2. CHOOSING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION

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".  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 co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

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. Note: A message is displayed only when the PowerMaster-10 G2 alarm system is disarmed.

Plug in the GSM module and fasten it as shown in the above drawing.

5.3 Setting Installer Codes

The PowerMaster system provides two installer permission levels with separate installer codes, as follows:  Master Installer: The "Master Installer" is authorized to access all Installer Menu and sub-menu options. The

default code is: 9999 (*).

 Installer: The "Installer" is authorized to access most but not all Installer Menu and sub-menu options. The default

code is 8888 (*).  Guard Code: Enables an authorized guard to only Arm Away / Disarm the control panel. The default code is 0000 (*). The following actions can be performed only by using the Master Installer code:

 Changing the Master Installer code.  Defining specific communication parameters – see "3:C.S REPORTING" in sections 5.6.1 and 5.6.4.  Resetting the PowerMaster parameters to the default parameters – see "09:FACTORY DEFLT" in section 5.11.

Note: Not every system includes a Master Installer code feature. In such systems, the Installer can access all Installer Menu and sub-menu options the same as a Master Installer.

(*) You are expected to use the default codes only once for gaining initial access, and replace it with a secret

code known only to yourself.

To change your Master Installer or Installer Codes proceed as follows:

[3]

Enter the new 4-digit Code at the position of the blinking cursor and then press .

Notes:

1. Code "0000" is not valid for Master Installer. It is recommended NOT to use it also for the Installer.

2. Warning! Always use different codes for the Master Installer, for the Installer and for the Users. A. If the Master Installer Code is identical to the Installer code, the panel will not be able to recognize the

Master Installer. In such a case, you must change the Installer code to a different code. This will revalidate the Master Installer code.

B. If a User code is identical to the Master Installer or Installer codes, the system will no longer be able to

recognize the Installer code. In such a case, you must enter the "User Settings" menu and change the User code to a different code. This will re-validate the Installer code.

5.3.1 Identical Installer and Master Installer Codes

In a 2-installer code system, the non-master installer may inadvertently change his Installer Code to that of the Master Installer Code. In this case, the panel will allow the change in order to prevent the non-master installer from realizing the discovery of the Master Installer's Code. The next time the Master Installer enters the Installer Mode the Master Installer will be considered as an Installer and not as a Master Installer. In such a case the Master Installer should use one of the following solutions:

(a) Access the panel using the Remote Programmer PC software application and change the Master Installer Code to

a different code than the one programmed by the Installer.

(b) i) Change the Installer Code to a temporary code, ii) exit the Installer Mode, iii) enter the Installer Mode again

using the Master Installer code (the Master Installer Code will now be accepted), iv) change the Master Installer

Page 31

5. PROGRAMMING

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

code to a different code, v) and change the NON-Master Installer Code back again (in other words, undo the change to the temporary code) so that the NON-Master Installer can still enter the system.

It is also possible that a user inadvertently changes his User Code to the same code as that of the Installer Code or Master Installer Code. In this case, the installer will not be able to enter the Installer Mode. The installer should perform the same procedures as described above to solve this situation.

D-303222 PowerMaster-10/30 G2 Installer's Guide 31

How to check Panel  Device compatibility

Each PowerG device bears a 7-digit ID Number printed on the device in the format: FFF-M:DDD, (for example, 300-2963) where FFF is the frequency band and M:DDD is the variant code. For PowerG system devices compatibility, make sure the frequency (FFF) band of all devices are the same and that the variant code of the devices match the variant code on the panel. Alternatively, the first digit of the devices variant code (M) must match that of the panel and the last 3 digits of the panel’s variant code (DDD) can be any digits.

Enrollment by using Device ID

The 7-digit Device ID can be used to register a device into the panel locally or from a remote location using the Remote Programmer PC software. The enrollment by device ID is a 2 stage procedure. In the 1st stage you register the devices' ID numbers into the panel and complete the device configuration. This can be done from a remote location using the Remote Programmer PC software. Following the 1st stage, the PowerMaster panel waits for the device to appear on the network in order to complete the enrollment. In the 2nd stage, the enrollment is completed when the panel is in full working mode by inserting the battery into the device, or by pressing the tamper or enrollment button on the device. This procedure is very useful for adding devices to existing systems without the need to provide technicians with the Installer Code, or to allow access to the programming menus.

