1. INTRODUCTION

PowerMaster is a PowerG-enabled professional all-in-one wireless security, fire and safety system supporting advanced

The system consists of the PowerMaster-33 G2 control panel that does not include a built-in keypad and that operates
in conjunction with a wireless keypad display device (KP-250 PG2). The control panel accommodates all control
circuitry and operation software for a programmable 64-zone alarm system, while the keypad display unit enables the
installer and the user to enter their commands and provides visual and audible feedback.
