1. Introduction

The Rascal Super is an electronic microprocessor controlled intruder alarm system. Its design
makes it simple to program and install. This allows the system to be tailored to the individual
users needs. Before attempting to program the system the engineer should be familiar with all
the features and options that are available .

2. System Planning

The Rascal Super is supplied with a factory set default configuration which allows the panel to
be used immediately without any additional configuration. Please check defaults for suitability.
The Rascal Super intruder alarm system consists of a main control panel and up to 3 remote
keypads. The main control panel should be out of sight but remain accessible for
programming or test. The engineer and end user should discuss and agree on the location of
any remote keypads fitted to the system. This should be agreed after full explanation of the
proposed entry/exit routes and any other system functions such as part guard, home guard,
chime or PA.
3. Mounting the Rascal Super Panel
(a) Remove the two cover screws and remove the cover
(b) Remove the three screws securing the PCB to the pillars (one screw is under the keypad
which also has to be removed)
(c) Place the control panel in the proposed mounting position and mark the 3 holes.
(d) Mount the control panel securely using the 3 mounting holes.
4. Mounting the Remote Keypads
(a) Having agreed the position(s) of any remote keypad(s) to be fitted. ( The keypads can be

(b) Remove the two cover screws and remove the lid .
(c) Mark the holes for the mounting position, two diagonal fixings are normally adequate.
(d) Screw the back box in the agreed position.
(e) Note the rear entry for cabling.
5. Wiring the Remote Keypad