Remember! The system will indicate a "NOT NETWORKD" trouble until the 2nd stage of all registered devices is completed.

Enrollment by using the Enrollment button

The panel is set to the Enrollment mode (step #2 above) and the device is enrolled using the Enroll button (refer to the device information in the device Installation Instructions, then open the device and identify the Enroll button. For keyfobs and keypads, use the AUX '' button. For gas detectors, insert the battery.

Press the enroll button for 2-5 seconds until the LED turns ON and then release the button. The LED will extinguish or may blink for a few more seconds until the enrollment is completed. If enrollment is successfully completed, the PowerMaster sounds the "Happy Tune" and the LCD momentarily shows "DEVICE ENROLLED" and then reads the device details.

Enrollment of wired sensors

To enroll a wired sensor into the wired zone, enter ID: 050-0001 or 050-0002.

Zone Type

Description

Home Delay

Used for Door/Window Contacts and Motion sensors protecting entrance doors to interior living areas where you wish to move feely when the system is armed HOME. Functions as a "Delayed" zone when the system is armed HOME and as a "Perimeter Follower" zone when the system is armed AWAY.

Inter-Follow

Similar to "Interior" zone but temporarily ignored by the alarm system during entry/exit delay periods. Usually used for sensors protecting the route between the entrance door and the panel.

Interior

This zone type generates an alarm only when the system is armed AWAY but not when the system is armed HOME. Used for sensors, installed in interior areas of the premises, that need to be protected when people are not present inside the premises.

Perimeter

This zone type generates an alarm when the system is armed both in AWAY and HOME modes. Used for all sensors protecting the perimeter of the premises.

Perim–Follow

Similar to "Perimeter" zone, but is temporarily ignored by the alarm system during entry/exit delay periods. Usually used for sensors protecting the route between the entrance door and the control panel.

24hr silent

This zone type is active 24 hours, even when system is DISARMED. It is used to report alarm events from sensors or manually activated buttons to the monitoring station or private telephones (as programmed) without activating the sirens.

24hr audible

Similar to 24hr silent zone, but also provides an audible siren alarm.

10.

Emergency

This zone type is active 24 hours, even when the system is DISARMED. It is used to report an emergency event and to initiate an Emergency call to the monitoring stations or private telephones (as programmed).

11.

Arming Key

An Arming key zone is used to control the arming and disarming of the system by an external wired system or simple keyswitch connected to the panel's wired zone input or a wired input of a PowerG device.

Note: If the wired input of the panel or PowerG device is closed, the control panel will be armed. If it is opened, the control panel will be disarmed (refer to Figure 4.8b).

12.

Non-Alarm

This zone does not create an alarm and is often used for non-alarm applications. For example, a detector used only for sounding a chime.

17.

Guard

A Guard zone is usually connected to a metal safe containing the physical keys needed to enter the building. Following an alarm, the safe becomes available to a trusted Guard who can open the Guard-box, obtain the keys and enter the secured premises. The Guard-box zone acts just like a 24H audible zone, but, for a short period of time following an alarm, the zone is disabled (to allow access to the safe by the Guard). The Guard zone also provides automatic audible internal and external siren alarm that is immediately reported to the Monitoring Station (and does not depend on the Abort Time).

Note: Opening/closing the Guard-box causes the PowerMaster to signal the Monitoring Station.

(∗)

These Zone types are useful mainly when you arm and disarm the system from inside the protected premises. If you arm and disarm the system from outside (without tripping any sensor), such as using a keyfob, it is preferred to use the other Zone Types.

Option

Configuration Instructions

01:ENTRY DELAY1

02:ENTRY DELAY2

Two different entry delays allow the user to enter the protected site (while the system is in the armed state) via dedicated exit/entry doors and routes without causing an alarm.

Following entry, the user must disarm the control panel before the entry delay expires. Slowrate warning beeps start sounding once the door is opened, until the last 10 seconds of the delay, during which the beeping rate increases. The "ENTRY DELAY 1" and "ENTRY DELAY 2" options allow you to program the time length of these delays.

