4. PROGRAMMING 4.1 General Guidance We recommend programming the PowerMax10-G2 on the work bench before actual installation. Operating power may be obtained from the backup battery or from the AC power supply. 4.2 Navigation This mode allows you to customize the control panel and adapt its characteristics and behavior to the requirements of the particular user.
Note: Installer Code should never be programmed as “0000”. Doing so will lock the user out of the installer menu! 4.3.2 Setting the Master Installer Code For PowerMax10-G2 with MASTER INSTALLER code, set a new INSTALLER code as described in section 4.3.1 "Setting a New Installer Code" and set the MASTER INSTALLER code as described in this section.
User Permission enables you to determine whether access to the INSTALLER MODE requires user permission. Access to the installer menu, in PowerMax10-G2 that has "User Permission" enabled (for example, in UK) is via the last menu in the user menu. This option can be changed, if necessary. Here you determine whether the access to the INSTALLER MODE requires user permission.

7. MAINTENANCE 7.1 Handling System Troubles Fault What it means Solution The control panel cannot configure or control i) Make sure the device is physically present. 1-WAY the device. ii) Check the display for device faults, for Battery consumption increases. example, low battery.
7.4 Fuse Replacement The PowerMax10-G2 has an internal fuse that has automatic reset. Therefore, there is no need to replace the fuse. When over current condition occurs, the fuse cuts off the circuit current. Upon fault current being removed for several seconds, the fuse is automatically reset and allows current flow through the circuit again.
