Housing

Opening

The Octalarm's inputs and outputs are located behind
the operating panel. Simply slide up the operating panel
to make connections:
• Slide the operating panel up to the click stop (1).
Do not use too much force when doing this. If the
alarm dialer doesn't slide open easily the operating
panel may be jammed and it will then be necessary
to find the cause of the jam first and sort it out. If
you don't do this you may damage the alarm dialer.

Releasing the retaining catch

In order to remove the operating panel completely, to
change the battery for example, it is necessary to
release the retaining catch first.
• On the rear of the operating panel there is a
small, triangular panel with a ridged zone that
can easily be felt.
• Pressing lightly on the ridged area (2) and sliding
the operating panel up further will cause it to
separate from the housing completely (3).
Take into account that the operating panel is
connected to the Octalarm's main printed circuit
board by a flat cable and a connector. Disconnect
this cable before setting the operating panel to one
side.