Options: 00 seconds; 15 seconds (default for entry delay 2); 30 seconds (default for entry delay 1); 45 seconds; 60 seconds; 3 minutes and 4 minutes.

Notes:

To comply with UL requirements, the entry delay must not exceed 15 sec. To comply with CP-01 requirements, "00s" and "15s" delays must not be used. To comply with EN requirements, the entry delay must not exceed 45 sec.

03:EXIT DELAY

This option allows programming the time length of the exit delay. An exit delay allows the user to arm the system and leave the protected site via specific routes and exit/entry doors without causing an alarm. Slow-rate warning beeps start sounding once the arming command has been given, until the last 10 seconds of the delay, during which the beeping rate increases.

Options: 30 sec.; 60 sec. (default); 90 sec.; 120 sec., 3 min. and 4 min.

Notes:

To comply with UL requirements, the exit delay must not exceed 120 sec. To comply with CP-01 requirements, the "30s" delay must not be used.

04:EXIT MODE

The "Exit Delay" time can be further adjusted according to your preferred exit route. The control panel provides you with the following "Exit Mode" options:

A: "normal" - The exit delay is exactly as defined. B: "restart>reentry" - The exit delay restarts when the door is reopened during exit delay.

The restart occurs once only. Restarting the exit delay is helpful if the user re-enters immediately after going out to retrieve an item that he left behind.

C: "end by exit" - The exit delay expires (ends) automatically when the exit door is closed even if the defined exit delay time was not completed.

Options: normal (default); restart>reentry and end by exit.

05:QUICK ARM

Define whether or not the user will be allowed to perform quick arming or not. Once quick arming is permitted, the control panel does not request a user code before it arms the system.

Options: OFF (default) and ON (default in USA).

06:BYPASS ARM

Define whether or not the user will be allowed to manually bypass individual zones, or allow the system to perform automatic bypassing of open zones during the exit delay (i.e. "force arm"). If a zone is open and "forced arming" is not permitted, the system cannot be armed and “NOT READY” is displayed. If "no bypass" is selected, neither manual bypassing nor force arming is allowed which means that all zones must be secured before arming.

Options: no bypass (default); force arm and manual bypass (default in USA).

Notes:

To comply with EN requirements, "manual bypass" must be selected. The option "force arm" is not applicable in the UK.

07:LATCHKEY ARM

When "ON", a “latchkey” message will be reported by voice1 or SMS message to users (see Note) upon disarming by a “latchkey user” (users 5-8 or keyfob transmitters 5-8 in PowerMaster- 10 G2 system / users 23-32 or keyfob transmitters 23-32 in PowerMaster-30 G2 system). This mode is useful when parents at work want to be informed of a child’s return from school.

Options: OFF (default) and ON.

Note: To enable the reporting, you must configure the system to report "alrt" events to Private users (Latchkey belongs to the "alerts" group of events). Refer to section 5.6.4 "REPORTED EVENTS" option in both "

VOICE REPORT

" & "

" menus.

08:DISARM OPTION

Certain regulations require that when the system is armed in AWAY mode, it may not be disarmed from the outside of the house (such as by keyfobs) before entering the protected premises and activating an "Entry Delay" zone. To answer this requirement, the PowerMaster provides you with the following configurable options to disarm the system:

A: At "any time" (default), the system can be disarmed at all times from all devices. B: During entry delay, the system can be disarmed only using keyfob or prox operated

devices ("on entry wrless").

C: During entry delay by code, the system can be disarmed only using PowerMaster panel

keypad ("entry + away kp.").

D: During entry delay, the system can be disarmed using keyfobs or by code using the

PowerMaster panel keypad ("on entry all.").

the Monitoring Station. The zone will be reactivated upon disarming, or 48 hours after having been bypassed (if the system remains armed).

Options: after 1 alarm (default); after 2 alarms (default in USA); after 3 alarms and no stop.

22:CROSS ZONING

Define whether cross zoning will be active "ON" or inactive "OFF" (default). Cross zoning is a method used to counteract false alarms - an alarm will be initiated only when two adjacent zones (zone couples) are violated within a 30-second time window. This feature is active only when the system is armed AWAY and only with respect to the following zone couples: 18+19, 20+21, 22+23, 24+25, 26+27 in PowerMaster-10 G2 system / 40+41, 42+43, 44+45, 46+47, 48+49, 50+51, 52+53, 54+55, 56+57, 58+59, 60+61, 62+63 in PowerMaster-30 G2 system.

