Backup Battery Connection - Honeywell IntelliPath Series Installation And Setup Manual

Backup Battery Connection

The included battery (K14139) is used for backup in the event of power loss to the communicator.
It does not provide power to the control panel.
In ULC installations this battery is not connected, and all backup power is supplied by the control
panel.
 The battery can provide over 24 hours of system life in the event of a power failure.
 A programmable power loss message can alert the AlarmNet Control Center when system
power is lost (power loss messages are reported within 1-3 hours of actual loss).
 The communicator transmits a low-battery message (programmable) when the battery
reaches 5.7V ±5%, indicating subsequent messages may not be transmitted.
 The system shuts down when the battery falls below 5.1V, and radio transmissions are no
longer possible.
 If system power is restored before the communicator shuts down, a power restore message is
sent within 1-3 hours after power is restored, and the battery is recharged using the
communicator's built-in battery charger. If system power is restored after the communicator
has shut down, a power-on reset condition exists, the communicator initializes itself and the
battery will recharge.
Install the battery as follows, and refer to the Summary of Connections diagram at the end of this
document.
1. Place the battery inside the case back.
2. Snap the right side of the battery clip onto the inside of the case back and secure the left side
with the screw provided.
Do not plug the battery in until after you have powered-up the communicator.
WARNING!
Be careful not to damage the antenna mounted above the
battery. Do not bend up the battery tabs.
