Summary of Contents for EPIC SAFETY aero-k

  • Page 1 Wi-Fi/Ethernet Alarm System Communicator Installation Guide...
  • Page 2 Aero-K uses 3 zones to monitor legacy systems for legacy burglary, fire, and panic alarms. Aero-K uses zone 1 and PGM 1 for keyswitch arming and disarming. Refer to Section 5 (PGM Output Functions) for information on the PGM multipurpose functionality.
  • Page 3 2.2. Aero codes Aero-K uses one master code (for the main user) and up to 40 user codes to arm and disarm the host control panel when keyswitch arming is used or if keybus connection is not used or available.

  • Page 4: Pre-Installation Recommendations

    • Always connect Aero-K to an approved power source and battery backup. 3.1. Cable length Using Station Z or CAT 5 type wire, Aero-K can be installed up to 1000 feet away from the alarm panel. For installations with over 1000 feet distance between the alarm panel and the device, use higher gauge wire(s) considering the guidelines below.