Notes:

1. If one of the two crossed zones is bypassed (see Section 5.5.2), the remaining

zone will function independently.

2. It is recommended that crossed zones will be only zones used for detection of

burglary i.e. "Zone Types": Entry/ Exit, Interior, Perimeter and Perimeter follower.

Important! Do not define "cross zoning" to any other zone types such as Fire, Emergency, 24h audible, 24h silent etc.

Define whether or not the user will be allowed to initiate a Panic Alarm from keypads (by simultaneous pressing the two "Panic Buttons") or keyfobs (by simultaneous pressing the "Away" + "Home" buttons) and whether the alarm will be "silent" (i.e. only reporting of the event) or also audible (i.e. the sirens will also sound).

Options: audible (default); silent and disabled.

32:DURESS ALARM

(not applicable in UK)

A duress (ambush) alarm message can be sent to the Monitoring Station if the user is forced to disarm the system under violence or menace. To initiate a duress message, the user must disarm the system using a duress code (2580 by default).

To change the code, enter the new 4-digit of the new Duress code at the position of the blinking cursor or enter 0000 to disable the duress function and then press .

Notes: The system does not allow programming a duress code identical to an existing user code.

33:INACTIVE ALRT

Previously known as "NOT ACTIVE"

If no sensor detects movement in interior zones at least once within the defined time window, an “inactive alert" event is initiated.

Define the time window for monitoring the lack of motion.

Options: disabled (default); after: 3/6/12/24/48/72 hours

34:TAMPER ALARM

Define whether the Tamper switch protection of all zones and other peripheral devices (except the control panel) are "active" (default) or "not active".

Warning!: If you select "

not active

", be aware that no alarm or report will be initiated in case

of tampering with any of the system peripheral devices.

35:AC FAIL RPRT

To avoid nuisance reporting in case of short interruptions in the house of AC power, the system reports an AC Fail message only if the AC power does not resume within a predetermined time delay.

Options: after 5 minute (default), after 30 minute, after 60 minute or after 3 hours.

Note: To comply with EN requirements, the time delay must not exceed 60 min.

36:CONFIRM ALARM

5.6.5 Configuring Events Reporting to Private Users

The PowerMaster system can be programmed to send various event notifications such as alarm, arming or trouble events, to 4 Private telephone subscribers using audible signals and if a GSM option is installed, the system can send the messages also to 4 SMS telephone numbers. These reports can be programmed either instead of or in addition to the reports transmitted to the monitoring company. In this section you configure:

 The specific events you wish the system to report.  The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Private telephone and SMS numbers of the private subscribers.  The number of redial attempts, two-way voice communication1 and your preferred acknowledge method i.e.

whether a single acknowledge signal will stop the reporting process or an acknowledge signal from each telephone will be required before the reported event is considered reported.

5.6.6 Configuring Motion Cameras for Visual Alarm Verification

If equipped with a GSM/GPRS module, the PowerMaster can communicate to Monitoring Stations (equipped with Visonic PowerManage server) via the GPRS network, also with image clips captured by Motion Cameras (models Next CAM PG2 & Next-K9 CAM PG2). The Monitoring Station can use the video clips for verification of Burglary alarms detected by the Motion Cameras. The system can be configured to capture image clips also upon occurrence of NonBurglary alarms (i.e. Fire, Duress, Emergency and Panic). The server can then forward the images to the management computer of the monitoring station or to 4 remote computers via e-mail and/or 4 mobile phones by MMS images. In addition, the monitoring station can log into the PowerManage server and request the system to provide image clips "On Demand" and to forward them as defined in the PowerManage application. To protect customers' privacy, the PowerMaster can be customized to enable the "On Demand View" only during specific system modes (i.e. Disarm, Home and Away) and also to a specific time window following an alarm event. In this section you can program the 4 e-mail addresses and mobile phone numbers to which the images will be forwarded and to configure the parameters of the "On Demand View".

