D-303222 PowerMaster-10/30 G2 Installer's Guide 7

2. CHOOSING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION

To ensure the best possible mounting location of the PowerMaster control panel, the following points should be
observed:
 The selected location should be approximately in the center of the installation site between all the transmitters,

preferably in a hidden location.

 In close proximity to an AC source
 In close proximity to a telephone line connection (if PSTN is used)
 Where there is good cellular coverage, if GSM-350 PG2 is used
 Far from sources of wireless interference, such as:

o Computers or other electronic devices, power conductors, cordless phones, light dimmers, etc.
o Large metal objects (such as metal doors or refrigerators)

Note: A distance of at least 1 meter (3 ft) is recommended.

 If using the panel's built-in siren and/or voice, select location where audio can be heard throughout the premises.

When mounting wireless devices:

 Make sure that the signal reception level for each device is either "Strong" or "Good", but not "Poor".

Note: For UL/cUL installations, the test result must be "Strong" for all wireless devices.

 Wireless magnetic contacts should be installed in a vertical position and as high up the door or window as possible.
 Wireless PIR detectors should be installed upright at the height specified in their Installation Instructions
 Repeaters should be located high on the wall in mid-distance between the transmitters and the control panel.

WARNING! To comply with FCC and IC RF exposure compliance requirements, the control panel should be located at
a distance of at least 20 cm from all persons during normal operation. The antennas used for this product must not be

3.3 System Planning & Programming

Program the system now as instructed in the programming section.

The tables in APPENDIX C will help you plan and record location of each detector, the holder and assignment of each
transmitter.

3.4 GSM Module Installation

The internal GSM 350 module enables the PowerMaster-10 G2 system to operate over a GSM/GPRS cellular network
(for further details, see the GSM 350 PG2 Installation Instructions).

The GSM modem auto detection feature enables automatic enrollment of the GSM modem into the PowerMaster-10
G2 control panel memory. GSM modem auto detection is activated in one of two ways: after tamper restore and after
reset (power-up or after exiting the installer menu). This causes the PowerMaster-10 G2 to automatically scan GSM
COM ports for the presence of the GSM modem.

In the event that the GSM modem auto detection fails and the modem was previously enrolled in the PowerMaster-10
G2 control panel, the message "Cel Remvd Cnfrm" will be displayed. This message will disappear from the display only

after the user presses the button. The modem is then considered as not enrolled and no GSM trouble
message will be displayed.

Notes:

1) A message is displayed only when the PowerMaster-10 G2 alarm system is disarmed.

2) The GSM Alarm Transmission System compliance with EN 50131-1 ATS4 was proven by testing the signaling

security requirements D2, M2, T3, S1, I2” detailed in EN 50136-1-1:1998/A2: 2008, EN 50136-2-1:1998/A1: 2001,
