to 12 metres with a field of view of 110°.

When deciding upon the mounting position for the detector the following points should be considered to ensure trouble free operation:

1. Do not position the Detector facing a window or

where it is exposed to or facing direct sunlight. PIR Detectors are not suitable for use in conservatories.

2. Do not position the Detector where it is exposed

to draughts.

3. Do not position the Detector directly above a

heat source, (e.g. fire, radiator, boiler, etc).