5.6.7 Configuring Upload / Download Remote Programming Access Permission

Using a PC computer, the PowerMaster can be configured (by upload/download) either locally or from remote via PSTN telephone line or GPRS cellular communication.

Local programming can be performed by direct connecting the computer to the panel's serial port using the Remote Programmer PC Software. Remote programming via PSTN can be performed by using a modem and the same software. The modem dials to the control panel and establishes a connection via PSTN using an agreed process. When connection is established, the installer or Master installer can access the panel using the UL/DL access codes programmed in the "PSTN UP/DOWNLOAD" menu – see table below. For further information refer to the "PowerMaster Remote Programmer Software User's Guide". Remote programming via GPRS is performed using a Visonic PowerManage server and related Remote Programmer PC software. The PowerManage server sends an SMS message from a cellular modem to the Panel's SIM card number. The panel checks the caller ID of the SMS sender and if identical with any of the two callers ID 1 or 2 programmed in the "GPRS UP/DOWNLOAD" menu (see table below), the panel initiates a GPRS connection with the respective IP Receiver 1 or 2 (as configured in section 5.6.4 options 21 & 22). When connection is established, the monitoring company can perform the upload/download procedure via the established secured GPRS connection. For further information refer to the PowerManage User's Guide

In this section you can configure the access permissions (i.e. security codes and identification) and determine the functionality of the upload/download procedures via PSTN and GPRS channels.

The DIAGNOSTICS menu enables you to test your system and to verify proper operation of your PowerMaster panel, wireless devices attached to it and the communication (GSM/GPRS) modules.

IMPORTANT! Reliable reception must be assured during the initial testing and also throughout subsequent system maintenance. A device should not be installed in location where signal strength is "poor". If you get "poor" signal strength from a certain device, simply re-locate it and re-test until a "good" or "strong" signal strength is received. This principle should be followed throughout the diagnostic test procedure.

The diagnostic test process is shown below.

APPENDIX B. Working with Partitions

D-303222 PowerMaster-10/30 G2 Installer's Guide 69

APPENDIX B. Working with Partitions1

Your alarm system is equipped with an integrated partitioning feature that can divide your alarm system into three distinct areas identified as Partition 1 through 3. A partition can be armed or disarmed regardless of the status of the other partitions within the system. Partitioning can be used in installations where shared security systems are more practical, such as a home office or warehouse building. When partitioned, each zone, each user code and many of your system's features can be assigned to Partition 1 to 3. Each user code is assigned with the list of partitions it is allowed to control in order to limit access of users to certain partitions.

When partitioning is enabled, menu displays are changed to incorporate the partition feature and also each device, user, and proximity tag has additional partitions menu, where it is assigned to certain partitions and excluded from others.

Note: When Partition Mode is disabled, all zones, user codes, and features of the control panel will operate as in a regular unit. When partition mode is enabled, all zones, user codes, and features of the control panel are automatically assigned to Partition 1.

B1. User Interface and Operation

Refer to the control panel User's Guide APPENDIX B. PARTITIONING for a detailed description of the user interface (Arming/Disarming, siren behavior, show function, etc.), and APPENDIX A for keyfobs and keypads operation in Partition Mode.

B2. Common Areas

Common areas are areas used as walkthrough zones to areas of 2 or more partitions. There may be more than one common area in an installation depending on the layout of the property. A common area is not the same as a partition; it cannot be armed / disarmed directly. Common areas are created when you assign a zone or zones to 2 or 3 partitions. Table A1 summarizes the behavior of the different zone types in a common area.

Table A1 – Common Area Definitions

Common area zone types

Definition

Perimeter

 Acts as defined only after the last assigned partition is armed AWAY or HOME.

 In case that one of the partitions is disarmed, an alarm initiated from this zone is

ignored for all assigned partitions.

Delay zones

 Delay zones will not trigger an entry delay unless all assigned partitions are armed.

It is, therefore, not recommended to define delay zones as common areas.

Perimeter follower

 Act as defined only after the last assigned partition is armed AWAY or HOME.  In case that one of the partitions is disarmed, an alarm initiated from this zone is

ignored for all assigned partitions.

 In case that one of the common area assigned partitions is in a delay state (and

the other partitions are armed), the alarm will behave as a perimeter follower for

this partition only. The event will be ignored for other assigned armed partitions.

Interior

 Acts as defined only after the last assigned partition is armed AWAY.

 In case that one of the partitions is disarmed or armed HOME, an alarm initiated

from this zone is ignored for all assigned partitions.

Interior follower

 Acts as defined only after the last assigned partition is armed AWAY.

 In case that one of the partitions is disarmed or armed HOME, an alarm initiated

from this zone is ignored for all assigned partitions.

 In case that one of the common area assigned partitions is in a delay state (and

the other partitions are armed), the alarm will behave as an interior follower for this

partition only. The event will be ignored for other assigned armed partitions.

Home / Delay

 Acts as a Perimeter-Follower type when all assigned partitions are armed AWAY.  Acts as a Delay type when at least one of the assigned partitions is armed HOME.

 Will be ignored when at least one of the assigned partitions is disarmed.

Emergency; Fire; Flood; Gas; Temperature; 24-hour silent; 24-hour audible; Non-alarm

 Always armed.

APPENDIX E. Glossary

Abort Period: When an alarm is initiated, the internal sounder is activated first for a limited period of time which is the

abort period set by the installer. If you cause an alarm accidentally, you can disarm the system within the abort period before the real sirens start and before the alarm is reported to the remote responders. Alarm: There are 2 kinds of alarms: Loud alarm - both internal and external sirens blare out constantly and the control panel reports the event by telephone.

Silent alarm - the sirens remain silent, but the control panel reports the event by telephone. A state of alarm is caused by:

 Motion detected by a motion detector

Page 75

APPENDIX E. Glossary

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

 Change of state detected by a magnetic contact detector - a closed window or door is opened  Detection of smoke by a smoke detector  Tampering with any one of the detectors  Pressing the two emergency buttons simultaneously (panic).

Arming: Arming the alarm system is an action that prepares it to sound an alarm if a zone is “violated” by motion or by opening a door or window, as the case may be. The control panel may be armed in various modes (see AWAY, HOME, INSTANT and LATCHKEY).

Assigned: Refers to zones. Associated: Refers to devices. AWAY: This type of arming is used when the protected site is vacated entirely. All zones, interior and perimeter alike,

are protected. Chime Zones: Allow you to keep track of activity in the protected area while the alarm system is in the disarmed state.

Whenever a chime zone is "opened", the buzzer beeps twice. The buzzer does not beep, however, upon closing the zone (return to normal). Residences can use this feature to annunciate visitors or look after children. Businesses can use it to signal when customers enter the premises or when personnel enter restricted areas.

Note: Your installer will never designate a 24-hour zone or a fire zone as a chime zone, because both zone types actuate an alarm if disturbed while the system is in the disarmed state.

Although one zone or more are designated as chime zones, you can still enable or disable the chime function. Communicators: Refers to communication channel, for example, GSM.

Control Panel: The control panel is a cabinet that incorporates the electronic circuitry and microprocessor that control

the alarm system. It collects information from various sensors, processes it and responds in various ways. It also includes the user-interface - control keys, numerical keypad, display, sounder and loudspeaker.

Default Settings: Settings that are applicable to a specific device group. Detector: The device (apparatus) that sends an alarm, that communicates with the control panel (for example,

Next PG2 is a motion detector, SMD-426 PG2 is a smoke detector) Disarming: The opposite of arming - an action that restores the control panel to the normal standby state. In this state, only fire and 24-hour zones will sound an alarm if violated, but a “panic alarm” may also be initiated. Disturbed Zone: A zone in a state of alarm (this may be caused by an open window or door or by motion in the field of view of a motion detector). A disturbed zone is considered “not secured”. Forced Arming: When any one of the system zones is disturbed (open), the alarm system cannot be armed. One way

to solve this problem is to find and eliminate the cause for zone disturbance (closing doors and windows). Another way to deal with this is to impose forced arming - automatic de-activation of zones that are still disturbed upon termination of the exit delay. Bypassed zones will not be protected throughout the arming period. Even if restored to normal (closed), bypassed zones will remain unprotected until the system is disarmed.

Permission to “force arm” is given or denied by the installer while programming the system. HOME: This type of arming is used when people are present within the protected site. A classic example is night-time

at home, when the family is about to retire to bed. With HOME arming, perimeter zones are protected but interior zones are not. Consequently, motion within interior zones will be ignored by the control panel, but disturbance of a perimeter zone will cause an alarm.

Instant: You can arm the system AWAY-INSTANT or HOME-INSTANT, thereby canceling the entry delay for all delay zones for the duration of one arming period. For example, you may arm the control panel in the HOME-INSTANT mode and remain within the protected area. Only perimeter protection is active, and if you do not expect somebody to drop in while the system is armed, alarm upon entry via the main door is an advantage. To disarm the system without causing an alarm, use your control keypad (which is normally accessible without disturbing a perimeter zone) or use a keyfob transmitter.

Latchkey: The Latchkey mode is a special arming mode in which designated "latchkey users" will trigger a "latchkey message" to be sent to a telephone when they disarm the system.

For example, if a parent wants to be sure that their child has returned from school and disarmed the system. Latchkey arming is only possible when the system is armed in the AWAY mode.

Location: Assigning a named location to a device (for example, Garage, Front Door etc.) Magnetic Contact Detector, Wireless: A Magnet- controlled switch and a wireless PowerG transmitter in a shared

housing. The detector is mounted on doors and windows to detect changes in state (from closed to open and vice versa). Upon sensing that a door or window is open, the detector transmits its unique identification code accompanied

by an “alarm” signal and various other status signals to the control panel. The control panel, if not armed at that time, will consider the alarm system as “not ready for arming” until it receives a “restored” signal from the same detector.

Motion Detector, Wireless: A passive Infrared motion sensor and a wireless PowerG transmitter in a shared housing. Upon sensing motion, the detector transmits its unique identification code, accompanied by an alarm signal and various other status signals to the control panel. After transmission, it stands by to sense further motion.

Non-Alarm Zone: Your installer can designate a zone for roles other than alarm. For instance, a motion detector installed in a dark stairway may be used to switch on lights automatically when someone crosses the dark area. Another example is a wireless transmitter linked to a zone that controls a gate opening mechanism. Quick Arming: Arming without a user code. The control panel does not request your user code when you press one of the arming buttons. Permission to use this arming method is given or denied by the installer while programming the system.

Remote Responder: A responder can be either a professional service provider to which the home or business owner subscribes (a Monitoring Station) or a family relation/friend who agrees to look after the protected site during absence of its occupants. The control panel reports events by telephone to both kinds of responders.

Restore: When a detector reverts from the state of alarm to the normal standby state, it is said to have been “restored”. A motion detector restores automatically after detection of movement, and becomes ready to detect again. This kind of “restore” is not reported to the remote responders. A magnetic contact detector restores only upon closure of the protected door or window. This kind of “restore” is reported to the remote responders.

Sensor: The sensing element: pyroelectric sensor, photo-diode, microphone, smoke optical sensor etc. Signal Strength: The quality link communication between the system components and the control panel. Smoke Detector, Wireless: A regular smoke detector and a wireless PowerG transmitter in a shared housing. Upon

detection of smoke, the detector transmits its unique identification code accompanied by an alarm signal and various status signals to the control panel. Since the smoke detector is linked to a special fire zone, a fire alarm is initiated.

State: AWAY, HOME, AWAY-INSTANT, HOME-INSTANT, LATCHKEY, FORCED, BYPASS. Status: AC fail, low battery, trouble, etc. User Codes: The PowerMaster is designed to obey your commands, provided that they are preceded by a valid

security access code. Unauthorized people do not know this code, so any attempt on their part to disarm or defeat the system is bound to fail. Some operations, however, can be carried out without a user code as they do not degrade the security level of the alarm system. Zone: A zone is an area within the protected site under supervision of a specific detector. During programming, the installer allows the control panel to learn the detector’s identity code and links it to the desired zone. Since the zone is distinguished by number and name, the control panel can report the zone status to the user and register in its memory all the events reported by the zone detector. Instant and delay zones are “on watch” only when the control panel is armed, and other (24-hour) zones are “on watch” regardless of whether the system is armed or not. Zone Type: The zone type determines how the system handles alarms and other signals sent from the device.
